I'm about four videos in now but this is exactly what I've been looking for! Devon is a great communicator, super-organized and logical, and he paces his information in a way that a newbie like me can feel like I'm getting a handle on this stuff as I go along. I can't recommend Devon's channel highly enough for anyone that's new to Adobe Animate!! Thanks Devon!!
I'm a TVPaint guy, but I had to use Animate on a couple projects last year. I really like the ability to animate with vector lines, but coloring was very finicky. Pros and cons to every program.
Hey I am a student and I study design but I wanted to try some animation for a while now so this video really helped me! I have a monthly adobe subscription thank you for sharing your thouights on their programs!
thank you so much for this clear video, I was doubting to use adobe animate at first because I rarely hear this from other people, but I guess I might try using this before starting on the other animation software
Thank you Devon! Your videos have been super helpful. I’m teaching myself animation and your videos have been super helpful. Do you have any fun project ideas/suggestions for beginners such as myself?
That's great to hear, thanks! This might be too easy for you, but my first animation project was just to make a character blink. Making a character 'come alive' for the first time is a magical experience!
Thank you for being clear and concise without any overly loud annoying background music. Only thing I would say that would make this better is, slow down about 10% when you are talking, just a little too fast. This video is 10/10 still, would recommend.
I haven't watched this video, but I was convinced by the way you had explained exporting PNG sequence in Adobe Animate with alpha channel in one of your video. .. [a few seconds later] .. Glad I'm here and saved your Adobe Animate CC playlist.
Hi there. So, after seeing this and some of your other tips videos recently, I can identify myself as someone who's been wanting to learn animation on Adobe Flash years ago and eventually wanted to try other softwares, like Clip Studio Paint and Toon Boom for animation. By the way, I recently graduated from digital animation last year, so I might as well get started with the animated content.
Hello Davon and congratulations for these videos, you are an excellent teacher (this is very rare on the internet), and it is a pleasure to watch your videos. I am a french freelance illustrator and animator, I have been using Animate for 20 years (Flash Macromedia etc...) and I do not find any equivalent in terms of simplicity, speed (zero calculation time etc...) and range of tools... I just regret that Adobe does not make real updates and does not give the attention it deserves to this magnificent software. At the end of the video you talk about problems and bugs on Animate but apart from a few minor bugs I don't really see what you're talking about... what are you thinking about?
Im a simple man > I see a small creator > I see he wants to help people > I respect this creator I've already commented and liked because algorithm likes it Im a happy man (2)
You mentioned animate gives you that "flash look" and less hand drawn look. What program(s) would you recommend if you wanted to retain the hand drawn/textured look?
Phineas and ferb, Powerpuff girls are done with toon boom harmony, like most big productions for tv shows and cartoon movies. (simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Rick and Morty, bob's burgers, animaniacs, King of the hill, sponge bob squarepants, Looney tunes back in action, My little pony the movie, Mulan II, Jungle Book 2, Klaus, big mouth, paradise pd, inside job, etc etc etc etc) Some shows started with Flash (e.g. the pilot, or season 1), but quickly went to toon boom for more pleasant bone system (with deformations), z depth, better organisation, better brushes and precision and the nodes system. toon boom harmony a defacto choice for a reason
Hi Devon, I've been animating for a couple years using Adobe Animate, but have been looking to get that 'natural hand-drawn' look rather than the crisp vector style. Do you have any recommendation for other programs that might work to help achieve this, or any other alternatives? (I think TV paint is the only one I have heard that has it - perhaps you know more :) Thanks!
Hey this is a great video! finally some examples, i couldn't find anything... thank you! just a question though, how do you know all those great animations were created with Adobe animate? is this for sure?
I've only included animations that I'm 90% sure were created in Adobe Animate! Either based on my experience working on the show, interviews with the creators, or information listed on official websites. It's worth keeping in mind that sometimes a show changes software during production. So you might find that Season 1 was made in Adobe Animate, season 2 in another software, the special edition movie in another, and so on Hope that answers your question!
Would you mind uploading a series of tutorials of Adobe Animate CC with your REAL art work demo? For example, they are like a short frame-by-frame REAL art work
Thank you!! I'm a beginner and this is the software I'm currently using to learn but I think my style doesn't really fit the program since I want a more "hand-drawn texture look" (quoting you) TvPaint is more fitting for that, right? Will you do a video of TvPaint?
Yes, it's easier to get the hand drawn look right out of TVPaint. It had slipped my mind, but perhaps I'll see if I can put a TVPaint video together soon!
Nobody probably even remembers the early 2000s Comedy Central / Adult Swim gems… but shows like “ China, Illinois “ & “ Ugly Americans “ were also done with Flash/AA 👏
Hi, I have seen all your videos in 3 days. Could you please show or demonstrate one video how you are doing the animation cartoon which you have shown in this video. Atleast some character walking and moving same time. Thanks in advance
Great Job! Thank You. One thing I wonder about is layering time lines of animations. I want to do the quality of "Toon Sandwich (RUclips), and maybe this is the program?".. Thanks again for your time, support and consideration!
I'm looking for the right software to make not only animated but also INTERACTIVE educational worksheets. Something that I can say, for example, if the student moves object A to location B, then action C happens. Is Adobe Animate appropriate or which app would work better for a more game like result?
Hi Anngelina, Adobe Animate can be used to create interactive content but it helps to know some ActionScript (the coding language that Adobe Animate uses). I think there are some built in ActionScript snippets that you could use though
Please tell me how I can get rid of Recovered file in animate cc.... When I make some changes in animate cc file, a new file named RECOVER bla bla bla is made automatically... It bothers a lot... I want to make changes in the existing file... Don't want another file
I've got a Adobe Animate playlist that starts from the veeeery basics! You can find it on my channel, and here's a direct link: ruclips.net/p/PL40CCm7kKzr4aL4tPfERT9bI9mTtRjMtW
In Photoshop, I get use to animated zoom by holding ctrl, alt and dragging the pen, but in CC animate I cannot use that function, could you help me please?
Adobe animate is the most confusing piece of software I've ever tried. It's been 3 years and I simply do not know how to draw ANYTHING on that software. In Adobe illustrator I can make anything, but in animate the stupid "object drawing" has completely crushed my confidence in learning how to draw in the software. Toggling object drawing on/off changes the settings between the two so much that I feel so confused to the point of hurting myself by repeatingly smashing my desk !!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@@devonkong not really. I used to use flash about 20 years ago and wanted to get back into animation, just bought a subscription to animate. So I guess just the basics and take it from there.
As far as I know, Adobe Animate is as lightweight as it gets while still being useable. Most other softwares would require upwards of 4GB RAM and even a GPU
@@ananmohamedelsaiid8267 those two are in different categories (you can't really draw in either of those). But even disregarding that, they're both pretty hardware intensive. After Effects needs to render, and Character Animator uses motion capture
Is this user friendly in the sense that an 8 year old could use it? I currently have an 8 year old who uses flipa-clip to animate but is looking to expand his knowledge and content. 🤔 wondering if it's worth paying the monthly subscription for him.

You are just so underrated....you should be on top.. i saw your tutorials and now its fun animating.. loved it❤️❤️❤️

you can slow down any video under settings. It slows the video and audio
Awesome video! would love to see a toon boom vid, maybe even a zbrush one? ❤️
Thanks! I've only dabbled with ZBrush, but ToonBoom is definitely on my todo list 💪🏼
Maybe also microsoft paint one?
I just got adobe animate, curious to see where I can go from here. Your playlist and storytelling style have my attention

You mentioned animate gives you that "flash look" and less hand drawn look. What program(s) would you recommend if you wanted to retain the hand drawn/textured look?
TVPaint!
I personally have for a long time, because of Animate CC assets and the basic timeline and interface.
I LOVE this! This has helped me so much, thank you Devon!
I can see a great amount of potential in you. This video was quite insightful.
Thanks ✨

i was looking for something that gives a raster/ handdrawn feeling to the animation, can u recommend something other than animate cc?
Check out TVPaint!
I opened up a new project and deleted the area where you "paint" the soft and I don't know how to make it co back!! Lol
Keeps you creating ;)
Can we do 3d animation in adobe animate
Greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷
Greetings to Turkey 👋🏼
Thanks. Great advise.
Whats the best raster based 2d animation soft?
Nice video. Just found your channel. Can you do more animation videos (adobe animate). Perhaps tutorials.

@@devonkong not really. I used to use flash about 20 years ago and wanted to get back into animation, just bought a subscription to animate. So I guess just the basics and take it from there.
@@devonkong actually just thought of something. Best formats/settings to create animation for RUclips.

I made a feature length movie using Adobe Animate. It's called CAPTAIN VIDYUT. Look for it on You Tube.
is there another software to use apart from adobe? providing the same or better tools with less laptop requirements?
As far as I know, Adobe Animate is as lightweight as it gets while still being useable. Most other softwares would require upwards of 4GB RAM and even a GPU
@@devonkong adobe after effects? Adobe character animator?
