      Actually, there are LOTS of problems in Flipaclip, like the lack of brushes and of the stabilizer. I mean, it is great, but it is really simple. I’d rather use Krita or export tons of png. files drawn on another programs (like MediBang, that is free) and export to a video editing program like Blender

    I use Krita. The large variety of brushes makes it really simple to create textures for you backgrounds, like if you want to add grass, clouds, water lines, a frickin mountain, etc, there's a brush for that. It works good for short animations, too.

    This video is so helpful! I just got my first drawing tablet so I can finally move on from Flipaclip and I was a little daunted by trying to find the right programs. Most of the big animators and artists I tend to see use Paint Tool Sai or Photoshop and Toonboom or Adobe Animate, but I'm only animating as a hobby, I'm not getting money from it so I can't really afford those. This video just lays everything out for you and shows how each of these apps compare to Adobe. Honestly I was a little shocked by how much they can do. Thanks for making this so much easier for us beginning animators 😊

    My journey towards digital art has been so daunting (along side so much life stuff) it hasn't really even started, sadly. I've recently acquired the tools I wanted to start with (laptop, drawing tablet), now I wud just like to find some like minded ppl to learn with/from so this transition from traditional art isn't so much like 'jumping into a blackhole'. Brad, Ur presentation (regardless of what the video pertaining) always has an uplifting feel to it, so I guess what my rant boils down to is: "THANX!"

    The only issue with free animation tools is that they normally lack a lot of features of the paid's ones.

But yeah, for determining if you really want to get into animating then free apps are great!

I was looking up something for my friend and your vid came up. Made me think maybe i should try animating again. Just to do something to kill time. So thank you for the idea and list of sodtware.

    I tried OpenToonz, and it was very confusing for me.
    1.) The tools are confusing.
    2.) I don't know how to change the texture of the brush.
    3.) I can't find the layers.
    4.) Whenever I draw on the paper, it first pixelates it and then draws it as a normal brush would.
    If anyone would tell me something about OpenToonz, then I'm open.

    • @3polygons
      @3polygons 5 лет назад +2

      Spine (the 60 bucks version), Sprite (maybe pre-order the Spriter 2, is quite promising), Moho (the cheap version, is VERY powerful).
      I'd go for those. That said. Someone with MOUNTAINS of patience (hello!) can do 100% professional animation with Blender, or PAP, or Synfig (or even combinations of those, if are nerdy enough). But you really need to be tough and patient. The reward is amazing.
      But, if prefer go for a perpetual license of 60 bucks rather than free and time consuming, those above are quite good deals (like Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer, ClipStudio Paint kind of deals). Very focused on games (bones, morphing, reusing parts of a same character, libraries of symbols, game engines export), while and am a huge defender of fully drawing and fully animating, not using bones and not abusing too much the tweening. You learn a A LOT more by fully drawing and fully animating (nothing is better than Disney's old stuff and the like, and those were made only with pen and paper. At least now u don't have to damage ur eyes with a bulb, the computer is good for that. Actually screens do heavily produce tired eyesight - trust me on this one!- but is a huge improvement in that matter compared to even a professional bulb).
      Consider that often those pro versions (usually one at 60, another at 300 bucks, is almost a market established thing... Cacani is an exception, 200 per year, or 17 per month, or 500 perpetual license. Imo only the perpetual makes sense (unless already getting strong clients, and project to be done in less than one year). You have full functional non expiring trial. But... 500 bucks is WAY too expensive.) are often mostly adding game engines exports, as there's where they can make more money. Just...the free or cheaper versions are often *way enough* for everyone else. Sometimes, even for games, as if not needed a game engine connection, a 640x480 export is way more than enough for a character sprite export. For animation in general such resolution limit for the whole frame is a no-way. So, it depends on what limitations are set for the cheapo version in each case. For pure animation, frame by frame, is not like you need anything else than PAP + Opentoonz, IMO. Maybe Synfig for more vector based stuff. Maybe Blender's 2D new capabilities or its 3D + toon render for the nerdy types.
