Alright, look, this animation wasn't THAT bad, you gotta get that bad resizing out. It's super wobbly and It's ruining the whole animation. I hope your using Onion skinning. You also need to know the concept of easing

It looks nice for an Anime style sort of eye.. what happened to the nose there?

Alright, I'm guessing this is sort of an effects test.. You have to work on the basics before you go on to advanced stuff, do some walking, punching, etc. tests.

The stick can bend pretty low, huh? If you want an animation to look good, you need to make it atleast move realistically.. you know, If you see an amazing animation but the stick has 41290 joints on hes leg, then the leg will move like he is an alien or some shit. and that will be nasty.

Same thing about the effects I wrote up there n' shit..

No problem.

So, there's a couple of things you need to work on:

- Easing
- Basics
- Onion skinning
- (after you've gotten the hang of the basics) Effects

Things you DON'T wanna do:

- Save some random animation you found on the net, and post it in a forum saying you created it
- be a noob
- be a troll
- eat junk food

That's all you need to know my man, now you practice like a bitch and I hope to see you in the future.

Those were examples of what not to do in this forum, and about the 41290 joints thing, I just ment that you gotta keep the stick's movement as best as you could do, and not make him bend so low, or kick too high.. you know those kind of things.

Oooh you got skill! If you reduce the head resizing and add more easing you'll be able to post in the main forum straight away.

Ill Get Better Eventually

Since Theres Not Too Many Easytoon Tuts Out There I Look At The Flash Tutorials. I think That easytoon and flash kinda look the same so I go there. And For easing I refer to the pivot section.... :D

To Moch: Great movement! While it may have been intentional, theres
some morphing in your animation. Otherwise it looks nice and smooth.
Perhaps try some different "camera" angles? I myself am planning on doing
some in upcoming work. And thanks for the easing in Pivot bit I'll check
that out.

While I doubt this is the best place to start (with 388 pages its hard to
believe I'll get anyone's attention), I'll follow the rules for now. Heres my
first animation:

Hope y'all enjoy, comments/criticism are very appreciated.

Well its however you look at it. I meant to have him looking up to the sky,
hand over his eyes but I suppose those are much funnier anyway. I'm glad
you like it, look forward to more.

wow jack your pretty good. my only advice would be to keep your particles around longer. Oh and stop posting in beginners.

And moch, you really need to reduce the resizing and wobbliness. But good effort on the length!
