Going back to Mid-February or March 2011... I was bored so went to find games in the internet... I found Stickpage.com I played some games and saw Chuck vs Alfa and thought it was a game... It was awesome, Very awesome... So I searched where this animation came from and learned about RHGs... Then I searched more to find the source of the RHG then I found Fluidanims.com... That was the time I started Animating.....

I started animating because of youtube, back when I was about 8, I used to watch alot of pivot animations, my favorite was stickfigure on crack.
then when I was 10, I sawa youtube channel called flyingpanda1990. I went on it, and thats how I knew hyun. then on one of hyun videos, he told us to go this website called fluidanims, and thats how I started animating

My dads a graphic designer and got all the adobe programs etc for free. Then i found flash and he told me to watch some tutorials (i was about 8-9) then i just messed around with it and watched stickpage.... then i made a login on the forum here and got an animation onto the elevators collab, so i think i was better than i thought :)

We had Adobe Flash on our computer, but I really never got a chance to learn it. So, I started a small animation, really crappy, then I saw Hyun's channel, then watched his tuts, and started getting into REAL animation.

I've been in to animation forever, starting with Don Bluth, Disney, Akira, pretty much anything that was available. But as far as my interest in stick animation goes I guess it started with the XiaoXiao animations. My real inspiration for flash is Korean team Sambakza of 'there she is' fame. That also probably explains why I never post anything as I'm constantly striving for the quality of the authors mentioned XD

My primary did a project with stop motion. I did research on how to do animations at my own home and found pivot.
This is my first animation ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jH0hGA5FNaU&feature=relmfu

Munch vs flax

then i went to a thing I found a long time ago- a stick animator game.
said fuck that
found the forums, couldn't post because of an error- got pivot and fiddled
found a news post by crazy jay or someone talking about a stream or something, it was about a week old
went there- the stream or whatever was down- but there was a chat.
I told the people there i was starting to animate on SP, and they flipped on me.
They told me about FA, and how (their words) "All of the good stuff was made by FA, sp has terrible animators and a shitty community"
Heh- I believed them at the time- and I couldn't even post so it looked dead. Signed up on FA, someonegave me flash portable, had a guy named HYmaster make me weapons for my rhg.
Joined his clan
left animating during the move
came back
and here i am!

I saw Xiao xiao on a site called apelsin.nu around 2009 and I wanted to make that too, and thus started my journey in animation. c:
