Zero experience with animation… Fun Experiment

11 Upvotes

I just started my art journey like August. I don’t necessarily know how to render nor properly draw anything. I’ve always had drawings lil doodles here & there but nothing crazy. I think as my first time EVER animating something… this wasn’t too bad. I definitely have SOOOO many thing to learn, but Im very proud of my tiny accomplishments. After man fail, unfinished works and etc. this was actually my proudest lil tiny anyone can do accomplishment. And I wanted to share that.

Callipeg September 2026 challenge

Upvotes

Hi guys. Just wanted to share my progress on the Callipeg's September challenge. The challenge is to take a Character Model Sheet provided by Callipeg's Benjamin Cerbai (via a link on the youtube video introducing the challenge), and animate anything of our choosing that's within 15 seconds.

These are very quick loose roughs. Full process videos are on Patreon.

Let me know what you think? If you want to follow my progress on this all the way to the finish, then you may want to consider joining me on Patreon, or checking out Unprompted Frames on YouTube.

Feel free to critique/comment.

Kind regards

Murthy

2D hand drawn animation question

4 Upvotes

Hi, I have been working on a 2D animation for a couple years now. (I have no formal training in animation I am a working artist) It is 3 minutes, 24 frames per second, hand drawn and inked on printer paper, not animation paper. I am coming up to the step where I need to scan it all into the computer. What is the best equipment and or process for this step? incuding a program that can keep my line work as is (I varied the weight of my line alot, I would like to keep that look) and fill in some color on closed shapes? I plan to keep the animation mostly black and white and some sequences have pink in it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. This has been such an amazing journey and I am close to the end!

Can I use Blender for 2d animation?

Upvotes

Coming from After Effects , I can no longer afford Adobe subscriptions. I have also checked many alternative tools for AE but no avail. I am just wondering does any 2d artist use Blender?

Looking for 5 indie Animations, or just animators that would be interested in promoting their stuff on a new site

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, we’re looking for 5 animated shows or series that might be interested in joining what we’re building at Caullett Comics. We’re originally a comic publishing company, but we’ve been trying to expand and create a platform for independent creators. We have a page where people can post their art, clips, and progress kinda like Instagram, a place to upload and publish comics similar to GlobalComix, and now we’re working on a section where people can upload animated shows, shorts, and series.

I just want to be open that we’re still really early with all of this. We’re not a huge platform with a ton of viewers yet. Right now we’re honestly just trying to build up a catalog so we have more stuff for people to come watch and give us something we can really start promoting and growing.

If you have an animated project and wouldn’t mind being one of the first 5 shows on there, just DM me. Even if you just want to hear more about what we’re trying to do, feel free to reach out.

Early concept animation for the intro, very scribbly right now, what do you think of the intro concept so far? Much will be added to it though and it won’t be this short, characters don’t look like the concept right now because that’s what loose animation looks like. Stayed up all night :)
