This is so sweet! I love the expression on the cat and the way the characters move.

I thought you'ed see something wrong with it. What's "easing"?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Easing is the speed up and slow down involved in movement. It's that lovely thing that makes animations more realistic and fluid.

Which is very difficult to do.

You'd be surprised. funnily enough, easing in easytoon is easy! *facepalms*
All you need to do is practice.

I guess also because it takes forever to get right, it gets boring.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Believe me, it doesn't take for ever. try this, move a pixel 1 pixel width, then two, then three, then 5, then 8, then back to 5, 3, 2, 1 and then stop it. This is the very basis of easing and its piss easy. just apply this to almost all movements and you'll be fine.

This might help! Just open it with easytoon if you have to.

Thanks. I guess I'm so eager to get my animations done, I overlook a few things.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Glad you realize that. A fast anim isn't always a good anim. Take your time, look over the frames constantly and focus on making sure all the basics are there.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you've got to admit it gets tedious altering every single frame.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yea but the end result is worth it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. At the beginning of my Crow Animation when it lands, there's nothing wrong with that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmmm *looks at anim again* nup sorry, minor easing issues there too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your obviously a perfectionist.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Unfortunately, but any other experienced easytooner would pick up on it too.

Your computer must be lagging.

Sigh, I'm not pointing out faults just to spite you, I just notice them out of habit.
You'll never get better at anything if you deny criticism. Unless the crit doesn't make sense or the person has no idea what their talking about all crit should be considered and thought over.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't deny criticism, it's just that it's all you come out with. When I see a reply from you I think "Oh, here it comes" You're never satisfied.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol believe me, I'm a hard guy to satisfy. If I see a good point I'll usually comment on it, but if there aren't any i can really do that now can I?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You can say that again. I could easy point out faults on your animations but I don't out of curtesy.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol you baka, dont you know I love getting crit? But be warned, I'm critical of the crit I receive.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That just goes to show you can't take criticism. If your going to call me an idiot, say it in English. You sound like a weirdo fan girl.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I love it when people point out mistakes in my animations because it means I can get better.
How ever taking crit from someone who doesn't even understand the basic concepts of animation is just annoying. (And believe me, I've had some really terrible people try too.)
Good criticism is pointing out flaws that can hold a artist back and allow them to work on what's wrong. For example; "The animation lacks easing it the **** part" or "Try to reduce the wobbliness of the lines".

See, now your making the common mistake of judging someone who DOES know about animation. I'm still learning it incase you haven't noticed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wait, if your still learning shouldn't you have said "DOESN'T"?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, because I know the basics of animation. I'm LEARNING more advanced stuff.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your not advanced until you've mastered all the basics, including easing. Once you can make an anim with acceptable easing, physics, smoothness and no resizing can should you move onto advanced techniques. And I'm not the only person who would tell you this, maybe you should post on an easytoon forum and find out for yourself.

Well, you can't please everyone. Your a perfect example of that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well I am a hard man to please.
(Hehehe . . .)
You really just need to practice your easing. When it come to animating, easing the the most important aspect. Most other techniques are derived from it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You can say that again
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It all boils down to lots and lots of practice. That or make an easing system.

I'm working on another animation. Have you heard of The Cliff?
