Description I spent my Summer holidays working on an animation. My first animation. This is a frame from it, the actual thing wont be uploaded. I'm not happy with how it turned out, but i learnt a lot in the process and learnt a lot since then. I've put it on hiatus because I wasn't sure how to fix it and also because I lacked the time to work on it. I have come to the decision to start from scratch, I'm keeping the basic plot since I've already got voice actors to record lines for that but I've cut out a lot of the unnecessary bits. I'm pretty excited to start working on it again. I guess I'll share what I've learnt from the process and from listening to some advice from animators streaming. If you're making your first animation keep it short, a couple of seconds, dont be over ambitious like I was and then become overwhelmed. You have to learn the basics and build upon them. Secondly it doesnt have to look good, some frame might look weird but when played back actually work. I was only used to drawing and not animating so I drew each frame like a finished piece, the result was stiff and boring. Lastly even if you're unhappy with it upload it. I'm surely going to dislike mine at the end of it but I intend on following that advice.
