• Learning How to Draw w...
In this video, I show you how I learned to animate from no experience. Using simple, practical, and repeatable techniques, I was able to achieve a level of animation I only dreamed of. You can follow the exact same steps as I did to achieve similar or even better results. 💪🏼
In my last video, I learned how to draw in 7 days with no experience. Taking my drawing skills I just learned, I applied it to animation to create what you are seeing today. I couldn't even believe that I was able to reach a good level of animation in such a short period of time.
This is my very first time doing animation. If you have any tips that you would like to share, post it in the comments! It won't only be helpful for me, but for anyone else trying to improve their animation skills.

I went to school for 3 years to learn animation, failed school because of burn-out and now, 3 years later, I'm back at the beginning, trying to re-learn everything almost from scratch. Thank you for this video, it made me take some actual time to practice and try again! 😄

I pushed hard to get the degree in 3d animation visual effects and failed to get a good break into the industry. Burned out. Left for IT work. 10yrs later. Made really good money but started feeling pull back towards animation. I have friends who are interested in animation too so the last couple years we've been playing with different animations styles and making stuff. Honestly having the artistic freedom made it appetizing again.

As someone whos always liked picking up new skills and took the position that “a jack of all trades” is more admirable than a master of one, its very obvious that you have an excellent mentality when it comes to picking up new skills and applying the proper methods in learning them. You know that learning a new hobby isnt just the fun you’re having but learning it correctly so you can have even more fun once you’ve established the basics. Brilliant video, amazing improvement and admirable as hell. Such a good job

Yeah, the human being developed to be capable of doing that. I know basic programming, modelling, animating, computation, engineering, mechatronics, physiology, psychology, astrophysics, electronics, 4 languages, a bit of metereology, the mechanisms of a vehicle and how to employ the use of firearms. You can say some of these things are useless, but they're just slots on the inventory of knowledge. Most of them i've learned out of pure curiosity, and went a bit deep into what I knew. Your memory haves a estimated "storage" limit, that's when the neurons cant absorb anymore complex or intricate information, but it's extremely unlikely and nearly impossible to cross that limit, but as long as your mind still in the state then make some good use of it. Accumulation of information will eventually turn into general knowledge. Dont let blockouts inhibit you from reaching the apex of yourself. The key to consume all of this content and archive it mentally from memory is being genuinely interested and focused on what you learn, to process each tidbit of information consciously and assure you know it before proceeding to the next part. Hell, Galileo Galilei was a polymate and had knowledge on several different academic topics.

Ive always wanted to learn how to draw and animate and over the past few years ive picked up some basic skills from each area. My drawing is mega shakey though, and even though i understand a lot about the animating process, not being able to draw very obviously impedes the process. These videos honestly shocked me, because it showed me that it doesnt take weeks, months, years to learn how to draw, it just takes dedication and an open mind. Ive been practicing drawing as of late already, but this has inspired me to work at it a lot more, thank you for these crazy videos

I got inspired this week and got some uh old versions of software to use and pulled out a Huion tablet from a bin. I never used it with said softwares before and it works soooo well!! I used to animate when I was in middle school and I think I'm gonna take it up again now. I always have funny poster or meme ideas and it'll be fun to actually start making things instead of having ideas and then forgetting. I think overall I just want to keep making stuff. Learn more audio production, some photoshop, some Resolve etc. In tandem with IT school I'll be a mofo in a few years and in a better position to start building side clients doing odds and ends.
