Beginner Animation Tutorial (Traditional, Toon Boom, Flash)

[MelleCurtiss]

i have the same problem like topknot01, my brush is pixelated v.v and when i restart the pc nothing changes ._. and maybe it sounds dumb but where can i change the render settings to h.264? ^-^'

When I hit S to make a new frame the previous one is not shown in red making it very hard, how do I fix this

[TortioseBox]

What button do you push to get the new frame?

[dudegoon1]

@TortioseBox

for a new frame, go to the bottom of the screen (where it shows frames) and press on a new frame.

When using shortcut keys it's customary to let everyone know what you're doing on the keyboard so they can follow along.

[sikereemedy]

[CrazyToonTV]

i have toon boom animate pro is it done different?

[WidowsPeakStudio]

@CrazyToonTV now this is the basic way that will work with any program or even a flip book! the only thing different are hot keys that I mat have said.

[topknot01]

how come every time i use the brush whatever outline i make is pixelated?

[WidowsPeakStudio]

@topknot01 This has happened a couple times to myself. I'm not sure if its because if you are low on ram but restarting my computer solved the problem... Was it pixelated when you export it? if so change the render settings. h.264 is a great compression setting.

[topknot01]

@WidowsPeakStudio no it happens just when im drawing with the brush or the pen, the pixelation goes away after ive published or converted it, but because its the outline has this little pixelation it can make it really hard to see what the hell im drawing

[WidowsPeakStudio]

@topknot01 sorry I'm Stumped. I have no idea... sorry

[Lumenatra675]

@topknot01 I suddenly have the same problem and I'm trying so hard to find out how to change it back to being smooth lines instead of pixelated view :( Did you ever figure it out?

[topknot01]

@Lumenatra675 no sorry still have the same problem ;(

though i have heard some of the later versions give you better options for controling the brush strokes.

Let me know if you will be dealing with scanning drawings into Toon Boom Studio 4.5. I appreciate your simple and helpful lectures. As I feel the user interface is the main challenge for myself when it comes to using software. Your audio is also well done; no fancy music or noise so I can learn.

[WidowsPeakStudio]

@nickfurlano Thanks for the suggestion. I don't actually have a scanner (believe it or not!) if I do get one I will for sure do one since people ask me how to do this a lot.

Thanks for your reply!

Great tutorial! I just can't make the drawings steady.

[DiDolRuChagi]

Please tell me how do this. When I try to Copy the ball to the next frame, It puts the ball into the beginning position, and when I go to look at the previous frame, the ball is in the same position as the next one. In other words, The ball is in the same spot throughout the entire animation even if I try to change it. Lke in your video, my ball doesnt move, it stays in the same position throughout.
