Animation Tutorial: How I Animate(or used to now I have Toon Boom so.... yeah)

Well this is how I animate! If you have any questions just ask me!

Programs I used:
*Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0(or just use Paint or any drawing program)
*Sony Vegas Pro 8.0(Or use Windows Movie Maker or other video programs)

I drew with a Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch Tablet. You do not need a tablet though.

Just a tip you might wanna add:png saved files look better than jpg files.

@Mousepelt23 Yeah I know. I don't use this method anymore because I have an actual animation program now called Toon Boom Studio 6.0

can ya do a vid where u teach us how u do like lip sync or get like spongebob audio? also one where u dont make a moving animation but like change the frame to somethong else for example 4 ur vid happy bday sail it changed from a cake to a present then to nyan cat ice :3! how u do that?! plz reply

[IceArtz]

@blingbeatgurl I'm not exactly sure how to teach lip syncing and I don't quite undersand what you mean by how yo change the frame to something else because all you have to do is draw the new picture and put it beside the previous frame I guess. Not sure how to explain that it's pretty simple haha

This is SO EPIC .

But I don't have any tabelt and I have normal photoshop (CS4 not elemnts)

And it's hard to draw in the computer.

What should I do ?

[IceArtz]

@Mrspiplupi If you are able to make straight and curved lines then just do that for the drawing. I never really started animating till after a got my tablet. Also, you could always animate on paper, although that takes much longer than on the computer.
