press that 5 ;D


Since my first tutorial was so well recived I decided to make another one and after several dificulties I bring you the Speed Animation Tutorial, with several nice features:

-Arrowkey navigation for easy reading
-Voiced text for the even lazier readers
-Videoclips for better demonstration
-Alot more content than the last one (~13-20min of reading)
-More touch-buttons
-A very awesome EASTEREGG!

------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE tell me if you find any bug in the navigation or so so I can fix it, I'd also like to get some feedback on how hard it was to find the easteregg or if it was just too easy, did you find it on purpose or it sorta just found you?

awesome tutorial is awesome.

Btw, on the looped background part, here's a tip to increase fluidity of movement so the illusion of the background is increased.

If you just looped the BG after making it, then there will be a breif but horrifically noticeable blip in the animation where the movieclip stays at the same position, (the end and start of the clip respectively) and breaks the fluidity of motion and jerks the veiwer back into the real world.

So when you have finished making the loop, remove the last keyframe, and test the clip. You'll notice the difference.

I recognised quite a few methods I used in the past :D
It was great to see that these are actually used methods by other people. And I learned some details for the backgrounds.
I may know most of this, but I find it very well explained <3<3
the voice is a REALLY great add-on, makes it very interactive, since people don't like textwalls <3

i personally think it would've been nice if it just had BGM instead of voices.
you could make that an option!

I really needed that second method of moving the animation! I've seen people use it and it never occurred to me that I could use the free transform tool. I've been doing frame-by-frame so far, and I do love the way it looks, but at this point in my animations, free-transform tweening might actually look better.

This was organized so well. Thank you very much for showing us how to do these things!!
