Anyone here done any animation? I tried my hand back in the day when I was still in a band. It's pretty primitive, but that was the idea. I'd love to see any one else's stuff. Zahbahloo: The Language of the Dead - YouTube  

I have actually. My sister is a Spanish teacher and I've animated some of her Spanish songs. ^_^

Great! Can you post your stuff?

The text is a link. ^_^

Oh, wait, I just realized you posted the link, Avery. Pretty nice stuff. Did you use After Effects to do this?

Lol, no. I don't have any kind of animation making programs, so I just used Photoshop and then posted the pics frame by frame into windows movie maker. :p

Avery, I used Windos Movie Maker too!  You did very good graphics.

Lol! I have learned to hate Windows Movie Maker with a passion... And thanks so much! Though I definitely made the drawings too small.

I know, things got pretty intense there for a sec. Poor little mouse. :'(

I took a small anamation class but don't know if i kept the things i made.

Matthaeus, if you can find it, it'd be great to see what you've done.

sadly i wasn't able to find them but i'll keep looking. i'm certain i saved them somewhere.

Wait, wait, wait... So this means... MHD cartoons? O.O

epicing drawing skills + epic anamation skills= best thing ever

Yes but I'm still only a beginner animator.

If anyone ever wondered how I can draw so fast. :~P

... Were you just hitting on End, Mizal and Berka? O.O

I was inviting them to a tea party! :~P

Well, I think I caught BZ giving you a look for a second there. ^_^

Awh, thank you so much! I really love it and hope I can make a stable career of it.

MadHatterDaughter, that's really good! Your talents are vast.

Thank you! It was and still is a lot of practice!!

We had to make up a character for class so I created a dorky alien that is easy to animate. She came to Earth intent on conquering the planet but fell in love with it instead. :~)

(I did animate a really rough short scene of the CYS western universe way back. Maybe I'll go digging for it.)

I want to SEE!!! ^_^

I've watched this so many times now. ^_^

I can't wait for the full-length feature film.

If you actually make an animated show, I could be a voice actor. In all honesy I'm amazing at changing my voice. And as i was watching i just imagined what everyon sounded like

Thanks, Mizal!

BerkaZerka, I'm glad you liked it!

Chris113022, I think you can do it. Most skills are developed. It's mostly a matter of sticking to it in spite of making less-than-stellar stuff. There isn't a writer on this site who hasn't written garbage they're embarrassed by.

I enjoy doing animatics for songs! I don't really feel comfortable sharing them here, though.
I use ms paint and the default video editor app for windows, so they're super simple.

bondogggle, if you ever feel comfortable sharing your animatics, it'd be great to see them.

It's not much, but sometimes I try my hand at making short gifs of historical events.
