How Animation Can Save You from Programming - 2 views

  • mix of drawing some parts of the animation (like the legs or arms) and pupetting some other parts (like the face).

      I'd expect it to be easier the other way round.
  • If you look at the following bouncing ball, you’ll notice that the ball squeezes when it hits the ground, and stretches when it moves up. In the GIF on the right, the squeeze and stretch of the ball is much more exaggerated. Which animation is more pleasing to you?

      You can achieve the same effect using plain old procedural "math-driven" animation.
  • if you are doing the same scene as frame by frame animation, it gets a bit easier.

      And what if the artist decides to change the path later?

    Here are links to some anime sprite sheets -- more specifically, sprites from animes such as Bleach and Naruto (LOL). You could probably make a pretty cool fangame using these sprites, or just insert them as a NPC in your game or whatever.

  •  
    The idea of 3D modeling may sound new, but it has roots cartoon magazines, early-stage animations and simple electronic games people played in their childhood, somewhere in the '70s. And all readers (or viewers) dreamt those graphics could turn into reality.

    I think this site could be useful for all sorts of reasons. First of all, this particular page offers a way for characters to maybe move their mouth if they are talking, or move their legs while walking.

    There are tons of cool sprites here! Just check out the background section, for example: so many amazing bgs to choose from! I think this is a place where you can find ripped sprites or fan-made sprites from several games (I'm not sure which ones), but if you're looking for some anime-style sprites to incorporate, this is the place to go! :D The pixels themselves are great.

    This is a great website to create animated sprites and pixel art.
  •  
    I believe that this site is a good site for sprite editing because you can zoom in and add a LOT of detail to a sprite. You get a whole lot of colors to choose from, to create your character. The website has a pretty basic layout and their are the tabs on the left.
