Augestein Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 So I've always liked doodling things and drawing little pictures, but lately the idea of doing some animations has been floating through my head as of late. Does anyone know of any good animation software that's not an arm and a leg but still provides decent quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circleseverywhere Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I use Aseprite, it's tailor made for pixel animation and it's open source so you can build your own version for free if you don't want to pay the (reasonable) price.

Augestein Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hmm... Yeah, I've heard of Aseprite, but can it actually handle tablet style drawings like say... A cartoon as well? I know it can do pixels, but I was curious on that end as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamia Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) chances are, software designed around animation that also provides drawing tools is going to be half-assed on both if you have a drawing program already, it isn't too difficult to derive animations by just utilizing layer opacities while drawing once you have your frames you can use a simple gif animator to throw it together if it's not complex Edited January 19, 2017 by Lamia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augestein Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 I do have a drawing program. I might try that, but I think I found a couple to try out on my own. I might try to give them a whirl . The ones that have drawing tools and animation are really expensive and I don't have the animation experience to shell out that much.

Kyne Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 You could try Adobe Flash. I've been using Macromedia Flash 8 for years now an it's been very serviceable and has tablet support. The newer ones have only improved apparently. The only drawback is that it actually costs quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes with many tools which work as freehand drawing. It is compatible with drawing tables. It comes with multi-touch support for wacom tablets. You can also see the difference of 2D and 3D animation. Edited February 13, 2017 by Pamelatibb07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
