Hey friends!

It’s Meg here for TUTOR TUESDAY! Today is part one of drawing trees. I’ll do a tutorial on painting trees next time! This was a recommended tutorial, and if you have any tutorials you’d like to see just send em in here or at my personal! Have fun, keep practicing, and I’ll see you next week!

I get asked a lot for tips with coloring black people, so i put together a little tutorial! (and bumps my kofi if you found this helpful)

[atalienart]

Maybe it isn’t the best drawing but I just wanted to show you how I achieve some effects. I usually draw lanscapes from life so this is the quickest way to get what I need. It’s always best to do colour studies to actually learn how everything works but if you want to draw a cloud… :) hope it’s helpful! Also, thanks! :) (open in a new tab because it’s so blurry like this :/)

When you make an animated film, you end up making A TON of drawings.  A lot of those drawings are just to help describe how something is constructed or how it should move.  Those drawings can get boring.  So to keep it fun, the Zootopia drawings got weirder and weirder.  Here’s some mildly weird ones.

1. Ah Fai was a chief animator for McDull’s animated features. He’s super cool. Ultimate senpai. 

2. Previous post on breakdowns right here 

Some thoughts on acceleration and force

I presented this in the order of how I slowly understood the trick of delivering force - first an abstract concept of impact taught by Ah Fai, then a more complicated discovery on the acceleration pattern, last back to a more abstract concept of breakdowns. 

Like I’ve previously stressed, 2D animation is everything but one single approach. There’s no one rule that rules them all, but interchangeable ideas with math, or physics, or music, etc. There’s no “perfect” animation either, but what is perceived as organic and dynamic. E.g., using the Fibonacci numbers to animate didn’t bring me a perfect animation! On the other hand, a tiny change in the pattern could already make the feeling of force so much more powerful. 

Not so much of a tutorial than a personal experience. I hope you find this interesting hahaha

This advice is helpful.

Tezuka said much of the same! This is the great advantage anime has over Disney-style animation– tons and tons of frames make thing look very smooth and pretty, but completely removes the sense of genuine IMPACT from action sequences. They’re not as snappy! Watching a frame-by-frame of a Bruce Lee flick, you’ll see a move executed in very few shots.
