Tree Keys To Super Animation

I'm really good at animating and doing all sorts of cartoon work. I find that the animation is a talent that could easily put these people that have the motivation and desire to learn. It's just really that simple.

A lot of animation to come up and come to me for advice. It is clear that they really want to understand the nature of the movement and how to get good at it. I break it down into three simple steps. Here they are.

     * Get to know your technique. The way you move the brush or pencil is very important here. This is going to determine the quality of graphics.
     * Understand your medium. You must know what is the ability of your medium. In other words, know your limits.
     * Embrace your vision. Take on the challenge of getting what you're thinking down on paper.

Those are really the three most important tips I can give to a newcomer in the field of animation. I have found that this step is usually the person in the right direction since the beginning.
