Concerning Animation

Added 2016-09-27 12:57:17 +0000 UTC

There are a few options to consider when animating, as well as some changes to my approach on them.

The options are:

Stick to the comics, and animate where it's appropriate and release the animation in GIF form.
Do entire comic panels and animation in Flash.
Create the comic panels and animation in Clip Studio Paint, and inset them into Flash.

Here's a quick test of the engine I'll be using for the animation.Please note that the actual animation size will be bigger.(Use arrows keys to navigate)

So far I'm leaning on creating the animation and comic panels within Clip Studio Paint, then importing them into Flash. Not to worry though if you're concerned about finding the animation within the Flash file to keep, I'll also export them in GIF form as well.

Going this method, this ensures that the drawings are of good quality, and also less headache as well, since Flash drawing tools absolutely suck.

For animations, I'll be keeping them short, 8 to 10 frames long. Although short, there will be various animations within a file, as to not keep it short of content.

I was actually considering having long, drawn out animations, but that is far too time consuming, especially when wanting to tell a short story.

Expect some more updates soon.

Oh, and about that Skoon butt animation, that'll get done sometime, and I'll share with ya the final product. It's not supposed to be a complete thing, but it's good practice, so why not.

But yeah, if you've read through all that, lemme know what ya think. I'm sure you guys will be happy with what will be coming out.
