  • good 2d cartoon animator to have in skillset

    ive boarded out an idea for a friends music, it involved some cartooning. could just go more cut out animation with AE, but maybe adding a new trick to the mix might be cool. any ideas for what software out there that does cool keyframable shape animations that could output video. does flash render video? would that make sense to learn since its a good one to know? learning curve? thanks

    Toon Boom is apparently the standard, check out Moho as well, Plastic Animation Paper, Bauhaus Mirage… You can export an image sequence from Flash and composite it into video in AE or elsewhere. Flash is certainly a good one to know, the other ones IMHO are more specialized – if you don’t do 2D for a living your time may be better spent with a 3D app.
