Hey thelufias, I need you to pin this thread so I can find it easily and start posting the tutorials and such.

Thank you

Hey Thelufias, can a post be pinned to a top of a thread, like the sticky's are done on the boards?

This looks interesting and feel encouraged to see where this goes. I'm interested mostly in Daz but the others should be good too.

Are you going to include about the dynamics of stretch and squash?


I went through classical animation through Sheridan College many years ago and the first thing they teach is the importance of stretch and squash to make the animation a bit more realistic.

I recently saw a video about Stretch and Squash when it came to doing 2D animation, so I actually know what you mean...lol I am not sure how it applies to 3D since I have only seen it referenced for 2D

...

I have never take a course, what I know I learned on my own and all with free programs. My biggest hurdle with be with voices, though in my introduction video I state that I will be learning some things along with the viewers. Just finishing the first script to get my intro up on youtube, have 5 other video's with scripts started. I do scripts so I don't have to try to remember what to say and to reword so the video's are not too long. Would have had these up a long time ago but with current health issues and two computers dying on me, I have started a bit late...lol My son just got a new computer a couple weeks ago that is powerful enough to use the latest Daz and the new, still in beta for way to long, Blender 2.8. I know someone will be so proud of me when I show him the Blender video's...lol He's been trying to get people to use that program for so long.

...

I also mainly use Daz, I include other software due to fact people have preferences. My main focus is to show you can do animation without spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on software, hardware and classes. Also my interest lies in 3D animation. Although 2D is the tradition, particularly with anime, times are changing. I hope to get one of those drawing tablets since 2D should not be overlooked or forgotten. The two types are very compatible on many levels and I think will be for some time, since many refuse to see 3D as anime, preferring the tradition method. In fact they are only now beginning to slowly accept anime as something not strictly related to Japan, though is a major battle to convince them.

Look forward in seeing what gets added here.

My son is having a problem setting up the software, wanted to try something new and its frustrating him to no end, now I have to convince him to go back to tried and true and soon cause I am waiting for him to get it done.
