Hey guys! I've been getting into animation recently and I thought I'd check out some of the free programs since animation programs can be so pricey. @ - @ I'm mad annoyed that Adobe raised the price on their app subscription. Oh also I recorded the voiceover for this one before the Friday video which is why it sounds like I'm suddenly sick again. :>
Thank you!!
Oh, Okie, I was worried that you'd gotten ill again, good to see that you're okay
Don't know if you know this or not, but Krita is now for Mac first off, second off it actually has animation within it as well. 😃
Bless your soul

thank you❤
@@TwistedRagdoll yeet I'm using flipaclip too and I 100% agree 😤👌
hahah,yeah,i need it lmao,to you too btw
This means alot, thanks!
you can also animate on fire alpaca even though its kinda hard
edit: You can make gifs and animations. but to make animations you just need to save all the frames and you need to put them in a program like movie maker
daisy doge It’s extremely limited if you only want to use FireAlpaca’s resources. I’m pretty sure you can only make gifs.
NicFlic i think you can animate in it too, Scotch (the yt) animates on it i think..?
If you use a mp4 compiler, yeah. However, it doesn't have any features for animation beyond onion skin.
I do all of my animations on firealpaca, it took a little practice but I still love it 😁 I do lots of MAP parts and animation memes with it, the program isn't limited to gifs if you know how to edit with other programs
Oof, I just use FlipaClip
the intro-
*in a very light tone voice* hey everybody its lavender towne
*literally one second later* **puberty**
yes
Pencil 2D also has multiple keyboard shortcuts for tools such as: "E" for eraser, "N" for pencil and "O" for onion skins.
@@formidability5631 ??? Please elaborate
Is there on and off option of onion skins?
@@Da.Liar-Pig Hey, I havent used it in like 6 months and forgot everything, you can check google
For color fills in GP that palette on the right has your materials or line colors, that grey solid is a fill. You can add solids by adding a new material and changing the alpha of the line to 0 and fill to 1. I know it’s nuts but once you start to get used to it it becomes amazing. Make sure you do fills on a separate layer, layers are in the pencil palette. Also scroll mousewheel on the key frame window will “Zoom” in so you can grab key frames easier. Hold down shift to select multiple key frames. Oh and you can change the opacity and thickness of a line even after you inked everything. Nice video!
Thank you for the help!!!!! 🙏 I thought I had good instincts with new programs but GP threw me for a loop at every turn haha
@@LavenderTowne It took me about a week to get comfy with Blender 3D, so I guess it's just a feature? But it does have a lot of great tools once you've figured out what goes where.
LavenderTowne as hard as it is now, it’s literally 1000x easier then the old version of blender 2.79. They are also constantly updating and refining. 2.80 is still a beta!
@@LavenderTowne Blender 2.80 beta:
[File > Recover Autosave...] takes you to your temp folder that stores blender files that you opened or were using (that you didn't save). Does not store undo history.
You can manage these backups in the Edit >> Preferences (System/Files tab)
In the timeline/dopesheet with the keys, press ctrl+select (left or right click) to select multiple keyframes on either side of the current frame indicator-line.
Press B to box select keyframes.
O to toggle proportional editing, which works in this window, as well as the viewport.
@@LavenderTowne I don't know if this helps at all since its been months since you made the video and all, but a website that teaches blender classes called cgcookie has a free video exercise on animating with the greese pencil: cgcookie.com/tutorial/animate-a-2d-bouncing-ball-with-grease-pencil
They have a few other courses on it as well, but the rest of it is paid stuff.
You also might have missed a 16min video posted on the developers channel 11 months ago that explains a lot of the new grease pencil features: ua-cam.com/video/pywbPQD9vYU/v-deo.html

Blender has a feature where you can restore previous sessions, it has saved me so many times.
It auto saves every couple minutes, and when you close the file... usually
yes and u can go to %tmp% in file explorer and recover a file. just have to remember to resave it to the desired location and not in to the temp folder where it will default if you just click "save" instead of "save as"

Krita is good for animation as well. They also let you play audio in the background though I will say it isn’t perfect since sometimes the audio may bug but good enough for a free animation program

-bakugou is My Religion-
If you have it on MacOS then I completely understand, it works better on windows. It’s difficult to learn but it has so many functionalities and the brush engine is excellent, so it’s really worth it in the end though.
I love how nice and simple the first program is, I love how it looks and I don’t really mind having to pick out my own colors for the shading cuz I do that for my 2ds animations so I’m used to it
First I was thinking: hmmm maybe she will try flipaclip
Sees video: okay nope
No she wont cuz she only used PC PROGRAMS, flipa is a mobile program
Ive seen so many comments talking about flipa when she is clearly using pc apps only
Same!!! Also flipaclip is on all devices, anyway...OwO
why would she use filp-a-clip? it's the worst
@Name Draw's No, it is. It needs to be a professional art programme. Flipaclip wasn't designed to be an animation or art program, just a simple fun app that kids make comics with.
If you want to learn how to actually start making professional art, use the apps in this video or use kitra
This brings me back to making animations frame by frame in MS Paint years ago 😭 So glad there are more options for us young and broke artists nowadays. ^^;
I use krita for my animation. I know you cant, but I think it's one of the best programs. It has a lot of tools but is very easy to understand and remember. I did have to look at some youtube tutorials though to understand the onion ring layer.
Edit: Onion Ring
Im the best
As someone who uses Photoshop as well (only for 1 frm drawings though), i must say that Krita is my saviour when talking about animation. People should totally check it out cuz it just has everything you might be searching for.
@Alex & Rah i use sketchbook on my phone. I would have used it on my old screen tablet, but it was really glitchy and didnt show me the picture at all
@Alex & Rah yeah i still use it from time to time on my phone. My first speedpaints on yt were from my phone 😅
@Samer The Animator its really simple by just going to settings, dockers, and checking animation and then googling how to set up everything up. Setting up is def the hardest part

With the Pencil2D saving popup, you can edit that in settings. It asks you after a certain amount of strokes. If you dont want it to keep asking you after a certain amount of strokes, you can turn the feature off in settings.

I've decided to learn voice acting this year! Sadly there aren't many tutorials out there that have been made recently, so I'm mostly going off of old information. It'd be cool to see you try it out, if that's something you'd be interested in trying.
Aaa I recommend casting call club for when you want to look for small projects.
@@cookiesandpudding8485 Yup, already bookmarked a few that seem ideal. I'll audition when my mic arrives.
A big issue, though, is that a lot of kids put their projects on there, so half the time I can't rely on the project actually getting finished, or there being any decent directing, even a script I can actually work with. I don't think many of them realise voice acting is one of the very last steps in a project, or that they need to have some skills of their own polished somewhat before starting something.
@@beththedarkmage3359 Yeah, it can take awhile sifting through projects to find ones that might fully go through. What kind of voices/roles do you want to do?
@@cookiesandpudding8485 Well, I'm female, so obviously I doubt I can do many male roles. My voice is more on the high pitched side so I'm awful at any kind of deep voice. Other than that, I try not to be too picky. I'm just starting out so I don't really have a specialty that I know of.
I'm fine with doing original or impressions, too. Though if it is an impression, I prefer it be a character I'm familiar with so I can really get into their mindset.
@@beththedarkmage3359 aaa well best of luck!! ❤❤❤

"It's very user-FREDLY"
I used pencil 2D for a my passion project at school (basically where everyone chooses their own skill that they wanna learn and they learn it), and I HATED it!!!!!! At first, I thought it was super cool but it began to glitch out after a while. It would turn the whole canvas red even when I clicked blue, it would randomly crash and make me start my project all over again, the copy and paste features were VERY strange and didn’t work for half the time and did the rest and UGH. Plus, back then I was a total beginner without any experience, so I thought I just sucked at animation and thought that I wasn’t good enough. I couldn’t even use a different program since that’s the only one on or school computers. Oof I don’t feel like writing anymore cuz no ones gonna see this anyways k byeeee
Edit: It has been a quite a while since I used this program and it has come to my attention that some of these bugs have been fixed XP
Yeah, pencil2d was TRASH. But I got the recent update after seeing this video, and it's pretty good now, they've fixed those problems (in fact they mentioned patching the crash problem) and made it easier to add keyframes. I've made like 10 seconds of rough animation in less than a day with the current version, that's insane, I used to only get about 3 seconds worth MAX before I had to leave it because it was so terrible. But yeah, that kind of school project is the absolute WORST. You have to research something before you learn it even if you pick up on things yourself.
Last time i tried using it couldn't even figure out how to open up the colour wheel so I gave up lol, but i mean now that I know it is openable I'll try using it again.
@@flurryface7927 The new version has it up by default.
@@thegeekaccountyoushouldign5679 Well that makes it easier lol
Hi Jenna. We're really sorry to hear about your experience with Pencil2D. First and foremost it's important that you or anyone else that reads this never think about themselves as being bad at something because the tools are not working correctly. We will continue improving the software as best as we can so people like you don't have to experience such hardships. We recall the red canvas bug, which was fixed (quite literally) years ago, so it seems this was in the distant past, but no matter what we aren't simply making the software to "ship it", we also want users to enjoy learning animation with it, so hopefully we can improve on that in the future so you and others not only give the app a second chance but also find it joyful to animate again.
That cover image is honestly me throughout the day.
Morning. Afternoon. And Night.
Blender is a cult. We're happy to have you on board (つ ♡ ͜ʖ ♡)つ
Awesome video! I've been doing flip books for fun for years and wanted to find something simple and free to see what a transition to digital would feel like. This video was extremely helpful, Thanks!
I sooo needed this video. I was thinking about making a small animation just for fun and I found this in my recommendations. thank you girl!
Krita is also good for animations, I love it since it’s also an art program, with usable brushes. If there’s one thing I hate about free animation programs/apps, it’s the crappy brushes.
0:56 - Pencil2D
6:41 - Blender
11:42 - Synfig
YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! And by one of my favorite art you tubers? Wowwwww
Fire alpaka actually has a hidden animation feature. it doesnt have a timeline tho, it just animates the layers on after another, but it has onion skins as well. it may be a little weird to use but its really simple and easy to understand.
Yay this is brilliant thank you!
Also
This may sound really weird, but you know the drawing things as cute girls series, what about cusines? So like Indian, American, Japanese, stuff like that...
Have a good day!
Synfig is an awesome tool, however it does crash as you said and the fact that you managed to even CREATE a circle without any tutorials astonishes me.
But once you know how it goes it's super easy and I prefer it to either one of the other two softwares.
Does new synfig still crashed alot?
@@agungwidi799 I actually don't know... I still use the old one 😅😅😅
An animation/art programm I would 100% recommend is krita, it has a lot of different brushes and it's animation surface is pretty quick to learn (one tutorial was enough for me)
Aaa, thank you so much for making this video! For so long I was wanting to get into animation so I started using the animation feature on Krita but it was a somewhat annoying process to Export the Animations so I ended up doing small little animations that I would store then eventually throw away because no matter what I did, the file would stay a file type that nothing could open or it would be a corrupted file, I am now trying out Pencil2d and I love it so far. You've really helped a lot!
you may also try krita (for any type of animation except tweening and riging)(needs something to render )
firealpaca(for gifs only)(exports in frames only)
and if you like to rigging you MUST try dragonbones
all of these are free
I use both of them, but i have the 32 bit version cause i have windows 7.
Thanks
I found this very helpful, I am a beginner and I am learning to animate so that I can animate a Roleplay game that me and my friends are doing. I've been trying to learn which programs are best and just 'how', and this was great for that! Thank you!
Blenders Greaser Pencil color fill is actually the stroke material, it's a little hidden but it's fine once you get used to it. The pressure sensitivity is the little icon to the right of the values for strength and size.

there's such thing as Fire alpaca, it's free and it works for animation AND drawing.
debatably firealpaca doesn't have ideal settings for animation (no proper timeline, no ability to do things such as add music) so I think that it might be better for beginners.
@@whenthe8810 There's other programs you can add audio with
@@danni9704 yeah but if people are making animated music videos or animatics it's far better for them to have their music easily accessible from the get go imo
@@whenthe8810 Fair point

Thanks for making this demo! I use TVPaint, so It'd be nice to have some alternatives I can recommend for those with more limited budgets.
Jazza should totally do a video on these programs! Nice ball bounce, lavender!
This was great! I've been trying to learn animation and the helped me find a good program. Thank you!
Man, it's been really difficult for me to learn how to animate because my tablet is dumb and it won't let me download flipaclip so these type of videos really help me out and help expand my horizons to animatetion apps
the blender grease pencil was orginally meant for making notes on 3d animations. i'm not sure what they changed to push a 2d angle on it, but a lot of problem that you ran into are features and short cuts mainly handy for the 3d aspect
I always fall asleep while watching your videos because your voice is so smooth and nice that it makes me fall asleep 😚
Thank you, the Pencil 2d is probably what I need. Looks simple and quick to work with. :)
thanks for making this, i might go to an animation camp that uses pencil 2d and it's good to know how good it actually is
12:28 omg i have exactly the same background
_i'm really late-_
but i noticed it too, and i got really excited when i saw it
I remember watching your videos about a year ago , so glad I found it again (I tried to find videos about 2019 best free animation 2D animation softwares).
To use fill in Blender, you have to set the opacity of the fill. So where you can select the color of "fill" on the right-hand side there, click it, and on the bottom is opacity. So yeah, now you know how to use it.
Pencil 2d is honestly a great program. I've used it a few times and it's been great every time.
"The Meg" The movie's shark was made in Blender. 3D, obviously.
Euphoric Fox really? Wow that's awesome. I guess they couldn't afford maya just like they couldn't afford a good plot.
Talk about great timing!
your videos makes me feel HAPPY 😁🙂
I didn't expect your animations to be so fluid and to know and have used (and still using) every program! Pretty cool, did you draw those logos :)
This video is just 1 minute old, and have already so much comments xD
Definitely all the kids trying to let the rest of the comments section know that they're either "first" or "early".
Ive been looking for this video for so long
It should be noted that the version of blender being used here was still under heavy development when this video was made and even now is still in beta, however, they have fixed saved prompt issue and even have an auto save option.
The Grease pencil basically uses vector graphics. For this reason, the fill tool creates a stroke, the material has to have a fill colour set to get the expected behavior of a fill.
The moving multiple frame nodes can be done by pressing the G key (Grab) rather than clicking, or using the Frame > Transform > Move menu option.
I think I'm going to use Pencil 2D but not in the way you think. I'm going to draw all the frames in my art program and then put them into Pencil to animate them. Hope that will work.
HarestarAnimations that’s what I do but instead of Pencil 2D it’s flipaclip
im actually looking for a 'free looking' animation software because my art style suits it, so this is perfect lmao
with moving the frames around, I think you can use G to grab and move if I remember correctly? it's weird, it uses all of blender's usual hotkeys that you would use with the modeling, but with frames...which can actually be cool and kind of useful with the whole "expand" and "stretch" deal
I found that by adding another bitmap layer for shading purposes.
It does mean that you'll be playing around with the brush tools to get,just the right size/feather/opacity settings but it IS worth trying.
I just wish they would add magic wand & lasso select tools.
