    I’d like to add that which figures you use won’t determine the quality of your drawing, but the nicer ones hold their poses better and have better articulation. Using the wide FOV option on your phone helps with the scale issue imo but that may be a taste thing (I even have some super wide FOV and fisheye lenses I use when I really want to push things)

    New video!!! NICE! Thank you so so much!
    I never liked the wooden figure: it feels too simplified and weirdly shaped.
    Some drawing figures are so so much better now, with very evocative shapes. Some are even quite cheap!

    Action figures are also really important for 3d animation as well. In 3d, things can bend in weird ways. So having a physical figure with limited movement helps a lot.

    • @ImNotFine44
      @ImNotFine44 6 місяців тому +3

      Im not an animator and have no clue about animation but why dont you try keyframes? Try splitting your animation into key frames that are the apex of a movement or a change in direction. Then after setting those key frames, fill in the gaps inbetween. It would probably be alot easier to animate movement when you know where the movement is going and would help in consistency. It would also help getting the time of each movement right when you can just shift the keyframes around to preview how it feels before you actually do the bulk of the work and notice it doesnt feel right. Also onion skins or whatever you call seeing the opaque preview of other frames to work around (you probably are doing this but there are those cases of people not knowing this crucial tool).
      Good luck. I have alot of respect for animators as drawing one picture is hard enough for me, drawing hundreds and keeping it consistent seems really difficult.

    • @toppleton
      @toppleton 6 місяців тому +1

      @@ImNotFine44 Yeah, I'm familiar with keyframes. I'm moreso asking about keeping forms consistent during the layout phase of animation. I find that it's really difficult when a character is moving through perspective/various poses to keep everything looking uniform while also keeping the animation itself fluid and conforming to principles like squash and stretch.
      Hopefully Dong sees this comment and might have tools or things to practice to help!

      @FaelumbreProject 6 місяців тому +4

      Dong might have a better tip, but I learned that there's no harm in putting guidelines to keep consistency. Say a bean bag is being pushed along the ground in perspective - you can make a triangle in a new layer and eyeball the size and view of the bean bag inside that trajectory, and reference that no matter how much squash and stretch happens.
