    I really love how you show all of the effort and time is put into simple flip books and how you show that sometimes you won't be able to think of anything when you sit down to draw. I feel like this video will help a lot of people who feel the need to give up just because they can't think of something to create.

      Repent and trust in Jesus. We all deserve Hell for our sins, such as lying lusting coveting and more. We can't save ourselves, but Jesus can save us. He died on the cross to save us for our sins and rose from the grave defeating death and Hell. You must put your faith in him only. He is the only way to Heaven. Repent and trust in Jesus.
      Romans 6:23

    When I ordered your kit, I got so excited I couldn't wait, so I took my school chrome book, used it as a light pad, and made my first flipbook... in class. yeah I got yelled at by the teacher, but it was so fun. Thank you for making the kit, you really made animation one of my favorite hobbies!
    Edit: Thank you so much for the likes and all the subs! I didn't realize that would happen.

    The part about "trying to think of something to draw/animante is real af. As a kid we just start without any reason or idea. As an adult , we turned creativity into a product/commodity. reconnecting with the spontaneity and joy is a conscious step, and an intentional practice. I teach my students that art is the physical manifestation/leftovers of creative joy.

    The way I used to make a flip book before getting your kit was to take a spiral memo the remove the round thing and use my tablet as a light pad by using a white background and putting it to the highest brightness. Was really hard but I loved after I made it. Thank you for inspiring me so much ❤️❤️❤️

    When creative people are so creative they find a creative way to save money or not spend any money at all on equipment for their creative work before they even start making their creative piece.
    In other words when he was a kid he was being creative before he even started making flip books and found a creative solution to solve the money problem so that he can actually make flipbooks
    That's what impresses me about creative people. They are able to find creative solutions and are able to make something out of nothing and I just can't fathom how they can do that

    Sweet my daughter has been watching you recently and really interested in flipbooks. I think we have some Index Cards, Rubber Bands, and Pencils for her to use instead of the paper she has been playing with. We purchased a A4 tracing light pad from Amazon for $15, which she has used for tracing picture, but it will be a great to use for flipbooks too.
    FYI. I also make short LEGO animations, and have been helping her understand what I do and the flipbooks are very similar. Maybe if she makes something that can be animated with LEGO mini figures, then I will help her create a LEGO animation with it.

      @@desavaliakshith6280 I doubt it. Andy's products are great, but for younger kids just starting in flipbooks it is best to just get Index Cards to start and determine if more should be invested. I actually purchased the tracing light pad for tracing pictures, so there isn't an immediate reason to purchase another one.
