Sweet! also your voice is shmexy. i could learn alot from you. i know not how to do the animations, lol just have a loot as some of my attempts on my page.

Glad that my accent is at least not too grating :>
Also, I think it's important to point out right now, the videos won't be focusing too much on the theory of animation and everything that comes with it. It really is just a guide for the software that would need to be complemented with other sources of knowledge regarding animation in general. Toniko Pantoja's channel ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCR.....hrY9hJJcLVUeRQ ) is a great way to start if that's what you're looking for.

Not sure if im ready to under take such a feat. I only do commission art work for a living, and I never just draw for my self any more. I mainly want to learn animation so i can make my own cartoons for my self. You can blame the 90s cartoons for that.

it's never too late to start as long as you have the passion for it to stick with it. It's easier to start small with simple animations as you work your way up.

I also blame 90's cartoons :P

I've got Harmony Essentials, not sure if I'll be upgrading to the more advanced versions anytime soon... hopefully these tutorials don't go too in depth of tools that were removed from Essentials like Nodes.

In any case, I'm definitely subscribing for more :3

The course is made with, and for Harmony premium, so there is going to be a lot of content that won't apply to essentials and advanced. For exemple, episode 3 will cover bitmaps brushes which are not in essentials in any way, meaning you can skip it entirely. As for the node view, I have a lot of things planned with it but it's coming much later.

Aw ok, I'll see if I can one day upgrade to premium if I can afford to. As long as it isn't the one with a monthly payment plan

Looking very good! The captions were super helpful but you were also much more clear in this one in general, the whole thing felt like a big step up from the last one. Learned a lot too, particularly all of the info about vector palettes and the way they work, where the alpha lock equivalent was (repaint) and all of the various shortcuts. Looking forward to when you get into information about the canvas since I couldn't really get the hang of it before having to go back to Flash for class.

info about the canvas? are you talking about scene settings?

The um, main drawing area? It has multiple sort of modes right? I really wasn't able to figure it out. I call it a canvas because that's what it is in PS, but I thinking it's called the drawing area in Toon Boom.

oooh, yeah, I almost never use the dedicated drawing tab, I do 99% of my drawing in the camera view. If you're talking about options of the camera view, there's not much really, just the OpenGL/render preview but that's something I'm saving for the video on exporting.

Gotcha, okay, I think I may have just been overthinking it after realizing there were multiple modes. Well in that case I look forward to when you get to the timeline and the xsheet tab (if that's even used)! Thanks again for making these videos.

I know it's still early but will you show how to use the timeline properly it's the thing that's giving me the most trouble right now like inserting a frame between a previous one and a recent one.

yes, but that'll be episode 4, since I show as much of the drawing tools I can before tackling the timeline.

Hi I have a question..
I want to buy the software, and it will be fourty-hundred dollars.
But, does it give enough tools to animate properly?
Or its very limited?

don't you mean 400 dollars? (for the "essnetials" version I assume)
