I use Krita. The large variety of brushes makes it really simple to create textures for you backgrounds, like if you want to add grass, clouds, water lines, a frickin mountain, etc, there's a brush for that. It works good for short animations, too.

This video is so helpful! I just got my first drawing tablet so I can finally move on from Flipaclip and I was a little daunted by trying to find the right programs. Most of the big animators and artists I tend to see use Paint Tool Sai or Photoshop and Toonboom or Adobe Animate, but I'm only animating as a hobby, I'm not getting money from it so I can't really afford those. This video just lays everything out for you and shows how each of these apps compare to Adobe. Honestly I was a little shocked by how much they can do. Thanks for making this so much easier for us beginning animators 😊

Thank you so much for putting this together. This video was exactly what I was looking for and I'm totally clueless about these apps, but know what I want them to do for me, so this was perfect for telling me where to look!

Hey Brad, thanks so much for the shout out, I really appreciate it! 😊 So glad you liked my Krita video and found it helpful, really means a lot especially since your ipad and procreate videos have helped me out a tonne (actually decided to buy one after watching!) ✨

You have changed my life! I was looking for another animation app that could do tweening unlike flipaclip pro (my current animation software) and opentoonz is just what I’m looking for!

My journey towards digital art has been so daunting (along side so much life stuff) it hasn't really even started, sadly. I've recently acquired the tools I wanted to start with (laptop, drawing tablet), now I wud just like to find some like minded ppl to learn with/from so this transition from traditional art isn't so much like 'jumping into a blackhole'. Brad, Ur presentation (regardless of what the video pertaining) always has an uplifting feel to it, so I guess what my rant boils down to is: "THANX!"

Do Blender, Do it, just do eet! I want to see you do 2D in 3D with your nifty digital pen and draw board. It still 2D even it is made in a app that is known for making 3D, it is also a animation tool, video editor and a porthole into the future.

Just a thing, I wanted you to know that you can also make 2D animation in blender, you have to click file➡️new➡️2d animation. But I don't know if it's good because I have not explored it fully yet

Thanks. I will try one of these apps

The only issue with free animation tools is that they normally lack a lot of features of the paid's ones. Which is fine and all but if you really want to get deep into animating then you are going to want to learn a proper suite eventually, which means you might be doubling the learning time. But yeah, for determining if you really want to get into animating then free apps are great!

Nice! Exactly what I wanted to see. FROM WHO I WANTED TO SEE! +like

Thanks brad . You always have good options to show . Sad thing is i dont have pad with window its just a flat pad and i hope it help on it . 👍👍👍

When i was in my early 20s (i am in my mid 40s now)i took a course in traditional animation (we are talking pen and paper a video camera), just because i love animation and want to know how it was done. I was looking up something for my friend and your vid came up. Made me think maybe i should try animating again. Just to do something to kill time. So thank you for the idea and list of sodtware. Take Care

It's helpful to know that Blender is also capable of 2D animation as of version 2.80! :)

If affinity ever combined designer and an animation timeline, they would instantly dominate, I'm waiting on a great IPad animation app, as I'm sure brad is too

I would love an animation app that lets you draw with things like shapes and lines like in Paint 3d. Is there anything that has those features? (Also, tweening sounds nice.)

It would be really nice to see an update to this video.

for many of these frame by frame apps where you draw each frame, is there some option to duplicate the previous frame, and simply add a little to that...rather than drawing the whole object again? Just curious
