    Just wanted to share a little tip regarding the audio part. I don't know if it was just me, but krita sometimes doesn't take mp3 , so in that case you need to convert your audio file into a WAV file. That's gonna make it work for sure [=

    Tip: The HOLD FRAMES option in the right click menu allows you to choose how long to hold a frame/frames. Say you drew in 1s and want to switch to 2s, you select the frames you want to extend or space out, select the "insert multiple hold frames" option and type in number of frames to hold (in this case 2) then all the frames you selected with skip the number of frames specified :). Instead of spacing each frame individually you can do it in one go.
