Hey guys! I've been getting into animation recently and I thought I'd check out some of the free programs since animation programs can be so pricey. @ - @ I'm mad annoyed that Adobe raised the price on their app subscription. Oh also I recorded the voiceover for this one before the Friday video which is why it sounds like I'm suddenly sick again. :>

For color fills in GP that palette on the right has your materials or line colors, that grey solid is a fill. You can add solids by adding a new material and changing the alpha of the line to 0 and fill to 1. I know it’s nuts but once you start to get used to it it becomes amazing. Make sure you do fills on a separate layer, layers are in the pencil palette. Also scroll mousewheel on the key frame window will “Zoom” in so you can grab key frames easier. Hold down shift to select multiple key frames. Oh and you can change the opacity and thickness of a line even after you inked everything. Nice video!

Other than that, I try not to be too picky. I'm just starting out so I don't really have a specialty that I know of. I'm fine with doing original or impressions, too. Though if it is an impression, I prefer it be a character I'm familiar with so I can really get into their mindset.

I used pencil 2D for a my passion project at school (basically where everyone chooses their own skill that they wanna learn and they learn it), and I HATED it!!!!!! At first, I thought it was super cool but it began to glitch out after a while. It would turn the whole canvas red even when I clicked blue, it would randomly crash and make me start my project all over again, the copy and paste features were VERY strange and didn’t work for half the time and did the rest and UGH. Plus, back then I was a total beginner without any experience, so I thought I just sucked at animation and thought that I wasn’t good enough. I couldn’t even use a different program since that’s the only one on or school computers. Oof I don’t feel like writing anymore cuz no ones gonna see this anyways k byeeee Edit: It has been a quite a while since I used this program and it has come to my attention that some of these bugs have been fixed XP

Yeah, pencil2d was TRASH. But I got the recent update after seeing this video, and it's pretty good now, they've fixed those problems (in fact they mentioned patching the crash problem) and made it easier to add keyframes. I've made like 10 seconds of rough animation in less than a day with the current version, that's insane, I used to only get about 3 seconds worth MAX before I had to leave it because it was so terrible. But yeah, that kind of school project is the absolute WORST. You have to research something before you learn it even if you pick up on things yourself.

Hi Jenna. We're really sorry to hear about your experience with Pencil2D. First and foremost it's important that you or anyone else that reads this never think about themselves as being bad at something because the tools are not working correctly. We will continue improving the software as best as we can so people like you don't have to experience such hardships. We recall the red canvas bug, which was fixed (quite literally) years ago, so it seems this was in the distant past, but no matter what we aren't simply making the software to "ship it", we also want users to enjoy learning animation with it, so hopefully we can improve on that in the future so you and others not only give the app a second chance but also find it joyful to animate again.

I sooo needed this video. I was thinking about making a small animation just for fun and I found this in my recommendations. thank you girl!

Synfig is an awesome tool, however it does crash as you said and the fact that you managed to even CREATE a circle without any tutorials astonishes me. But once you know how it goes it's super easy and I prefer it to either one of the other two softwares.

That cover image is honestly me throughout the day. Morning. Afternoon. And Night.

Awesome video! I've been doing flip books for fun for years and wanted to find something simple and free to see what a transition to digital would feel like. This video was extremely helpful, Thanks!

Krita is also good for animations, I love it since it’s also an art program, with usable brushes. If there’s one thing I hate about free animation programs/apps, it’s the crappy brushes.

Aaa, thank you so much for making this video! For so long I was wanting to get into animation so I started using the animation feature on Krita but it was a somewhat annoying process to Export the Animations so I ended up doing small little animations that I would store then eventually throw away because no matter what I did, the file would stay a file type that nothing could open or it would be a corrupted file, I am now trying out Pencil2d and I love it so far. You've really helped a lot!

I found this very helpful, I am a beginner and I am learning to animate so that I can animate a Roleplay game that me and my friends are doing. I've been trying to learn which programs are best and just 'how', and this was great for that! Thank you!

YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! And by one of my favorite art you tubers? Wowwwww

Fire alpaka actually has a hidden animation feature. it doesnt have a timeline tho, it just animates the layers on after another, but it has onion skins as well. it may be a little weird to use but its really simple and easy to understand.

An animation/art programm I would 100% recommend is krita, it has a lot of different brushes and it's animation surface is pretty quick to learn (one tutorial was enough for me)

thanks for making this, i might go to an animation camp that uses pencil 2d and it's good to know how good it actually is

Thanks for making this demo! I use TVPaint, so It'd be nice to have some alternatives I can recommend for those with more limited budgets.

I didn't expect your animations to be so fluid and to know and have used (and still using) every program! Pretty cool, did you draw those logos :)

Blenders Greaser Pencil color fill is actually the stroke material, it's a little hidden but it's fine once you get used to it. The pressure sensitivity is the little icon to the right of the values for strength and size.

Jazza should totally do a video on these programs! Nice ball bounce, lavender!

I think I'm going to use Pencil 2D but not in the way you think. I'm going to draw all the frames in my art program and then put them into Pencil to animate them. Hope that will work.

HarestarAnimations that’s what I do but instead of Pencil 2D it’s flipaclip

the blender grease pencil was orginally meant for making notes on 3d animations. i'm not sure what they changed to push a 2d angle on it, but a lot of problem that you ran into are features and short cuts mainly handy for the 3d aspect

I always fall asleep while watching your videos because your voice is so smooth and nice that it makes me fall asleep 😚

Talk about great timing!

To use fill in Blender, you have to set the opacity of the fill. So where you can select the color of "fill" on the right-hand side there, click it, and on the bottom is opacity. So yeah, now you know how to use it.
