Pencil, paper, camera

Pencil2D is pretty easy to learn and its free.

Anything is free if you know where to look.

programming it in C

can it animate like flash puppetry?

Krita
Blender
Pencil 2D
OpenToonz

Blender's new Grease Pencil looks cool as it can be used to draw on 3D models but it is still new so im guessing there are bugs and a bunch of annoying things that are not user friendly.

I have Open Toonz, but it seems to crash when I have it open for too long. And most tutorials are of older versions.
But also leaving my laptop inactive freezes it so I have to restart.
Also have a animation attempt from the 11 second club but I ran out of time because I started halfway through the month.
I was trying to go for a wiggle line effect.

Speaking of which, why doesn't Yea Forums have dedicated animation threads for people trying to learn the skill and craft?

>leaving my laptop inactive freezes it
Most pcs are programmed to power off the hard drive after a set time of inactivity, this might be the reason, you can find this in the advanced power settings.

because its better to go to /ic/ for that.

Has someone so generously collected them all?

user....

because art theft is rampant there, and you are a fool to contribute to drawthreads.

Because every time a project comes up the fetishfags or the tumblr landwhales ruin it

I'd say more that no one has a pushing force behind the project.

What was the last animation project that died?

Pro animator here.

Blender is the future, learn it (will be hard tho) because blender is the future.

I ain't no sanator's son

Paper.

Oh. You're one of those.
