How to animate in OpenToonz using keyframe interpolation - 2D animation class [#007]

In this OpenToonz tutorial you will learn how to set keyframes and edit animation curves. Let the computer do some of the animation work using the power of interpolation!

This animation tutorial covers:
- the differences between the select tool and the animate tool in OpenToonz
- what linear and speed in/out interpolation really means
- reading animation curves in the function editor
- setting eases with the bezier handles and with ease keyframes

This is what all technical tutorials should be like! Fantastic. What you need is a TEACHER, not necessarily an expert. Nearly all other tutorials have experts who do not know how to teach - so don't.

Another great video. I really like the way you break things down to the basics and don't assume the viewer already knows all the prerequisites. Please keep the videos coming!

MAN! OpenToonz is so amazing. I can see using this for motion graphics besides character animation

Keyframe interpolation! Ok, maybe I will try this program.

Well done! I learned about vector graphics on a Mac, plus with illustrator running off of a floppy disk... I turned my boss onto Flash, and that was a cool to take advantage of vector movement compared to bitmap movement at the time ( early 90s/ Dial up speeds). This is the closest thing I've seen to that in open source...

This is the tutorial i was looking for

instead of painstakingly switching to position rotate setting and all taht you can just use the "all" option at the bottom

Thank you so so much, I really needed to know how to make smoother animations on OpenToonz, this tutorial was perfect!

This video is actual *gold.*
I had a few questions about the interpolation in Opentoonz and this answered all of them!

I'm also glad that this video shows the basics of animation itself, so I can link it to anyone from any level! Well Done!

Excellent series! I have a light 3D animation background but want to learn 2D for personal projects, so your tutorials are a real blessing! Keep up the great work!

Right on brother, doing the lords good work up in this hizzy.

HI - quick question for you or any other helpful people out there, I'm just getting into animation and Opentoonz and so far have been using Affinity Designer to make my static cartoons. Do you think I should keep using AD to make multiple frames (then import them into OT), or should I design them from scratch in OT?

[pokk]

Thank you so much sir for this playlist 😊💙

Hi, great video, does anybody know if we can copy and duplicated the keyframes on the curve editor? In Blender software it is very easy to copy keyframes directly from the curves, but I do not find a way to do it in opentoons, if somebody knows please share.

YOU ARE FANTASTIC! THIS is the thing I've been looking for!!

THANK YOU, MESSIAH!!!!

Your videos are so helpful!
I have a question. if I want to animate character, with moving arms/legs/etc, how should I do that? when should I fill it up with color?
