2DFX Simplifying a Traditional Splash

So I finally got around to making this, showing how you can take a very complex concept like a traditional splash effect and break it down into simple stages. This lets you learn a lot without the brain cramp of starting with a final product in mind.

I love your channel! I'm starting to animate and all these videos are helping me a lot! This inspire me not only to animate but to teach and share what I learn with others.

Thank you so muuuch for all the inspiration and information. Your videos are pure gold and I'm so happy I've got to find you here on youtube. I've just started learning animation and your content is helping me immensely! Thank you again and again!

You may know this already but when cleaning up with the line tool, if you hold the option/alt key and click to add more line, they usually link. Hit "k" to check. Also, before letting go of your cursor, if you hit the command key you can bend the line. Good for cleanup. Let me know if you need more clarification.

Your tutorials are great and I’ve been watching for awhile, and I was wondering if you know how to animate a “timelapse” effect? Like clouds flying through the sky, or the sun rays on trees disappearing upwards but it looks sped up. I don’t know if it counts as effects, but if you had any advice :))
