Be it digital or traditional, there are a few basic principals of animation that seperate the masters from the complete crap. Sure, you can draw or animate however the hell you want, but I suggest you learn some of the "rules" before you decide to break them. Here is a great resource I've stumbled across, and a lot cheaper than buying animation books from Preston Blair or Disney's Illusion of Life (both great btw!)

GREAT SITE! Thanks for the link. I'm on page 7 now, heh. Every page gets more interesting and fun.
Good thing I have a sketchbook surplus right now, I can afford to just burn through pages and still have plently left for school. Although I would much rather draw this all day than what we are doing in design now (drawing wireframe shapes with straight lines and no rulers allowed. Someone explain this no rulers thing to me please.)
This one's going in my "MUST SEE" links section. Thanks for bumping it to. I would have missed it |

Hello? Can't anyone at least acknowledge my question? I don't think it's that stupid.
How do you make objects 3d? |
