    I was actually working on my first animatic and came across this, it's a very helpful tutorial. I personally use Allight Motion and ibis paint X which are both free and very useful! One tip for storyboarding I have is to use text rather then drawing, it is more rough but it personally works for me!

    Just finished watching, and I have to say, this video is going to be SO helpful to people who are starting out with digital animation! I know that when I first started making my weird animatic/pmv meshes I had absolutely zero idea what I was doing and ended up having to go back and re-do so many little things. Having this advice back then, especially the stuff regarding storyboarding, would have been invaluable and I’m so glad you decided to share your advice!!
    Your art style is super impressive, too-of course after watching this video I had to go and see your Good Omens animatic in full and I was just absolutely blown away by your use of color and blocky textured shading (how unique?!)! I genuinely haven’t seen anything like what you make before and you really have SO much talent for doing art (and also for explaining your process in ways that others can easily understand).
    Thanks again for posting this!

    No idea what animatic even was before watching, but this reminds me when I messed around with ffmpeg to do some video editing. btw putting timestamps in the description will automatically create video chapters
