Do not use Adobe products. Their pricing methods have become predatory and to top it off, they fall behind when it comes to brushes. There are high tech things like watercolor brushes that other softwares use that Photoshop only tries to simulate. You will miss out. Even for simple non-animation things like tiled textures, Krita does better. Same thing with 3D softwares like Maya that have become insanely expensive, but is now falling behind to the free Blender. Just incredible to me when I have used all these various softwares for 20 years now.
@@Elamado97 Houdini has always been a niche product - for VFX, things like oceans and particle effects. I don't think anything is better than Houdini for that, because it has always tried to specialize in that. Houdini is not as great when it comes to other things however.
Thanks dude, l reckon you're right. l started with pencil and paper making flipbooks. atm l'm currently working on flipaclip and stop motion studio. Both are free (flipaclip has few ads to access advanced features).
The results are fairly good considering it's all being done on my phone, but l do need to improve my workstation to acheive a personally satisfactory end product.
They have an early cancellation fee of $143
I'm a Krita user myself, and the recent update includes a "tweening" function that REALLY speeds up workflow.
Bro how to use krita
Please give me a tutorial 🥲
How do you get around the constant crashing? For me it becomes unusable at just 100 frames and its only taking up 10% of my ram and cpu
@@xenosbreed I break up my projects into segments of around 175 frames. Saves My latest animation is 4 files and totals about 1300 frames. I would agree that it is a little buggy!
Thanks
Very helpful. I'm a student, so I pay the student price for the Adobe suite. I had no idea that Photoshop had a time slider! Lol, I'm blown away. Very cool.
Grease pencil is awesome! It takes time to figure out but it's so worth! You can also do everything else in Blender and most shortcuts are the same everywhere 🥰
And is compatible with Linux, Mac and Windows. Making Blender the best for everyone.
What about brushes though?
@@alquinart You're replying to the guy who made what is arguably the most popular pack of effect brushes for Grease Pencil
I switched from Moho to Grease Pencil for my 2D work, love the 2D/3D integration, it is developed extremely fast, and the price is hard to beat! 😎
@lol Yes it is, but you can do frame by frame animation in it, but it is not the best at it, my channel is mostly Moho, and I posted some frame by frame animations I made with it!
I thought it was free
@@alquinart It is, that's why the price is hard to beat! 🙃
The hidden potential about Blender Grease Pencil, are the addons that can directly or may indirectly help in 2D animating, with so many addons both free and not, the software isn't just at the mercy of the few developers.
Tho the only caveat is it's not as easy to pick-up or what I call plug-&-play as other dedicated software.
I'm not trying to downplay other's achievements I'm a what I call future-proofing type of workflow, we don't know if they continue or stop development or sell it to like Adobe/Autodesk.
@@MangaGamified 4.1 alpha supports geometry nodes for the Grease Pencil, this opens many more possibilities as well!
Such a wonderful video :) I like it, and can't wait to see more great animation and drawing videos :) Please, can you male a video on Sketch book pro for Ipad? :)
aftereffects is totally not suited for fbf animation. It's more suited for vector/puppet animation (but even that is not a strong suit, unless you use third party plugins)
Amazing!
thanks ❤
thank you this video helped me so much
I just want to know what software is used by Mort, DrNoSleep and others to make horror animations.
I have been animating for years and work in gaming industry as an animator. Lemme share my experience with you.... I will go from worse to best.
Adobe After Effect: it's not a frame by frame animation software, maximum you can do is tweening and vector manipulation which is neither good for a animator who prefere drawing for frame by frame animation. also it's the last option I will say anyone to choose from.
Pencil2D: it's not the best but for a beginner I will definitely suggest this software cause it's free and beginners can learn it in 30 minutes if not less.
Adobe Animate: it's good but I won't suggest it if you are dreaming high. It doesn't even have Raster mode neither slow/lazy drawing support for straight drawing. means you need to draw line then undo then again draw until you get your preferred smooth line.
Moho: it's bone system is really cool, everything that can be moved can be animated here. even though their drawing functions are not that strong but it's a strong software, it supports raster drawing too after Moho Pro 12 version.
Krita/CSP/Photoshop: I'm keeping them in same tab cause they are pretty much the same. but CSP has better drawing functions than Photoshop cz CSP is made for drawing and Photoshop is made especially for editing. Krita is also good now after their recent update, rhey added tweening and lag also reduced.
TVPaint: This software is awesome for frame by frame, I would say it's the exact same traditional animation software just paper and pencil to computer. it has some awesome fx. I even use this software for video composition too 😂 unfortunately no Vector and some minor limitations.
OpenToonZ: it's the 2nd best after ToonBoom harmony. 2nd best because it's pencil/pen tool lags a little. it's too little lag but if you are doing frame by frame animation for a long time and experienced in fast drawing you can feel it with a little uncomfortable drawing experience. I guess that's because this open source software doesn't have as much support as blender. hopefully they will fix it in next update, I'm really sad to leave this software, honestly I don't want to.
ToonBoom: beast of 2D animation, it can do almost everything that any other 2D software can. but too hard to learn
Facts
as a moho user, I won't count moho in a fbf list. The fbf feature has too many bugs and lacking raster drawing tools. Moho is more like all in for rigged animation. Recently, I have to make a few short fbf animation, and it is truly nightmare days for me :v
@@MienLeHoang yup that's why I said it's drawing tool is not strong. By the way Moho 12 or 13 has raster drawing mode. I don't remember the version
Thanks for sharing
@@samratix2497 the 13 one, but it has been dropped. The newest version is 13.5 which is developed from 12.5 so it doesn't have that raster drawing function anymore. Fbf is now for vector drawing only.
I use Clip Studio Paint to draw. I wish they could update their animation feature.
I wish Celsys would just let me buy RETAS...
Hi CZcams!!! 👋😄 Hi Blender Grease Pencil!!! ✌️😉 Hi "frame by frame" animators ✍️😁. Nice review, good job 👏🙂
Hi Tuat555 !! Thank you very much ✨✨
Can you do tutorials about that thumbnail of Portgas D Ace? 🤔 it looks amazing!
Great video. I personally prefer Toonboom but Im keeping a close eye on Blender and will at some point give it an honest go since I am curious in the 3D-2D impementation
sure, if toonboom was free and supported on Linux i'd use it as well, but it's just too locked and restricted, too expensive and not supported on linux is the biggest flaw of it, how am i supposed to work along side of someone who is restricted to using linux by either financial reasons or personal choice ?? buy them a computer with windows ?
@@gargoyled_drake me here who is using it for free lmao

@@hairmus1896 how?
@@Pavnq 🏴☠
What about flip a clip?
Does it work for AMD 👀
Hello! does anyone know a method by which I can add an effect done on one single PNG frame to the entire PNG frames automatically so that when I convert to video, the whole PNG sequence has the same effect on em. Eb Synth software does that perfectly, but the software gives an error message on my PC. I'm trying to find a different method/software to animate in the most stress-free way possible. Thanks!🙃🙃
Cg course coast 8900usd???😮
Hi,please help me take a decision... I am not good at drawing but very much interested to animation, can I do it?? If so, which software is perfect for me??
i suggest OpenToonz, it's free opensource software, it's a bit of a learning curve, but not as hard as blender! there are lot's of guides and tutorials available for OpenToonz, which makes it more welcoming for newcomers, it is also supperted on windows, macos and linux, which makes it easier for you to just work with others who dosnt use the same OS as you do.
i think the only frustrating thing i have encountered with OpenToonz is getting the export animation to work right, since the software is not shipped with ffmpeg, which you need to export gifs and such, but there are good guides on youtube as well for that and once it's done, it's done, you don't have to worry about it anymore.
good luck on your journey, wish you all the best and hope to see one of your animations some day in the future!
I’m thinking of starting animation. I dont have a any setup. I wanna ask you.
Which software is the best saving time? And
Which tablet would you recommend?
Thanks.
@@thanosthegod4406 thanks.
@@kirecburnucakal4105 on a side note make sure youve got illustration skills enough to do animation, lots of people dive into animation just to get burnt out from not having skills to keep up. Like the dude above said krita is good but really its an illustration software first and foremost. For a tablet I'd get as big as you can for your budget, keep clear of small screen tablets, and make sure youve got good desk space. Have fun drawing!
Sorry what do you mean by enough illustration skills
whts the defference in after effect and premere pro
Premiere Pro is used for video editing, while After Effects is used for creating animations, motion graphics, and visual effects that can be added to video footage. Both software can work together, allowing users to edit video footage in Premiere Pro and then add special effects or animations in After Effects.
I don't realise this channel has 2d version
I only watched 3d channel for a year
miss you Moho !!
Moho? Big oversight.
Out of all of these I prefer CSP because they have a native iPad app, sure I can use the other softwares on my iPad with Sidecar but its a bit clunky. The Adobe software is definitely the worst here, AE and PS aren't designed for fbf animation and Animate has pretty lackluster drawing tools and is only vector based. Pencil2D is a free software made by one person so cut him some slack (but its still better than the Adobe stuff LOL)
are the inspiration tut videos voiceover ai generated or physically recorded?
if ai generated which service?
Our team counts 2 female voice over artists and one male artist, and they are very human! xD thank you for the feedback!
@@InspirationTuts2D they feel very much like heavily advanced ai, like dialogue delivery etc feels so on point it doesnt feel human now
Toon boom It's very expensive then how could be able to learn that,? And dont even find any good course for that too..
I am still looking for a professional animator for my project. Isn't there a special platform where I can go in order to find these animators?
Upwork
Fiverr
Toon BoOm beats all other programs. mainly cz u have amazing control over ur lines. Yes making shadow and other effect with Nodes is hard at first but the controll it gives u is amazing.
I guess you don't mention Moho / Anime Studio on purpose?
Thinking Moho is not good enough??
Is harmony the new adobe with price oh my
Blender has some great features but it's too buggy and the UI is too frustrating to deal with. I like Toon Boom.
Toon boom is too expensive man.. I choose clip studio paint...
@@princeparee6553 clip studio paint is missing hard on updates, i use OpenToonz, it also has a bunch of plugins available since it's been around as long as it has.
can you covert your adobe illustrator into toon boom harmony?
You can import AI (Adobe Illustrator) and PDF files into Toon Boom Harmony to convert your files to the Toon Boom format (TVG) and create a colour palette based on the colour settings of the original file. When importing AI and PDF files: RGB is supported, CMYK is not. Gradients and textures are not supported.
@@InspirationTuts2D interesting
I use krita animation is great at frame by frame
Great !✨
Krita is one of my favorites.
creo que me cambiaré a open toonz
Quill for PCVR users 😁
The best of all is Blender, for sure!
It is completely free and offers numerous features at a professional level.
And the worst of this list, without a doubt, is Pencil 2D...
Because it has several terrible configuration and interface errors, not saving user settings and having very little animation feature.
I ama die hard blender user but it's noncsense saying that it's the best 2D animation tool. Using the grease pencil has a terrible learning curve. It's good but it's not as user friendly in this department yet
@@ajtatosmano2 It's not "nonsense" if it's my experience, not the general experience. So yes, I can say that Grease Pencil is the best on this list. 😉
@@ace5352 Hahaha.. 😂
And who are you in line at the bank to want to deduce such a RIDICULOUS idea based on an opinion?..
If you find it so difficult, it's because YOU are the one who doesn't know how to use Grease Pencil, simple as that! 😏🤷🏻♂️
@ACE You're just a stupid kid thinking you're an animator/seer because that guy thinks he knows me and my work to have a pathetic opinion like that.. Haha😂
You don't think the best because YOU simply don't know ANYTHING about the software. Simple! 😏
It's not bad to admit it instead of fantasizing about what others think. 😉
I actually started animating with pencil 2D, i think their stronger point is actually their lack of tools. You get a pencil, a timeline, and onion skinning. For a beginner, not having to worry about a 100 tools and options is actually pretty cool. I recently switched to opentoonz, it's free and its a really good and complete program, plus it's from studio ghibli so yeah. I guess that might beat blender lmao
Toon boom harmony is the king in all the aspects, its price so expensive tho
It's very expensive then how could be able to learn that,? And dont even find any good course for that too..
Clip Sturio went $$$ subscription.
"Best frame by frame" and missed Digicell Flipbooks??? Used by Eric Goldberg and Don Bluth and even Jason Ryan from IAnimate as a teaching tool...
Thanks for the info tho
Im goin back to fire alpaca orz
you miss "Cacani"
Listing Linux for a KDE product on place 3 after windows and macOS is hilarious
I like filpacilp I find others complicated
Can you plz send me sum old grafic tablette you dont need
New yorkers cant get away with this 🤮🤮
MMM well those are western standars but the truth is that if we talk about 2D animation the ones in the top are the ANIME producers and they use Clip Studio Paint NONE of them use Toon Harmony, I don't see how Toon Harmony can be recognize as industry standard if the biggest 2d studio in the west that is Disney have their own dedicated software and don't use any of these software either, then what is the metric you are using?????
I will say from your list I only see potential is Blender, that is because what the audience and the industry is thirsty about right now is NPR animation, like what you see in Netflix TV Show ARCANE that is a 3D animation made with hand paint textures
that's not true though... csp is used, but far from all of them. Tv paint is even more used. But also Toonz (not the opentoonz, but the commercial one)
Also there are many Harmony studios in asia, doing all kinds of animation styles (including Anime)
I love that there's many ways to do animation
It's the large corps. that need to be knocked on their a...butts for forcing a standard on art
why do you say krita like this😂
Omfg
After this I'm not excited about any because all reviews are so pessimistic.
Amateurs i animate with ms paint and movie maker check my animations for proof
You are definitely a LEGEND!
LMAO, i used to do the same back on windows xp, made my own onion skin technique for some of my animations back then, hell of a work flow, but it was fun cause i did'n know anything else back then.
Frame by frame animation is very complicated and time consumeing...😞😞
Yes it is but it's worth it
Those Who Claim Their Video Will Jump Right Into It But Then Show An Ad Instead WILL Face God's Wrath On Judgment Day
you have no idea how funny this is
Blender Is the King
Long Live the King!
Hey kids just a quick psa you know those tacky soulless corporate animated commercials, wanna know why their so simple and not complex. Adobe animate is atrocious and barely counts as an animation software it’s a lousy excuse for a tool 🫶🏽
I use Clip Studio Paint to draw. I wish they could update their animation feature.
do BGs in Clip Studio Paint and then Animation in Open Toonz
