I'm trying to animate a stickman but I'm finding it extremely difficult and i'm tearing my hair out over it. Can anyone animate a stick man sitting down at desk, shot from behind, standing up, leaving off stage (right) and returning to sit with a hot cup in hand a while later??
>>47096
Or anyone know a animation request site or something
Did you draw the pic?
>>47105
Yessir, through a tutorial
>>47108
Then draw the same pic without the chair and then a cutout of the chair. This way I don't have to do it myself.
I MAY do it, not right now because I'm studying, but later I'll give it a shot.
Consider that the stickman will look different because of the style.
You need a particular framerate?
>>47112
Oh duuude awesome.
Framerate is fine as long as it isn't jagged I guess.
>>47112
The style should be fine as a stickman but if you've got some creative flair atm, feel free to spice it up =P
>>47122
Perfect. I see there's already a hot cup on the desk... what gives?
>>47123
Well I suppose I should remove it since I asked for the animation to be him getting a cup..
The idea is that I just want the guy to look busy at the desk (typing, stretching, open drawer, wtv) and if I could get my head around it, I would make him do all sorts. If its easier to have him not leave the desk, that's cool also.
Fuck me it took me 3 hours and now photoshop tells me 8 GB of ram aren't enough to save the gif. The animation is finished, I'm looking for a workaround.
Sorry m8, it's an hardware problem.
I tried making a webm, but it fucks with the quality.
Here's mp4: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=17344132874748943187

Maaaaaate that is on point! Great job!!! Hahah amazing it's really nice thanks. Thank you very much. Hope you enjoyed making it cos its very cool
>>47386
did you use After effects or flash?
>>47704
Flash. Out of curiosity, what are you going to use it for? If you don't mind me asking.
>>47386
If you don't mind, another request = /
Could the background be grey colour #666666? or transparent.
And could the animation be a loop? Like he picks up the mugs and fills the mug and puts it down, etc etc, that way in a GIF it makes a seemless loop?
A lot to ask for, sorry
>>47721
i'd like to use it for a website actually, beside a body of text describing work done
>>47723
Since there's no alpha channel in mp4 here's the loop with grey background : http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=27509675668119294075
Easy fix.
>>47728
Fuck, you're lucky. People get paid hundreds for things like this.
Please use the animation just for yourself. If you share it, keep it free of charge.
>>47733
I wish i were being paid hundreds. I'm going to use it for my personal website.
Could I ask you to share your flash file? So i can see how you've animated it and I could copy to learn? If that's okay
>>47763
It's a clusterfuck, but ok. Give me time to rename the layers and other touch-ups.
>>47766
Also it's Flash CS6. I can use retrocompatibility saves if you need.
>>47768
If it's a massive hassle don't sweat it too much.
You've been very kind, I can't thank you enough
>>47770
So is CS6 ok? I can make it CS5 but no lower.
Welp, have both: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=43445607368845173634
When I said you're lucky I meant that animators get paid hundreds. Since they get 25 dollars an hour minimum from what I know you own me something over 130$ lol.
Always happy to see people willing to learn so make the most out of it.
Cheers
>>47777
You're a hero sir, you've inspired me do help more people on here.
>>47788
hasn't he just, thanks again mate
If anyone wants to keep editing the animation and add whatever else they want that goes with the whole stickman working, feel free =P
>>47096
>shot from behind
This confused me quite a bit.
Well it seems someone did a pretty good job on this.
