[Nonnel]

i vote for no pivot

[Ipquarx]

i vote for no pivot

why tho

[Nonnel]

it's all the same

[foulprairiedog]

it's all the same

please elaborate

[Daswiruch]

please elaborate

i can kinda get what he's saying because almost every pivot animation is just stick figures jumping around with magic powers or kicking/punching each other
it gets boring fast

i absolutely love animation <3

lately ive been trying to get into 2d computer animation. i like looking at the break down of characters



ive also done some bits of 3d animation. mostly abstract experiments and title reveals, but some goofy stuff as well:

ive done TONS of stop-motion animation in the past as well.. but sadly it was so long ago i dont have those projects anymore. i currently dont have a significant enough set-up to pick up stop motion again right now, but i would love to start doing it again at some point in the future
