when ppl say flash animation pretty much always what i can tell they’re actually thinking of is what is referred to in animation practice as puppet animation, which i agree sucks like 90% of the time (there are a FEW shows that use it very masterfully, like homestar runner and one i’ll show later, though)

guess what? this is flash!

this is also flash!

THIS is puppet animation:

the funniest part is that most puppet animation isn’t even done in flash anymore. people use after effects instead because it has MUCH more sophisticated and useful tools meant specifically for puppet animation.

the technique can be used well, however. my little pony does it so fluidly it looks practically seamless.

homestar runner doesn’t focus nearly as much on fluidity, but instead on constructing strong, expressive key poses and making every frame really count.

puppet animation isn’t even limited to digital mediums. in fact, it’s not new at all.

the adventures of prince achmed is the world’s oldest surviving feature-length animated film - that’s right, predating snow white by over 10 years - and it was done entirely using puppet animation; black paper cutouts atop illuminated backgrounds. and it’s truly fucking breathtaking.

Look at this bean in @illustre2018 🎨 So happy to see all the hard work and struggles us Illustration students went through to make this exhibition a great night! Also so excited that I got an award tonight, shows that my dedication to the course really paid off!! ❤ Bonding with people over weeby things and memes in the course was also fun. Great memories I'll cherish, and knowing so many different types of artists is cool! 😊👌 I learnt so many techniques and skills that improved my work rapidly over the year and can't wait to see what kind of works I come up with in the future! 🎨👀 . . . . . . . . . . #illustre #illustre2018 #australianartist #australianillustrator #melbourneartist #melbourne #melbourneillustrator #melbpoly #melbournepolytechnic #exhibition #gallery #Illustration #instagramartist #instaartist #prahran #exhibitionopening #art #artist #showcase #emergingartist #emergingillustrator #cartoonist #cartoonistsofinstagram #kawaii #hatsunemiku #characterdesign #charactersheet #digitalpainting (at Melbourne Polytechnic Prahran Campus) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqMnva5hQ0p/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bribwbs44kc3

One of my favourites of Inktober so far but I guess that ink smudge adds to the swollen character 😂💚 @31witches
