The Animator

I'm experimenting with new techniques right now, so I was tryna learn some line thing I saw in a RubberRoss video, but saw this animation going nowhere, so I just posted it early.

@inhumane

what line thing

@a_dead_man

It's sorta hard to explain, but its like a two line dash to show quick movement, usually put on the moving object. I tried it on the arm, plus i took the drawing style for said arm.

@inhumane

im pretty sure that's called smear frames

its better for larger or faster movemmments

@a_dead_man

Oh, ok. Thanks for the tip! I'm trying to learn as much technique as I can, and I want to get serious about animating. Thanks for the help!

@a_dead_man

I know about smears, I think he called them dash frames.

I'm pretty sure that's the definition of smear frames btw. probably just using lines to show the smear instead of blur or stretch

Yeah, that sums it up.
