Harlon animated 3

Quickly thrown together double-take using a Yogi bear cartoon as a reference. Sped things up a bit this time around which helps. Also just found out that while I was thinking at 24 fps, DVDs show in 30 fps which messes with my head.

I can't wait to see what happens as you start adding more images per movement.
BTW: Even though video is technically 30 frames per second (actually 29,97 standard definition). You can still animate at 24 , many do especially for exporting to film. I animation at 30 fps, but I am usually exporting to hd video and using 3d animation software to accomplish my goals. Many animators stick with 24 fps for a more "film" look.

Thanks for the hints, Vince. I'm coming at this from my usual oblique angle of not knowing anything and just plunging in. It's actually really interesting to look at frame to frames of old HB cartoons to see what they did and what they got away with.

classis Disney films were done "on the twos" so it's more than high enough quality. new Disney films and all 3d animations are pretty much "on the ones" these days because the movement is so much smoother. Computer will let you do any combinations you think works well for you.

For projects you want to show someday, it's best to go all HD 1080 format, at least. You can always scale down a lot easier than scale up!
