Use Abraham. It's long been my standard that anyone who's dumb enough to be offended deserves to be offended. Don't worry about what people say - do what you want to do.

To believe that simply because his name is Abraham makes him anti-semetic is ridiculous. Stick with Abraham.

Well that's intersting. I've of course never tried to use it to that end because why on Earth would you? I think back on the DAYS I spent animating in Flash and how those same cartoons could have been done in AS in a few hours. Well, maybe more. It seems drawing the characters would take all the tim...

but counter productive to say flash, where a more traditional 'draw a frame, skip, draw a frame' workflow is possible When I would animate, say a mouth moving in Flash, I would work in much the same way people are discussing. I'd add a keyframe, delete the mouth, then draw a new one to fit the new ...

I didn't understand it, but it sure was pretty to look at!

That was hysterical!

Got the dreaded "Windows Media Player is unable to play this type of file" message

Man, you sure enter a bunch of contests!

I enjoyed the animation, though I didn't understand where it was going, other than the punchline. It was enjoyable to watch though.

I call it a bunch of crazy characters, like so:

Thanks to everyone for your answers. I guess the overwhelming majority has it that I need to storyboard. I looked at some pretty cool storyboard software, but I think I just need to print off some PDFs and hand sketch them - no learning curve! Thanks everyone. And if you still want to give an exampl...

Let me chime in as well - that is really well done!

Keyframes are "action points." You set them and the software extrpolates what happens between them (which is why the process is called "tweening"). Adding keyframes is as simple as sliding the timeline to where you want it (in your case frame 60) and right clicking. The 1st choic...

I hear where you're coming from, areyouguystwins, and agree. Even when I used Flash I always broke down my project into much shorter subscenes. Always easier to find your way around in a one minute clip than a 10 minute one. Have you posted any clips of your film? It sounds intriguing. I guess what ...

So I was wondering how people's workflow goes. Specifically storyboarding. I have never done this step, as when I write the script I tend to use the two-column television script format as opposed to the more common film style script format. In using that format, it requires me to "verbally"...

Sounds quite interesting...
