I need some basic help

I'm new to Flash Pro 8 and want to find some answers and tutorials. I do not use a tablet... I use a mouse.

Best Tool IYO?

Does anyone have any tutorials for things like hands, faces, blasts, kicks, punches and/or running? Those are the things I'm lacking xD

Thanks for anything you give me

Ah hello on you Emp! I can recomand line if you use mouse. And as I know tomocles made a hand tutorial i will give you the link when i wound it. Good luck .

it is possible to use a mouse Yurkovskiy. tablet is better but most people still use mouse. and emp, easing ur animations: using more frames is a good start

True, but lots of people use brush with mouses.

Yea. I think Tablet pwns i use one myself. :3

I'm getting a tablet... in a week-2 months lol

:\ I'm hoping it'll help me fix wobbliness

Yea it will when you get used to it!

Yurk, u use tablet?

emp didn't u saw my thread - FRAW's happy to help ,i could give u some tuts

dude I would go with brush or pencil just cuz i hate line =/

Well look, i use mouse (ball mouse type, not lazer) and im pretty good, ive been animating with it for like 8 months now. So the tool i usually use is Brush, Line is for noobs that cant draw a fucking stick. Brush is your god. Brush is more Free, you can draw anything you want with it. Brush allows you to feel the stick. Practice with it your whole animating experience. And you will become a good mouse animator.

nuff said.

depends on yourself, if you have a mouse, line is more time consuming but neater.
brush is faster/more wider range of forms/motions withouth looking weird.

for tablet users: pencil tool or brush tool all the way, because pen = free hand drawing. tablet+line tool is very annoying.

damn i must suck i use the line tool alot.......damn but i guess i have too cuse i can't use the brush with a damn laptop track pad th--ats like this big

and in my opinion, my touchpad is better to use with brush, then my mouse(or my mouse just sucks)
