Spriter Pro Questions

[John Te]

Hi, I just bought spriter pro. I'm planning to use it to make cartoon animation. Could anyone provide tips and tricks especially on complicated scenes that would usually require frame by frame animation?

Hi, I cannot know what do you mean by "complicated scenes". Usually when you need specific answer you provide more details in the question.

It`s always a good idea for beginners to check the Spriter tutorials:  https://www.youtube.com/user/BrashMonkey

and the Spriter Manual: http://www.brashmonkey.com/spriter_manual/index.htm

You can really get some very useful tips, tricks and explanations of how to use Spriter to the fullest. You can also search the web for "Cutout animation" to learn even more.

For example in this video you can see how some frame by frame animations are made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5PBw4aCVNQ

Good luck! =)

Thanks for the link!

I'm looking particularly into the combination of frame by frame animation with cutout animation. Is that possible?
