List of Underrated Animators

Art is by me
Music? Check inside for title

From now on, I'm challenging myself to make 1 animation every month, starting in April. These animations will range in length (most of them will be short, but a few will be longer than usual), but one thing is for certain, I'll be animating different stuff for each one.

Often when I see animations, they're dominated by the usual popular animators who publish decent animations consistently, but never try to experiment and expand their skillset. I wanted to make a list of animators that I consider as underrated. Note that this list is a subjective list and should be taken with a grain of salt.

I consider an underrated animator to have:
1. Has a good understanding of key principles in animation.
2. Projects to prove their prowess.
3. A following which I believe should include more people in them.
4. Have a number of followers which I think is less than what they deserve.

@Example ! - Best Animators. In the name. Their animations have a cinematic feel to them.
@Example * - Cool Animations. They are creative and hardworking animators who go beyond what you think is possible on Scratch.
@Example ^ - Inactive. They don't use the site as much as before.

If you want to forcefully insert yourself into this list, just post a project in the comments and I'll have a look. In the meantime, procrastinate and scroll through each of these guys animations!

Note that my famous animators list is very underdeveloped, as I don't pay as much attention to them as the underrated animators. Mostly because the majority of their content feels more like the clickbait on Youtube. I stand by @Rae-TV! Scratch is not social media!
