Software I use for my work and WHY

big tip when recording audio is to put a heavy blanket over your head and microphone so that it doesn't pick up the reverb of your room when you're recording audio

I don't like software where you have to pay monthly, sadly it's a pain in the ass for people with low income.

I examine your videos like a bible. You’ve helped me so much. Especially the After Effects stuff. Thank you!

Holy crap! He actually did cover every program he uses. Lol

I found TVPaint thanks to Aaron Blaise and when i had to use Toon Boom or flash to animate for college i was shocked at how bad it felt to draw in and how confusing something as simple as adding a frame could be

10:00 TVpaint has this awesome feature where if you want to workflow into after effects you can actually export as PNG/TIFF etc + JSON files. it lets you run a script that uses few drawings with timing instructions. It interfaces VERY well with After Effects, and makes editing a breeze, because I personally hate TVP's Camera

Dude, without a shadow of a doubt you have the absolute potential to help bring back 2D animation to filmmaking again.

For my animated short films this year, I'll mostly use Toon Boom Harmony for clean-up & coloring. I'll sometimes use Adobe Animate & TVPaint for some scenes, the rough stages belong to other animators that I don't do.

Hey man, awesome video, I studied Animation at University but after years of not using my degree, I have finally decided to fully go for it and definitely need to practice! You have given me the motivaqtion to go for it :D

Thanks Niko. I’m often SO curious about other animation apps beyond Adobe, which is going to be a deep consideration of affordability during my learning process.

Thank you so much for these videos, they are so helpful and actual life savers! I'm a first year animation major student, two months into it and have been researching so much for a 2d animation program suitable for me for homeworks and projects. It's so hard lol

Hi Toniko, I just recently stumbled upon your account and videos. Thanks for making your videos publicly available, they are really helpful! And saying that your animations look cool would be an understatement!

Really cool to see the details on why you use each program instead of just making a list! I'll have to check out handbrake for myself, it looks really useful. Also cool to see you like Blender! I Started learning blender 3 years ago after happening upon that donut tutorial, and was surprised by how powerful it was. I'm even more impressed by how it's grown and since the release of grease pencil, I Too have loved mixing 2D animation into 3d environments. Really hoping to be able to flesh out my stories and Work towards animating them well using those techniques.

Amazing video once again!

Very enlightening. Thank you.

TVPaint is lovely. Use it for storyboarding and animatics.

OH MY GOSH! You're awesome! Thank you very much

Woah, in early! This is incredibly useful. Tysm!

Right now Adobe is giving a free creative cloud program to all students! So right now it's a great time to try to start learning the programs and its advantages! I´ve been learning to use them and it has been a great experience.

thanks for sharing your experience ........
