Watchers

So my website got infected somehow, so even though the website looked the same, Google was preventing people from looking at it because it might give them malware.

So after much hassle I ended up deleting everything on my website and starting from scratch.

And I'm glad I did! It looks so much better now.

Please subscribe, since I'll be posting more on my website than on DeviantArt (it's easier to post multiple images of one thing on my website).

FAQ

Alright, so before you ask a question, please read this.
9 times out of 10 it will fit under one of these questions. haha.


1. Q: How did you make Animator vs. Animation?

....A: I used a program called Adobe Flash.
[link]
Many of the backgrounds were acquired using the Print Screen key to the right of F12 on most keyboards. I press the key, it copies the screen, I open Photoshop, I paste, I edit, I import into Flash. For the backgrounds that weren't screen captured, they were made painstakingly in Flash, using line, fill and gradient tools. All the icons were made using this method. The stick figure animation is all frame by frame.

2. Q: Can you teach me how to do that?

....A: Maybe some day. Thing is, I’m a full time student, so I’m pretty busy in general. Other thing is the sheer number of people that want to learn from me. Maybe when I have time I will put up my tips. Honestly though I’m still learning how to animate.

3. Q:Is there going to be an Animator vs. Animation IV?

....A: I'm not planning on it. Three reasons:
........1. Way too time consuming. This last one took an entire year. I logged 325 hours of solid animating time. The thing with sequels is that they need to be way better than their predecessors in order to be any good, so I don't know if I want to try to top this last one. I have better things to animate.
........2. Trilogies are way cooler than series of four or more.
........3. The stick figures blew up the computer. There's no way to continue from there.

I love your work. But this seems outdated. Are you still running your system on XP?

You could create another trilogy, maybe Windows 7 and Adobe CS5. Or if you want, let the community make a worthy sequel for you.

if you were to read his FAQ that is just a teeny bit above your own comment here, you would see that he has already answered similar suggestions to yours.

Try to at least skim the page for answers before you ask silly questions next time :)
