Hi there.
Do you guys know any good software to create animated cartoons?
A friend of mine said that macromedia flash was nice but I´m looking for something simple.
I tried to draw 24 images per second but that took me hours!
I wanna do my own production logo like the one you see on kevin smith and robert rodriguez early films.
Cheers.Thanks a million folks.

holly **** that was an awesome response.Thanks a million dude!

Are you wanting to make this animation yourself as a learning oppurunity for your own personal benefits, or do you just want an animation/logo to put at the beginning of your films?

What do you want your logo to be/look like? (can you describe the action/text/characters/etc.?) I am fairly proficient in 3D animation so I might be able to help you out depending on what you are looking for.

hi there guys,

I just wanted a simple logo like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlDhaGY9X4g

Just a found a great site : http://www.instructables.com/id/ELMYEDO39MEQZJJ6WN/?ALLSTEPS - its a eazy way to do it.

www.DANCAD3D.com tips were great but very advanced.
I just wanted something less professional.

Cheers!

as for me I prefer VidGIF

I like cartoons. Specially the animated one.

You might want to look into Anime Studio Pro 7, you can check it out here, I think they've got a free trial too.

Good luck

If you want to create your own animated cartoon the first thing you'll need is a story. That's the basis of any good, of any good cartoon. After that you are going to have to get different, different supplies to make this cartoon. If you are going to do a traditionally drawn cartoon you are going to need lots of paper an animation disk or you know a drawing board to put this on, and whatever materials, art materials to finalize your drawings. Whether you are going to do painted cells or pastel on paper, or markers. There are so many different media you can use and remember for each minute of film it's one thousand four hundred and forty drawings. So you got, alright for a five or six minute cartoon you are talking close to ten thousand different images that you are going to be creating. If you are going to have voices in your cartoon, record them first, because you want to give your actors the freedom to act. And to ad lib and to come up with funnier lines then maybe the ones you wrote. And that way you animate your character to the performance that's already been given. This is an animation disk, and you'll see how the, there's pegs and holes to hold your paper still and that way you'll know each drawing is in the same place. And it doesn't shake all around when you go to film it. And you can buy specially punched paper that's got matching holes in it. You can see this is called inbetweening what I'm doing. I'm drawing one, and this is the middle drawing, and this is the drawing at the end so I flipped them back and forth and I can watch this kid's head turn. And notice how his hair, it kind of remains, it still going in this direction while he turns his head, that's called drag. When something moves it doesn't always go there at the same time. Like when flag is blowing and you are waving it around and the part that doesn't move as fast is called drag. And the looser the object is the more drag it will have. I'm having him close, blink while he turns his head like something caught his attention there. And then I can stack these in the right order, flip them like that. If I wanted to slow him down I'd just go back and put some more drawings in between, in betwen
these."
