I'm in a little trouble
I won't be able to take any type of animating class since I "graduated too fast" or something like that.
and my sister is in acting school and has already asked for a loan around $25,000...  
so if I want to learn animation, i'll have to learn from scratch
awesome

so yeah, what can I do guys?

<+wwchicken> but i could only hear it when i stood on one spot in the kitchen
<+wwchicken> then i turned off the light
<+wwchicken> and it was gone

I could, but I'm learning barbering from my dad
meaning I don't have that much time, but I could do it bit by bit

forgot to mention that

yus. i learned to animate completely by myself, and i have a few daylies.

even 1 hour a night spent sketching/drawing/animating would help

find some artists and animators whose styles your really enjoy, and analyze how they work. if you can find any material from them like their sketches or interviews or books, get them. every well versed artist has tons of awesome tips. i'd say the best free resource from a professional would be john k's blog. it's really unorganized and he should get a website to organize everything he's written, but it's the best we've got: http://johnkstuff.blogspot.com

What programs do you use when you all practice animation?
Rtil, you have some great stuff, what do you use?

well i mainly just practice in flash because it's the most accessible. when i get the chance i practice on paper over a light board, because there's nothing like pencil and paper. you can buy a light board and pegs for as cheap as $60

that are about 30€, once again this shows how cool euros are.

milkwhatever, do it like I do. Don't practice, don't draw anything for weeks. It will help you get better, I swear.

well that's how I do it and it does help!
