Here is a simple tutorial with examples of twelve basic animation techniques. These are some of my favorite animations that I like to use and tweak in my AMVs! I hope this project helps you learn about new techniques and styles you can use in your animations. Each example animation is kept in a separate sprite in the project, with extra comments and notes added inside the sprite to help you understand and use the technique yourself. Have fun!
I learned all of these techniques from several amazing animators. I have credited them below. Thank you for (unknowingly) sharing your techniques with me! 1. Plummet (@kateisnice) 2.

Inkspill (@oakdem19) 12. Walk Cycle (@ArcanisHD) I would like to give a special thank you to @kateisnice for all her kindness in supporting my MAPs and for letting me steal and learn from all her amazing techniques. You are probably the animator I have learned the most from. Also thanks to who is my favorite "famous" animator and has given me a lot of inspiration. Last but not least, thanks to Jesus for giving me the ability to code and do art and animation! SDG
