YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi! I am Mark Diaz, CEO of 2DAnimation101. I’ve been teaching beginners for 7+ years helping them get results.
I am a TEDx Speaker, Nerd and specialize in studying how the brain works and how anyone can learn fast.
I am also a certified instructor in Reallusion for 5 years, giving webinars, tutorials and training courses.
I know how hard it can be to spend endless hours trying to figure out software, only to do the very basic stuff.
The frustration of having technical questions that you just can’t seem to find the answer to in tutorials or the internet, because your situation is so specific that apparently, the whole internet hasn’t encountered that problem.
It is quite a challenge!
Most of us drop the idea of animating because the little time we have is spent on solving annoying technical problems that don’t really make the animation be completed.
Why do we give it up?
Because we don't have the time to be dealing with all the technical nonsense, especially after our 30s with a busy life and tons of responsibilities.
Trust me, I know how this feel. It’s both annoying and frustrating.
Have you ever had an idea and wanted to create an animation about it, but for some reason, you couldn't?
Check the ones that apply to you:
- I don't have time.
- I'm way past my 30s and I don't think animation is possible for me now - I am too late for this.
- I have to figure out the software, and it's so complicated.
- I can't sit for long hours on my pc, my body hurts.
- Even if I want to animate, I don't think I can, because I can not draw.
- I don’t have a team of people to help me produce an animation.
When it comes to animation, the huge challenge most of us face is being alone.
Big studios hire all kinds of artists just to create a single scene (just check the ending credits of most animations)
But, how can solo-artists do everything by themselves?
Is it even possible?
After creating the 12 Principles of Animation in Cartoon Animator 4”“ Course
The Reallusion team and 2DAnimation101 started contemplating the idea of automating some principles to make it easier for the student.
So, after tons and tons of hours of hard work and development, the amazing developers at Reallusion finally made it.
They figured out how to automate the principles with these new features:
Spring Animation
Free Form Deformation (FFD)
And to help out with the APPEAL, they also made it easier for anyone to customize their characters inside Cartoon Animator 5 by allowing you to change colors easily.
Vector
Fast Color
Customization
In this training you will learn how to master each of these new features so you can animate super fast.
Now 10 of the principles are automated so every beginner can create stunning animations faster than ever!
Sign up for the course to learn how.
be honest...
how absurd does it really sound?
If you asked professionals how you could create an animation in less than 10 minutes, and make it look smooth and convincing, they would look at you with a puzzled face and say:
"THAT'S ABSURD!"
They would tell you that you need to spend years learning and that it couldn’t be done that fast even after years of practice.
Well, thanks to technology, Cartoon Animator now does all the smoothness for you!
With CTA5 you don't have to spend months creating something that looks cool, you can easily take your animation from stiff, to smooth with follow-through.
