i want to make an animation
 

i figured i have some good people around me in real life and on the internet that could prob help me out to do this

i figure i come up with some silly ideas at times and i should do something with them so i thought why not make a cartoon

if anybody here has an experience in this field it would be most excellent if you could help me out

i said figure twice too many times then
sorry

what kind of help do you need?
I havent made directly a cartoon, but some fucked up animations as study work. so I might give you some tips at some issues

I worked on Animation for my GCSE in IT. Just download Flash Studio 8, it's innapropriately easy.

flash is great, but most of the time it looks like flash and maybe isnt too versatile for cartoon stuff

Isn't Flash what all the Adult Swim shows use?

dont know. havent seen any adult swim stuff, got a link?
maybe I am wrong but after effects is pretty mighty when it comes down to animation.
I learned flash more as a interactive-animation programm

It's extremely versatile, but it's hardly ever used to its full potential..

yes its like photoshop in animation. everybody uses it in a different way and its potential is never used to its max. but thats the reason why I love it so much. I think its pretty easy to understand, more easy then photoshop as I can remember

easy easy easy
easy
ha

Ok so i have an idea for the animation i want to make

i want it to be easy to do, so just having things like the jaw move and stuff to make them talk.

so where do i start? what program do i use?
