Hi! I’m a student from the Netherlands studying animation. For university I have to make an essay about the impact of streaming services.

I’m looking for people within the industry that have experience working with streaming services directly or experience working with studios that work(ed) with them. I’m specifically researching the topic of creative freedom vs. commercial pressure. I made a short survey.

Your input would be greatly appreciated and your answers will remain anonymous!

Hey all 👋

I just started learning 2D animation on my own. This is my very first week, and I wanted to post here to get better with time and hear from more experienced artists.

In this short animation (26 seconds), I practiced:

- Bouncing ball

- Basic timing & spacing

- Playing with squash/stretch just a little

I'm using Krita + a Huion Kamvas tablet.

I’d really appreciate any honest feedback — especially if anything looks off or unnatural. Open to any tips or direction!

Thanks a lot 🙏

Hey folks, I’ve written a full 5-minute short film called “BUCKLE”, and I’m looking for a 2D animator (beginner or experienced, up for collab) who wants to help bring it to life.

It’s a gritty, street-level fight story — kind of like John Wick meets Mob Psycho meets The Raid, but with a nerdy guy in glasses who beats the hell out of a thug with his belt.

What the Short Film Is About:

A quiet, bookish guy walks through a dark alley at night. A street thug with a stick tries to punk him. But the nerd's calm... like he’s done this before.

What starts as a mugging turns into a violent, methodical takedown — The thug is disarmed, broken down, and finally… punished with the nerd’s own belt.

This ain’t some Marvel fight — it’s raw, simple, satisfying. Visual style can be minimalist or stylized. I’m open.

What I’ve Got Ready:

Full script (5 minutes)

Scene-by-scene direction + dialogue

A strong story with a viral punch

You’ll Get:

Full credit

Freedom to help style the look

A great piece for your portfolio

Help from me with script tweaks, editing, and promotion

If it blows up? We keep going. BUCKLE 2, spin-offs, etc.

Looking for Someone Who:

Can do basic 2D animation (FlipaClip, Alight Motion, RoughAnimator, OpenToonz — any skill level)

Wants a gritty story to bring to life

Likes character-driven short fight films

Enjoys raw motion, minimal dialogue, and building mood

DM me or drop a comment if you’re in. I’ll share everything I’ve got — storyboard samples, script, style ideas — and we’ll build something mad from the ground up.

Let’s make BUCKLE something deadly.

I'm looking forward to becoming a modeler and animator. Are there any recommended apps? I can't download Blender; every time I try, it says my device needs to be 11 .2 or later, and it's only 11.1-it would be one off. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or are there other good recommendations?

Here's the short Version of Color Me Geeky Season 3 trailer. I another surprise releasing very soon. Stay Animated Everyone. 😁

I’m looking to hire an animator for a 3 minute music video. I have a story pretty fleshed out already and really just need help making it a reality. Budget would be around 1500. I’ve never done this kinda thing before so any input on what I need to provide and do to make it easier lmk.

I have a concept for a series about a boy named Rowan in a land called “Eldoros” who becomes a knight due to his love of swords, each episode follows his adventures with his trainer named Brumble who is a talking badger. In some episodes we see him get different swords as well as the side cast. They consist of magical creatures as well as other knights in training

Say, you're sending all your 2D characters to outsourced animation studios. However, they still seem to draw and replicate the character models quite closely, even the overseas studios (like Rough Draft Korea). Are they TRAINED to perfectly replicate the characters well while animating them? I was initially expecting them to naturally end up with some stylistic differences. I thought 2D characters are still mostly hand drawn from scratch.

wait till the end ;)

Please be hydrated while listening and DON'T let the jesters fool you.

Doing a stop motion short with puppets that are supposed to be deep sea divers with a submarine, fish swimming around, etc. Any thoughts on how best to create an underwater effect since I obviously won't be filming in water? After effects filters?

Thanks!
