Pencil Animation

I realized how late this post was... and I skipped the Pencil animation lab.
Please pardon me on that.







Anyway, Pencil is a REALLY very basic 2D Animation program that allows you to just... learn very basic key framing. The steps in this tutorial (which I didn't have to refer to any of the tutorials) is very simple, CTRL+ I, press the + button to key frame it, rinse and repeat.

However, even the most simple programs has lessons to be learnt. These traditional key framing has been the bread and butter of today's animation techniques. Yes, we have advanced further by having graph editor and such, but it all boils down to key framing.
