Here I’ll teach you how to get around in my favourite animation software, ToonBoom Animate 2 and Animate Pro 2. The entire introductory video series (below) is absolutely free and, coming soon, exclusive lessons intermediate to advanced.

Hi, I first did my animations in flash.. and when I tried to make longer animations,, flash failed me, crashing, corrupting and more..
so I was searching for an alternatieve and found toon boom but I didn’t know where to start
and now I do thanks to your awesome tutorials..
so thank you
I have been looking for an animation software for a while and found you through FancyPants2. I love the tutorials. This program looks WAY easier than I thought it would be, and I have never used flash for anything.
Hey Adam,
have watched most of your new tutorials on TB’s Animate 2 and love them. They have really helped with the learning curve. By far the best tutorials for TB Animate 2 to date.
I am more a traditional animator and would love to see some tutorials that are more dedicated to that with Animate 2. Your first tutorials go into it a bit with the bird animation, but I’d love to see your work process on how you would go about animating Bitey using Animate 2. I keep trying different things and trying different ways of working, but keep thinking I’m missing that perfect workflow on how exactly to approach working with individual drawings of every frame (or every other working in 2′s). Thanks again for some great tutorials.
Adam, what happens in Animate if I try to do the whole cartoon in one file, like Flash? I think it’s possible, nesting the scenes inside the symbols in the program, but I don’t know if it’s gonna lag up or explode, or what!
In one of your videos, you say weird things happen over 3000 frames. The cartoon I’m working on in Flash now is near 6000. What can I expect from Animate if I convert? (I’m dreading the idea of doing each scene individually and assembling it later.)
You’re fantastic, and thank you.
Hey Adam, thanks for the ToonBoom animate tutorials, they are very useful. I looked everywhere for something like this, but yours is the only one that actually explains things for me. Great video, great animator, love your work -thumbs up-
