How to animate object show characters in Wick Editor!

You can think
of tweening like the computer looking at your two frames, and making one in-between.

Modes are math equations, that tell how to tween . Making it faster, slower, or even stepped.

Now, there’s different modes:

  • None (Linear, moves like a robot.)
  • In (Quadratic-In, slower in the start, gets faster in the end.)
  • Out (Quadratic-Out, slower in the end, faster in the start
  • In-Out (Both Out and In.)

isnt that just png’s of Firey’s moving asset slapped together to make one animation?

#22

Guys, there’s HDR PNG’s NOW! They updated the spec after two decades (the last one was before the first iPhone.)

what are you talking about?

#24

The PNG spec updated.

#25

Uhh yeah. I don’t know why I didn’t make that into wick editor’s vector format actually :sweat_smile:

My list of what NOT to do:

  • If you are using tweens frequently, don’t use a framerate below 16 fps
  • If you are using frame-by-frame frequently, don’t use a framerate higher than 30 fps
  • (STICKMANRED FORK) Don’t ignore the frame picker for lip-syncing (not using frame-picker for it is a nightmare, I can guarantee)
  • Do not animate arms if their pivot point is in the middle. If you don’t move the pivot point, the arm animation will look unstable.
  • Try not to use the linear (aka. None) ease. It makes the animation look chopped, robotic, slow and made by an 8 year old in their closet that has been animating for 1 day.

Actually, sometimes (more refined tweens, normally in 3D uses), the ‘None’ option is more stable than multiple eases.

#28

In blender, the default ease is In-Out

#29

Since when? The last time I checked, it was Linear.

#30

Idk for me the movements look like in-out eases

#31

question: do we need layer for anything? (like all the contestans into another layer?)
