Flash tutorial 1 - Walking and walk cycles

Posted by Zeurel - August 14th, 2011


Any of you have trouble with making characters walk?

I've just finished my first tutorial which is, funnily enough, about walks.

Check it out if you feel like it.

That is one of the best animation tutorials I've ever seen :) great job!

Nice man.. very informative. Good explaining skills.... lol

Nice! I always did suck at walkingcycles, so this helped me out!

Nice one! You're the man to teach this stuff.

i favorited it.

walking cycles is one of the hardest things man! i mean....it's easier to animate someone jumping in the then doing 360 dragon kick to someones jaw.

Yyou have so many room for errors `because of the contrasting frames.

walking cycles, they all have to look so similar!

i'll check out your tutorial later. thanks.

im having trouble finding flash thats under $700

^ There's some sites like this: macromedia-flash-8.soft32. com/buy (remove the space) that sell Flash 8 for like 50 or 60 bucks.

You can also sometimes find later versions like CS4 available on Ebay for $150 to $200 (only if it's bidding).

You can search Flash8-en.exe on Google to get the trial, then look up the registration key to get the entire software for free.

Ugh so many popular animators tween these days which oftentimes discourages me and makes me do the same occasionally, I'm glad you're not one of them.

I used the tutorial, I made it walk backwards -_-

Is EFN in progress?

The EFN tournament ended two years ago...

mhm, your deviantart version definitely overshadowed this by a longshot.

good work on the fbf though.

you play tf2?

how come you're so awesome.

this tutorial is just perfect it help me realy good make another tutorial

So THAT´s why your animations are so fluent :o cool thing!
By the way, did you put the EFN series on ice or did you cancel it?

I like trains.

I just want to be one of the many to say... Thanks man, you rock. I've started to toy around with Flash today thanks to your tutorial.
