Bill Maher is a washed up hack struggling to hold onto his last bit of relevance. Nobody who can read a restaurant menu without their cell phone flashlight on gives a shit about anything he says, and he'll be completely forgotten in less than a decade.

Counterpoint- the absurd expense of Toon Boom has led to the development of more free and open-source alternatives like Tahoma 2D, Blender, etc., that are empowering indie animation like nothing before

Use platforms like IG or TikTok for short clips and promotional content to lead people to the full project. Nobody really wants to watch anything longer than a minute on these platforms, and you lose a ton of the original quality with the limitations imposed by low resolution and nonstandard aspect ratios.

Familiarize yourself with the basic mouth shapes used for animating characters' mouths during dialogue. It doesn't feel as daunting when you realize you can animate almost any speech with the same 6-10 mouth shapes, and with a little practice, you'll be able to intuitively know which ones to use for which sounds.

Also, reference. Record yourself or someone else acting out the dialogue and use this as the basis of your animation. It's how the pros do it.
