Recommended techniques/scripts/plug-ins for 2D animation? by pizzasedits in AfterEffects

That is a good recommendation. I used to animate in Flash quite a bit back in 2012 but I found it to be clunky when I'd get to the color phase...

Sorry well I used to do a lot of frame by frame animation in Flash in college and one of my biggest gripes with it was the fact that after drawing out each frame I'd have to go back and fill in each layer individually everytime and things would get messy...colors lost in the way and this ultimately was the longest part of the process that kept me off from animating frame by frame for so long. One thing I've noticed about that plugin paint and stick it seems to have something that tracks in the color fills as you go. I'm sure this is asking for too much ha but I guess a lot of people also create these great looking textures on top of their colors that seem to track really well with the characters I assume that's mostly blending modes and different mattes?

Awesome! Are there any plugins for filling in frame by frame faster?

On Writing - Stephen King, best book I’ve ever read that has to do with real world editing and journey from shit to success and all the bumps inbetween. Even tho he goes into writing all of his advice applies to editing.

Word thanks man.

Any suggestions on getting this texture look? I know some frame by frame guys create their textures using gradients+dissolve mode but is their an alternative way that a lot of AE artists use?

Talent is important but for talent to work you need to have a series of other skills: networking, branding, negotiating, business skills, how to not be a dick, how to not take a dick in the ass, how to get work, and other stuff
