Hey guys im actually brand new to this...

[divinedakota]

Just bought myself Anime Studio Pro 10, and this Wacom Pen and Touch Bamboo Manga... This is like the assests I have. Anyway I really am good at drawing on pencil and paper... not so much as on a computer lol, I am going to buy a newer Wacom thing that shows the screen while drawing, which will be cool. So to get started, I want to make anime, I know its a bit of a hard concept for me to get up into, but I got time and dedication, I am really good at drawing the style of art, I just dont know how to animate it on the computer and bring my drawings onto the computer and like put them through anime studio pro 10 to make them look nice, I obviously know it wont ever look like Naruto or bleach on my own, but I just want to be able to do it in general

[divinedakota]

Anyone got a reply for me?

I would suggest you draw on paper then scan into the computer while you get used to the able to, especially using the vector-based tools in Anime Studio, you will probably be less frustrated and get decent results, plus learn to draw within AS at the same time. Have fun! That is the important bit really.

Where should I get a scanner and how much roughly? DOes walmart and crap like that sell them?

Also where can I watch good tutorials on makiung Anime with Anime Studio ?

I dunno about Anime in particular, but animation in general you can find tons on Smith Micro's site or on Youtube.

I like it , I like it a lot but, I dont know where i should start. Pretend u just installed the program, and opened it up and was like "oh sh*t" lol I am at that part with AS

I'd start with the Help menu. Select Help from that menu, and it takes you to the manual. The Tutorial is there as well, go through that, and a handy link to the online video tutorials is there as well.

Okay okay, Do you have skype? I mean if your down to help me sometime you could teach me a few things?

[braj]

Oh I don't do Skype. But check out the videos, the manual, etc. And ask questions here when you get stuck. I'm definitely no pro myself, lots of helpful people around though.

Okay okay
