My first day of studying Animation. Work with ASP 9.

[rosetiti]

Uhm This is my first day of self-learning Animation. I picked the Anime Studio Pro 9. Wow it got me at the first sight
After messing awhile with Step-by-step tutorial of a guy in Youtube (thanks him alot)
I came up with a 6 sec animation (those first ideas of a 4 mins clip I'm gonna do). I wanna make the piggy jump but seem like she is flying....


By the way, can I ask you guys some question (im a very newbie in this animation community, very noob sr.. ):
- Should I separate the 4 mins clip into scenes and do it 1 by 1 in Anime Studio and compile it all together later in Adobe Premier?
- Can we stock the color we wanna use in a palette like in PTS and AI? Because I wanna have my own Color Style apply for all future animations.
- Can we draw outside in paper then some how turn it into vector in AS ?

Thanks you all for reading
My dream is making funny cartoon for my kids

Good start rosetiti. I'm new to this too and have really enjoyed being creative in a different way (normally play music). I'm really impressed with some of the work some people have created with AS and hopefully I will get better over time. I look forward to watching your future creations!!

Cool animation. Im not sure about the color palette question, i know you can have custom swatches but not color profiles as far as i am aware. Yes you can use a scanned paper drawn image to trace from. One option to use a hand drawn image is to use the View menu this function can also be accessed by pressing "control y" on windows or "cmd y" on mac this option gives you a static image to trace over. The second option is by using amine studios auto trace feature which can be accessed by importing an image through the layer menu or via the file menu, you can then access the auto trace feature through the draw menu.
