Time For A Change!

So I've been using a borrowed version of Toonboom for the last couple animations. I didn't want to have to buy the actual program, since it's way to expensive, nor did I want to pirate it...Too much trouble!

I remembered a couple of free alternatives. Open-source software that was promising. I hadn't really used them beyond the testing fazes but they have always been stuck in the back of my head.

After being teased with such great "paid" apps I wanted to go back to my roots. That is my broke roots :-D

From here on out (for at least the time being or I get the extra $$$) I'll be dedicated to using nothing but open-source apps for all computer aspects of the animation process. This little experiment should hopefully have some interesting results and I can't wait to see what kind of challenges will come up!

So Beginning tomorrow I'll be starting on a new short I had written up when I was bored... Hahah, It's a quick and simple little something that I hope will be a good starting point for this approach. Until then I'll be documenting this whole ordeal and hopefully have a bit of a "making of/ tutorial" video all set up.

Nighty Night!
