@awesam15 That'd take too long to explain. So first I type up a script in Microsoft Word. When I'm happy with it, I get my friends and people from the internet, some well known and some not, to provide voices. After I get all the voice clips, I get to work. I animate in a program called Flash, which totally never crashes. I animate frame by frame, on twos, which means I draw a new image every two frames. The frames run by at 24 frames per second, although in actuality I only have to draw twelve frames per second of film. When I'm finished keyframing, inbetweening, coloring, backgrounding, and lipsyncing, I put in all of the special effects, which includes but is not limited to sound effects and explosions. After I'm finished with all of that, I export the finished .SWF file. At this point it's ready for Newgrounds, but there's some more work involved with putting it on YouTube. I use a program called Swivel to render each frame individually and create an MP4. Then I put it on YouTube.
