i think i'm ready to stop being a depressing lump, so i've got a new cartoon coming out this week. it's around ten minutes and it's a waaaay different style than anything i've ever done, but i made it really, really, really quick. like... i wrote it yesterday, animated a bunch of it today, and will probably have it finished by Friday. That quick. It uses limited animation, squigglevision techniques, and reused assets from an abandoned project for the background, but the thing that REALLY sped it up is that Adobe Animate has a new auto-lipsyncing tool which is actually not that great as is BUT it provides you with a really good baseline that you can tweak around and it divides the time needed for animating mouth movement into, like, tenths.
