I made a community thumbnail for [email protected] a few days ago. I thought It would be a fun and creative project to make it animated.
Wow was it a lot of work! I didn’t know anything about gif animations so I looked up a quick tutorial. I made two frames alternating and worked from there. The result is rough in places but im proud of it anyway. It took way more animations than I expected to get things smooth. I learned early on small changes between many frames make for a more smooth viewing experience. Also too many new lines at once looks jaring so it needs to be subtle movement in and out
