How to sync ANIMATION to MUSIC! | Stop-motion using dopesheets aka exposure sheets.
These are the techniques* I use to animate in sync with music or character dialog. I do stop-motion animation this way, but you can do traditional 2D cel animation, 3D character animation or any animation medium in which timing is required. LINKS: Kinetic Armatures (Winders and more): https://kineticarmatures.com/rigs-and… Knights of the Slice: https://www.knightsoftheslice.com/col… Onell Design: http://onelldesign.com/ * These techniques are not industry-standard necessarily – every studio will do their own thing – so it’s best to abide by their rules if you’re not an independent animator.

I’m a FULL-TIME… animator?
Can this be for real? With your help, yes indeed! I animate with DragonFrame software and the USB controller. The slider unit is by Edelkrone, and I’ll cover using that in a separate video. TACK-IT (gummy stuff used to make things stick): https://amzn.to/33pXZbm

I got a PROBE lens for stop-motion animation!
The Laowa Macro Probe is the craziest lens I’ve ever used! I cannot wait to produce more ANIMATION for y’all. (The “Anton’s Bait Shop” LEGO set was purchased back when it first came out. It is CRAZY EXPENSIVE now. Forgot to mention in the video!)

ASMR with tiny toys! (Binaural crinkling, plastic handling, no talking until very end.)
I’ve had several requests for ASMR videos, so here is my first serious attempt at making one. To be 100% honest, I’m far more comfortable capturing crinkles and plastic handling than I am trying to whisper in y’all’s ears.
