How to make MINIATURE roofing metal! | REAL QUICK
Here’s a quick and easy way to make miniature roofing metal. NOTE: This is what I call the “BARE MINIMUM”, because I literally just used hardened wire and a block of wood. But ideally some form of hardened metal edge embedded into a block of wood, with a matching grooved block of wood to receive it, would be ideal. FURTHERMORE, you can even add multiple Vs or even get crazy and build a CORRUGATED METAL jig! 😀 TOOLS & MATERIALS USED: * HARDENED WIRE: https://amzn.to/3kZGrIf METAL AVIATION SNIPS: https://amzn.to/3FAG2Fv MINI MATERIALS (CINDER BLOCKS): https://amzn.to/39cQfvQ AFFILIATE LINK NOTICE “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”

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!)
