Animation confession

Description

I'm feeling so ashamed... I've been using Flash for over 5 years primarily as a drawing tool, and yet I rarely ever use it as what everyone else use Flash for: As an animation tool.

The truth is that I have indeed tried attempting to create a cartoon of my own out of Flash, but to no avail. :dead: Every time I tried, these cartoons always ended-up never completed, not even reaching the 50% completion mark.

You could say that this is my first completed Flash cartoon ever.

The entire thing took me 2 hours to finish. It was created both as an animation practice... and also a way for me to vent my frustration for not being able to animate correctly like what the pros can. (I couldn't help it. I saw Ryanide's Flash animations, and already I envied his super smooth animation skills. :dead:)

Then again, I read from somewhere before that Flash was never meant as a cartoon animation tool in the first place. (It was primarily designed for web presentations.) Animators wishing to utilize Flash technology would need to get used with Flash's rather clanky environment. (I heard that Toon Boom Studio, another program also capable of exporting to SWF files, is better suited for that task.)

And yes, that's my voice. :XD: (And yes, you will never see Marwan the same way again, if you thought in the first place that his voice will be squeakier than you thought. :XD:)
