What other ways are there to get the distressed edges of the objects like in this illustration apart from Roughen? Would setting the stroke to a distressed brush work? Any other methods?
People just use textured Photoshop and Clip Studio brushes, brah.
Anyone else here new to animation?
I'm ok with Adobe An, but I simply don't have them monies to dish up every month so I came here asking if there were cheaper, or even free alternatives I could use to hone my skillz?
pic unrelated, it's a pic I made minor edits to to be better for using as a desktop

>new to animation?
Been animating for the last 10 years
>Adobe An
Never tried it since I despise Flash. I use AfterEffects and ToonBoom (which can both be easily torrented).
>free alternatives

Do you think its worth it to pay for the creative suite?
>>268120
only if you cash out while doing so. for example if you use the entire suite and not just ps/ai and/or if your clients and potential clients have a way of noticing that you are using the best and update software package for gd.

Just a little something. What do you guys think?
It's a few basic shapes in Illustrator. What am I supposed to critique here?
I know you probably worked hard on this, but that's not how design works. What purpose does this serve? Who was it made for, why, what need does it fulfill? Why did you choose those colours, why is the stem so thin, why are there random shapes cut out of the pedals, etc.
>>267765
Petals.

I don't know man I'm a designer, not a fuckin' botanist.
Just out of curiosity, how many of you make money off this using pirated software? Have you ever run into trouble for it?
>>267678
pic related?
>>267680
No, just a logo design I saw online that I thought was nice and figured I'd share alongside my question.
>>267681
Thank you so much for sharing this interesting and thought provoking design.
You know I browse this place, as well as Behance, dribbble and other work sharing sites but I have never seen this logo. Which is odd because this logo is so incredible and inspiring.
Once again thank you for this. +1
A. why
B. fix it
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING FIX IT THIS DOES NOT NEED TO BE FIXED IT WORKS EXACTLY AS INTENDED
>>267573
are they the same because they're all rip-offs of an original yelling guy
or do yelling guys just sell

Good luck with that...

>>266813
I'd make more money selling them on my own on a those T-shirt sites.
Yeah know, you got a good concept but what
>>266815 said. That shit isn't a pro rate, so you're likely not gonna get pro work, if any at all.
>Thank you for contacting me today. I will be sending further correspondence to keep you updated. As always, you can always call us and ask questions.
>We shall see you on Monday, at 10:30 am for your group interview.
>group interview
What does he mean by this?
>>268083
>being this dense
my guess is you have a group interview on monday at 10:30 unless words stopped having the same meaning they've had forever and nobody told me
>>268090
I'm retarded and this is my first job interview. What's a group interview? Do they pack everyone in one room, or does the group refer to the employers?
What does gd think of this mock financial dashboard interface I made for a pitch at work?
It's a fake name.

Is after effects used to make this animated infographic?
How long would it take to learn after effects, the basics (learned basic to some advanced photoshop and illustrator stuff in a week)?
>>267994
it could be a ae or ps animation. as you said it really depends of your motivation i've been using ae for 5 years but there's some stuff i don't mess around too much (expressions and element 3d) it also depends on what you want to do with it for example video editing, motion graphics, gifs animations, ux, etc. one way to get really good would be making a new and different project everytime you'll end up learning a lot of different things.
here's some of the things you should look for
- keyframes
- precomp's
- wiggle expression
- camera tracker
- graph editor (look for ECAbrams on yt)
- helpful plugins (like Frischluft Lenscare, Duik, Twixtor, Plexus, Twitch, RSMB, Ease and wizz, Optical Flares, Trapcode's, etc)
also didn't someone post this infographic a few months ago claiming it was his work?
>>267998
nah man I posted this infographic a few months ago asking for cool infographics cause it was an extra credit assignment and I needed inspo but didn't do the assignment but this semester it's an assignment and when I make stuff I have to make it look really professional otherwise I don't turn it in and fail because I'm a perfectionist
>>268013
you're a perfectionist with that grammar?

I'm working on a cookbook design for class. Doing it as a zine. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but should I be using capitals or lowercase for 'a zine of'?
>>267963
capital only on the first letters including the first a. also the color saturation/vibrance makes it boring
>>267966
thanks for the reply, how do you think I could improve the colours?
>>267967
well, if you're in photoshop use the magic wand selection tool on the pieces and duplicate each. then add a new vibrance and saturation adjustments layers on top of every single one. and set them to clipping mask (right-click on the layer) and adjust each individually. however don't over edit them.

I spent a few days making a 2d art piece of Casey Neistat. Everything was hand made except for his hair, eyebrows, and ears. Those were mostly the cutout effect in PS. What do you guys think about it?
I dislike how the level of detail is very different when you compare above and below his shades.
But i did instantly recognize nicedad, so good job.
Yeah, I totally see that. Thanks for the feedback.
>>266953
i completely deslike vector art. it has to be really really done to perfection so it doesnt look automated and gimmicky. why not go the whole length and do a digital art illustration? as for your piece, it could use some more personality on shape definition.it really looks it came out of vector magic or something, don't mean to hate, tho
What do you guys think?
>>265856
Terrible
>>265878
How can I improve? It's for an anime site.
>>265882
That double-headed dildo going through the AS needs to change. Looks aside it adds nothing to the image that says "ANIME". The font is boring and looks childlike.
The logo needs to make someone go on first glance "hey this logo is for anime site!"
