How I Made This 2D Animation in Blender Grease Pencil

Sketchbook by Autodesk is pretty good!

Insane animation.
Never expected to see a Blender tutorial this understandable. You certainly know what you are doing.

This was great!!! Keep up the awesome work. I watched it once at work and now I'll watch it again after starting my initial drawing. Thanks for all the awesome tips.

how much dpi you used for this long canvas? and also thank you so much, I'm currently following this tutorial for my animation project .....teheee i'm gonna tag you when it's done😊

I wanna start animation but always got too overhelmed. This is so helpfull thank you

I've always dream on creating my own animation..🥲🥰 so thank you so much!!❤

Omg thank you I was losing my mind to import a background

It took me 12 minutes to see a mini kd peeking at us

Please do you teach? I want to learn

Hello! KD, love your animations hope more guidance...

Your drawings are really beautiful, both the backgrounds and the characters. The final animation is truly amazing. I'm just sorry that the flight of the seagull is superimposed on the shot of the girl with the dog, making the camera a little dead, and honestly with all the work you've done I would have slowed it down a bit to be able to enjoy it better. Sorry, it's just my opinion, but you're definitely a professional and this is immediately evident from the videos you make. Compliments.

I just started using Blender to animate for my 2d class after I ran into a few road blocks on Krita - can I ask why you made the backgrounds in Krita instead of straight in Blender? I'm super new to this, so thank you! Could you have made the same backdrops straight in Blender? I'm trying to figure out how to fast track my process.

wow, but how did you get the sound effects without copyright?

Wow, I just love this ❤️❤️

I liked the process. I have a question here we can create the same 2D animation in any software out there like Premier, Animate, etc. Why should we use blender for 2d animations?

Sketchbook is amazing & FREE!

Hey kd I have a question: so I own tv paint and after effects, my after subscription ends soon, due to not being able to afford it any more, I use after effects for plugins such as add line boils to background assets (objects in the background of my animations) pngs. Just wanted to know if blender or any other free software supports an automated line boil plug-in which adds the boils with your having to redraw the same image. Thank you

Love your tutorials thank you so much but i have one question can reuse frame by frame drawn stroke animation ? for example i draw frame by frame walk animation then i use it on other project is that possible please provide guidance ??

Inspiring. Suscribed!

you are amazing! ❤❤❤❤

why I can't change from object mode to draw mode?

You're amazing! I've been learning Blender for motion graphics for the past few months, and I mostly use the 3D part. However, I've been an illustrator for much longer, and now that I'm familiar with Blender, I'm looking to use the 2D tools to start my first proper animation project, instead of just motion design.

But I wanted to ask you something: why not create the entire scene directly in Blender? Do you think it's too much work? I like to reduce the number of software tools in my workflow, and I use Photoshop, but I would love to create the scene directly in Blender. Actually, I had an idea of creating the scene in 3D and exploring that mode where the outlines stand out, called cell shading. I still need to learn how to use it, but that's my goal.

However, I would love to see some of your work where the scene was created entirely in Blender, as it seems like the tools are good enough to create a great-looking scene.

I'm eagerly waiting for your response.

I love your channel!!!

Love it! Amazing work!

I'm in film school and I'm trying out animation for the first time for my final project. It's so scary and confusing but this video has simplified it and helped me to understand more than any other has. Thank you for this! The finished piece was amazing.

I would love a super in-depth tutorial for complete beginners. Your info is great and your animation is great. Solid stuff over here. Any chance you'll be teaching more 2D stuff with Blender?

Loved the video! How long did this animation take from start to finish?

Holy cow, your voice and walk through is incredible.

LOVE your animation and process videos KD! ❤ im just starting out using greasepencil with my huion tablet and im wondering if you came across a pop-up that appeared whenever you draw a stroke in greasepencil and how to disable it? It cuts off the start of my linework with a pop-up box showing the radius strength and active layer. Any help would be appreciated! Looking forward to new videos from you 🎉

I can’t find draw mode😭plz help me

How much Time it took to do the complete animation?

Been getting into animation lately but I've only tried Krita and OpenToonz, I'm a bit afraid of Blender complexity lol. After seeing the whole process on this video it doesn't seem as daunting as I imagined. So thank you for this!

2. when i import a image as a plane my draw mode disappears but i see you useing it after how do you do that?

What is the recommended workflow to string together multiple scenes? As in completely different backgrounds/characters etc?
is it feasible to do the background drawings in blender aswell? or would you recommend using photoshop or similar for that?

love the process so much..

Borderline genius

But usefull video I am country of india

thank you this is better than the other 2d blender video another dude was just trying to sell me a tablet i couldnt afford the whole time.

Medibang is a great free drawing app I use it for my digital art all the time

Maybe, better to animane shapes in AE?

Thanks for sharing this, really helpful tips!
