What software do I need to make cartoons?

3d scanner video image

Jimmy

I want to make animated cartoons, but am not sure what software I need. What software is best to draw the characters and backgrounds? Once I draw the characters do I then put them into Adobe Flash to make a cartoon?

Answer
You can use any of these FREE Cartoon Animation Softwares.........

Pencil : http://www.pencil-animation.org/
Pencil is an animation/drawing software for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animation (cartoon) using both bitmap and vector graphics. Pencil is free and open source.

Synfig Animation Studio : http://synfig.org/
Synfig is a powerful, industrial-strength vector-based open-source 2D animation software package, designed from the ground-up for producing feature-film quality animation with fewer people and resources.2D Animation has traditionally been very expensive because every frame must be drawn by hand. Even with today´s digital inking and painting software, the process still relies on individuals hand-drawing each frame. This laborious task is called "tweening".Synfig eliminates the task of manual tweening, producing smooth, fluid motion without the animator having to draw out each frame individually. This allows you to produce 2D animation with fewer people while producing art of a higher quality.

Tapptoons Linetester : http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/tapptoons/index.htm
The Tapptoons Linetester enables animators to use a scanner or video camera (with compatible capture card) to input animation images into a standard PC and edit their work, adding soundtrack and color if they wish and to output the result as a Windows AVI. Can be used for puppet animation as well as drawn animation.

eDrawings : http://www.edrawingsviewer.com/
eDrawings is a freeware utility which will give the user the power to view, create and share 3D models and 2D drawings. eDrawings offers unique capabilities like point-and-click animations that make it easy for anyone with a PC to interpret and understand 2D and 3D design data.

How do you make a laptop faster?

Q. Hi, i dont know anything about laptops and want to buy one, how do you make it run faster?

Thanks.

Answer
1. Run Defrag on the disk
2. Get SpyBot and clean up all spy-ware.
3. Use AVG free virus scanner; un-install McAfee or Norton they are both terribly slow
4. Disable any Windows Services you do not use
5. Disable any Windows start-up items (such as AOL toolbar, Quicktime startup, Yahoo Instant Messenger start-up..) you don't use
6. Upgrade you memory if under 2GB...if you don't have that much as have Windows Vista and don't want to pay the price of new memory, buy a USB stick of size 2GB and let Vista use it as extra memory
7. Run XP instead of Vista (a good bit faster)...or stop running Windows and run Linux instead (it's MUCH faster)
8. Turn off any fancy visual desktop themes (especially under XP)
9. If 3D graphics run slowly, buy a new video card (Nvidia 8600GT/ATI X1300 or better)
---------------------------
Only if you've done all the above and they fail to improve speed enough...should you consider buying a faster computer.
Don't bother overclocking, it will realistically only give a 10% difference in speed on most machines and will often ruin a machine over a couple of years, even if done "smartly".
