5 2D Animation Hacks You Need to Know Now

2D is one of the most popular and versatile animation techniques today. It is used for cartoons and animated movies as well as commercial video content, ads, explainer videos, and much more!

Quality video content can significantly increase the conversion of your marketing campaign, attract new followers, and make your brand more recognizable. And 2D animation turns out to be the most efficient and versatile type of such content. That is why more and more brands, businesses, and organizations seek quality 2D animation services today.

The world of 2D animation is fraught with various hacks and animation methods that turn flat, lifeless sketches into impressive, realistic, and relatable video content.

Let’s go over some of them with creators from Prayan Animation – one of India’s leading 2D animation studios.

Plan every detail and stay in control

As simple as 2D animation may seem, at first sight, it is one of the most complicated animation techniques in multimedia. In fact, it is pretty easy to get carried away in the process and fail to create distinctive and relatable characters.

Make sure to plan everything thoroughly, from color patterns and style to every scene and movement. Which features should be emphasized in each character? Why do they need to move in a certain manner? Which message are you translating through the animated video?

It is best to make notes and discuss every detail, especially when you address 2D animation services.

Emotional attachment

Experts say that 2D animation is so efficient among various audiences mainly because it manages to create certain emotional attachments. In other words, it is most expressive, engaging, and not boring.

Facial expression and body language are most important in this case. Don’t be afraid to exaggerate gestures, movements, and facial expressions; make characters intense and recognizable; that is the best way to make a viewer notice and remember your content and therefore, your message.

Good 2D animation works even without a voiceover

Ask your 2D animation services provider to show the finished visuals without the voiceover. It is best to show it to someone who does not originally know what the video is supposed to be about. If the message is mostly clear and understandable even without narration, and the characters are expressive and relatable enough, then your 2D animation is a success.

Don’t get lost in clean-ups

We all know that the original customer’s requests and the final product released after all the adjustments and clean-ups rarely have much in common. However, it is essential to stick to the original ideas and concepts whether you order or provide 2D animation services.

At the same time, the clean-up stage helps to get rid of extra details and make the final video the most eloquent and efficient. You may want to go through this phase several times, but make sure to keep the original notes and briefs in sight to avoid getting carried away.

There are no unimportant details

Last, but not least, take a look at the big picture. Make sure that the whole content is made using matching animation techniques. See that the animation methods look harmonic and homogeneous even if a big team of animators was working on your 2D animation services.

There are no unimportant details in animation, and every small deviation will look like an alien body and destroy the whole atmosphere if you miss it.

Final thoughts

2D animation is not as “flat” as some may think. It is a versatile and multifunctional animation method that can serve all sorts of purposes: from entertainment to education and marketing.

Do you want to learn more about 2D animation and its benefits for all sorts of video content strategies? Or maybe you are looking for the best 2D animation services? Contact Prayan Animation. This studio has more than a decade of experience in working with all sorts of illustration and animation techniques and also has helped multiple brands and content creators worldwide discover and embrace the benefits and secrets of 2D animation.

Interview: Super Sema Animators Take Us Into the Unknown

To celebrate the release of Super Sema Season 3 on Youtube Originals, we were able to have a chat with a magnolious creative artist, Anu M George, who is a rank-holder from M.G.University and has worked on popular animation projects like Super Sema, Fukrey Boyzzz, Little Singham, Purple Turtle and MJ3 (Toon Boom). She has got a hands-on experience with Adobe Animate, Photoshop, Illustrator, Corel Draw, and Toon Boom throughout her colorful career. She rightly says, “Drawing is one aspect but the animation is something, which gives life to it.”

Anu M George, Animator, Prayan Animation Studio

How did you get involved in Animation?

I am one of the many animators out there who began drawing at a young age. As soon as my brain transitioned from consuming crayons to scrawling images, I was hooked on that art of creativity. Actually, my sister had an animation course at her school and I used to help her with it, this is where I learned and developed my skills and landed up here nurturing my passion.

As an adolescent, I clearly remember pausing my favorite animated movies and imitating the images I saw on the screen, especially the hilarious breakdown and in-between drawings that made me chuckle. I nearly felt like drawing and animation were the same thing. The live-action adventure movies I used to watch truly ignited my passion for graphic design, animation, and other aspects of filmmaking.

As an Animator, what does your day look like?

As I tend to be a morning person, I like to get in the studio before the cacophony of the day begins to get into that groove. When a Sema episode is actively in production, it’s not unusual for the entire day to pass while animators work on a single shot, with only perhaps two or three check-ins with supervisors and directors throughout the week. Meetings with supervisors frequently take place in a formal setting that strives to be efficient with everyone’s time to discuss how much the animation is capturing the point of the moment in the film.

What are the most challenging and enjoyable parts of illustration?

Whenever I’m sketching, I’m genuinely thrilled. The day just seems to fly by. When you finish a sketch, you leave a piece of yourself behind because it expresses something about you. An excellent drawing will inspire others and spark their creative spirits when people see it and say, “Aah, now this is something that ignites me to come up with ideas.”

According to you, what makes a film stand out?

A personal viewpoint that is supported by tasteful style, sound, and timing. I’ll always want to see more a movie that blends humor with sincerity and drama with comedy. Every project I’ve worked on has involved amazing people, tasks for which I am immensely thankful, and experiences that I will remember for the rest of my life.

Super Sema Animation

We learned a lot while working on Super Sema. With regard to our process, we got most of them right but made a few blunders as well. With Sema, we got an opportunity to use all that we learned in preproduction and production. We wanted to deliver stories as efficiently as possible so that every last penny would be spent on that screen.

A secret recipe to decode a successful Animation project!

Quality video content, especially animated content, is the key to success in the modern world driven by media and communication. Animation production has grown into a huge industry with limited applications that invent and master new tools and technologies every day.

However, just like any other trend, the use of animated content is becoming more and more competitive, making it harder to create a truly successful animated project that will hit its goal.

In this article, we shall explain how to easily decode a successful animation project and walk you through the essential animation production steps to help you get the most out of it and the opportunities it offers.

Stick to your Animation Technique

Eye Roll By Lucas via Giphy

Integrity is vital for a successful animation video. Follow through the 2D animation steps if this is what you choose to make sure that the visuals are seamless.

However, with all the limitless possibilities of the modern motion graphics process, try to limit your animation techniques and stick to signature aesthetics.

Not only will it help you easily work out your signature style, but it is also a great way to save time and money on animation production.

Set the Tone with a Tune

Loop Mood By Noelia via Giphy

Successful animation is not all about visuals. The atmosphere and the emotions it encourages are created by other elements as well. A soundtrack is extremely important if you want to create a successful animation project.

Sometimes creators pick the soundtrack when the animation production is almost over. In other cases, music can even be the inspiration for the whole project. However, music and sound effects are extremely important. They make your video content catchy and memorable.

Stake on visual puns

Obey Me via Giphy

Animated videos are so successful because they are relatable, digestible, and simply… fun! That is why a successful animation process is all about visual puns rather than long dialogues. These short and sometimes random moments add humor and action, keeping the viewers` attention.

Short Gags make it Lively

Prank Hit by Aum via Giphy

Whether your animation video is meant for entertainment, marketing, or education, adding short gags to the scripts during the animation production is a great idea. Whitty and memorable jokes add dimension to the character, classic “knock-knock” -er will lighten the mood and a specific joke with professional slang works great for explainer videos, making them more relatable and digestible.

Find the best Animation Studio for your Project.

When choosing your animation studio, make sure to check out our portfolio and contact us to find out whether our aesthetics and experience correlate with the needs and goals of your animation project.

For example, Prayan Animation Studio lets you see the whole range of our services and previous projects on our website, communicate with the artists, and discuss the project thoroughly before putting it to work.

Keeping a grip on the latest trends in animation, the artists and designers of Prayan Animation Studio prefer to create unique products instead of following mainstream concepts. It allows us and our customers to stand out in the competition, offering viewers truly original and successful animated content.
