I first began animating after seeing and learning of this magical program that would let even a simpleton like me live that glorious dream I had always wanted to live. Or truthfully I should say if it had not been for MACROMEDIA Flash version 5.

It is very likely that I would not be “an animator” if it had not been for Adobe Flash. Who really likes reading an editorial that plays it safe, though? Today I’ll be telling you why as an animator, you shouldn’t touch Adobe Flash with a ten-foot pole, and if it’s on your computer right now the “Delete” button should be your next move. Anticipation and Overshoots are Extremes, because. Normally the “right answer” is somewhere in the middle and not at the extremes An extreme keyframe is the moment where a change in direction occurs.

I try to keep a pretty level head about most topics, from the big ones to the small stuff.
