I am not an animator. Never knew such a thing as you have offered here was on youTube. I just happened to discover this tonight. Very good and interesting. Thank you.
Dude...seriously...you're recent tutorials are on an entirely different level! I've referenced your work before, and it's always been helpful; but these last 13 have been amazing! I appreciate all the hard work and effort you're putting into these. I'm learning so much and can't wait for your next videos!
aKiBlu Thanks I appreciate it! I definitely feel like my older tutorials could be so much better if I just made them a little more snappy and concise. I plan to redo many of them.
Awesome! I'm looking forward to those too now!
you are RECENT TUTORIALS

*Says that I don't have to memorize a bunch of stuff* *gives me a bunch of stuff to memorize*
😂 Well we are learning stuff in all, what did you expect :P
Just a joke. Stupid KZhead won't let me reply directly to replied on comments. MEMORIZE THAT, KZhead
Aha :P
More like "you don't have to memorize THIS much stuff. You can memorize a bit less stuff." :)
Just write it down

WALKING CARROT I LOVE VIGGYS
I've found that a looping walk cycle won't look slidey if you time the tween right. It can take some adjusting to get it right, but I do it all the time. Love this tutorial, by the way.
Yes, true, you can tweak the speed and distance to reduce the slide, but there are two other factors: the distance the foot travels in each frame has to be perfectly even, and often that is hard to predict. Also if you animate the cycle on twos and the tween is on ones, it will always appear to be sliding. But yeah if it's on ones and perfectly spaced then it works.
man this comment is old idk why i even wrote it
wut
Who are you
thank you helped me
you are really fucking good at teaching this shit
Thanks! lol

This tutorial is one of the best. Alan speaks well and gets to the point. He manages to provide a great amount of accurate information in 4 minutes of air time.
I believe this is the most informal in Alan's series. It helped me a lot! Thanks Alan, and keep doing what you're doing!
I don't know why this is so difficult for me!
Dude i'm thinking exactly the same ^^, but yea animating truy is something you need to practice again and again
Les jeremyades du lascar Lol its easy once you try simple animating then go on to hard animating to get better. I'm already halfway good at it.
Halfway good ?! i would love to see that :D. Did you upload stuff on the internet ?
I just released my first animation :D, if i could have your opinion on it it would be awesome :)
I agree, if you check on my newest vid on my KZhead channel, the walking has gone terribly wrong.
YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOO GOOD AT ANIMATING, I WANNA BE LIKE YOU WHEN I'M OLDER
ComradeStalin me too
Well, your older. Are you?
It’s good to practice instead of praising someone for being good
@@YosefReborn no homo but ily bro its rare to see this kind of comment on yt
FREED O0 huh?
Thank you so much for this! It really helped me out on an animation I'm trying to do. Your explanation was clear, easy to understand and the examples you gave visually really put across what you were explaining! Thanks again!
Love and appreciate the fact that you explain so SO well of why contact pose is called a contact pose and passing pose as a passing pose. My professors just straight up say now let’s do contact passing up down etc poses without explaining what they mean or what they are. It’s not very motivating not knowing what they mean. Not knowing the real meaning makes me feel rushed. Like either just go with the flow and do it without completely understand the concepts of why we need those poses or fail. Great explanation. Such a life savor.
awesome tutorial. feel so much more comfortable with them already after watching and trying it myself.
Thank you! I am a beginner cartoonist and this will really help make my characters look like they're actually walking instead of awkwardly lunging across town XD
This is one of the best animation tutorials! You got to the point without any excess info but not excluding important info.
Great mini-lesson. I show this to my high school animation students each year!
Probably the best Walkcycle video i've seen so far. great job!
Super helpful! I want to become an animator and I know I need to master the walk cycle first, and this was straight to the point, and so much shorter than other less helpful tutorials which lets me have more time to practice. 42/10 tutorial.
Great tutorial Alan really clear and you do a great job of breaking down the poses needed, why and how to utilize them! Keep up the good work!
This is a good tutorial without uhms and ahms , no sordid background sounds clear voice...very well done; the walking carrot is quaint. Thank you very much.
I guess I wasn't _completely_ off when I tried making a walk cycle... xD Great tutorial Alan! :D

Thank you so much for uploading these videos! They are soooo helpful and since I can't afford to go to college you've been my sensei
Thank you! I had to watch this a couple times to memorize the poses though, but it helped a lot! Now I can make a decent walk cycle!
Concise, informative, and technical with more than adequate visual aid. Very helpful, 5/5

Oh wow!! Just Wow!!! You're tutorials are amazing!! I love them so much!! I love the 12 principles of animation and now this video is so thorough, and detailed in the ways of adding some more depth and personality to a character's walk cycles. I'll be rewatching this video a few times for sure! ;) Thanks for making another amazing tutorial! :D
Honestly thank you so much for making this, ive been having trouble with walk cycles for a while (im a beginning animator) and this video is helping me so much!!
thanks, as a 3d animator i can animate many things but a walk cycle oddly enough, is the hardest thing for me. This actually gave me a few tips i didn't know yet, and thanks for that!
this tutorial is never gets old!

@@Black_Ghost69 you slander me 😂👍🏻
I always sort my walk cycles into groups. (i may be a ten year old child learning from stuff on the internet but my animations are just above terrible.) It goes: Right straight, Left at an angle, Right at an angle, Left straight. Easy as that.
Reza Koplak406 pfft lol
@Reza Koplak406 im 13 and i can animate a bouncing slime and a walkign kirby

Thanks a lot. Really splendid effort to explain. I can imagine the pain you must have gone thru to make this.
so dang helpful! :)
I literally forgot that this was Alan Becker for almost the entire video
I didnt knew this was that easy, you cant imagine how much i tried before watching this video You are a true savior.
This is the best video that explains walk cycles and it's under 4 minutes, wow thank you very much :) - Digital Cartoons
"It can sometimes look mechanical and slidey, like a video game character." As I'm using this for a video game character.
1:00 use this as reference for your animations!
I am not even an animator, but this was so fun and helpful! Thank you for putting this together!
im still horrid at animating walk and run cycles. im glad i have your videos for reference. your a fantastic animator! :D
2:35 i was looking for sad depressed walk thanks
and lemme tell u a secret in 8 and I use blender 2.8 and me dad is buying one of those art tablets that u can plug into your pc and animate for Christmas and I cant WAIIITTT!!!
0:23 Bruh all i had to do was pause that and just draw them legs and reapet it THATS ALL I FRIGGEN NEEDED XD
This is invaluable and concise..thank you very much!
Thank you for making this video, im working on developing my animation techniques and this has proven really helpful on what i need to do next 😊🖒

I’m a beginner so may I ask at 1:27, how do you do that. Also in everyday animation how is it possible to create a bigger scene but then move the camera around
Thanks found this really helpful! especially when trying to animate walks with emotion!
So much useful information in such a short amount of time!
2:08 so cool
When I grow up, I want to be an animator like you.
You deserve an award for being the best at explaining a walking tutorial
Great tutorial. Your very precise and what you say correlates to what is being shown on the screen.

This was beautiful bro thank you i needed this
My goal is to make a 60 FPS 1 minute Stickman fight.
60 FPS? Good luck.
Sans the Moral Compass Thanks man, that means 3600 Frames for a 1 minute animation.
Sans the Moral Compass It is definetly gonna take a while, and yes, special effects will be in.
The1upanimator Thanks, I hope it will be done by Chirstmas!

Great explination, a boost to any new animator
Dude why do you have such awesome tutorials and tips. Keep it up
Me getting this video on recommendation after 6 years
i barely downloaded toon boom the other night, bought my first digital graphic tablet, and all i made was a ball bouncing across the cress for 3 seconds...like...watching this is intimidating to me. hopefully ill be bale to learn something..
ToonBoom is good imo but tutorials are hard to find
thanks for the confidence, its going to take a while before i can really do anyhting but ill get there
Try using Pivot Stick figure Animator first. You could practice animating without having to draw.
Starting my first flipbook animation today and this is really helping me out! Thank you for a great video!
thank you for this video! it is like the most useful and concise videos i have seen in tutorials. awesome man :)
Oh my god why is this so hard to make ;-;
2:08 Me walking home from school
By watching your tutorials i can make my first full lenght flash animation where a stick figure runs and falls. Thank you Alan.
This helped me so much, I needed to learn the walk cycle for an animation I’m doing and this helped a lot
