How to Make Your Own Animation

This wikiHow teaches you how to create an animated movie or presentation. The quickest way to make a digital animation is by using an online animator; however, keep in mind that most online animators require a paid subscription to unlock all of their features, meaning that your video's length, sound, and appearance will most likely be restricted unless you pay for an upgrade. If you're interested in traditional animation, you can put together a basic one by using anything from pen-and-paper animation techniques to GIFs.
