How to Make an Animated Movie with Pictures

How to make a movie like this (below). And sorry about the outline of the hand getting thicker.

Drawing With Effects

 If you can't decide what to draw, but you want to draw something. You might have made something like these before. They are easy to do and make good backgrounds for things like computer backgrounds or blog backgrounds. To make one, all you have to do is make a bunch of scribbles, and use your drawing programs effects (if you only have MS paint, you can always just do scribbles). The first picture that I made (to the left), could look like a tunnel with different layers.

 Not sure what this one looks like (maybe something with scales?)

And this one has more of a comic book look.

Shading

 Shading adds extra dimension to almost any picture. To see the difference, I have a picture of an alligator that I drew before and after shading.


This is my first one, I did a bit of shading, but not much.

This is my second picture. As you can see I did more shading (and my room was a bit darker when I took this picture.

Notebook Covers

Maybe you need a notebook, but the only one you have has an annoying cover. Instead of going and buying a new one, why not make it a new cover? It is easy and cheaper (it might be best to make the paper the size of the front of the notebook before drawing, since it might not fit right). You can also make a back for it (I'm working on it now). You could also make a bunch of smaller pictures and glue them all too the front instead.

Wolf Picture

Right now, I am working on two pictures for an art contest at the airport I go to (I can only enter one picture, but I am making two to decide between). My first picture is of a wolf (almost done) and I will also be making an alligator. If you have any ideas for what colors to use for my wolf picture background, let me know.

Running Animals

You start by making an outline for your movie. The easiest way to do it, without the shape changing too much, is to erase the legs and draw them a different way on the second picture.

 Then you add color to your animal (an background if you want). And if you really wanted to, you could make it blinking as well. And like in the blinking one, you'll put the clips together to form a movie.
