SECOND REQUEST FINISHED... SO MANY LAYERS... This animation had the most layers I've ever used, it doesn't look like much, but it took around 50 layers to get this going properly...

This request for the awesome :icontheredsofwin: who requested "CHEESECAKE FIGHTERS IN SPACE WITH HAMSTERS!" Hope you like it man!

Music is from the final boss on Crash Twinsanity.

Yeah, I see how you would have to use so many layers. Might I suggest doing parts of the animations within the symbols? Or maybe even adding smaller symbols into larger symbols? Doing this will decrease the amount of layers in your main timeline (:

I actually was that's the sad things, the whole thing has I think about 8 movie clips all with about 3-7 layers each, the only problem was it was difficult to make changes to time some of the symbols properly, for example the cheesecakes coming in are movie clips with about 7 layers each but at the point where the middle one shoots and spits I had to animate that outside of the movie clip in order for it to be timed correctly.

Honestly, most of the anim was just tweens and very little FbF, It didn't look like it'd take THAT much layers to make it. But I suggest putting more FbF in the anim.

Oh yeah it was almost completely tweens, after my last animation [link] I didn't really feel like doing frame by frame, I see nothing wrong with tweens since they are created in order to make animating easier. I used to think tweening was lazy but after actually taking an animation class (albeit extremely beginner) I realized tweening is a fundamental part of animation.

Hell yeah, I've used a Twinsanity song for most of my newer animations.
