How to Animate Textured 2D Characters #36


I forgot to mention at 6:25 that instead of making your own animated texture, you can use one of the After Effects presets by going to Layer — New — Solid, and dragging that new layer onto the timeline. Then from the Effects & Presets window, drag one of the Animation Presets — Backgrounds onto the layer.
