Howard Wimshurst tutorial Adobe Animate. If two characters are interacting then draw them at the same time going back and forth, but on different layers, so the interactions can be fully developed together. Make figures move and swing. Add motion blur lines. Bring in energy streaks like Ross Tran. Do streaks on ones, character on 2s and 3s, with redrawn resting poses that ‘breathe’. Can add lightning flash with reversed colours.
