Open Letter to Animating: Why are you the worst?

In recent events, someone has reached out to hire me to animate a short clip from her podcast. It's common for people to hear cartoonist and assume that means I'm an animator, so I told her my animating skills were very basic at best but she was satisfied with basic and still wants me to do the animation. I think it'll be a great skill to learn but, as I've always known it to be, animating is SUPER hard.

As practice for the upcoming project, I decided to animate a quote from one of my favorite podcasts, "My Favorite Murder". The quote is: "Here's the thing, fuck everyone."

Can't wait for you post, it seems interesting. I have one advice for you, when making posts try to add detailed process images and explanations :)

Definitely, something I need to work on! For a writer who has no issue coming up with stories to illustrate, I sure have difficulty writing about the process of it all. But I'm working on it :)
