2D Animator
DALRI
Hi everyone, My name is DALRI, and I am a freelance animator.
Animation has been my passion since I was just 11 years old. From that age, my goal was always to master the art of Sakuga and make my way into the world of anime. That dream started to take shape at 19 when I got to work on short scenes for The Black Clover, and since then, I've had the opportunity to contribute to other notable anime projects.
Alongside the big projects, I've always been interested in freelancing and building my own ground to experiment with different ideas and techniques, constantly honing my abilities.
In this course, I want to show you the complete workflow of creating a dynamic action scene, talk about all the techniques that can make your animation come alive, and give you all the necessary information that will help you in the future to create animations of any complexity.

Interview with
2D Animator DALRI
I'm not going to just talk about the principles that are on YouTube and various other websites and leave everything to the students. Everyone knows about the 12 principles, but not everyone is a good animator. I'll tell you what I encountered while learning animation and what mistakes you need to avoid to get better. I will talk about the creation of animation from A to Z so that the student does not have any questions about where to start and how to develop further in the future.
My work in the industry began several years ago when I realized that animation was the coolest thing in my life. I started actively animating tons of frames every day on my phone with my finger, trying to figure out all the tricks of animation on my own, and I loved it. I took my favorite anime characters and tried to make them come alive. The more I animated, the more I found people who appreciated my work on Twitter, after which studios began to contact me to animate now for them that I encountered while learning animation and what mistakes you need to avoid to get better. I will talk about the creation of animation from A to Z so that the student does not have any questions about where to start and how to develop further in the future.
The answer to this will be love. This is not just a romanticization of animation; it is the key to success. If you knew all the principles of animation, various techniques, and an ideal drawing, you would not be able to become at least a good animator. Animation is not math; it's art. You don't need the most expensive animation software or the most expensive tablets to do good work. The minimum you need is hands, eyes, paper, and love to make them come alive. The more I animated, the more I found people who appreciated my work on Twitter, after which studios began to contact me to animate now for them that I encountered while learning animation and what mistakes you need to avoid to get better. I will talk about the creation of animation from A to Z so that the student does not have any questions about where to start and how to develop further in the future.
