Animating in photoshop was not easy to understand until I looked into tutorial and practiced in photoshop my self, I prefer to draw traditionally and place the drawings into photoshop and colour them because I feel it is easier to create an animation with good motion and I think it improves the quality of your drawing by far based on the tools it possess.
Flip book animation is very enjoyable because it allows you to be free in animating, it is traditional and fun. It works like an normal animation and allows you to test animation but develop your skills in animating. This was the first methodI learnt and it helped me understand the 12 principles through practicing.
Beavis and Butt-head is a classic, full of jokes and classic comedy they always get into trouble and are made to look very stupid, this is shown through voice and commentary. I personally like it for the jokes, physic and build of the characters.
Maya is a very good package, I have mainly practiced modelling characters in this package and have enjoyed using it but I feel that I prefer traditionally drawing 2D the package is complicated but this tutorial allowed me to practice moving, modelling and stretching an object. I mainly referred to this because it allowed me to develop and understanding when using this package and gave be grasp of how to model and the basics of modelling. The tutorial talks you through giving your character a body and a walking cycle.
