He’s a contributor to a number of journeys on the platform, his most recent being “Getting Started with Paperless Animation with Harmony Advanced and Premium” - aimed at artists who just acquired the software and want to get going immediately. Toon Boom’s Learn Portal offers lessons for animators of all skill levels. “A lot of people say they don’t have time to learn a new software, which is totally understandable. I’m hoping the ‘Getting Started’ journey I created moves fast enough for people to take 30 minutes out of their day to try out and learn Toon Boom,” says Jones.īeing mostly a frame-by-frame animator, Jones has also used the Learn Portal to upskill his own rigging abilities. When developing content for the platform, he tries to go through each step one-by-one as clearly and briefly as possible - he knows firsthand how busy animators are, after all. “If animators are migrating to Toon Boom from another software, the Learn Portal is a great place to start.
