<H2 CLASS="gmail_msg">REQUIREMENT: Bring a laptop & pre-install Photoshop (or similar software) & Spine 2D.</H2>
<P CLASS="gmail_msg">The traditional method for animating pixel art has always been frame by frame illustrations while 3D models used skeletal animations.</P>
<P CLASS="gmail_msg">Today, modern software like Spine 2D allows you to animate pixel art through the use of skeletal animations as well.Animating pixel art with skeletal animations is tricky but it comes with a lot of great benefits! Animations can look smoother, can be created faster & allow for easier sprite swapping. It creates an utterly unique & new look that's starting to define a new era of pixel art.</P>
