Looking for 1-on-1 Cartoon Animator 5 Coach (Experienced Storyteller, Complete Animation Beginner)

Hi All,

I’m a 53-year-old former television journalist-turned-corporate communications video guy who has Cartoon Animator 5. I’m proficient in Premiere and FCP X. While I have a Master’s degree in Radio/Television Film (from waaaaaaay long ago), I love animation but have no confidence in creating anything. And I’m not a “YouTube” or “Udemy” learner. I’m old-school; I need someone actually teaching me, showing me what I’m doing right and wrong. I’m curious if anyone has recommendations for an instructor who could walk me through, step by step, creating a cartoon…ANY cartoon. I’d be up for taking a few classes via live feed if that was available. Raising kids, a full-time job, and even some freelance work just doesn’t allow time to surf the net or watch a ton of videos, only to get more lost. So any one-on-one instruction, or some kind of Reallusion “boot camp” would be awesome. Thank you!

Hi Jamie

Welcome to the forum.

Hopefully someone will reach out to you to offer the one to one training you are looking for.

However, you may also like to take a look at our collection of 2D Webinars which may of help. Webinars are much longer than the normal condensed tutorials and act more like a teacher taking your through the steps at a much slower pace. If you would like to take a look please click the link HERE.

Thank you, Pete! Much obliged! Finishing work and am going to start investigating!

While I can’t offer 1-on-1 coaching, I do have free and paid beginner Lazy Animator courses that may interest you. Whether you purchase or not I’m always happy to help anyone with their Cartoon Animator challenges via email. You’ll find my contact details on my Lazy Animator website in the links at the bottom of the page.
