You may remember those little animated flipbooks that made it possible to recreate the effect of a cartoon by quickly passing pages. Eatmyart is an online utility that uses the principle for Help you and your students create small animations from handmade drawings.
It’s easy to do, it’s free and your students will love it.
How to create an animation from handmade drawings?
Eatmyart is very simple to understand and use. There is no need for long instructions for use. The site offers a series of models or models to print. Each of them is composed of several boxes.
The aspiring artist must draw in black or colour with his or her pencils, felt-tip pens or paint in each box, trying to break down a movement. Once this work is done, you will have to take a photo, with a smartphone, for example, of the model and upload it to the Eatmyart website.
A click later, the site will send you an animation in GIF format that you can display on the screen, download, send by email or embed on a site or blog.
The site goes further and also offers you to apply animation or artistic effects to your animation and then recreate new versions.
If you liked Animated Drawings, which also allows children’s drawings to be animated, you will love Eatmyart. The tool and the site are free of charge and ad-free.
