A comprehensive introduction to Friction Graphics for Vector Animation, Motion Graphics and Character Animation. This first look at Friction will answer questions you didn’t even know you had and help you flow with the tools at your disposal. Start with the essentials, learn to navigate the interface, create animations, modify the animation graph, create and work with multiple scenes. You’ll gain a solid understanding of the basics.
Friction Graphics is similar to After Effects in some regards, but the two are worlds apart in practice. If you want to create 2d vector animations for video or web, Friction Graphics has you covered. There’s no cost of entry, no watermarks, no registration required. Friction Graphics is Free and Open Source. It also supports shaders which are like plug-ins. You can create your own custom shaders, and the Friction website will ever help you understand how they work and how to create them.
