Animate Your Cartoons Faster with The Lazy Animator’s Blueprint to Removing Overwhelm Even If You’re a Beginner
When I first imagined The Lazy Animator’s Blueprint to Animating Your Cartoons Faster I wanted to create an ebook guide for anyone who wanted to get started in animation but was concerned it would be too overwhelming and too much work.
The truth is, you can get started telling your own stories and ideas using very limited animation. Quite often we’re talking virtually still images and little to no movement. If you have heard of the very successful category of ‘Storytime’ animation on YouTube that’s exactly the style of animation those channels use.
However, once I’d finished my ebook I realized my blueprint could also help with overwhelm for more experienced animators, who haven’t yet found a workflow that lets you see the finish line right from the start.
Streamlined Workflow Blueprint – Always Know Your Next Step
If you’re a beginner it will step you through the entire workflow, including three different methods for the actual animation part:
- Reaction Cards – the fastest method with the least amount of animation.
- Paper Doll – not literally paper dolls but digital cut outs of your character you can pose.
- Animation Software with Time Saving Features – Reallusion’s Cartoon Animator.

When you’re done you’ll have learned the complete workflow to creating animated shorts fast. Should 30 seconds sound too short, simply break your projects up into 30 second blocks to get longer animations done without getting overwhelmed, or bogged down by the workflow.
If you’ve already learned how to do some animation but are finding yourself not finishing projects, or stalling because it’s all just taking too much time. The Lazy Animator’s Blueprint to Animating Your Cartoons Faster can help you streamline your workflow into a system of completing 30 second blocks. Combined with the checklist worksheet you’ll always know where you’re at in the process and what the next step is.
Make Consistent Animations in Days Not Weeks
The Blueprint’s strongest application is for anyone wanting to start or streamline a YouTube Animation Channel by consisently uploading animated shorts. Using The Lazy Animator’s Blueprint to Animating Your Cartoons Faster you potentially could upload a 30 second animated short daily (without even using AI).
If that seems a lot then animating and uploading a 30 short three times a week is certainly doable – especially if you theme them around the same characters and reuse backgrounds. You could even start your own micro drama series!
