      Here's the first finished version:
      Tutorial
      Its a 1.2mb PDF

      I'm going to add more stuff in regard to adding titles, effects, editing etc. but not just yet.

      Please be critical and point out anything that's not clear, misspelt etc.

            I'm just getting into animation so this was extremely helpful. I've been looking for a program to use for exactly this sort of thing so I'll check out the Adobe program you mention. If that flicker thing works at all it'll be well worth the money!

            I can't wait for your following tutorials!

                  Paul do you have a link to any avi you have created with this method?
                  I would be really interested to see a comparison of this method and standard SU animation.

                    Wow if there was an award for the most detailed tutorial this should be it. Great tutorial, thank you.

                      Dear Paul or anyone who may be able to help,

                      I have used your tutorial to create several very smooth animations. However I am now onto the biggest and I am struugling. I am trying to import the files and have checked 'numbered stills' yet it keeps on just importing the first file as a still. Any advice?

                      Kind regards,

                      Sadz

                            Does anyone have any videos that can show us they were done using this technique?

                              Well, when we are at Paul, have a look at his latest opus here (and note that as all YouTube videos, this has definitely lost from its original quality upon uploading and converting) http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=192264#p192264
