This is the king of tutorial/training/online school that you need to do in your site:

Because nobody is doing that, (is there is somebody I want to know :)
you are a classical animator! I just grew up watching your lines in all disney movies, this style is dying and I don’t know if you know how many people want to learn this.
***maybe can be and online school, (you can use Adobe Connect) to do the classroom live. classes 2 times per week, first day the class, second day homework review. payment monthly…up to 8 students per session…..from zero to hero….from basics of drawing to digital classical animators…and maybe cut out animation too, with toon boom animate (you can find another person to teach this :)
there is NOT an “animationmentor.com” for 2D animation!
a lot of artist are doing 2d painting tutorials for free/paid online, but no one is doing animation 2d.
I will be the first one to sign!! and after you can build a team of freelance from the same students…….. that can help you in any 2d animation project in the future like the movie that you are working on………… :) always you can see the big picture…….
**and of couse affordable prices too………
I am doing a 2 years 3D animation online training using maya…….because nobody is doing it for 2d animation………………
