(Or so that you, yourself, can remember what it was you wanted to do?)<\/p>\n<h3>\nEasier Said than Done<\/h3>\n<p>First, you make your spacing guides.

Just examine the lower one, marked &#8220;HEAD&#8221; for now. This scene is all on two&#8217;s (i.e., two exposures per drawing), so all the drawing numbers are odd numbers&#8211;1,3,5, etc. If you see even numbers, probably something is being animated on one&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>These are the actual guides I drew on my extreme drawing no. 1. They were done for my own use, and I see at this moment that on the HEAD chart, I never did write in the number 1 at the top, but pretend that it is there. The opening hold is 12 frames, so the first frame of movement is frame 13: the drawing is given the same number. If you have already numbered your extremes (and you should have by now, working with a stop watch or metronome), then you know that you must place exactly eight drawings somewhere along this chart.<\/p>\n<p>But just how do you go about it?<\/p>\n<h3>\nMaking a Spacing Guide<\/h3>\n<p>\nThe following exercise should be informative if you are not used to doing spacing charts like these.<\/p>\n<p>You begin by drawing a vertical line about two inches [5cm] long in the margin of your extreme drawing. Each horizontal mark that you make along this line represents one drawing (think\u00a0<i>drawings<\/i>\u00a0not\u00a0<i>frames<\/i>\u00a0here). Your top and bottom marks will have the numbers of the beginning and ending\u00a0 extreme drawings that you are timing. Thus, here you have 1 at the top and 29 at the bottom.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjnjkWnKtsX3P5qROxTTFr4dEsa_Klx6Kectd49v7lJIzdaUfViNRGW82wQZCyxvCST2U7E6qYcx4rN0vvPLBF7Kr0f38Xe2-0M4ItGeyCX-rHrAgw2xj9umgAZJvIZ_uc3Bp4Kl3Quxc4\/s1600\/Fig+1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"450\" data-original-width=\"225\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjnjkWnKtsX3P5qROxTTFr4dEsa_Klx6Kectd49v7lJIzdaUfViNRGW82wQZCyxvCST2U7E6qYcx4rN0vvPLBF7Kr0f38Xe2-0M4ItGeyCX-rHrAgw2xj9umgAZJvIZ_uc3Bp4Kl3Quxc4\/s320\/Fig+1.jpg\" width=\"160\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\nAt this point, your total timing between these two extremes should already have been worked out: it is 29 frames, or a little more than 1 1\/4 seconds.

To correctly follow both timing guides, you must make partial drawings.\u00a0 One way to proceed is to do all the Head drawings without adding any right Hands. Then you can go back and add the right arm and hand according to the Hand guide, starting with drawing 19.<\/p>\n<p>*\u00a0 \u00a0*\u00a0 \u00a0 *\u00a0 \u00a0 *\u00a0 \u00a0 *\u00a0 \u00a0 *<\/p>\n<p>I am sure this is complicated to grasp just by reading about it.\u00a0 The thing to do is to try animating something with at least two different timing guides using the same drawings, and you will soon get it.
