Hubby watched a few paid tutorials about 3D Animated Cartoons and asked if I would love to learn and give it a try.

I said yes but with a little frown.
I muttered some words in my mind, the words were "I already have a few clients to manage their social accounts and you want to add more work to me!"
As if he could read my mind, hubby said, this will be an added advantage to your Social Media Management Service.
Your clients might need an animated cartoon Advert, what will you do?

I finally consented to learning.
Watching cartoons is fun and sitting back to watch your creation is more fun.

After watching the tutorials, it was left for me to try it out myself.

I started by first testing all apps listed by the tutor. Some of the apps listed by the tutor had big fees attached to it and some can only be used using a Laptop.
I needed phone apps only.
So, I had to filter the Apps. I went for the ones that don't have to be paid for but will give you the quality pictures you need and can be access through phone.
This took me a whole day to figure out.

After sorting out the Apps required.
I took the next move and that is, start the production process.

In those days, I skipped some house chores, I cooked late, ate late, felt stressed and Hubby understood.
He knew it will be of advantage to me.
It took me five days to finish my first cartoon posted above.
Title: Brave little Bee


The following week, I decided to take on a new one.
Title: Maya's Magic Words

My husband said, in the tutorials they used less than 30 minutes, you're using one week to produce yours😂
I answered, "shey you don't know that they have to edit the tutorials so the videos wouldn't be too long and boring?"

The Song, Voice and everything was produced by me. I did it to entertain my few months old daughter who was already in love with Cartoons.

This is just an AI generated video and has nothing to do with 3D animation which requires 3D modelling, texturing, lighting, animation and rendering.

This is not ANIMATION in its true sense. Generating videos does not make you an Animator. Anyone can do this. Anyone cannot be called an Animator.

You still want to remain in the old world when the new world has given you better tools.

I challenge you to create a complete video like mine, not copywrited.
Since everyone can do it.

Some of you are still stuck in White Board 2D Animation when there are better tools that'll give you better pictures and videos.

Then I created another
Titled: The Dancing Princess and the Shy Girl.

Baby Light is so in love in this.

She claps alongside, tries to jump and sing😄

It's ai generated animation guys so, yeah, she has the right to call it 'animation'.

Is she an animator? Certainly not.
I almost got blind seeing that colour riot of a banner on her profile.

But let's give the young lady her flowers.
At least she is putting in the efforts.

I'm glad I don't need your approval to be called an animator.

Or, are you the originator of the word "animator" so who is an animator?


I'm also glad your attention was drawn to our Signature.

What you called "colour riot" is what you can't take your eyes off😄

AI was created to ease your stress but you still like it the old fashioned way.

What is 3D modelling?

3D modeling is the process of creating digital representations of three-dimensional objects using specialized software


What is texturing?

The representation or use of texture, especially in music, fine art, and interior design.


What is lighting?

In animation, lighting is the deliberate placement and control of light and shadow to create depth, mood, atmosphere, and visual storytelling within a scene. It goes beyond mere illumination to guide the viewer's eye, enhance realism or stylistic choices, and evoke specific emotions, making it a crucial tool for setting the tone and enhancing the narrative of an animated work.


What is animation?

Animation is the process of turning two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) still images into moving images


What is Rendering?

Rendering is the process of turning a 3D model or animation into a 2D image or video. The computer takes all the information about the 3D model and applies the lighting and materials to turn it into a final image or video that we can watch on our screens.



Who would produce a cartoon without going through all these processes?

Better Apps are introduced into the technical space daily, so don't be stuck in one, evolve alongside.

Yes AI tools gives you pictures but you need the right prompt to get the exact images.
Yes, you need the right prompt to get the right images.
This is called, "PROMPT ENGINEERING"
And this is currently one of the most high paying skills in the world right now – which has generated millions and billions to Prompt Engineering Integrators and Founders of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools in the World.


Here's my fourth animated cartoon:

You just watched my animated cartoon right?

Yes, I did it.

The cartoon you just watched, involved all the processes listed above and I used more refined tools to carry them out.

You can watch it again and Redefine my terms to sooth your eyes and ears.

Coming from someone that's after my life and work.

I've got a very beautiful life and it's obvious you can't stand it.

Which of theses tools are you very good at, in creating Whiteboard 2D Animations?

🛠️ Tools to Create Whiteboard 2D Animations:

1. Doodly


2. VideoScribe


3. Explaindio


4. Renderforest


5. Vyond (with whiteboard style templates)

Do you want to create a 3D Animation?

1. Have you planned your story?

2. Have you planned your scenes?


The planning process is called Storyboarding

I didn't stop there

I created another cartoon, using Baby Light as my character.

"Baby Light of Dreamland" – Baby Light on an Alphabet Adventure.
Starting with Alphabet A

Still learning the Alphabet, Dressed as a Princess.

Baby Light, still dressed as a Princess, took on the role in Identifying the Letter C
