To make pony cartoons on youtube what are some good programs to use or software.

 

 

Adobe Flash or After efects....I recomend you to start with Adobe Flash.. You can just put a tutorial and learn in less of a hour. And if need help just seach it on Youtube

Unfortunately, there aren't many good ones available for free. The only ones I've seen were Synfig, which does not work on computers with certain processors, and Pencil, which is for traditional animation, which is very time-consuming. All of my other experiments with animation have been in GIMP and Movie Maker.

 

You'll have to pay up for Flash, Toon Boom, or Anime Studio. I don't have them, but I hear they're expensive and update constantly, so you run the risk of being left behind.

 

For 3D, there is SFM (which I've never used) and Blender, which is free but has an overly complex UI and a steep learning curve. It's taken years and numerous false starts for me to actually learn Blender, and I'm still at a very basic level in it.

Flash if you want an easy route (Pre-made Ponies)

 

Anime Studio if you want a harder route (You'll have to draw'em out.)

The best one to use is Flash but it costs quite a bit. You can download Team Fortress 2 and it automatically comes with Source Film Maker.

Flash is what I use, I'm sure there others that work as good for less money however I'm not familiar enough with any of them to make any recommendations.
