Sketching Dynamic Drawings Using the Principles of 2D Animation

We present a sketching tool for crafting (looping) animated illustrations that contain the exaggerated dynamics of stylized 2D animations. Its user interface exposes the principles of animation as a set of motion amplifiers, which is easy to use and understand, and it facilitates rapid exploration, even for amateurs.
