Well you can learn how to animate very quickly by watching other people’s projects and looking at their code. How I animate is I make a sprite, and you click on costumes. You duplicate the costume, and, say you wanted Scratch cat to walk. Then you would slightly change the position of his legs and repeat. Duplicate costume, move a little. Repeat. Make sure not to move the cat too much or it’ll look choppy. For the code, you would do something like this:

This would make a never ending loop of the animation. If you wanted to make him move a certain amount of costumes, like do a high five, this is the code for that. Let’s say the amount of costumes needed for a high five is 15.
