About 2DAnimation101

Standard membership opens all 2DA101 courses, which teach animation done by hand in Cartoon Animator.[1] The group is free to join; Premium membership adds weekly Q&A sessions, and VIP membership adds weekly workflow coaching.[1]

The group also promotes the AI Animation Masterclass, a separate course with a workflow built for beginners who cannot draw or use animation software.[1][3] Its aim is a full animated episode with consistent characters, and its training covers locking a character's look before generating and building sequences in a controlled, logical order.[1][3] The course comes with lifetime access, is taught live and recorded, and includes weekly live coaching in which Diaz works on students' animation or AI problems.[3] It carries a 90-day money-back guarantee tied to creating an animated sequence of at least 2 minutes within 90 days, and buyers have up to 1 year to start applying the course.[1][3]

The 2D Animation 101 YouTube channel teaches cartoon animation to people who want to bring their characters and stories to life, with training on techniques for producing 2D animated films.[2] The owner's Skool profile points to a separate goal-setting project that breaks big goals into achievable quests, presented as a system for turning hard days into fun challenges and overcoming procrastination.[1][4]
