What is Onion Skinning?
Onion skinning is a technique from 2D computer graphics that allows animators to see adjacent frames at once. That way, the animator can make decisions or edits based on how the previous frames are drawn. This feature comes in handy when you are creating even a simple sketching of a storyboard and allows you to create animations like a pro!
