Long, tedious, head-ache and hand-cramp inducing... yet ultimately a thoroughly wonderful experience. To be specific, I had four traditional animation classes and a single flash animation course over roughly three semsters. It was especially fun considering that I could barely draw stick figures going into the program. One thing is for sure; I learned to appreciate just how much effort goes into animating. The one for flash gave me far less headaches, but damn. Comps are a tedium all of their own. Probably the only thing stopping me from making flashes is how long it takes to draw in all of the base work. You'd think inbetweening is boring by comparison, but I actually prefer it. At any rate, I definitely recommend taking a basic traditional animation class or two. Or at the very least, try to get your hands on a copy of The Animator's Survival Kit by Richard Williams. Your animations will have a massive quality jump - and considering you're already high-tier, the result would be insanely awesome.
