Fr I don’t need help I have 10 characters I voice act,write,and animate with 6 more I’m thinking of adding and I’m still going so to be honest,you don’t need a big crew to make something good,just make it from the bottom of you heart do what you want and need.
Confidence is literally the worst thing about me. I have started so many projects at once, SOMEHOW THINKING I’LL FINISH THEM EVERY TIME WHEN I HAVEN’T FINISHED ANY OF THEM AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
and about the "not getting alot of fame" thing, bfdi's first elimination had a grand total of 6 votes when they started, that's less than the people up for voting in that episodes and look at how far they have come
I have wanted to make something in the OSC ever since I first discovered the fandom 6 years ago. But every time I came up with an idea, I always turned around on it. I dialed back the ambition I had for my show idea several different times and brought it down to the absolute most bare essentials to simplify the act of _getting started,_ yet I would come up with any excuse I could to procrastinate and delay the actual undertaking of show development. But only recently did I realize that the only thing that ends up doing is killing any and all drive to actually go through with the project. Even if whatever I were to make ends up being the most mid, formulaic, and forgettable thing imaginable... at least it'd finally be out there. And with that, it'll be easier to take anything I made afterwards and improve upon what came before. There's such a self-destructive notion that whatever you make and post first has to be top of the class and able to compete with (I hate using this term) """""the big guys""""" just to be worth anything to people, but that kind of thinking takes away the whole point as to why we make stuff to begin with. We create the things that we do because we have passion for our ideas. ...It always feels weird to get personal about something as silly as object shows, but that last point really cut deep for me, so maybe someone can get something out of this. :')
@@thecascadecollection BUT I WONT!!!! THE CLIP YOU USED WAS VERY NOT SIGMA!!! PLEASE BE MORE PRO EPIC GAMER NEXT TIME YOU NO RIZZ!!!! (...why have i done this-)
While Im on my way to create a non-competiton object show, been a lot of pitfalls trying to make it "perfect" which is only stalling the plans to even begin it, and this video helps me realize that more then ever, it is confidence inspiring, especially near the end. (case and point took alot of confidence to even type all this 😭)
Hey y'all! This video is a bit of an experiment, and I'm really proud of how it came out! If you have any feedback about the video, positive or negative, feel free to leave it in the replies! And if you have any video ideas, let me know about them! I'd love to make more videos like this!
As someone who currently has an object show, and wants to start another one soon, I think this was rlly helpful. I think burnout and confidence might be the biggest problems for me, but I’m usually able to use my own style to make it unique.
PB AND GB MENTION??? But, um yeah I think the advice u’ve shared is very useful!! I think the confidence one was sweet and came from a genuine place and yeah I’ll be keeping these in mind
I got burnt out by the first iteration of my show, because I didn’t really like the show at all. The writing was bad, voice acting was bad, the animation wasn’t that good either, because I had such an unorganized crew that made the show take forever. I’ve learned from those mistakes, and i’ve started off fresh! Same characters with some new additions, the writing is MILES better than the old first episode. I’ve done a pretty good job at organizing stuff. No more creating animation without voices lines, I can actually remember who’s an animator, or voice actor. I’m finally confident with the show! The first episode isn’t out yet, but it’ll probably take less time than it took to only create HALF of an episode for the previous rendition.
YOU MADE THIS IN A FUCKING DAY?????????????????????????????????? OH MY GOD Anyway oh my god if you want to keep doing this you absolutely totalyl completely should, this was afucking banger video
Thank you so much for the advice :] You made me more confident about how I sound and the fact I don't really have much VA skills. You earned a new sub from me, more people should see this video
Thank you for that last part! I'm not a show creator, but an osc fanfiction writer and I definitely struggle with confidence. Hearing your words helped me a lot :)
Currently making a non-competition show, a very meta show about burnout and the constant need to do something completely revolutionary and “original” to be noticed. I won’t go into detail but ye
I think something important when making an object show is knowing your limits and what you want your show to be For example I am not an animator, and I want to be a professional filmmaker one day So I rely a lot on hired animators to make my show look good (while learning as I go) And focus on making my show the highest quality it can be in every aspect However if your vision is far more casual and simple then don't force yourself to do anything more People should not force themselves to fit any type of mold just because "it will be better" or "It's what you're supposed to do" Make what you want and know what you wanna make
I'm currently making BFBBLNSU, and thanks to your video, I'm more confident in it and willing to keep moving forward, so I must thank you for this truly thanks
While it's not an object show, I've wanted to make my own puppet web show for the longest time. All of the advice you talked about holds true and hits equally hard. I need to have the confidence and friends who can help me whenever they can. Love and friendship can pay off greatly in the end, and that's the key to making a show. Thank you, Cascade(?).
To add on to the last point, this can apply to literally anything. Not only am I a voice actor for an upcoming object show, but I’m also writing my own fan projects. Occasionally I think to myself, “Am I really doing this? Is this even good enough for the readers?” and I’ll just review what I have, fix any mistakes, and continue, because I’m proud of myself and my work.
I love looking at videos like these It just makes me feel batter and makes me wanna keep going, just to finish the first episode 😊 Thank you for the advice!!! ❤
My take on these Uniqueness: Sure make some of your characters unique but honestly every personality has been done before Burnout: I CAN MAKE A SHOW ALONE IF I WANT TO DUMMY Appeal: Not every character has to look like Pink from Squares Mini Reboot Believing in yourself / Confidence: I admit I have frowned upon myself but that’s just because I wish I could animate and not have every show on paper.
genuinely this video is really what i needed to hear, so big thank you. i got a burnout recently cuz of working on my object show almost all by myself (except voice acting). and also cuz of constant thought that ppl wouldnt like it and i need remake the whole episode, but i try to change these thoughts that its still just a practice so its not that bad and everyone can make mistakes and learn from them
oh boy this is going to be a long one….or maybe not, lmao so i’m making an object show, no spoilers ofc..but i plan for it to be somewhat “out of the ordinary” to normal shows.. its taken a while to make but i think it can bring back that feeling from the 2010s where object shows were actually, well..good!! hope you enjoyed my mini paragraph lol..
these are really great advice, yeah some will say the last one is sappy but it really is true! self-confidence is key! offtopic but i really like your avatar!! the scribbly style is so cool!!
Honestly this is making me feel better about my attempt at making my object show. A lot of my issues stem from trying to plan ahead through several episodes, but I finally managed to start focusing on the first episode and have been starting a storyboard(written and drawn) and backgrounds, but I’m probably going to have a bunch of people help out with backgrounds the most for the first episode since I just want to first episode to set the ground for what I want to make. I often rethink the idea I came up with because I compare it to other shows, but I’ve been getting better at focusing on what I want to make, over what I assume people want me to make. This video has definitely helped with reassuring me that my own show is hopefully going to be pretty good once I finally start with the animation and get more people who’re willing to help with more episodes(I just gotta ask some people for background help, lol)!!
I’m currently struggling with finding the motivation for my object show and this honestly might help I started production mostly by myself since January but I had to keep putting it off cause high school but now I have room for it, it’s still some how hard to find motivation for it
I am currently in the process of making the first episode of Elemental Paradise and I waited a long time before actually animating it. I at first thought I was procrastinating but I realized that my animation skills have improved a lot since when I wanted to do so at first.
Im sad by the fact that you dind't say that one of the mistakes was not subbing and hitting the bell to get notifications every time you post a new video.
With this is mind, hopefully i'll enter into the animation world one day I still need to no stress myself for not being able to draw correctly and not ran out of motivation in the middle of it Perhaps one day..... One day...... Anyways, love this video!
4:00 use FlipaClip 0:44 take inspiration from my favorite show.i sure did cause on jacknjellifys channel their are algebralian and I made a show called the power of eighteen (TPOET) it’s season two of my show HOS (hotline object show) but season 1 and 2 are just something for me to play with it’s just made for fun and this kinda helped my a lot and this gave my a bit of inspiration to start back HOS and season 1 & 2 don’t have script I just make it to have fun see where it goes and just enjoy it (: thx for this lovely video
i’ve made a one man object show. the first episode is 5 minutes long, and it took me about 3 months to make. and somehow i still have the motivation to make another
I started my object show on June 11, 2021. I was 11 or 12 at the time. I didn't know how to animate, so I just made the first season an MS paint comic strip. Let's just say season 1 wasn't a success. I didn't give up though. On January 1, 2022, the first episode of season 2 released. I still didn't know how to animate. For about a year, the show went on hiatus, mainly to brainstorm ways I could vastly improve the series. Then, on March 1, 2023, I released my first animated episode. Sure, it sucked, but I was 13. 2023 is the year my show started to get pretty popular. 2024 came around. All of that motivation came to an end abruptly. I got seriously sick with pneumonia early this year. I started to lose subscribers, and I didn't want to do anything with the show anymore. I wanted to cancel it. That is, until this video came around. The final step really got to me. Even though I'm not 13 anymore, I still want to give this a shot again. You gave me the motivation I need to come back to my show. Thank you. You earned my subscription :)
I've been trying to make my object show possible for a year, and its taking a while, i redesigned the characters, i made a new plot, tried a new artstyle, 2023 was a really hard year for me and everytime I tried to animate I just immediately lost my motivation. But now, in 2024, I think I improved. ALOT. I'm starting to make more detailed assets and backgrounds, I'm starting to ACTUALLY finish animations, I'm also practicing voice acting. Only 3 people are working on my object show with me. (My mom, me, and my aunt) and they really helped me a lot, they made some characters, gave me ideas, doing some voice acting, etc. They also gave me tips on what to do when writing the script or animating. I'm currently working on my script and it's been like 2 weeks now? Maybe 3? I don't know, but I'm almost done completing my object show. The last tip really helped me alot, I've always been scared sharing my animations in public, or just making any videos. But I really just want this object show to be possible. I don't know when episode 1 will release, but hopefully it's soon. It's kinda hard doing all of these because all the assets I made and the voice acting, animation, backgrounds, are ALL made in Flipaclip. I just recently started animating on Flipaclip back in 2022. And I learned a lot about the techniques, what to do and what not to do, etc. My profile was entirely made on Flipaclip, and one thing that bothers me is the flipaclip watermark, but I don't want to buy premium for that. All these tips were really useful, and I think it will make me improve when I'm making my show. I'm glad I came across this video, it really helped me alot. (I'd be really surprised if someone ACTUALLY read the whole thing.)
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE YOUUUUUU/P (No but fr, im making an object show and I felt like I wasn't doing enough even though I haven't even posted the first episode, this vid helped a lot, have a great day!!)
The worst mistake is not being post split BFB If your object show isn't post split BFB, you might as well cancel it, cause post split BFB is the only good piece of media to ever exist
Hmm... Yeah now that i think about it i don't really think i can produce the show I'm planning alone... My voice does NOT match the voices I want for my characters at all lmao 😭 But i honestly wanna try... I still need to think more lol 😅
I checked out your channel, and I dig your videos! You definitely have a good sense for animation, the action scenes are very weighty! Plus you have me beat in terms of consistency. You've earned a sub! Excited to see where your channel goes!
I just write my own comics (for practicing writing) and i just dont know how i should make drama, if tou have any tips id love to hear it!! Already done 4 ep scripts out of around 20 but i have tried using a vote steal to later excuse the elimination of a future contestant, should i add more advantages like this?
Honestly confidence is like half and half for me I am confident making my joke shows cause i literally dont care how bad they are cause they are joke shows But then for my serious shows i have no confidence writing my scripts cause i cant purposely do bad on those and if im being honest i literally am horrible at writing scripts- So im very confident with my joke shows but i have little to no confidence for my serious shows It doesn't help that i always lack the motivation to work on them
What if all my friends don’t wanna (I don’t have a lot and none of them really know osc) and also i don’t wanna use discord bc dramas. How else could i collaborate with talented people?
ya , I have the second problem with my show because I am young and don't have time to do all the work on my show. and it's been 3 YEARS since I announced my show and all I have is some voice actors and some people willing to help but ya , I need to solve this
pb n gb mentioned?!! this video is really helpful to me as someone trying to create their own object show; i’ve recently taken a break from animating it though from lack of motivation , but i’ll keep working on it can you be my big sister please /silly /lh
If you're younger, I would say it may be best to avoid meeting friends online - it can be dangerous - and that school and extracurricular activities can be a good place to find friends. See if your school has an art club. You might find people who are interested!
