eMiLy aRtFuL wUz a TrAcEr 

I can’t wait for your next video. This past year I quit college to pursue my dreams of being a full time artist. Some times it feels like only my Husband understands me but and I play your videos on repeat to make me feel better when I’m in a funk. Thank you for continuing to make amazing content. Your Chanel is what I listen to when I’m stressed. Xoxo from a Gal in TN

Haha, that's what I was wondering. As one of my favorite parts in your last video was when you had animations of the RU-vidrs over their voices, I was wondering if this 11 second clip was something like unused footage. By the way, I would LOVE to see more animations done by you over material like voiceovers, commentaries, and whatnot.

I just want more?

Thanks for putting a smile on my face.

maybe the tracers were the friends we made along the way

I think it's the noise cause I like it too lol

@@TheRibottoStudios good brain scratch noise

FR!

seriously

Don't tell anyone that rotoscoping has been in use for either almost or over a century, either!

Oh my god... EVERYONE was a tracer!? Dun dun dunnnnnnnn!

yup...

…And even the ones that don’t trace usually have tons of reference photos that they may or may not directly “copy” to make sure the environment, fashion, poses, etc. are accurate. Professional concept artists straight up paint over photos and other images for time purposes. I’ll never understand people who think tracing, copying, photobashing, rotoscoping, etc. is “cheating.” Literally any professional artist will tell you to take shortcuts when you can (as long as you know what you’re doing & you’re using commercially licensed/Creative Commons media).

Don't tell them abut 2D animators (rotoscopers) lol.

IT ISSSS

YES

Completely here for it.

“Emily artful exposed for violence: exposed part 2”

yes

Even with tracing others' work it's a matter of how much. Getting an eye expression just right, or part of a pose, or if you like a particular abstract line... I think it's fine. That's sufficiently transformative in my opinion.

I don't think there is any problem with tracing in order to learn. Its when you claim the work as your own, and are making money off of it that it becomes an issue. Its the dishonesty that is problematic, not tracing in-of-itself

I’m still learning and really not the best at drawing so tracing outlines and certain shapes really helps me figure out how the line should be drawn/feel if that makes sense and then it’s easier to try draw freehand next time.

Agreed. Especially if you are just using it to add props/minor things or even to just use basic lines to use as a guide for proportions +Using real photos not other peoples artwork. Work smarter not harder!

agreed

Good catch

Yeah but the line is, tracing someone else's drawing and just saying "hey this is mine" but I think it's fine when you trace maybe some body parts and objects.

@@WhatIsMyLif3 yeah claiming an artwork as yours which you traced isn’t ethical or acceptable. Selling artwork you traced is criminal. For your own enjoyment, learning process is fine.

Yeah, I find tracing more basic shapes out of references makes using a reference a lot easier for me

In general, a lot of being a tattoo artist is about "tracing", aka taking parts of a design that a customer wants exactly like that, and trying to make it as much your own as possible. And yeah, I know, ethically it's not okay, but we gotta put food on the table.

Tracing is good as long as it’s only for practice. I remember claiming someone else’s art at a young age that surprisingly did not look like a sashley remake oc for crazy San fan girls. And no, I did not trace Sashley as I didn’t know her channel at the time.

Same. I used to trace fanart of different Undertale Au's. (Alternate Universes) I still draw fanart of Undertale and it's Au's, but I don't trace anymore.

I've traced in situations where I was in an art block but really wanted to draw something, mainly for the satisfaction of drawing the final lines lol

But I only traced pictures of like human beings not other artists art

What about Widowmaker?

@@Lucien_M im already widowmaker

NOOOOOOO

@@cheddarchemist5644 yes 😼

@@littleorangeguy NERF BASTION!

But stealing art via tracing isn't. Btw this vid was just a joke on shannon
