MITOSIS. A Stop motion Animation by Guldies 

HI EVERYONE!! It has been so long since my last personal animation! I'm SUPER DUPER nervous and I don't know how to do this anymore. Leave a cute little like if you want me to keep doing this weird thing I'm doing. I love it with my whole being, and I love you too!

The fact that this is genuine claymation shows this guy has mad patience

I have been a professional stop-motion animator for over 40 years and I must say, this is the best clay animation I've ever seen. Well done!

Don't know what is more impressive, the visual or the audio. All those delightful sounds, like the wood bonking or the cracking finger bones, it's all amazing put together.

Your Foley work is super impressive on top of the quality stop motion animation! Thank you for sharing!

1:15 Definitely my favorite part. The motion of the planks shuddering to life and folding into shapes is just 👌

The hard part about seeing such talent on display is to think of anything substancial to say to propertly congratule the artists.

PLEASE KEEP DOING YOU !!! this type of art is so rare these days!!! being able to see such uniqueness and wonder in your animations is so special. really encourages me to keep thinking mystically and to not settle for the predictable. thank you for creating and loving what you do and sharing it with us !!!

Love the wobbly bouncy magnetic feel you give to all the objects colliding. Such a refined piece, amazing work Alex 🤩

This was incredible work. The sound design, style, animation and creativity. Stop motion animation is immensely time consuming and takes incredible patience. Props to you for making art like this that's so fun and innovative!

This dude's animation is so smooth, the lighting is perfect, 10/10 sound design, honestly if I could give this man an award I would

I'm almost upset at how unbelievably imaginative this is. The sounds? Stop it. The detail? Stop it. The way the branches of the pine trees bounced? Just stop it......don't ever stop, please.

The combination of the animation, the zooms, and the sound effects is perfect. Every impact is felt as if it is real!

Dude this was for real one of the best and most fluid stop motions i've ever seen! The storytelling and sound design were also on point. Congrats!!!

The sound design isn't getting enough love here. That shit pulls this whole thing together

I remember watching one of the first Guldies videos years ago, and now seeing how much his creativity, level of detail and storytelling has improved, it's genuinely impressive. A true artist!

Dude, this is incredible! Not only is the animation incredibly smooth, you also put an intense amount of detail in it and the sound effects fit just perfectly! I'm only curious how you come up with these crazy ideas and if there's a message behind them..?

The sounds of the crunching wood was so perfect. Can’t even imagine how much time and patience it takes to make this stuff.

I just got recommended your first claymation video 13 years ago, and came to see this. You have progressed a lot and motivated me to keep doing lego stop motion. Keep it up.

I can’t even comprehend the talent and dedication this takes, the detail the sounds the amount going on at one, it actually is overwhelming to try and think about the work it would take. You make clay look sound and feel ridged, then turn around and make it feel fluid and liquid, you make clay feel alive, like it couldn’t possibly be a human doing any of this. Please keep it up if you are able, stay weird, and thank you

You have such a memorable and inanely and recognizable art style, and yet you still keep surprising me with your wild, crazy, unique, absolutely BEAUTIFUL animations that have lots of depth and detail put into each frame. You've made something really awesome here and you have my appreciation. Such an inspired video, bravo 👏👏👏

The amount of detail in the objects and the transitions are always so satisfying

Clay stop motion is perhaps the most magical form of video art. The movement is so distinctive and captivates me every time. Thank you for keeping it alive. ♥️

POV you stub your toe: 1:53

I found your channel probably ten or so years ago. Your videos were a huge inspiration to me and when I was in middle school I got really into sculpting. I lost interest in making art due to mental health issues but every once in a while I still like to visit your channel and rewatch some of my old faves plus some of your newer vids. It’s been a wonderful experience seeing you work evolve over the years. I might not be your most present fan but your work definitely had a big impact on me growing up and I don’t think I’d be the same person if it wasn’t for your videos :)

The sheer talent, creativity, effort, imagination and dedication shown in each and every one of your videos is such that most could only dream of. You never fail to inspire me with your work. Happy to see you back Guldies!

not only is the claymation amazing but so is the sound design!

This is the definition of human creativity

Rarely do I see anything this impressive on RU-vid. You still have that touch of artistry, my friend

It’s amazing how you are able to keep track of so many objects animating at once. Amazing

I can already tell this is going to reach millions of views over the next few weeks or months.

1:56 me after stubbing my toe at 3:00 am

Crazy that I've been looking up to Guldies animations for a decade! I still have some of the polymer clay sculptures I made from your early tutorials. Always so happy to see a new video from you :^)

GOD this was even better than I thought it was gonna be, it's clear how much your skills have SKYROCKETED, so much of this just left me speechless

Insane quality, claymation is such rare craft even at it peak it was niche. I'm jealous of your dedication

Always wonderful to see another astonishing monstrosity by you Guldies! Big inspiration for many, these are just so high quality.

1:50 I would have the same reaction as the house

This is weirdly creative and i kinda like it. Can we talk about for a second about how the heck he got those sound effects? outstanding work, your animations are always interesting and so mesmerizing to see

This has got to be my favorite animation yet. The surreal imagery mixed with the smoothness just makes it all click. Beautiful.

This is honestly beautiful

You’re stuff is always so satisfying to watch, both with smoothness and the sound effects. It’s so abstract and amazing. Never doubt your work man

It is so... "amusingly weird", like a thought materialized into someting tangible and visible by all, but it took waaay more time to make than just a thought. I love how you have your own style of creepy, fluid and fascinating animation, how I can tell "this is Guldies !" by just a frame. Your work is immaculate !!

I cannot imagine how much patience this must require. I love it!

Holy hell, the vibrations of the boards falling and bending is so effective, killer work as always!

The animation is unthinkably smooth and the sound design is absolutely marvelous, incredible work!

These animations are so beautiful in a way you don’t expect them to be

I love the night forest theme, it helps make the whole animation feel more alive. And the sound design is absolutely fantastic, it really pulls it all together. It’s amazing to see how far you’ve come and I am happy to see such talent being recognized

This is a phenomenal piece of work! I remember growing up watching Gumby every week. Man it would be so cool to watch a show based in this MITOSIS universe!

Another gorgeous work!! In a world where A.I. art is dominating the attention cycle, I'm very happy to see something wonderful has just been made with human hands.

And the cycle starts again... This stop motion animation is just amazing, and it's so smooth too! I especially love the sound design, it just gave even more life to the animation!

This has one of the best sound design I've ever heard!!!

I'm actually floored by the FPS of this claymation. The patience to create something this high quality is unreal.

I missed! The GREAT return of the GREAT champion. Thank you! Beautiful animation... I watched it 4 times and I can't get enough! You are an artist and a master at what you create. I love your works. You are number one for me! You do the animations TOTALLY YOURSELF! From scratch. You add sounds that you record yourself. You edit each photo. You combine all the scenes in video editing programs. And much much more! I know what I write because I do the same thing myself - thanks to you, the passion for creating stop-motion animations in 2019 was born in me. I'm still learning, but I know I'm not up to your heels, my master. I ADORE YOU! Kind regards.

I love your work so much. Seeing your animation skills grow from your first animation you posted 13 years ago to the stuff that you create in the present is wonderful. It's so horrifyingly beautiful and the medium is perfect for the type of animations that you do. Everything you do comes together so cohesively, The sound effects you add, the cinematography / directing that you do, down to the fucking little shakes of the camera whenever something is moving around. It makes me feel something so completely. I will never get over how amazing the work you do is. I have loved your deeply unsettling animations ever since you came out with euphoria years ago. The detail of your sculptures are unbelievable and the fact you have the time impatience to make them move so smoothly is astounding. I love your work and the vibes / stories you convay. I live for this uncomfortable and unsettling content. This newest animation hit different, the isolated setting in the middle of a forest, power of the scream at the end with the shake of the camera, the eyes in the window frames, the cracking of the highly detailed hands whenever they moved, really made me feel something so deeply in my soul. Nothing I say will ever be able to convey how much I truly adore your art, but I tried my best. Thank you for always putting in the effort to create something horrifically, terrifyingly, and truly beautiful.

Every single frame in this masterpiece is an artwork in and of itself, and considering it’s probably 20 fps with a runtime of 2:26 seconds that is nearly 3000 frames. Each an artwork in and of itself. It would take me weeks just to make one frame of this marvel of human talent, let alone 3000 of them. Truly amazing

This give me little nightmares vibes 0:11 The art bruh😬

the sound + animation combo on the planks folding into boxes was next level. masterfully done :)

Like so @Guldies can see. Great content that in the digital age draws attention to such applied, lively and REAL technology as claymation. Among the whole sea of stupid videos, this is really what is missing.

Insane!!! This is the next level, amazing work 😁🙏🤖👏🏻

I can't even fathom the amount of dedication, time, and skill it will take to make this animation! Amazing job as always!

I love your work , it's so poetic and authentic. It's an eye bath with smr . It's normal artists to struggle find their artistic energy all the time. What helps me when I am stuck is to rest by reading or just having fun with friends and long talks and not pushing myself to create for a while.

that was so smooth! so many small details in the movements that really make them addicting to watch. i love your videos!

Too many amazing things to name them all but the quality of the scupture (hands, fingers,faces, hearts,etc), the sound effects, the smoothness of the animation, all these are astounding. And no doubt the whole feeling of it all is definitely you. Just incredible

One of the most outstanding unique short piece of animated motion art ever realized! I’m so amazed!

This was simply amazing! I would love to see a behind the scenes of this.

0:30 legit looks like it should be in the Forest

Breathtaking. When you know how painstaking and meticulous stop motion truly can be, this is just breathtaking.

This is just insane work! Super cool how the end connects back to the beginning and all the references to mitosis, keep doing what you're doing, much love and respect

Bro out here making some of the best stop motion known to man, and still be overlooked by some. Beyond stellar job.

Even by watching the silent preview, I could tell this would have excellent sounds. I was not disappointed.

I think this one is my new favourite stop motion short! This is incredible, the crackling sounds and animation on the fingers are amazing!

You never fail to absolutely blow my mind. Thank you so much for being so awesome

Amazing video!! Infinite amount of work and dedication! Very creative as well! Congrats!! 😃😃😍

This is honestly some of the best stuff that can be found on RU-vid and every second of it is amazing.

Not only is the animating undeniably impressive, the sound design is super hearty and well done. I was having actual physical reactions to the sfx. Also that part where the chopped planks turned into a house was so well done with the intentionally shaky snapping into squares

It literally seems like a software/3D Animation. Best stop motion I’ve ever seen,ITS SO PERFECT!!!!

your stopmotion work is so fucking insane! the details, the transitions from each shape, the characteristics to each type, sound design and many details that i probably missed. it's mindblowing! one of the best stop motion artists

The fact that halfway through I was like 75% sure this had to be done in blender is quite the testament to the skills on display here.

this is the most comprehensive guide to building a house I've ever seen.

0:48 gustavo fring

This is very ASMR xd Amazing animation!!

I would love to see a stop motion movie where someone has the powers to morph objects like this or something like that. It’d be so cool

This is honestly one of the best stop motion animations I have ever seen in a long time. The fluidity, the motion, the simulated physics that's all done by hand. It's immaculate! And the crazy, creepy style just makes this so unique and wonderful. I hope you do more in the future, always loved your stuff since I discovered your animations!

Is that Gus from Breaking Bad at 0:49 ?

I've been looking forward to this day for a very long time: the day Guldies uploads another stop-motion video. They're so high-quality and surreal that it's an experience to cherish. The fact that this video loops is incredible, too. It's strange and surreal like a car crash that you just can't look away from; it draws the viewer close to participate in the experience. Rather than simply watching the video idly, it demands participation on behalf of the viewer. Your videos have struck a delicate balance. Please continue. How do you feel about variable framerate (VFR) techniques? I know it'd be a lot more work, but the suggestion is there. Peruse it if you desire :)

Just saw your first video and wanted to watch more. But damn, that must be the best clayanimation I have ever seen😍 everything was so smooth and on point. Increadible.

The tiny details are what make this already excellent stop-motion animation absolutely phenomenal! The way you nail the camera shakes to convey impact visually and the way you perfect the object physics is just sooo satisfying to watch and super impressive 👏👏 Can't even imagine how long it must've taken since this is physical animation, and nailing such subtle effects masterfully means your experience and talent is top-tier ⭐

Dude, this has got to be one of the most satisfying and intriguing animations I have ever seen, both visually and conceptually. Absolutely magnificent work.

My biology teacher put this vid on for us in class because he thought it was actually about mitosis 💀

The shaking when the planks fuses together is amazing !

The animation is so smooth and the sound effects are on point. Great work man

Sons of The Forest be like: 0:22

2:16 and the cycle repeats

Such a talent! your timing, your style, your sound design, it's all top shelf. You are an inspiration.

I've never seen the 12 principles of animation so clearly demonstrated in clay

I'm glad I'm not high for this. I would have had a panic attack looking at this shit. Pretty great animation though

I’m always happy to see you post! You animations are amazing as always! Keep up the good work :D

My god every time I see one of your animations i just melt like THEY ARE SO GOOD! Animation, sound design, the surreal storytelling, it s all just top notch work!

Been watching you since Faces and the level of detail and movement in your animations amazes me everytime. Like others have said the fact that this is claymation is astounding! Great job!

I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING TO CREATE BEAUTIFUL ART. And yes i absolutely would be thrilled to see more of this, and i speak for many others i’m sure. Adoration from an artist to an artist
