Paper Animations Jun-Dec 2020 

You're absolutely right..

Felix is a very powerful man indeed, and his power only grows.

@@Ht9ehtoom Soon nothing - and no one - will be able to stop him...

@@dracognia it is already too late... Felix shall consume it all!

He doesn’t add them in post they just emit from the paper

@Señor Why Me maybe a warlock?? that looks like some black magic

Juan what are you doing here?

you might actually be right, and that frightens me.

Say that again.

he even has a wizard beard

Yea

Sorry to break it to you but... 0:11 Edit: 1:04 and 0:47 too Felix is still cool though

plain awesome you mean

@@pasqualparade5799 I wish we had magic so we could use these paper frames to make animated postcards.

me: haha whoever this is took inspiration from Colgrave also me: *looks at channel name*

This was the first thing I thought of, and then it didn't take long to realise a rig is the way to go here. M a g i c

@@LiMCRiMZ a rig?

Can't you just take measurements so that you can always put it in the same place?

The camera wobbles

It's a program you use in cell and claymation, you plug your camera into it and it essentially gives you an onion skin so you know where to line everything up.

I can not put into words how impressed I am with those animations.

I mean chefs are pretty talented so a normal buffet would also work I'm sorry I'm just hungry

Feed me more.

Imaginative entrées

Umm delish I love me some Kentucky fried talent

Ah yes my favorite font Liquid state

It's in the "Colgrave Style"

Why number your frames if you can animate it 😆

agreed. I love abstract weird stuff.

I eat dirt

@@rodyo1000 Very nice, Liora.

Didn’t expect you here

@@rodyo1000 good for you

Everything is possible with this man

Indeed

Well what do you use to make your animations? Science?

Indeed magic is the only thing plausible to think

well you have no room to talk

the process isnt quite refined, as it takes 8 months, but well worth the wait

@@cupofdirtfordinner r/whooosh

@@cupofdirtfordinner -_-

​@@cupofdirtfordinner maybe the dude has some other job on the side or is just days in forest taking mushrooms and using that for for creating concepts for his drawings, it doens't matter. In the end it is just the results, which is amazing. And yes i would like to see more of him, so please let him work on improving the process, no doubt.

@@Thomas-cr2pt he freelances but thats it, and now he freelances far less because of his patreon. Also he has a wife and kid, so i doubt hes doing mushrooms. I was just kinda making a joke though tbh

Oh it's way worse than that. Felix often animates at 30 frames per second instead of the standard 24, that's why his work looks so smooth.

Animating takes an incredibly long time, that's why any animator on RU-vid has a really slow uploading schedule

Every knuckle movement looks deliberate and planned and I love it

It is how I imagine Philip Guston’s work would look, were it animated.

From personal experience I can reveal that they are

@@AngryPeopleStudios where did you go where they taught about him?

I'm an animation student and yes we study his works in univertity. This dude is a absolut legend ❤

@@soup_soulution3003 where do you go for animation?

@@beahults I got a BA in character animation at The Animation Workshop in Viborg, Denmark

You mean skill, right? Please don't devalue all the years of hard work Felix put into his animations by calling it talent.

@@Hitoame113 You the type of person to bite someones head off over pronouncing "PO-TAH-TOH" instead of "PO-TAY-TOH"?

@@Hitoame113 You don't understand what talent is if that's your response.

@@dopaminecloud He probably meant Felix was "gifted" with the certain talent of making such a refined work of art, thus reducing all of the concept of effort, time and skill to produce his work, which would be considered an offense in specific.

@@sirjames6870 no he’s entirely right lol. It takes a shit ton of work to be that good, coming from a current animation major

settle down ok?

@@fynnli6685 ok?

we consumed seven months of work in 75 seconds 🥺

Imagine how many paper it consume

@@indexwell6546 less than you think. 7 anims 25 frame each..

@@SlayPlenty excluding the failures

@@mudsludge he doesn’t fail

WHAT

Yep

A cuphead-like game drawn by colgrave would be amazing

Oh may god I just thought of the exact same thing and I believe it so much

This has to be a thing, dear lord. PERFECT PLAN. Can we get more upvotes on this, please??

@@gruckusgrackus5815 Of course! But I didn't mean it to come across like that. (tl;dr at the end) I was just complimenting the smoothness that Felix can get with his paper animations, comparing them to a time-honored gem of animation, the Thief and the Cobbler. It was taken over by a different group of animators part way through its development. As a result, parts of the Miramax release had animation that wasn't up to par with the original work by Richard Williams (same guy who made Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but this was his passion project) and wasn't really "finished" up to par in terms of animation quality. It's a rare gift to be able to make such complicated paper animation look so smooth. While Disney was making Aladdin on computer, the original work for the Thief was illustrated all on paper (It took over 30 years of grunt-work before the movie saw the light of day! Paper animation is hard!). tl;dr: Felix has that skill comparable to the old greats of the animation industry, as you can clearly see. If he wanted, he could finish the Thief and the Cobbler just as brilliantly as the original animation (probably even better!), because he has that skill. That's all I was saying. If you enjoy how great Felix's animation is, I recommend checking out ""The Recobbled Cut" of The Thief and The Cobbler on RU-vid. It's chock full of beautifully smooth animation, just like Felix's.

@@gruckusgrackus5815 Why are you a salty killjoy?

dude one of his animations became a meme

This was exactly was I was thinking bro

Exactly what I did. That one with the series of completely different pictures is a mini work of genius

0:50 is creepier

@@entityunknown2 true

woooooo wa woh

He is the drug.

@@tasertag7513 true

The best ones out there

But for real does anyone have a legitimate theory? I assume mescaline shrooms and acid.

rotisserie chicken

I'd be perfectly fine with my normal dreams looking like this.

They're what Freddy Krueger dreams about

his early style was markedly different-his current style is more mature now

Yeah good point

@@rin_etoware_2989 still, both are distinctly "Felix Colgrave"

It takes a lot to creep me out, but that one did the trick. It's still my favorite though.

i want to live there

Not 1 universe in 1 particular multiverse, just the whole damn thing lmao

While causing hallucinations though? lol

Yes! I was just thinking "these are the exact sounds my brain makes when I watch GIFs", I guess that was the intention.

yeah i think it is bc he is sugondese

Así es

Lo mismo digo

Concuerdo
