pros animate fusions in gartic phone with no time limit! 

PLEASE GO TO THE AUTHORS COMMENTS AND FOLLOW ALL THESE TALENTED PEOPLE ON TWITTER!!!

This was one of the most insane experiences I’ve had as an animator

Should be called "Pro animators are surprised they can animate"

47:38 The music hit perfectly the animation is epic, the way the chose to mold the characters is perfection 10/10 My favorite one so far!

The switch every time from extremely crude, minimal drawing of the dance to mind boggling action frames and finishing fusion always makes me laugh.

We actually made history

dan needs to see tailola RIGHT NOW

God, they were right. Juny really goes all-out. Mad respect. Everyone did amazingly... My jaw was agape at every gif and the way the characters were revealed. I feel like I just watched history

I get CHILLS seeing the Wario and Captain Falcon fusion reveal because it syncs SO WELL with the mute city music. 29:18 SO GOOD

watch ross accidentally start an animation studio after constantly gathering these pros to animate together

Having open communication between the artists on what they're drawing after all those context-less animations is like taking the training weights off in an anime.

The music syncing at 47:41 when doombelle appears is so satisfying holy

Idk why, but makes me happy to see artists/animators freak out like this

I don’t know anyone who cares about animation more than Ross, and seeing him get legit choked up over making something so radical with his friends was amazing. This is what RU-vid is for.

To be honest, my favorite part of this Gartic Phone series is the animators' reaction to their own work. The genuine amazement and pride in the choruses of wows over the Discord call is so awesome to hear because they are seeing their craft how their audience views it all the time, impressive and an absolute joy to watch and experience. Your guys' work is stellar.

The funniest part about aphantasia is that a lot of artists have it. It’s probably just because we use our art as a way of visualizing things for us because we can’t do it ourselves. Like a weird coping mechanism.

7:53 holy shit this opened my eyes, also the talk about a blind man trying to think about the volume of a shape is perfect. I know what a character is supposed to look like, how their clothes would move when they walk, their faces when painted different emotions, but I can never *see* them. The only time I actually have visuals is when I dream and even then I can barely make out things, only a few things sticking out which I usually use as inspiration for whenever I write/want to make something

Ross do a "cool down" episode where you introduce all the collaborators, chit-chat a little, and let us get to know everyone!

This one was absolutely nuts, I can’t stop watching pls don’t stop

26:42 The theme actually went in sync with the hype I love it

I’m also an artist with aphantasia and I loved the conversation you guys had about it! The way you explained it is really good, I couldn’t really figure out how to explain it to my friends. It’s nice to see more people talking about it and spreading the word, because a lot of people just live their lives without knowing that it’s different for people. It really gives you a change of perspective and insight into how unique everyone truly is.

I’ll be the first to admit that when Ross started talking about being unable to “see things when you close your eyes” (aphantasia), it took me way longer than it should have to realize he meant “to make a mental image” and not “to project an f-ing echolocation hologram into your eyes like Daredevil”

They could make an entire studio with all these artists.

29:30 HOW FLUENT breathtaking - a exaggerated drawing/ animation. My favorite of all one! Great work in specially the explosion

just watched a video about aphantasia before this and it’s explanation, so it’s pretty funny to hear how it works two times in a row

Shoutout to Freeglass doing his absolute best to maintain some of Juny's linework after every frame.

51:04 "Is this what people in animation studios feel?" Ross then looks deep into his mind having to break the bad news of reality and reveals the truth "No"

This is like the most wholesome content out there. Just hard working creative people supporting each other and encouraging healthy habits.

The realization amongst these amazing artists that they ARE all amazing makes me so happy! Along with the joy of watching people who are really good at something do what they're good at.

I can't imagine what would happen if they tried to make their own anime opening in Gartic Phone

56:22 "this isn't-- there wasn't one bad one in that entire-- there was not one MEDIUM one in that entire--..." Hard fucking agree. This was all killer no filler.

I’ve never been more hyped about animation IN MY LIFE THIS WAS SICK!!!

53:32 THE SUNGLASSES APPEAR ON THE LIL FLASH OMG!!!!!!!!

This experience was like a fever dream, I still can't believe we actually did that :'D

Ross's unbridled nerd-rage of "HAVE I EVER WATCHED DRAGONBALL!?!?", including a voice-crack, is so hilarious.

48:57 RubberRoss saying i'm ready finn

When it comes to the aphantasia thing, im not aphantasic. However, when its harder for me to picture stuff in my head when my eyes are closed, but it isnt impossible, its easier for me to see stuff in my head and to see it more clearly when my eyes are open. Its interesting to think about though.

Ross: I can't believe _I_ got the furries, I can't draw animals! Also Ross: _was originally gonna do Sonic and Pikachu_

Can we appreciate the music sync when the gifs reveal? 21:55 - Pikachu x Sonic 24:03 Gif 24:35 - Giorno Giovanna x Topo Gigio 26:41 Gif 27:10 - Warrio x Captain Falcon 29:18 Gif 29:54 - Mordecai x Twilight Sparkle 32:02 Gif 32:35 - The Knight x Pato 34:43 Gif 35:13 - Big Bap Mai Shiranui x Kirby 37:19 Gif 37:47 - Sephiroth x Kirby 39:51 Gif 40:15 - Sol Badguy x Ragna the Bloodedge 42:20 Gif 43:06 - Don Patch x Eggman 45:13 Gif 45:30 - Isabelle x Doom Guy 47:41 Gif 48:20 - Finn the Human x Spongebob 50:27 Gif 51:11 - Megaman x Batman 53:19 Gif 54:00 - Tails x Lola Bunny 56:06 Gif

My favorite thing about this is watching everyone get so hyped up for each other and for the work they created together. It makes me wanna cry, honestly-in the best way.

This whole video is just a direct injection of dopamine, between the amazing animations, great music choice (and well edited), and just all the artists being so overwhelmed with joy and positivity. Legit one of the most wholesome videos I've ever watched

Is it just me or does Ross start looking like a proud dad about halfway through showing off the finished pieces?

This is literally the coolest thing I’ve seen all week, I’m baffled by how well everything fits together, I love their excitement, this is everything I’ve ever wanted.

The part where they talk about imagining and seeing things is very interesting. I personally still see black but it feels like my mind sort of disconnects itself from my eyes and im able to somewhat see what i imagine in watercolours (its actually really cool when i think about it) please tell me if you see something else because im really interested in this topic.

Can we all agree that Juny is the fucking goat, so talented yet so humble, he was a teamplayer

The fusion of Lola and Tails be like: This is the birth of the ULTIMATE FURRY!

Imagine how utterly amazing this would be if every artist was as amazing as Juny. Don't get me wrong, they're ALL talented. But Juny has a special talent that makes all of his frames SSS tier.

the animations are obviously fucking sick, but it's also so cool how they're so supportive and so shocked at how talented they each are it's so wholesome

Being part of this one was such an incredible experience. Everyone's so freaking talented and awesome!

Having Teleperte and Juny right next to eachother with the effects animation is sick as fuck

During juny’s album i started getting teary eyed because HOLY FUCK- WOW

Captain Falcario was probably the most impressive one, simply due to how insanely well coordinated that one was and how polished the final product looked

Ross: "god I can't believe I'M the one that got the furries, I can't draw animals" Also Ross: Pikachu and Sonic

Seeing the chat and the animators go hog fuckin wild every time one of the full animations were revealed was a fantastic joy. On top of that every frame of every animation was a treat, beautiful.

The sheer joy and excitement of everyone during the reveals is so beautiful

Every single one of these animations left my jaw on the floor! I am blown away by the talent in this group.

BEST GARTIC PHONE VIDEO YET!! Some timestamps so I can rewatch it again and again Pikachu X Sonic: 24:03 Giorno X Topo: 26:40 Wario X Captain Falcon: 29:17 Mordecai X Twilight: 32:02 Hollow Knight X Pato: 34:43 Mia Shiranui X Kirby: 37:19 Sephiroth X Kirby: 39:52 Sol X Ragna: 42:20 Don Patch X Dr. Eggman: 45:14 Isabelle X Doom Guy: 47:41 Finn X Sponge Bob: 50:27 Megaman X Batman: 53:18 Lola X Tails: 56:08

My favorite thing about this entire video is the group slowly realising "OH SHIT ARE WE AN ANIMATION STUDIO NOW?!?"

Simply incredible. The music absolutely SLAPS, emphasizing just how AMAZINGLY the drawings flow into each other in such DRAMATIC ways; creating such OUTSTANDING animations that you guys made off-handedly. HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU GUYS DO IT!!! Those 4 hours were NOT wasted by ANY means!

This seems trivialized by the fact it's being done in a video game, but make no mistake, this is a beautiful form of art. This is the equivalent of visual jazz. This is the fusion of masters of their craft, coming together in a free-form, from the heart expression of art. This process of creating art should be appreciated for the beauty that it is and be utilized much more by artists.

Ross: Makes a giant cross-connection drawing event with some of the most talented artists he knows. Ross & Co. : Create incredible art Ross: *Surprised pikachu face.*

That Tails and Lola hand animation was AMAZING. No one anticipated that, with it brushing away the smoke! Perfection.

I think I've maybe watched this like 10 times by now. The sheer joy and hype just oozing from all of the talented individuals in this video is just contagious. F*cking outstanding, dude.

These fusions turned out AMAZING, you guys were super well coordinated and they all turned out looking awesome!

The timing of that beat drop from "The Only Thing They Fear Is You" at the reveal of 'Doomabelle' was absolutely sick: 47:43 Also, that Tails x Lola fusion is just...*spicy* "I'm not a furry, but..." couldn't be anymore relevant to that scene...

I LOVE SO MUCH HOW EACH ANIMATION HAD DIFFERENT EFFECTS OH MY GOD. THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED. MASSIVE KUDOS TO ALL OF U GUYS, THIS WAS FANTASTIC

This is the most insane video I’ve ever seen. You all are so talented!

normally I can't stand watching hour long videos, but a hour with these people? easy. This content is amazing I can't stop watching. keep up the good work!

Going to keep asking, and I'm not sure Ross probably has a list of ideas, but a movie of magical girl transformations into something at the end. Would be interesting to see what everyone comes up with.

Tails/Lola fusion is the epitome of "I'm not a furry... *BUT..."*

No words other than this is incredible. All of you guys are brilliant animators!

I think that everyone did great! It was really cool seeing each and every frame and how everyone handled each drawing, it's such a cool concept

in case you want to re-watch one of them pikuchu + sonic 21:56 finished gif 24:03 giorno + topo 24:33 finished gif 26:40 wario + cpt falcon 27:09 finished gif 29:18 mordecai + twilight 29:53 finished gif 32:02 hollow knight + pato 32:34 finished gif 34:43 mai shiranui + kirby 35:11 finished gif 37:19 sephiroth + kirby 37:43 finished gif 39:52 sol badguy + ragna 40:13 finished gif 42:21 don patch + dr eggman 43:07 finished gif 45:14 isabelle +doom guy 45:33 finished gif 47:41 finn + spongebob 48:19 finished gif 50:27 megaman + batman 51:12 finished gif 53:18 lola + tails 54:00 finished gif 56:08

There’s something so wholesome about a bunch of artists freaking out about how cool their FX panels

I love how everyone gets excited

Ross not being able to see things in his head explains why he kept forgetting how the pose goes 😅

Juny: draws something Everyone watching: Is this a flex?

55:50 The _absolute_ *JOY* in their voices

Bro... That tails and Lola one was PERFECT

These were all genuinely amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this!!

Pro animators are used to working for 4 hours straight, but never for such hype results. Since they traded off so often, they never had to feel bored working on the same thing. But they were able to rely on eachother to finish what was already started!

I just sat here with a stupid ass grin on my face for an hour straight. That was amazing. Can't believe how well these turned out. Also Juny is *insane*, cannot believe that dude is only 17.

I legit just keep coming back to this vid over and over and I never lose the smile I had from the first time that I saw all these amazing people work on something that brought them all so much joy!

46:50 the fact they are canonically married is funny

Ross (a professional animator) sitting there jawdropped and mindmelting in awe of every animation coming together was a sight to behold. You're all phenomenal artists and this was beyond entertaining. Fuckin unreal how talented a collection of people can be

Major respect to Ross laying down the house rules. Guests are guests, physical or otherwise. EDIT HOLY SPLIT THOSE ANIMATIONS THO

Dude that was the most amazing and wholesome thing I've watched in a while! The creativity and the harmony is overwhelming! Every single one of the animators has my respect and I sincerely hope they go places!

10:08 bro became a goose

4:10 Ross' indignation at having this Dragonball Fan status questioned is the highlight of this entire series so far.

Juny is a total powerhouse! A studio needs to snap him up asap.

All of these are actually so great. We need more.

24:04 love how they basically made Fleetway Supersonic

The amount of serotonin I'm generating just listening to everyone being so excited and proud of each other is unbelievable, this is like the most impressive and wholesome thing ever!

Juny's words perfectly described what I was feeling when watching this: "I screamed without the s"

24:04 woah, that looks truly amazing! Props to you guys!!!

One day, please do more of these fusions 😭 so inspiring

55:17 "not a furry but" the hands were drawn too well for this

Having the W become Falcons emblem is such an enlightened design choice.

42:21 Perfect timing
