TRUE! Im trying a simple walk and movement of the head knowing nothing more the basics, the ball help me a little with timing and in-betweens but doing all others are helping me a lot to learn! Trial and error with observation
Just to be as clear... I'm just 18... I a NOOB on this animation stuff... but I've seen many animations and when I really really love them... and they inspire me... I save them in a little private playlist under the name of "Motivations". This video is the new king in that playlist. c: I love your work man. Keep up the good work
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos! They're extremely insightful. I've noticed that even if I already have a basic concept on how to do things discussed in these workshops, there's always something new I pick up from it that I never thought of before.
I recently came across your channel and just wanted to say that I greatly appreciate you sharing your animation knowledge. Your videos have been very informative and entertaining. Thank you very much for taking the time to do these demos.
i know Im randomly asking but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I love any tips you can give me!
@Jeremy Braxton thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jeremy Braxton DAMN IT ACTUALLY WORKED! Just hacked my instagram login within about 30 mins of using the site. I had to pay 15$ but definitely worth the price =) Thanks so much you saved my ass :D
Thank you for taking the time to make this! It was very useful and I went through it carefully, writing down notes of everything important. I learned a lot more than I even expected to learn from this. As for the Patreon question, I would definitely donate for the perk to see unedited footage. Observing you work unedited is good for seeing you use everything you talked about being used in practice in an uninterrupted workflow.
This is awesome! How long does it take to in-between a scene like this? PS. I think around 46:49 you accidentally overlapped two voice overs ^^' but it's fine we can still hear it.
46:49 what the hell happened? That scared the shit outta me and I couldn't understand what was being said XD still the best video about charts and in-betweens I've yet to see on youtube, tho!
I was thinking during this whole video "Where do I support this guy??? Does he have a Patreon???" and then you mentioned potentially getting one later in the video, hooray! I might or might not watch the inbetweening videos if you posted them but I would absolutely support you anyway just because I LOVE your videos and have gotten just so much out of them. I'm a working pro but I feel that I never got a really in depth explanation of a lot of these concepts - so I appreciate these very much. I probably WOULD watch some of the inbetweening videos but I think you're right it's hard to watch someone inbetween haha. I would watch enough of them to pick up tips and get re-inspired tho! Thanks for all you do, it's a great help!
Wow this was uploaded 4 years ago and I’m only now finding... Amazing video that all beginner animators should watch, this was awesome and I think that the complexity with the dual timing charts was fantastic for beginners to see how timing charts could be applied to other more complex projects.
protip: You can scrub his conclusion using the "" keys when the video is paused so you can see exactly where he placed his keys and breakdowns! Super useful for when you're learning on YT! :D
I don't think watching you doing the inbetweening is boring at all, rather inspiring and I actually was happy to see most of the process (because you explained your thought process as you worked on it and I learned alot). Thank you so much for sharing your method, this is a treasure! I've had trouble with having consistent volume while doing animation, and I came across the how to keep it consistent on your youtube profile. again I appreciate it.
i've been stuck at timing for so long, this was extremely helpful! the timing chart, and how you showed it, is the solution (i feel like) to overcome this obstacle :D amazing video, thank you!
These are so much fun to watch! It's really cool to see the entire process in full. The crazy thing about animation to me is that how much work goes into every one of these frames.
Thank you so much for sharing this content with us! It's exactly what I needed! (I know this is super duper old, and you're on to bigger / cooler things ) but even this older content works! Thank you!
I have to thank my animation skills to this video. looking back, i did not know any of the stuff you showed here, but as i watched this video time after time i began to learn. Such a good video.
Thank you for making a lot of videos like this. I've learn so much! I came to youtube with zero knowledge. Now I can actually animate simple movements! Thank you so muuuch! I'll always promote your works and recommend people to watch and support you! You dah best sensei!
After over a decade of illustration, and a few basic pixel art animations every now and then, I'm deciding to get into animation. I've seen timing charts brought up a lot, but for some reason, it never really clicked that they were like...between the keys/extremes, I thought you just made one for the entire scene. Which...makes no sense, lol. You also mention the animation needing a dual timing chart like it's a bad thing, but honestly, I'm happy to know that I'm not restricted to just one, which might've bit me in the ass later.
I was about to start as an in-betweener so watching this video taught me a lot and inspires me to enjoy every bit of working on animations. Thank you so much for the time you spent on these videos!
I just came across this channel and by god, what amazing timing. I recently found out about TVPaint and it sounds like I would really benefit from it as I am a huge fan of traditional frame-by-frame animation and these workshop videos are exactly what I need to get into it
Ah this pretty much explains what I was confused about in the timing chart video. Still very confusing(I get confused with the difference in pose in the breakdowns, and the spacings between frames if that makes sense), but we're getting there :') thank you so much for the video, it helps a lot.
I feel so inspired after this video. I'm actually just starting out and those tutorials are very helpful. Thank you very much. It's still a long way for me to be able to animate good but your videos inspire me to keep going
Aaaa this is so awesome! Its so smooth and looks like the character is alive on its own :0000 You’re amazing at animating i hope to be an animator in the future :)
Man, I can't thank you enough for the time and effort you've put into these tutorials, especially this one! As someone who want's to be an animator and learn about it your videos are extremely helpful!
Hey man. Thank you so much for doing that kinda of thing... I'm currently at an animation college and your videos and tutorials have a big impact on what I'm doing and how I can understand and help my friends to understand more about animation in general! Get to see an animation done, even if it's just a small part of your daily job, it's really pleasant. In the name of Senac's Design Animation class, I truly thank you for all your videos and help! :D
Great video! Somewhere back in 2021 or 2020 I asked you more about timing charts after watching the previous video and this video gave me a good insight about numbering and positioning drawings in duration/timeline according to the charts.
Thank you so much for this! I'm trying to learn all these tricks, like the dot method, and drawing to the page the timing graph. I'm hoping to head to Gobelins this summer, and this may really help me get things done faster and with more quality. I hadn't thought about spacing asymmetrically like one avoids twinning, that should really help loosen my more stiff animation. Again, thank you!
1:07 a little question, you say you put circles for keys and put one line for breakdowns, but what do you do for extremes ? Is it even useful to distinguish extremes from breakdowns ? Cause for example I'm animating a character right now and between 2 keys I have 4 breakdowns because it's a slow out and slow in, but the first breakdown I did was the one that link both of my keys, the 3 others poses are just poses that link my keys to this "principal" breakdown pose So thoses 3 others poses are extreme if i'm correct ?
i wish i would have come across this video sooner, it makes this things so much clearer and it will help my a lot!! thank you so much for taking the time to make this videos!!!!
I’m so glad I found your channel! Animation is one of my all time favorite hobbies and I hope HOPE 🤞 I can make a career out of it! Your tutorials inspire me and are SUPER helpful!! Thanks!
This is an awesome video. I’m brand new to drawing and animation (1 month) and really would like a career. Your video cracked my head but it made total sense! Thanks for sharing your knowledge
thank you so much this was great! I also had a good laugh on how much you where starting to regret animating this as you went on :) Still very good since I am not sure how to tackle overlapping animation!
hello! i've watched your entire videos and it really helped me a lot :D though I still have a question in mind; you know when animators animate on a paper, usually they'd put a + sign on the edge of the drawing. what are the functions, and how do they transfer the animation from papers to digital and sync them so the animation doesn't go fuzzy and wiggly? um, maybe the exact question is how do they sync the + sign at the same place in digital? I'm sorry if my english confuse you. Thankyou, and greetings from Indonesia! :)
toward the end of your video starting at 45:00 it have overlapping voices, it could be a problem with editing?ps: make sure to add close caption please :)
Yes please make a patreon! I will totally be a supporter! I would love to see more of the grunt work because I have so much trouble with inbetweening! Plus I'm kinda surprise you don't have one :p
These are really awesome demos, I'm learning a lot....would you ever consider taking animation submissions like characters and doing draw overs to correct them, just to show how you would critique your peers?
