The song and more: jonesdavenport... I wanted to make a new icon, which led to me wanting to make a new banner, which led to me making this. Pretty much everything I'm most proud of.
No wonder you're so proud of them. They are, in my opinion, one of the greatest things you have created, and one of the greatest set of characters I've seen here on RU-vid. I wanted to thank you for the enjoyment your videos about this gang has caused for me. May peace, the force, and common sense be with you after all this time. :]
Three years later and I still hear "All Together come on in my music playlist. I never skip it, because I don't know what it is about it but it just speaks to me. I haven't thought of this channel in a while. I came to check up on your progress with "Off to Save The World" and it turns out this channel has been discontinued for the past nine months. Honestly upset me, because this is one of the two animation channels I watched throughout middle school. However, I've been going through similar emotional instances for the past year or so, and I'm glad you're finally moving on to another chapter in your life. I don't know if you'll read this, James, but I want you to know that your content was a part of my childhood, and though I'm sad I'll never watch a new episode of C-Students again, I'm glad you're abandoning the channel for your own personal growth. It inspires me to try and make similar changes. You're a good guy, and I hope one day I end up finding content by you once again.
I’m not sure why, but this video hold a special place in my heart. I remember watching James and his channel, a long with many others, constantly when i was younger. Back in 2012 and 2013, things felt content. And while then I could enjoy some good drawings and nice music, now looking back, older, and not necessarily happier, this video reminds me of that time when things didn’t matter. When you’re a kid, you just do whatever, and it doesn’t really matter. And thats what great about it. You don’t worry. After 2020, I just kinda miss those innocent times even more. But I’m grateful for videos like these to still be around and remind me of those times.
Again, here's the song plus more songs by the same artist: jonesdavenport.bandcamp.com/ Thank you to all who came to my live stream. I'll be posting updates on more possible live streams and other things on deviantart: animatedjames.deviantart.com See ya next time. May peace, the force, and common sense be with you.
"Thank you for ... money" *quickly deletes money* Phew, and here I was worried James' old humor would change as a result of all this madness. Thank god, don't know what I'd do if James' cynical sense of humor went away.
Listen man, your animations/speed draw/voice acting/fuCKING EVERYTHING YOU DO is amazing. There is always one channel I come back to watch, or to get a laugh out of, and that channel is yours. Dude everything you do is awesome. Im not really a Brony, but you make it look amazing. You've inspired me to draw, and do countless other things. When I was younger I even tried to draw a colab-esc thing with all of the people I like, really isnt alot. I know you get alot of comments like this, but it was needed to be said. I'm 14 and until the day I die, you will always inspire me, and make me want to do the awesome things you do. Hang in there and stay strong/proud/awesome. Sincerly, Karma.
Yeah James was a great animator. It's just a shame he discontinued the channel (specifically c students, I fucking loved that). I guess it's safe to say farewell, from wherever to Manhattan
+Don'tWatchTheWorldBURN im really good at drawing faces with really unique emotion but not faces like he made i mean like a stick figure or something with a good emotioned face and its not perfect but there good
Congratulations on the 400,000 subs James. I'm your biggest fan, I always wanted to be a animator like you. You are my hero, you cheer me up with your animation. I could never live without you because your my most favorite animator, love you James.
I just wanted to say that your animations and drawings and sketches really inspired me as well as the rest of your fans. I hope you do more in the future
Just wanted to take a moment to comment that over the years I've been inspired by multiple artists and animators, you being one of them, and it is people like you who have kept me going and trying harder at drawing and digital art. In short, thank you James.
You may not get this message, but was with you ever since I saw your videos. Thank you for the videos, and I respect your decision if you don’t want to continue. Goodbye old friend.
James you are the best in this world never stop please you are the reason for my creativity in app/game production. buut i am very bad at art and animation well you will always give me the motivation to try on. Thanks You Are The Best!!!!!
+The Radionic Corp I believe he said he was working on an animation for the series before all the drama broke down production. Hopefully things will start picking back up and that'll be tossed back in the hopper for the near future, but I think the key thing right now is time. We need to let things start picking up speed again, especially after everything that went down prior.
James, you're one hell of being not can you only animate but you reach in to our hearts you're amazing and I only hope you continue your work and go forth to create a new series which we will all love and more songs all of us are here for you to support you! you're amazing , keep up the good work, we all love you dude
Man your so good at what you do, I love you, and i would love for you to make more videos involving these characters here. The way you put Creative Types, is just perfect. Just listening to the song and watching the video makes you feel good, and thats something a lot of us need in life right now. I hope you keep making videos like this, they really inspire a lot of people.
Hrrg I can't get over how much I'm appalled!!! I imagine, making just a five-minute video but having to do this to every frame... Wow. Hard worker!!I hope you continue doing amazing things in the future! Arigato gozaimasu for everything you've done!
This drawing is by far the most excellent one you've done (dang that lightning goes well with your style) But it only lacks one thing : You, in the middle, as the link between all those characters and universes. Cuz' you're the one who created it. *And you'd better be goddamn proud*
Has anyone ever told you how uplifting your stuff is? Especially the "Creative Types" video. I must mention that that video came at a very crucial part of my life. I was about ready to give up on horse fame altogether when I found that one and it was so sweet to see you portraying other (albeit fictional) people who were going through the same shit I'm going through: not achieving view counts/subs/watchers as fast as they initially intended. Fortunately, there is kindness in this world that offers respite from the cruelty that exists everywhere, primarily in the form of internet comments and 4chan.Thanks again for being such an amazing person.
you are such a good artist and an even better animator whenever i watch your videos im always feeling happy and i hope you stay for a long time, keep up the good work animated james. :D
+AnimatedJames Your AMAZING dont let ANYONE tell you other wise! their probably just jealous they cant do what you can, Make others happy! (and animate amazingly!) and also congrats on your 400,000 subscribers YOU DESERVE EVERY SINGLE 1! (=^~^=)
James I love your animations and I can't wait till C-Students 2 full episode and many more animations I create animations... but I never upload them ... mostly because I suck at making them I mostly post them on FrameCast where nobody hates that much But your animations are awesome and I can't wait to see more
You've really improved over the years, James! I remember when Sonic VS MLP began, I thought it was pretty great... But, you've REALLY improved, now that you're able to deal with the depression and stay smiling... 10/10
That was amazing!!! You make the best animations I've ever seen! I'm glad you made this speed draw of all of your characters. It showed their personalities and how they felt about each other. This was amazing James!
Good job with the animation and unique art style, this really shows how far you made it through "Hell and back". Good job with the better quality and smoothness. I look up to you as a role model, like Audie Murphy, and Ronnie Shalvis. This has shown that no matter how bad a situation is, never give up on what you love, which is for you, animating, and me, martial arts and parkour.
I really can't express enough how glad I am that you're back. It was really interesting seeing how you make your art. I was mostly interested by how you did the shadows. I didn't know what the red lines were for at first. I'd love to see more of these. Is the end result on your DeviantArt? I'll take a look... :)
I LITERALLY did absolutely nothing but watch and listen to this for, about an hour. This artwork is beautiful, and the music is beautiful. You are an important part of my life, James. Even though we don't know each other, you still mean a lot to me.
Keep it up man love your art and everything you make don't stop what ever you do keep it up and don't let others let you down or anger you just keep going and doing your thing no madder what just keep going you will soon see that what you make, makes us smile and be happy inside and others that cant understand or are just rude can kick it to the curve just keep what your doing man there's many of us that love your work keep it up man. PS: don't give up on anything or any one then you can do anything you want trust me on this.
I always knew that to be amazing at animation you HAD to be just as good as still-frame. I'm so glad you did this, I love it! Plus, you seem so much happier now, your old banner/icon didn't for anymore. I hope you are enjoying everything, you have a good day/night. (not sure if our times are different...)
When I first saw the new banner on your channel yesterday I was like, HOLY CRAP WHAT HAPPENED THIS IS AMAZING!!! James, you truly are an amazing cartoonist buddy. Keep it up😜
