The Mawarikomi/Rotating Tracking Shot 

what would you recommend me as someone trying to learn animation? something that was helpful to you, like an exercise, a source of information etc

How are you doing? I wanted to ask if you’re open for commissions on a small animation promo?

Are you able to pay rent with this career?

The man who thought me how to use clip studio paint for aniamtion!

The color yellow has a specific reason. It is to indicate the main character in the sequence (A kind of animated storyboard) by highlighting it separately from the background. The yellow color indicates what is going to be animated in the frame for the sequence. (This is something that comes from cel animation when each frame was traced and colored by hand)

@@Nolroa Tha's fascinating! I never knew that. Thanks for pointing out the reason behind it :). I figured there was probably a method behind it but never heard the reasoning. Appreciate it!

If you know how to draw buildings from memory, you can draw them quicker. But there are Tricks to do a massive rotating city shot without killing yourself: 1: Simplify the buildings in motion. *People are biased,* so if you have a static shot of a detailed, painted background of a city followed in the next shot by rotating or panning around cubes with less detailed linework and simplified shading, People's minds will fill in the blank because they already recognize the moving shapes as buildings. 2: Parallax scrolling This is when you take static images that aren't supposed to rotate and scroll them on different layers in space with different timing depending on their distance from the camera (The further back something is, the slower it moves) . You can actually add this to the first trick to include some more detailed and even painted buildings moving in the foreground of the shot. Not only does it generate depth, but if done with #1 it keeps the illusion of a moving, detailed cityscape. 3: Split the work between people Lets say have a key animator put in the general shape and even some detail of the buildings but have a person or small team come in and detail them. This is a less common approach. 4: Use 3D, lol.

3d.

depends on the shot. Got any examples? Can explain how it's done if I see that.

U mean like the soul eater intro?

@@CorralSummer I can't remember where I've seen shots like I was describing. But picture if a camera drone circled a skyscraper from a distance while keeping the camera trained on the skyscraper the entire time. You get a spinning skyscraper at the center of the shot, and the rest of the buildings in the shot are all similarly changing perspective and "shape" as they are viewed from different angles. I couldn't find a good example, but you can see a point perspective changing a little bit at 2:17 of this flying AMV ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IjZZeeTuWfg.html

It's just the default G-Pen from CSP

Red = Highlights or color separation. Blue = Shadow

Yeah Blue outlines = Shadow Red outlines = Highlights And sometimes, animators fill in those line with those basic color codes : Purple/pink = Hair Shadow Yellow = Highlights Green = Inside of the eyeliner Lighter Blue = Skin/Clothes etc. But it's very up to you and your fitting. Honestly, I use pink for the accessories and orange for skin Shadow. It's up to your choice to fill in with as many colors as you want to your own color and coloring spot choice.

At's especially guide for the 2D camera.

Well, actually, it comes with the template, so it's pretty much useless 😭
