Oh wow thank you so much for all the kind words, the team and I worked so hard on the nuzlocke and all the other videos so this was extremely appreciated :) and Ethan good luck with that character arc, bud
"It felt so much better to hate than to learn" After hearing this quote from E. Becker, I got promoted three times, got married, got three kids and my own netflix show. Thank you 🙏
That's just what Ethan does in every single "destroying xxx" video lol "xxx is a terrible artist, don't ever listen to them. Here's this amazing thing they do"
HE MAY BE WEIRD...WEIRDLY LEAGUES BRILLIANT ABOVE THE REST....HIS PERSONA IS GENUINELY THE WORST IN THE BEST WAY....ITS SO ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE....HE MAKES BEING A RESPECTFUL ASSHOLE LOOK EASY WHICH I'M SURE TAKES A LOT OF HARD WORK.....BUT TO BE HONEST...ITS SO GOOD , SOME OF IT HAS TO BE A GIFT YOUR JUST BORN WITH....
So many drops in such a short time! I might get use to this once more, I was finally getting through my sadness when you left us for so long. DON'T YOU EVER BREAK MY HEART AGAIN!!!
@@STICKMASTER178 ye man, but the video he released before this was about some drama with "fixing" art, so he said he wasn't going to use that word anymore lol
Jaiden told me to tell u this “up-down curve (which repeats every 2π radians, or 360°). It starts at 0, heads up to 1 by π/2 radians (90°) and then heads down to uh I forgot please get the gun away I don’t know what video your talking about”
Just because they don’t walk away from movies focused on the muscles doesn’t mean it’s not a nice aesthetically pleasing thing for the audience to see in the main character. The little things matter too.
I like how Ethan has the credits of the original video at the end so that people get that it's not only jaiden but also her team that help her put the effort in her videos
Super classy to keep jaiden's end credits there. Not surprising coming from another animator, but it's not something I would have considered if I made this video. Great video
that's the point of the video. ethan is obviously acting that way so viewers will learn that everything he had said at the first part was just wrong :/
I love how this wasn't actually dissing Jaden but mostly drawing the correlation of story telling from KIPO to her animations in a humorous way all while telling us what key factors are important in animation. I agree with Rad Sechrist, Jaden's work is amazing and despite the simple quality of it, her work is very elegant and she uses story telling very well. I love her
Just when I thought everything is lost and Ethan's ego would never let him appreciate Jaiden's animation - they use a simple, single, still shot from a dramatic angle to fully capture the catharsis where Ethan is confronted with his insecurities and misguided notions about animation. Such a fine resolution as we are shown Ethan letting go of his ego and letting Rad speak his mind. I'm moved by the character arc and effective message delivery. Masterpiece.
it's insane seeing some of my work in one of your videos with one of my favorite show's creators omg!!! this was so entertaining and so nice to listen to- thanks for giving us a watch!!
I love your videos... I know you're more about characters, but I'd love to see you explain backgrounds! Or at least get your best recommendations about that. I always struggle so much when trying to do concept art and sketches that aren't just the character standing in the middle of no where.
i really want to see one of these on gildedguy's stuff--his work has this wonky, "unpolished" quality to it that i absolutely love, and is a great example of work that doesn't look quote-unquote "professional" but is *highly* skillfully done
I love how Ethan’s purpose is to rob trolls and bullies of the gratification of being a jerk by portraying the dumb things they would say and drama through satire. Also really nice how he doesn’t leave the portrayal as two dimensional. Often times it is the hurt people who hurt people and they just need some help, ideally from a trained therapist.
I'm taking an animation course and its kinda weird to hear terminology that gets said in those classes. (This is mainly because the school i attend isn't American) Like "Simple Stupid" is something that gets said all the time in my world design classes, its cool to find that that is like a universal "slang" term in the animation world.
Reminds me of the intro to hardspace ship breakers or tbh any of the home world cinematic tbh - ending was hilarious, though. if i hadn’t grown up on gmod videos i might’ve thought it a touch too sincere.
I hope to god I could see another collab with these two, they’re like polar opposites Edit: I know that he puts up a show on purpose but its still funny
So the ultimate bestest animation is a translucent, super-muscly man crossing uneven terrain to punch a highly detailed, super unique and never been seen before monster in 60fps animated on 1s? Thanks Ethan!
I feel so thankful to be able to watch this, there's so much information and value in there that I wouldn't normally have by not being in the industry.
Ethan literally showed us a vision of an insecure artist that demands for his work to be real and look real, almost forgetting what made it charming in the first place
He produces the same energy as Michell Rives, just in the illustration section. I don’t know if this was obvious, or that I am just making a fool of my self. But I love it
