Traditional is best imo….

You mean like foley?

Thank you very much!

same!

Actually interesting thing, no it is not sped up. It takes usually the same amount of time to animate a character in 3d as it would to create and animate these puppets. I spoke recently with someone who’s dabbled in both of these worlds and that was their experience.

Patrick WAS AWESOME! I loved speaking with him.

Thanks!

Thank you!

hi i love your work, smash was amazing :) youre really underrated :D

Any sources? I researched all over the place and some workers have said it was traditionally animated.

@@zaid.1271 i think i mixed things up. I did search again, and i couldn't find anything about rigged animation for family guy. only one very old posting, from an interview with seth (10+ years old), that it was traditional animation. But then again.. it's a very old comment from him.. perhaps they now combine animation types, to speed up the process (in Korea, where the animations are done)

^^^^^

??

Thank you!

agreed!

sure is!

right?! that was my reaction too!

Thank you!

That I didn’t research too much on, but i agree with you it does look like frame by frame animation.

Glad you liked it!

dude how’d you know?! that’s actually in the works!! well it’s gonna be about x-men 97. Still far from done though.

@@zaid.1271 oh, that’s great 👍🏻

it’s actually in the description, jordan beatty made it. He has a wonderful video on it and other rigs.

@@zaid.1271 yeah I was looking there but I couldn't see it, maybe I just read too quickly lol thanks

Joking btw don't kill me

that’s really cool! what are you working on? How’s the 3D animation harder?

@@zaid.1271 It's a 3D character living in the forest and telling stories, those stories being shown in 2D animation. Like if a friend is telling you about memories. And are you askong in which way 3D animation is harder? As I mentioned, it's a whole extra dimension you keed to animate. While 2D animation can also show depth, it comes naturally. You never draw anything clipping into each other, but that is what you need to look for, when animating a 3D character only from a side view, so in 2 dimensions.

@@marcfuchs6938 In 3d you have a rig and a camera that can move in any way though. I think it’s way harder in 2d especially for things like cars or more complex characters

@@zaid.1271 Yeah sure you have a rig and a camera - but talking about the complexity of animation, the rig and camera are parts of what makes 3D animation so demanding. In 2D animation, you don't animate a camera, it needs to be set before even drawing the scene. But in 3D you animate it, often at least. And the rig...... Well that's just a tool to make 3D animation merely possible. How hard or easy it is, depends on the quality and kind of your rig. It can make animation easier, but not easy in general. Other than that, you are definately right, depending on the content, 2D could be harder. I have always been amazed by anime, how well they sometimes animate things like cars. Keeping the perspective to look believable and not messing up the details. But today we are in a time, where anybody would use 3D for that. Either generating the actual object in 3D software, or rendering a preview, where artists then draw over it - keeping perfect proportions but still giving it the real hand drawn look. If I would produce an animated movie, that is the approach I would have my artists go.

Interesting question. If you get an answer let me know!

Thank you!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
