[@TheGuineaHog]

Incredible, this entire series is exciting!

[@shoebMohammad]

Shockingly underrated channel comparing the excellent contents shared here! Hats off, mate!

[@TdkSivakumar]

agree,. this is a real pro level content

[@JamesLui13]

Oh my God.. this is super amazing.. really love it 2D 3D Animation. We have follow the rig step, hope we can make simply like this.. Amazing video James ...

[@ZeroIQ-AI]

This gives me a new love for maya right now.

[@petop3]

the hand control is brilliant!

[@SquamashiiTutorials]

This is awesome! I have been binging your videos today. Please make more! I'd love to see more of your techniques for the more advanced character.

[@lucianomunoz]

Nice breakdown !

[@estephan90]

YES!!! more please!!!

[@HavekAttacketh]

I love seeing things like this

[@TdkSivakumar]

Absolutely Brilliant and Artistic. Thank you so much for sharing these valuable knowledge with us

[@OmarHesham]

Very nice! Excellent breakdown

[@annecaroline6957]

I loved it!! Thank you for the tutorial

[@yunusali7641]

Amazing work james. Can't wait for the next character to be rigged.

[@yobi3d]

Thanks for sharing

[@anibong8286]

Hi, I'm super happy found your channel :). it helps me a lot. Could I ask how to render these 2D in maya? thank you!

[@LordLuigi_Rigs]

Hell yeah!

[@sivapandianreffreference]

hey 10 watch it already , pls make more great video like this pls

[@sivapandianreffreference]

10 times watched

[@chrislagos44]

so the only 3d model in the scene is the ice cream cart. Also, what shader will allow for say a special effect such as a lighting bolt in the distance?

[@kamciaosak]

Very good Chanel New subscriber

[@incrediblesarath]

Wow 🤯

[@LucasSantos-cn4wb]

Do you use Python (or MEL) at all to ease some of the more monotonous processes of rigging?

[@jcrossley17]

I keep away from scripting in general. I'll write the odd expression to drive controls or a deformer based on another object's translation values, and I'll create simple shelf buttons (MEL) for selection sets... but that's pretty much it. I see myself as an animator first, I model and rig but stop short of getting into any real scripting.

[@Pilot_Whale]

what program do you use? and whatever your using do you haft to pay? im looking for animation programs for free thats 2d and have charcter rigging.

[@도미넌]

Hey James, I was so impressed by all your works and workflow tutorials. THAT ALL AWSOME! I will make an apology my poor english. I would ask some question. If you answer, I will so happy and I can make more awsome work! I'm making graduate animation now! I wonder. Can cinema 4d make same 2d - 3d ( which is introduced by you ) animation process and animating result like maya you introduced? I am using maya and c4d. But I am not sure c4d is good at character animating like maya. Maya is totally optimized in character animation I think. But c4d is more focus on mograph and simulation. Of cource, c4d can make character animation like maya. ( I'm not sure c4d contains facial animation tools like maya..) You think c4d can make 2d-3d(2.5d?) animation like maya? If not, there is no other choice except using maya? Thank you for reading my long boring question james! I will so glad by your answer~.

[@jcrossley17]

The concepts that I use for modeling and rigging should applied to 3D software in general. I haven't used Cinema 4D but I would look for similar tools that we use in Maya. Good Luck!

[@Conceptsofsanket]

How did you Import those Multiplane layouts ?

[@dapshere]

Pretty interesting. Have you tried animating on 2's (12FPS) so the animation looks more 2D-ish?

[@thomasantony3142]

make mor 2d tutorils pls

[@bharathmettu749]

wow

[@manatelugukathalu3813]

Please keep the link to download a character.

[@wolfsch]

I was wondering why you're doing this instead of using something like toonboom?

[@Generaleletrodog]

Maya is better for 3d and I think he just wanted to achieve a 2d 3d animation

[@CHACHILLIE]

Could I just import layers from AI into Maya and give them treatment?? 🤔 someone smell what I’m saying. I’m pretty knew to this but I may have just found exactly what I was looking for. I’m very impressed to say the least.

[@jcrossley17]

You can bring in an image and use it as a texture on geometry, if you use an alpha channel or transparency maps you can hide any extra geometry you don't want to render. But I don't know if you can import AI vectors and convert them to geometry in Maya. I bet that Autodesk has a script or way to do this since they have so many other design software beyond Maya. I looked for an option to do this in Maya but can't find anything, if I figure it out than I'll let you know. Cheers,

[@frolovyra01]

but try to make and where is the human hair face please what is interesting in 2D in 3D in 360 2D

[@cyberroland8061]

Are you able to do this in blender

[@jcrossley17]

I'm sure that you could do a similar technique in Blender. Maya is just my tool of choice; the modeling tools are great, and it's the best animation software I've used.
