A cartoon parody by Matthew Shezmen

[@Sojaklecks]

Thats exactly how I imagined it would be like to animate. And hell, I would never have the confidence in myself to keep this shit together. I just realized why animators don't go big with their animation in terms of lenghts. They would lose themselfs in the bigness of their animation, lose focuse and ultimatly lose what made them start it. But you did it. You can be proud of yourself. I didn't sub last time, but now I did. I would love to see more of how you do stuff. And thank you for doing this. You are kind of an inspiration with what you are doing.

[@Shezmen88]

Dude... i'm gonna pin this comment in a heartbeat. Not only you nailed perfectly the gist of what it feels to be an animator these days, but also i really appreciated what you said...seriously, It's really kind. These are the type of comments that give me the strength to continue. Cheers man.

[@danhenneman7808]

Matthew Shezmen your voice is just perfect👌👌👌👌

[@Shezmen88]

hahaha thanks dude..

[@tonrockallmighty4847]

i found ur channel on the metal gear vids and they were awesome as hell

[@Shezmen88]

thanks man!

[@skalibran]

So I gave Dark Souls 3 my third try (the first time I gave up, the second time my savegame got lost). Then you uploaded Dork Souls 3. After the first minutes, I decided to not spoil myself and to beat the game before watching Dork Souls 3. I've done it in three days. To watch your video was my motivation to keep going! Thanks for that! Also, no regrets. I've learned to love the game and your cartoon was worth the pain. :-)

[@Shezmen88]

Hahaha that's an awesome story dude. Well done ;) I also beat ds3 in about 3 days the first time. Kudos!

[@sleep3417]

3 days? isn't that kind of rushing it? i've always taken my time with ds games as i feel it's the best way to experience them.

[@Shezmen88]

Yeah but i was in a rampage of seeing what was the next. I remember my elbows were hurting so bad (i play with keyboard-mouse)...the first day i skipped sleeping too (i got to the abyss watchers) second day Pontiff and the last day Cinder+Nameless king. My next playthorughs were way more slow tho, i explored every nook and cranny ;)

[@Krosstic]

Skalibran did you ragequit at abyss watchers?

[@Krosstic]

Matthew Shezmen see I did the exact opposite of what you did...I went and did all achievments and items my first run...took me about a week...and then I speedran through for alternate boss weapons and titanite slabs

[@Shezmen88]

Hope you guys enjoy this (brief) look into my editing / animating process! ^^ cheers

[@theheadlessstickman]

second like

[@beyondtrollers]

The quality of your videos and the effort put into them just make my day brighter and better, thanks man!

[@Shezmen88]

dude that's super nice, thank you!

[@_ender]

thanks Matthew for making these awesome videos. I have seen all of them. The first on I saw was the Fellout 4. Keep up the great work man.

[@Shezmen88]

Sweet dude, thanks! ;)

[@steveheist6426]

3:15 What he means by "tip of the iceberg" is that, on top of creating the video, he has to record/mix/create the audio files, place them in this editor, shrink them to the appropriate length, and align them so they aren't mistimed with the video. This often takes multiple attempts with little adjustments to get right, and recording the audio itself might take multiple attempts also to get right (I recorded a six minute-long single audio file thrice over before I was happy, and there are a lot more files in there than that.) Major props for having the ability to do this!

[@Shezmen88]

True dude. It's cool that you understand how this stuff works. Also yeah, i've shown just a single scene breakdown but that same process it's the same for EVERY OTHER SINGLE scene in the toon. The nightmares. :')

[@steveheist6426]

Matthew Shezmen Great things take time!

[@ghost5175]

You are one of the few people that I can share and encourage others to see/subscribe to you. Thank you and I'm looking forward for your next video!

[@xdiminisharx6015]

This is absolutely insane. Congratulations on the mentions as well, you deserve it so much. I love your videos. Keep doing it what you're doing buddy!

[@1991SuperMAX]

wow!!awesome work sir... you really deserve way more recognition for your hard work.....

[@ibrahimgintoki7725]

everything u make is great keep up the good work ,i love everything u did man

[@Kaxology]

To think that a 25 minute cartoon made by ONE man is better than *some* cartoons made by huge companies.

[@Shezmen88]

that's extremely kind dude, thank you very much.

[@VladTepes151]

Thank you sincerely for all your hard work. When Im able to be sure that I'll contribute happily to your channel. Very excited to see what you put out next.

[@Shezmen88]

Awesome dude, thank you! ^^

[@thicccatto6439]

What a huge work... Thanks to make quality videos like that for us ^_^ Love from France

[@Rhettamations]

I love this parody and your animations! And please keep doing behind the scenes stuff its really helpful and it's nice to see what all goes on behind the scenes of an animation :D

[@saltymcsalt549]

So much respect for what you do Matthew. Love all your vids and I always look forward to more of your incredible work. Huge inspiration so keep up the awesome work. Take it easy, you deserve it :)

[@Shezmen88]

Awesome dude, thank you!!

[@goblinpidar6965]

I have watched all of your animations... THEY'RE AWESOME!!!

[@Philipperodrigues]

Man, I always knew you worked hard and I'm glad you're showing the public how much you have to do. Most didn't have a clue, and don't value properly what you do . Keep on , you're amazing !

[@Shezmen88]

Thanks man. :) You are amazing too for watching and appreciating.

[@thegamingchef9619]

The hard work you put into these videos is OVER 9000!!!

[@user-fj2ys8co1p]

The effort you put into it!.. You are awesome!😄

[@SoulDancin]

so much dedication. Well done! You deserve more sub.

[@Raul_Ghost]

I had to hit the Like button, because this is awesome, a simple 6 seconds scene is composed by a lot of little elements, which have to be done separately. I just cannot imagine how you did the rest of the video. It's a fantastic job, man.

[@Shezmen88]

Thanks man! ^^ i think i will do some more scenes breakdown maybe about the characters if you guys want. Cheers!

[@doodledoodoom5838]

watching your videos always puts a smile on my face

[@politic17]

you deserve it man, you're a freaking awesome animator and voice actor

[@skinmysensability]

this is awesome! thanks for making these videos

[@BlueJayGaming]

Great work dude! I do a lot of video editing and I personally find it SO satisfying to zoom out and look at all of my progress when I'm finished with my project. Keep up the good work!

[@Shezmen88]

hehe i know that feel. In this case it was frustrating cause even by zooming out there were too many layers! ^^'

[@georgejoplin6233]

Love the vids. Keep up the good work man.

[@keixayaka]

Thanks for sharing your process! Animating takes so much time and effort so I'm a bit overwhelmed to seriously start. But seeing your crazy timeline and the finished product makes me guilty for not even trying, so thanks for this. And yes please more behind the scenes!

[@Shezmen88]

ok dude awesome. Do your thing. Never give up, you will improve your work and grow one step at the time. You just have to do it with passion.

[@anthonyseboe4646]

lol I saw your Dork souls video and I was hooked. You're really good m8.

[@JohnGarett]

Best of luck in future Matt, keep up the great work

[@Xhiiki]

great work man! not slot of people have the determination to make videos this big! thank you for taking the time out of your life to entertain thousands to millions of people you don't even know!

[@Shezmen88]

thank you for watching dude! loved the comment.

[@priestunicorn1384]

Watching your parodies especially the Dork souls one made me laugh loads. I fell of my chair, the Drok Souls one has also helped me make up my mind to get it and its expansion packs so thank you and keep up the good work

[@joshualock7980]

that's a lot of work Jesus. congratulations on doing such a great job on all of you're cartoons

[@tritondemius3723]

[@Shezmen88]

Wow dude that's really kind. Thanks for watching my work! :)

[@ArcherLP]

Good shit man, Your animations are fucking amazing and I look forward to seeing more.

[@AliceinEntropy]

This was great! As someone who just wants to start editing this was cool to see. I'd love to see more.

[@Shezmen88]

awesome dude :)

[@ghostphantom7444]

Excellent work for design & piece of arts... 👏👏👏

[@fancychef92]

thanks for your awesome videos! great job!

[@MsLimaqq]

Oh my...Matthew, you've done such an incredible job! I mean, even thinking about the amount of work you've done makes my head explode ^^ they say that there's "one man army", and you are "one man animation". Thank you so much!!

[@Shezmen88]

Thank you so much! ^^ Trust me, my head exploded several times after i started animating :)

[@anerdwitdacamera204]

very impressive you did all these work yourself! amazing!

[@Shezmen88]

:)

[@jamesharte2445]

Your work, your editing, the voice acting is just amazing, not only are you talented artist but an amazing screen writer, Director, producer, an all round person, If you had the money and time you could make an entire Hollywood level animated movie, maybe even better than most animated movies nowadays! I really respect the hard work you put into these masterpieces! I hope one day you get the recognition you deserve!

[@Shezmen88]

Yo James, that's really kind.. i mean..thank you so much! Brightens up my day dude. cheers!

[@Ruftinator]

Pretty cool to see how it much work you have put into this. Quite mind boggling actually

[@Shezmen88]

thank you dude. This is like 2% of the whole thing... ; )

[@remixemall]

Thats incredible bro! That must have took months to years to make, very impressive! Ive never done anything over 5 minutes, and that was hard, so i cant imagine how hard it was for you to make this animation. Respect bro, i love your cartoons.

[@letsanimateit1676]

That shit was so great and well animated, great job!

[@sebastiangustanto7790]

Thanks for the awesome videos dude, you made my day with your videos after i found your channel lol

[@Shezmen88]

I'm really glad mate! :)

[@jaygosselin1282]

this was so cool to see, makes me appreciate the episodes even more

[@Shezmen88]

awesome dude, thank you!

[@TheMeatSlapper]

Your Animation and Humor are amazing you deserve more subscribers than you can actually imagine

[@Shezmen88]

Hell yeah man! ^^ thank you!

[@michaelhauptli2186]

man you deserve all this credit they give to you. :) ih happy for you

[@thesourceofthenile]

I've been editing on premiere for years now, and I can feel your pain with all of the work shown in the timeline. It's a good way to visually display how much you put into a single project.

[@Shezmen88]

^^

[@jhinabloomingflower807]

Matthew Shezmen hopefully you get what you deserve out of this hard work, I will always try to support your work and time you put in these animation projects, thank god you even got attention from the company itself! Well done man :D I feel happy for you, you seem to be a very cool and good person

[@Shezmen88]

That's super kind dude, thank you very much.

[@jhinabloomingflower807]

Matthew Shezmen its a shame to hide the truth don't you think? You deserve it, enjoy it :D

[@killsall7735]

The video was insane! Props to you

[@ryanw1359]

Amazing work man. I've only been watching you since around 90k subscribers, but I love your dedication and the work you put in. I hope you keep growing and are able to keep putting so much time into your work. Just a suggestion, break your videos into multiple parts! I gurantee none of your subscribers will mind because we all support you and it will allow you to make more money for your work

[@Shezmen88]

thanks man. Breaking the videos doesn't work though because youtube pays you more if the video has more minutes watched. I wish i could...! It's the freaking algorithm that's so bad for animators, that's why i use patreon to help my activity.

[@heide7035]

Simply amazing work!

[@mr.waiyanlin1791]

Love your videos man!!!

[@yhimir2362]

Dude your work its awesome!!!

[@its2006baby]

Man how much time did it took to make such great animation (World Class Quality literally!!!!)? Hats off man ....🙇🙇🙇🙇

[@Shezmen88]

Almost 5 months working 11 hours average per day dude..!

[@LilTomDubs]

Matthew Shezmen jeez

[@its2006baby]

Matthew Shezmen Excellent job bro your Dark Soul 3 Animation is the best!!!

[@luka2710]

Sono un fan di quelli silenziosi e te lo voglio dire in italiano perchè a meno che non mi sbaglio è molto chiaro che tu sia italiano nonostante tu parli molto bene l'inglese, in ogni caso il succo è che sei FANTASTICO ammiro tantissimo l'impegno e la fatica che metti in ogni tua creazione / opera. Ancora i miei complimenti continua così!

[@Anozira]

Can we get this guy an award already? Seriously one of the best animators on KZbin. Your work ethic and drive makes me jealous dude. Keep up the sick work mate! And thank you again for promoting the music

[@Shezmen88]

Dude, you realize how talented you are for making these sick tracks? :) You are in all my behind the scenes/Announcements videos my friend, and that's because i simply love what you do. :) cheers man

[@pepelaugh4091]

Find you channel with the Dork Souls 3 video. Never subbed as fast to anyone! You deserve the views dude!

[@AlexLaTerreur]

I really appreciate you work. The art style is pretty clean and it looks great. I look up to people who make animation. It's amazing to think what went behind the scenes. I'm trying to make an animation myself and I'm starting to hate it because it's not going anywhere. I doubt it's gonna be done anytime soon. Can't wait to watch your ff15 parody. Keep it up!!

[@Shezmen88]

Awesome dude, thank you! ^^ Just practice and never give up, do it man!

[@tahmidtaki7789]

keep up the good & hard work :) like ur stuffs very much.

[@preddyboi3467]

i saw some great animatons but this is one of the best i have ever seen.when my friend first sent me this i was like: oh cool another animation and at the end i was like HOLY CRAPARONI THIS WAS LEGEN wait for it DARY you did really great and i want you to keep up the good work! i admire you from now on!!!

[@Shezmen88]

that's so cool dude, thanks to both of you!

[@Grim4109]

Nice going man keep up the good work

[@nkanyisoinnocentkhwane3752]

It's pretty funny that even though I support you on Patreon a lot of the times I forget that there's a reward like when you mentioned it at the end I was like "Oh" because I feel like the video is rewarding plus I get to help you out a bit

[@Shezmen88]

:)

[@theinternetexploreruser4276]

Very good work. It's great to be living on times where we have free access to so much top quality content. Thanks for sharing your work with us and appreciate the "behind the scenes" idea. If not for more, at least helps us realize how much effort is put into this, and maybe give the necessary incentive to start learning animation :D

[@Shezmen88]

That's awesome dude thanks for appreciating my work. Install Chrome though it's way better! ;D

[@theinternetexploreruser4276]

I dont know man, with so many species going extinct every year...it just doesnt feel ok. Some buy Winrar, some use Bing, some visit google's 2nd page. Me, I keep an ancient browser away from an empty life :'(

[@Shezmen88]

haha XD well, i guess i should pull back what i said then, kudos to you for still using Internet explorer and be an hero among us my friend XD ;)

[@deadlightdrifter3462]

Wow Mathew, great moves keep it up proud of you!

[@MightGuy15]

fucking hilarious video that was bro. glad to have you with the souls community bro and keep up the good work

[@Shezmen88]

Yo man thank you so much! ^^ ;)

[@daskampffredchen9242]

I love this kind of videos.It s just interesting to see how all of this stuff works.Maybe you could do a Live-Stream of you animating and explaining some stuff but I think that would be complicated since you use 3 monitor

[@emiliano98mx]

damn that timeline.... bro you do a lot, it takes me like 6 days to make a simple animation of 3 minutes for school (on macromedia 8 actually) and you do all this in only 5 or 6 months, well that's love for your work and you are pretty good at it, i can see you like all this and you do a really hard work, so congratulations, you got my respect and also a new patreon, congratulations, dude, just amazing. Thank you for all the hard work you do, you do not deserve this, you deserve a lot more, i love how you put references on all your animations and the quality never is excellent, congratulations again. (i hope you get what i said, my english is no perfect)

[@Shezmen88]

Awesome dude i really loved your message i'm happy that you understand what goes into animating. And also thank you very much for becoming a Patreon, that's really cool. :)

[@Gameira]

after this video im going to watch dork souls for the fourth time

[@Shezmen88]

[@Shezmen88]

[@captaindryvids6909]

What the hell?! That's crazy! Good job.
