Animators React to Bad & Great Cartoons 12

[@milesmccreery7676]

this guy animated my whole childhood apparently

[@Xrayx_gamerYT]

Half of mine.

[@JohnnyWednesday]

If computers disappeared tomorrow - he'd still be an animator. Most 3d 'animators' can't draw a circle.

[@Xrayx_gamerYT]

@@JohnnyWednesday True, but yes they can draw circles, all of them.

[@leonardchurch814]

Yeah straight up

[@andrewvirtue5048]

Speaking of one person spanning the entirety of your childhood... Gray Delisle _voiced_ my whole childhood.

[@alastor461]

Ted seems like he would be an excellent college professor. He's very knowledgeable about what makes good animation, character, and flow. He also didn't mind explaining concepts and ideas. He did it in a very clear and concise way. Great episode!

[@kraze251]

Ted for Ted talks on Animation

[@DaimonAnimations]

He is, he is so supportive, I worked with him in an animated show. He doesn't make you feel less when he checks your shots, he instead tells you stuff like "what if you try this instead, wouldn't be fun?" He was a great lead and teacher in my short time working with him.

[@canineh2o227]

Right? 😂

[@brittanycunningham787]

Imagine thinking you need to go to college

[@DaimonAnimations]

@@brittanycunningham787 I did, I was a 2D Animator (not like traditional) more like Flash Animator but I needed to go to college to get into 3D Animation because it was beyond me!

[@jackbaxter2223]

The fight between Tai Lung and Master Shifu was absolutely amazing. The voice work, the animation, the lighting, the fight choreography. Everything about that scene is just perfect.

[@Darc_Kross]

TELL ME HOW PROUD YOU ARE, SHIFU!

[@RaiOkami]

I never appreciated Tai Lung's voice work at the time I first saw Kung fu Panda. But dang, in retrospect, it what made him seemed so strong. Ian McShane's performance was great!

[@Saimeren]

Ted might be my favourite professional guest so far. He's charismatic and feels super comfortable on the couch. He's knowledgeable and friendly and has great conversations. A lot of other guests just kind of stare off into space and nod every once in a while when either Wren or Niko are talking; but Ted actually listens and engages back. Good people skills make for great guests.

[@Smommasboy]

Please bring back Ted for another episode, this guy is the kind of animator that makes me love animation all the more

[@Samew0001]

I love how 3D animated movies are becoming more stylized, and not just that traditional Disney realistic animation. Things like spiderverse, new puss n boots, nimona, arcane, etc are just raising the bar for what it could look like.

[@SlashProducts]

I am glad this is happening because for a while it seemed like every 3d movie to come out looked or felt same-y

[@Vastad]

​@@SlashProducts Yep. You are reminding me of an image from a while ago showcasing "DreamWorks Face". Glad we are moving away from that.

[@thewisewolf768]

The last few years have been incredible for 3d animation. Awesome to see

[@Samew0001]

@thewisewolf768 yah I feel like at first they were just keeping with what was the norm, and still maybe figuring things out, till someone figured out that they could play with it and make it look however they wanted. And it's just so cool, almost gives these animations a comic book feel.

[@dasaggropop1244]

agreed, you have much more options than with higher grades of realism. you can go both ways: a little more detailed for serious scenes but also in a cartooish direction for comedy and action

[@StriipyvanFluffball]

I'm so glad I watched this video today. Nimona totally flew below my radar and I'm absolutely in love with the artstyle and especially Nimona's expressions! Definitely gonna watch that very soon! :D

[@Plasmagon99]

You can love Lilo and Stich at 3 years, 30 years, 300 years, or even 3,000 years; its just a really a good movie with heart warming family bonds.

[@cbjewelz]

Yup, I'm in my mid 30s and I regularly watch it with my partner

[@YaBoiBigNutz]

I think that's what makes it such a classic over others. It's not a traditional love story. It's about family and more than just blood, it's about found family as well. Just something anyone can relate to. “This is my family. I found it all on my own. It’s little and broken… but still good. Yeah, still good.” Makes me cry everytime

[@MrScorpianwarrior]

@@cbjewelz I'm just about to hit my 3,000s!

[@TauGeneration]

i'm literally 3.000.000 years old . i guess i can't love this movie anymore :(

[@kareningram6093]

This was an awesome interview. Ted's experience in both traditional and CG animation made for a really fascinating journey through his career, and I loved that you guys took the time to explain terms to us laymen. There's so many guests I want you guys to bring back, but every time you bring somebody new I add to that list!

[@wy4553]

This man is a perfect example of growth mindset. Absolutely loved his insight into not just the different types of animation, but also the culture that came with it.

[@itzdabbzz]

This man literally animated my entire childhood plus some. I can't thank him enough for giving me happiness, good memories, and more. Not only has he inspired me in many ways to continue going, but my favorite movie of all time. Lilo & Stitch. I have the original movie still on VHS, and Cd.

[@RiccardoMargiotta]

I can't recommend Nimona enough. My kids love it, so I've seen it more than a dozen times! The art and animation are absolutely gorgeous.

[@mandalore1089]

Not to mention the story and it's various themes are great.

[@hazonku]

Man, you guys just get bigger & bigger guests. Ted is a legend, what an absolute treat having him on the show.

[@Supercoop900]

I just want to say thank you for making these Animators React episodes! I just started my first year in college at an art school where I'd like to study 2d/3d animation so these videos help a ton. Love them and can't wait for more!

[@koboldcarl7528]

On your recommendation, I just saw Nimona and it is indeed amazing, animation-wise and story-wise. Thanks for bringing this film forward!

[@NickyG-NZ]

Interesting, from what i can recall Ted is the first guest who's talked about some of the areas he struggled or had to play catch up in the industry, but he clearly knows what he's doing and has a lot of ingenuity and passion which help overcome those challenges

[@juangrandefranco1297]

All art is a labor of passion and love, but hearing animators reminisce about stuff they've worked on always fills me with so much joy, man!

[@aceoft3482]

What a class act. Talented, knowledgeable, grateful, and humble. Also, what a portfolio! Thanks for landing him as a guest, guys. Also worth mentioning that your interview was expertly executed as always.

[@Winkmyster]

I love Wren's unfiltered childlike wonder and laughter.

[@FR4M3Sharma]

He's the only reason I watch these tbh.

[@ferozhossain9499]

He's basically an animation manifested. One of the few people who I think is genuinely happy. Reminds me of my childhood. I changed but hope he lives his life this way forever.

[@dasaggropop1244]

i think his enegery works much better when hes on his own, building some crazy stuff or figuring out how to show some mindblowing proportions. it can be a bit distracting in a group setting sometimes. (still love you wren)

[@3nertia]

@@ferozhossain9499 Same my dude, same!

[@Actimus123]

I'm different, I tolerate it because I respect anyone who is able to bring energy and positiveness, but my gut reaction is to cringe from his "over reactions"

[@namstel9225]

Yeah I'm going to watch Nimona soon! That looks like a very fun movie! Great episode there guys, I loved hearing Ted's experiences and how he's so passionate about it.

[@tonymoore78]

What a fantastic guest! Another amazing episode. Thanks so much guys!

[@tearstoneactual9773]

I haven't even heard of Nimona until today. But now I kinda really wanna watch it. It looks like a great story, and I'm already loving Nimona herself.

[@DarthRayj]

It's rapidly become one of my favorite movies of the year, and I've watched it at least 3 times now. I highly recommend it!

[@r-mur]

I've just watched it after seeing it here. And, yes, it absolutely is worth watching. Such a beautiful film!

[@NuttyMongrel]

Same I never heard of Nimona until this video. It's on my watch list for sure!

[@carlsoll]

15:25 Woahhh cool moment, also that’s neat you animators get dialogue to draw too. Awesome!

[@Gundumb_guy]

If you are an animation fan and haven’t seen nimona, you are really missing out! I thought it was great and I’m glad they brought it up because I think it’s VERY underrated at this point!

[@ginkitsune]

I haven't even seen any ads for it, but it looks so good.

[@repapeti98]

Normally I like to pretend that I don't have feelings and play tough but I almost cried like a little bitch at the end

[@Gundumb_guy]

@@ginkitsune that’s what I’m saying! I knew nothing about it until i randomly stumbled across it one night. It’s like it’s been shadow banned for having “touchy” concepts like 2 guys being in love. That’s just super extreme apparently and parents were super pissed after watching it apparently.

[@Gundumb_guy]

@@repapeti98 lmao me too! For me the movie was VERY relatable and I think people overreacted by a long shot about the “messages” the movie conveyed. Like dude, it’s 2023, the only reason your kids think it’s a big deal that 2 grown men kissed (more of a peck imo) is because you weirdos have made a big deal out of it.

[@r-mur]

​@Gundumb_guy Look, I'll be honest... I was a little surprised to see the affection at the beginning of the film (mind you, I've grown up in, and still live in a rather conservative town). But I think I was more surprised because it's not something we see often in mainstream media. For the film, it was perfect, and it made sense (without spoiling it) because it made the stakes so much more poignant and carried so much more weight. By the end of the film it all feels so much more deserved and so much deeper. I also just absolutely loved the whole film and it had the same sort of vibe as all of my childhood films (like Lilo and Stitch). It was such a joy to watch and a bit of a tear-jerker in parts too. We need more films like this and I only wish this one got more attention and hype, because... wow! What a masterpiece! And such a stunning art style!

[@oliveb5768]

I love when animators create iconic styles that you can immediately identify. There’s definitely some fantastic Disney animators that you just know their style so well because it’s so unique and effective.

[@AlbertaTrailCams]

Nimona gave me that same joy I felt watching How to Train your Dragon. I didn't see trailers for either and knew nothing about them and both blew me away

[@Pokeylope]

I was a huge fan of the Nimona comic and worried about the rumors of a troubled development but I absolutely ADORE the film. Some of the finest animation I've ever seen, so expressive, so ambitious, so creative. A masterpiece.

[@NautilusGuitars]

There's a lot more to Nimona that I wish you guys could see/react to. There were a few scenes that blew my mind in the detail they added. One scene was when one of the characters flipped a chess piece with his finger and how perfect the physics looked. The other is a bit blurry at the moment, but I think it's the scene where the post-it notes get ripped away from the wall or something similar. Both scenes are only a handful of frames, but the detail that went into them was exquisite and really blew me away.

[@kyloh8706]

this just unlocked some core memory of sorts. i just remembered i had a huge crush on gantu as a kid lmao i loved the lilo & stitch tv series, so underrated! definitely gotta give the movie a rewatch soon

[@SyntheticFuture]

I found Nimona by pure blind luck because I hadn't seen any promo for it anywhere =x Really cool movie. Totally has its own style and pacing.

[@TheRealAlpha2]

It feels like I just discovered an underrated classic by just how little I've heard of it before just recently and how eveything I hear about it is good.

[@CuidightheachODuinn]

Looks like a mash-up between wanting to be Steven Universe and Arkane. I'mma pass.

[@catsnorkel]

​​@@CuidightheachODuinn you are really missing out, seriously.

[@mattkidroske]

I hadn't heard of Nimona before this but now I've got to check it out! Great video

[@BioshadowX]

So glad you covered Nimona! Absolutely read the comic, I'd recommend it over the movie (though both a great)

[@TheSmytheFamily]

I loooved the honesty in this interview. The idea that a master animator had issues with walk cycles in 3d makes me feel better about my processes!

[@mellalune]

Love Nimona!! Great to learn some details about the production.

[@nightspicer]

The "CHARGE " Blender short would be awesome for the VFX series. As well as *Aslan from the Chronicles of Narnia!* where you could do a comparison to the "live action" Lion King. Also at the end of second Chronicles of Narnia movie there's a big water creature, so it might be cool to see what you think about that. Maybe also, Max Schneider's Gibberish music video, the editing kinda breaks my brain there. The *last agni kai fight from ATLA* would be perfect for for the Animators React. It's so stunning! And for stuntmen react It would be cool to see you react to the duel from "Potop", it's really good sword fight

[@cheekyboomboom8973]

Ted was such a great guest, loved this

[@gurujot951]

I just watched this video, then went to their website, signed up, and watched the extended cut. Fyi, totally worth it.

[@dbaider9467]

"What are you doing?"..."Oh I just did a stagger"...more of this lost art before it is all gone please. So interesting and enlightening.

[@niceperson180]

For another AMAZING example of eye tracing, the music video for Vision by Dreamcatcher has EVERY SINGLE SHOT lined up perfectly. Also the MV is almost entirely CG outside of the performers, it's gorgeous

[@DropIt56]

For another fun example that I think they already covered in a stuntmen react video I think, is the Kingsman movies. Plenty of action/fight scenes in those movies follow that same style, but I don’t remember if it was referred to as Eye Tracing.

[@anna_in_aotearoa3166]

I'm really glad they talked about that as a technique, because I feel like it's something I've often been missing in the editing and action-blocking of modern films (live & animated), but just didn't have the vocabulary to explain what my problem was...? In this world of super-fast intercut editing, I think well-planned eye tracking is more important than ever!! It's pretty clear how much a problem its absence can be when you watch super-cut-heavy action films where fight sequences just devolve into confused garble because one's eye can't follow what's going on...?

Crazy that he worked on over 4 movies with my Dad. Sadly he passed away back in 2016. I like to think they exchanged some critique with eachother although my father was in the surfacing department haha. Ps my dad did the whole jade palace :D

[@tearstoneactual9773]

Also, I love when the guests are also fans of the show, and actually happy to be there. :D

[@NovaBlueNova]

I hope this Ted and you guys realize that these videos absolutely are inspiring people to get into animation. I've doubted myself for years but seeing these guys talk about their passion for it has really reinvigorated my excitement for it.

[@The8merp]

This guys passion for animation shines through so much, I love how excited he gets when explaining the behind the scenes of how things were made, always giving credit to others and being humble, I hope they bring him for more episodes

[@Kjleed13]

I randomly watched Nimona when it first came out. Easy to enjoy when you know everyone else involved also thoroughly enjoyed making it. Highly recommend

[@r-mur]

I've just watched it now after adding it to my list based on this video. You are absolutely right in that it feels like a labour of love. The people that created it just wanted to show the world how beautiful they can make it. It even shows in the credit roll with the little animations that match each department. These people love what they do and are proud to show it!

[@OwOFinesse]

I still think every single one of the movies talked about in this video not only are gorgeous but also still hold up pretty freakin well.

[@danl6634]

Agreed, but let's just acknowledge shark tale as...a learning experience?

[@cindyespindola4946]

Nimona's behavior being influenced by Beetlejuice and Bugs Bunny it's amazing. I really love that movie!

[@officiallyenz]

Watching them flip the pages with hand drawn animation is so magical.

[@carlosnascimento9269]

Just watched Nimona and I'm honestly blown away. The animation, the art direction, the story, Chloe Grace Moretz's fantastic performance, it all comes together to create one of my favorite animated movies of the past decade. Brilliant.

[@EvolutionVR]

These videos are amazing. I love the details and background of your guests.

[@anidiotsguide757]

I'd never heard about Nimona, but DAMN, I want to see that movie now!

[@Satwr]

Its great! I haven't seen Spiderverse yet but of all the not Live Action movies it's the best I've seen in the last 2 maybe 3 years.

[@Aghul]

It's 100% worth the watch!

[@craigfergus9440]

Great episode, its been a while since you have needed to define a technique that hadn't been covered before and this one gave us 2 plus a nice dive on thinking about 3/4s

[@UCp6Q6LE7IYCO]

what an illustrious career! Ted is so humble!

[@Yesthatsmyfirstname]

I'm watching that movie tonight with my kids, this was so freaking cool to watch and see how passionate he was. Heck I'm half tempted to watch it now by myself and again with them later. Keep up the great work, all of you guys.

[@ForlornCreature]

Is there a childhood movie this guy didn’t work on? Amazing stuff

[@alexrayburn1891]

Taking another crack at recommending 1983s Fire and Ice!! Tons of really great shots, with some really smooth animations for the time! Totally underrated animated movie

[@TheRomansReact]

This series and this channel has been so much fun to follow. Now, off to Netflix!

[@anna_in_aotearoa3166]

6:30 Really appreciated the discussion about eye tracing! I feel like it's something I've been missing in the editing & action-blocking of many recent films (both live & animated), but just didn't have the vocabulary to explain what my problem was...? In this modern world of super, super fast intercut editing, I think well-planned eye tracking is more important than ever!! The problem of its absence becomes pretty clear when watching very fast-cut action films where fight sequences can just devolve into confused garble because one's eye can't follow what's going on...? A lot of music videos actually seem to do this WAY better than full-on movie productions do, which is interesting.

[@thereisa]

I could watch animators talking about their movies for HOURS ❤

[@D0S81]

never knew that about the plane section in Lilo n Stich. i also remember there was a part in GTA 3 that got cut where you fly a plane into a building, and then there was the thing where they removed the towers from the spiderman movie back then. its crazy how much stuff that affected not just irl but in media at the time. its also crazy how many things were coming out with bits about planes hitting buildings because of how fantastical and unrealistic something like that seemed at the time.

[@DoffnutProductions]

best animator's react ever. This guy is awesome, humble, and passionate.

[@Bloernsen]

I love you guys. Best channel on KZbin! (Sounds like one of those random bot(ish) posts, but I'm a real guy who loves what you do. Keep up the great work.)

[@Adamski-]

I'm actually going to watch Nimona because of this video.. I've gotten ads about it and seen it plastered on Netflix but it never really grabbed my attention that much.. But.. I'm actually going to watch it because the art style and animation were amazing in the shots you guys showed.

[@DarthRayj]

It's so worth it, easily one of my top 5 movies of the year. It's got a lot of humor without being dumb, a lot of important emotional moments without being heavy, it's really something I'd recommend to just about anyone. And the voice actors are all fantastic

[@willienelsongonzalez4609]

Fascinating episode with an incredibly informative, thoughtful and talented guest!

[@Bobywan75]

​@@asian_duck8208Weird that you think that after they just covered how many people worked on and how work intensive it was. It's a great movie but I guess you're going to miss out because of some random hang up you have about value. Sucks to be you.

Just watched Nimona based on this video's recommendation. WOW! What a beautiful movie! It had such a feeling of nostalgia just like all my childhood films and an absolutely stunning art style. Even the credit roll had little animations in it that showed just how much passion went into this project. You can really tell that every single person who helped create this film truly loves what they do and were proud to show it all off in Nimona! Thank you for introducing this beautiful work of art to me!

[@cpl.barbarusc4814]

I wouldn't mind be in an animation course with Ted as a teacher. Just imagine having a class with the guy that animated "The lion king" and "Lilo & Stitch", that would be something.

How have I never heard of Nimona before?!?! That movie looks great!

[@DarthRayj]

It is!! You've got to watch it :3

[@artulyanoff]

The cartoon is cool, except for the emphasis on homosexuality. History would not have suffered at all without this "agenda".

[@DarthRayj]

If by "emphasis" you mean, "the main character happens to be in a relationship and they kiss once" then I guess we have different meanings of the word. I've seen endless numbers of children's movies that are much more explicit and aggressive about pushing heterosexuality; it's often a major plot point even in Disney movies. @@artulyanoff

[@Hii621]

Sappy comment alert. One of the reasons I fell in love with art as a kid was because of Bambi on VHS. There was a behind the scenes special of them painting on glass frame by frame. It had a huge impact on me, and I always dreamed of being an animator at Disney. Now as an adult im not an animator, just a half baked artist. Seeing this video took me back to that moment of inspiration as a child. Thank you all for making this series. It truly makes an impact to see generations of artists work within the 2D and 3D realm, and put a face to some of the talent it takes to create these animated movies.

[@tfrowlett8752]

Never heard of Nimona before, now I really want to watch it and show it to everyone I know

You guys would pay wall Shrek. I love you guys. Still got your ear to the streets and know the internet heartbeat. Love this episode. Amazing as always. This Animator is just incredible. His breathe of work is unbelievable.

[@HeyLetsDoAThing]

I'd love to see you guys react to Princess and the Frog and Winnie The Pooh, the final two movies released by Disney's traditional 2D animation department before they shut it down. Along with the Tangled animated series, they are some of my favorites of all time and are often overlooked. Princess and the Frog even got blamed for the shutdown.
