BIGTOP BURGER: Behind The Makeup (

[@Dovendraw]

Who is your favorite BIGTOP BURGER character? 🤔

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

I'll pick them all!

[@thepackingpacjack7767]

STEEEVE!

[@hannahkip7851]

Cesare

[@tomsmith_429]

Tim

[@pedmonds2011]

Steve

[@TheKiroshi]

i had NO idea that Bigtop Burger was mostly 3D.. Looking at some of those dynamic shots, i thought it was 90% 2D and some shots in 3D for ease

[@sboinkthelegday3892]

Unlike South Park Snow Day

[@arcangel737]

yeah that kinda blew my mind as well it makes sense that would be a lot of redrawing every frame for one guy-- but I think it makes for a more cohesive style- and makes it really possible for one person to do most of the animation

[@squirrelypop_]

WorthiKids has such a unique style. It's so easy to differentiate their works.

[@l4dfanatic11]

both in art style and their voiceacting, idk what it is with the VA but its just really got its own feel to it...genuine in a way?

[@squirrelypop_]

@@l4dfanatic11 Yes! and their music as well. Idk what it is, but they do it soooo well, especially for Friends in Low places. It's just such a unique feel!

[@thepackingpacjack7767]

Steve’s Backstory is so tragic “On Broadway yet again”

[@thegnarledpirate9198]

If I had a penny for every talented musician/storyteller that came out from the Homestuck fandom I would have a lot of pennies, but two I cherish in particular.

[@bisma1352]

who is the other one?

[@bug7461]

Is the other guy Toby fox

[@Qaiou]

i always assume anyone who is into art would have heard of homestuck

[@crazyflame6752]

Its a crime Worthikids content highly underrated his art style is fresh and full of life, and his music is nothing but bangers

[@Shoobster]

I don't think Worthikids is very underrated, the guy gets like a million views on every video and has a pretty sizable patreon. following.

[@beebs4283]

He’s very well recognized at this point. His videos have quite large view counts, he’s talked about a lot, and he’s even done work for Adult Swim. It’s been very satisfying seeing him get the recognition he deserves.

[@bluekaneko]

I think he's niche at best? ...

[@catmaniac8x]

"Go draw your OCs, show them to the world, and do what you love. And an audience should be there to support you along the way" This right here. That's my MO with my content. Just making things that feel interesting for the time being, and just throwing my OCs into things for kicks. I was never into it for an audience, but having people who follow me is still pretty cool.

[@Mimny]

I really love BTB, it became one of my inspirations for my own art! But what I love the most is that it went from "Haha so random lol!" to "FULL LORE EXPERIENCE" SUPER QUICKLY, I really love when series do that! (Also BTB is the only show that gives CATS a good reputation, think about it)

[@lisahoshowsky4251]

Yes it going from random chaos to like, holy heck lore has been so satisfying! It was already amazing but then it became incredible!

[@Goatythemeow]

hyped for season 3 for this very reason

[@alexhead2645]

back on Broadway again…

[@SeaHay]

I love how the music for the show hinted at the lore without giving it away. If you looked into the lyrics when the songs came out on his other channel it gave the impression that something may happen soon but not explicitly what. Even without the Bigtop Burger lore behind it, the songs still stand stong on their own lyrics-wise, so it wasn't nessasarily going to be about something in the show. It was really cool to expierence that side of things.

[@Goatythemeow]

as a blender user myself, worthikids has been a HUGE inspiration to me. i had never seen anyone use its 2d and 3d tool together in the way he does, and it looks just like a 2D animation. truly amazing what this guy has done all by himself

[@MissMisnomer_]

I love whipping out Worthikids to anyone new I meet who has even the slightest interest in indie animation/comedic art, because he is so SO funny and also his music is full of certified bangers. Also I have never seen anyone use Blender is quite the same way. A real inspiration!

[@CryptidMilky]

BTB is a sweet comfort show and lowkey honored to say that I've been a fan for a minute now. I love worthikids and the story they're telling, as well as the music.

[@nicholasmorgan7609]

Oh he was a homestuck fan. Didn't see that coming.

[@joshuaraymer1705]

It's the clown powers

[@a-bird-lover]

homestucks are behind everything

[@gristen]

i always suspected as much but wasnt entirely sure til now. his humor and artistic sensibilities are extremely homestuck in nature. plus only a homestuck would be that obsessed with clowns

[@maxturnersvideos]

As a long time subscriber who found you through your TomSka video, I'm glad to see you move from drama to covering good independent animation.

[@LendriMujina]

I'm glad Worthi seems to be getting a lot more attention lately. Season 2 wrapping up seems to have made quite a buzz around.

[@hehehorf782]

Every time I remember Worthikids exists, I go to watch just a couple of his shorts and end up watching through his entire channel again. Its just good quality laughs that wont get tired after the first time you see it, and bite sized enough you could go for another... and another... and another... I love his stuff, and I can't wait to see where Big Top Burger goes. My favorite of his might have to be Captain Yajima though, it just feels so legit and fleshed out! It feels like you could've dug it up out of a box in your attic and decided to give it a watch for old times sake, but its completely new and you've never seen it before. The video for "Dried Up Old Bones" is also addictive. Best possible accompanying animation for the vibes of that song.

[@atomykebonpyre]

Was anyone going to tell me Worthikids was a *HOMESTUCK* or was I just supposed to find that out on my own?

[@zoev128]

"First voiced animation was Homestuck based" Ahhh, this explains the eight month Hiatus.

[@MostlyPennyCat]

After watching all of it (for the first time) recently, all his output, not just big top. Two things really did the jaw drop. The story conveyed entirely through facial expressions in Wire, especially "the plan" where they capture a vamp, "execute" him by no-parachute. The pressure and relief displayed on the "Leader"'s face is... 😙🤌 Second is the absolutely bananas quality of the CG in Yajima. Like, you lot that in front of ANYONE and they will say plasticine stop motion. Except it's in blender. That is brain bending

[@MostlyPennyCat]

Hurray my comments are no longer being deleted!

[@Purpie_Slurpie]

back on broadway yet again.. I fucking love worthikids he's so talented

[@DIASTCartoons]

I've heard of this series from an ex-friend who cosplayed as Billie at a comic con. I started watching it a few months back. Big Top Burger is a funny show. The last part of this video regarding just creating is inspiring me to make more animations. I burned out last year and started working on comics instead.

[@myhandsaslanguage]

Seeing animation like Worthikids that still values 2D while finding ways to streamline production makes me happy. I love 3D, but I grew up watching 2D. I love the style and look of it, and I want to continue to see it in media.

[@cpt_micky]

This has unironically convinced me to start doing a comic that ive had in my head

[@WhosDnisify]

Man i love Worthikids. Through the music video to BOOGIE i found back to brockhampton. Big Top Burger has been a big thing too and of course all the videos are great. Man I laughed my ass off when I saw the Palpatine bit.

[@matthewgagnon9426]

Captain Yajima is easily my favorite thing Worthikids has ever done, though Bigtop Burger is also absolutely excellent.

[@chellastation]

WorthiKid treats BigTop Burger like it was his child. That is what I want to do with my projects. My projects are my kids, and no one gets to hurt them 🎨

[@lukechase6346]

Witches on tinder is one of my favorite KZbin animations of all time

[@MiuKujo]

For those of you trawling through New, it's also worth mentioning that even a good mic is optional to start. Chris Fleming as Chesare peaking his mic every other sentence is a hilarious gag. If there is a flaw and you lean into it just right, now it's a bit.

[@dabois8280]

I think an example of an indie animation series getting too big and falling apart is confinement. Once he started to make bigger episodes with more people working on them it took ages to make them and eventually the other people influenced his work to the point that I don't think it was his by the end

[@EBThisThat]

As someone who wants to animate and do stop motion herself, I find Worthikids inspirational. Plus you can definitely see the influences and the love, care and passion he packs into his work. I've loved his style as well, Michael Cusaks' Smiling Friends, OddOne'sOut, My Pride, Tamberlaine, Lackadaisy, Monkey Wrench and a few others that slip my mind at the moment. Another artist I enjoy is Andymation. He was the first animator I became a fan of, plus like Steve, his 'how tos' are very informative, practical and useful.

[@valentinebabeVA]

hell yea, great video as always

[@mollietenpenny4093]

I was homeschooled too! When I first saw Bigtop Burger for the first time the style and humor reminded me of a guy from my homeschool group who was obsessed with music and film making.

[@Bobdd0]

Thanks for the dive! This was a great look into the creation! I love in particular how this music tells the story *right along side* the animation in amazing ways!

[@lebendigesgespenst7669]

I am convinced that this has to be the most talented animator on this platform. Pretty much everything this guy makes is so well done, it’s baffling Edit: oh yeah, that’s not even mentioning his music, lol

[@MouseTheGoblin]

I love how this came out RIGHT as I got back into Worthikids!

[@nicholasadams81]

First off: Incredible deep-dive on Worthikids! The presentation of this video is remarkable. Every bit of relevant info in a single, concise, easy-to-digest video (Fuck off, Zomburger marketing lol). Secondly: " *DON'T LET IT WIN* " has to be the best delivery of a line/joke in the entire show.

[@ghostdagreat]

Ive been waitinggg for a video like this! His blender animation fascinated me

[@StudioHannah]

It's ChE-sah-ray. ChEEEEEE-sah-ray.

[@ShatteredAutomaton]

Btw in case you didn't know Bigtop Burger s2 is live!

[@93Hiroko]

Homeschooled - * explains a lot* oh man I would know what hours alone as a creative kid means. I love the unique humor and creative energy

[@bigrandy100]

i love bigtop burger with my entire heart and soul it's amazing 😭😭 worthi has such a unique and amazing style. i just adore how his animations remind me of the old christmas stop motion movies i watched since i was a child

[@skullisbones]

worthikids is one of my favorite animators on here, and bigtop burger is legitimately the best animated web show i've seen

[@porciwall9261]

I find his art so beautiful, it's just how i see it, but it looks so amazing,

[@Emiliaiaiaaa]

Worthikids has to be one of my biggest inspos for animation!! TAWOG, worthikids and (oh erm gee I forgot the animation anyways the animation is very expressive and lively.) They all inspired me to pursue my dream animation style which is very very weird and takes a lot of time

[@fangsofthefenrir0027]

There is so much charm in this mans work I cant wait to see what he'll do next.

[@EngineTheRobot]

bro you gotta fucking WARN me before showing Sanjibob Squarepiece like that holy SHIT that goes hard

[@mamadev7687]

oh fuck yeah i remember loving that mbmbam animated video as a kid

[@grinningtiki220]

I don't know how I got here. I smoked this jule and its doing unspeakable things to my mind and body.

[@Akoyabones]

It's a little encouraging to know that he and I complete almost the same amount of formal schooling. (Although I only took drawing 1 and 3d space or whatever it was called) He does however have tons more practical experience than I.

[@Spacebun236]

“Steeeeeeeeeve. Steeeeeeeeeeeve. I brought you a gift!” Ad: Hatchimals alive!

[@MostlyPennyCat]

4:24 i love apologies that start with "I REGRET NOTHING" Just feel that sincerity! 😂

[@Ibrainwashedyou]

This is a wonderful video Daftpina

[@cecil6075]

"worthikids kanaya fanart" isnt something i thought i'd see today, but thank god i did.

[@mugiwaerouma]

My friend JUST showed me BTB, and I was immediately... smitten by the art style lol

[@gendygoblin8391]

You forgot to mention Alex Small-Butera as Conrad.

[@sarexvicentina]

hey this was super inspiring and i really thank you for this video. i have to say, my favorite video he ever made is captain yajima, i constantly think abt it... iconic

[@SonofEmhak]

Wait a second UAA, Worthikids went to my local college? And they were inspired by Nutcracker Fantasy? I discovered that film two years ago when DiscoTek aired it on their Twitch stream. Small world.

[@TV-8-301]

Wish very much I could work for Worthikids. He could probably really use some employees to speed up his workflow

[@kevinkempt]

i love bigtop burger so much

[@MitchieDBBC]

Worthitkids is such a great artist. I love listening to his music and watching his animations. If I could suggest someone who I love listening to and watching, Shane Curry or Chewgum has some great stuff too

[@accordingtosophia]

As someone who loves German Expressionist silent films, the "Bigtop Burger" to "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" pipeline is the funniest thing I've ever witnessed among fans. I've seen people really obsessed with this modern web show, find out that the Zomburger crew is based on characters from a 103-year-old movie, and then get obsessed with a completely different piece of media from over a century ago.

[@Cera.stalker]

this is genuinely what happened to me, i went from being a nerd about one cesare to another XD

[@lucdoodle]

Amazing video! It was extremely interesting thank you for making it !!

[@DISTurbedwaffle918]

Love this guy's stuff so much fr fr Genuinely something above par in animation.

[@o.ruoroch9869]

Worthikids is one of the greatest independent artists today. Love his style, music and writing!

[@TheQuyman]

Seven watch this chapter out six years and never once did I realize there was an eye in worthikids

[@kingdomcoomies518]

Worthi been my fav since that lil short music video clip he did for “Willie Willie” or whatever that songs called lol his style is just too good I can’t get enough

[@agentjawbreaker]

absolutely thrilled to know homestuck is in his heart too

[@UnusedOldAccount123]

Nice video! For what it’s worth, it’s pronounced Mackleroy brother not Mic Elroy if that makes since? Worthikids stuff is so unique and I’m honestly glad I found someone who seems to like Mad Monster Party? As much as I do ^u^

[@LifesNeverHumDrum]

Captain Yajima is a masterpiece

[@rustyshackelford312]

I say "everything's fine. Don't phone the fire department" almost everyday.

[@PotatoIsNotCute]

Yoooo Worthikids lived in Alaska too??? I love this man even more

[@TheArcSet]

Thanks for this. Very inspirational.

[@Ethereally13]

Worhikids is one of those people who are so talented that they make you feel bad and behind, no matter your age.

[@cjsdizzy]

Most innovative and stylish artist out there 🤘 awesome video

[@TheWheatless]

His talent and hard work shine through in everything he does. Top notch guy.

[@popon013]

WorthiKids deserves the success

[@1000Tomatoes]

I didn't even recognize it was all in 3d, I thought it was just specific moments.

[@Matthias129]

Damn you youtube!!! I've been waiting 9 months for the next episode, and instead of notifying me that it's out, you give me a recommendation for a video that *talks* about it almost three weeks after it came out? Not to mention that you recommend said video over a week after *it's* been out?! Sorry DaftPina, your video has been amazing but I've gotta go binge the latest episode about 8 times in a row, and then I'll be back to finish this video (and definitely watch some others)!

[@RiffZifnab]

How did you not talk about Wire? It's so good. j/k I'm here for any worthikids content, they're the best (:

[@kin768]

I'd love to have @WorthiKids put out a video of his own that goes through what he sees as his journey to get where he is. Would also just love to have him help me figure out my own style of animation

[@mrbeep8096]

How in the hell did I not recognized Sung Won Cho as the doctor? I watch his content as well. Hell he even used the same voice in many of his videos.

[@Lj_Redd]

my favorite series gets some love yippie!

[@atlascove1810]

bruh it's chay-ser-ay, you can hear it said in the cartoon.

[@ClamSham]

I LOVE WORTHIKIDS!

[@Pillowcase]

Love the bts on bigtop burger... What a masterpiece

[@OwensanTowafaSMM]

Can you please do a video about the OSC (Object Show Community)? I've been in this community since c. 2013-2015 and I, and of course, all the other members of the OSC, would truly appreciate it if you do.

[@zafoool]

8:30 ceaser? i thought it was ceh sar ay

[@sheckmeister]

Hopefully this inspired cartoon can continue to stay on the (big)top

[@schmee9025]

anyone remember the spongebob animations

[@FexiSponge]

This whole time I thought it was worthitkids, after all these years

[@alexanderdinkov8002]

Why didn't you mention the video "Worthikids - Wire" It's an amazing animation.

[@AnimatedAutisim]

HOMESTUCK?!?!?!? I DIDNT EXPECT HOMESTUCK AT ALLL AHHHH I CAN NEVER ESCAPE IT

[@thecrematedkitten8810]

Great video, thorough research. You seem to vary your tone formulaically however, like a news caster, which can lose audience attention on longer pieces of media. If you're interested in working on varying your intonation more I think it'd really add to your videos. Keep up the great work! ❤

[@anominon]

"CHEZARAY"

[@CirqueDuSomni]

How are people so cool and make such great things gigachads all of you
