I love how in reality Cranbersher was arguing with himself.

[@The_unknown555]

Blue Feather ikr 😂

[@Benamax]

That... was the best tutorial on anything EVER. Who knew comedy could be in tutorials?

[@xFRaCTuR3x]

+Benamax the big differences; Cran writes scripts, he shows complex examples of the lesson, he can predict dumb comments and play fun with them. He puts effort into his work, and as he has said in other comments about there more he could have done, puts out a concise tutorial too.

[@crategaming6094]

+xFractur3 i like how he literally said the video was funny and you come up with 3 lines XD

[@Eclipse5]

ITS CALLED INERTIA WHEN YOU STOP BUT KEEP MOVING!! INERTIAAA!!!!

[@Cranbersher]

I'M AWARE OF THIS FACT

[@nix7100]

+Cranbersher Guess you weren't, anyways MAKE ME SPIN!

[@minimidnight1080]

*from the Bill Nye intro* Inertia is a property of matter.

+Danielle Ender No need to yell Danielle. We hear you! :)

[@CDMudd]

+Danielle Ender Some animators call it "Overshoot and Settle" as well.

[@AliceMarkley]

"Or THIS for some reason!" I died. XD

[@lividsoda]

Same xD Didn't exactly help that I was in a furniture store at the time though.

[@Mow643]

me too SAME

How On Earth Did Cranbersher Make That Character Flip 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Hi

[@SWOOSHINE_THINGS]

[@MusicDecomposer]

So when are we gonna learn how to sync up words so we can go hebebubuh, heblebleybleyblooh, googabooboo, booboo?

[@MariaMaldonado-xh3lz]

JesseRoxll if you could calm down for a-

[@myrrhfortheroad]

@@MariaMaldonado-xh3lz How do you animate this? *arm wiggle* Or what about this? *hip dance* Or even THIS for some reason?! *freakin does a backflip*

[@ianimatethings7893]

0:38 OH MY GODDDDDDDDDD Some studio needs to freaking hire you already. Good Lord, that made me have artistic tingles all over. I've been out of animation inspiration for months and this is making me want to get back to it. Yes please.

[@sketchscribbles]

I Animate Things if

I have to admit. I watch this not because I want to do Stop Motion but because that guys is hilarious hahah. Most of tutorials are a little bit boring and I get frustrated. But this dude.... HE'S SO FUNNY :D

[@Cranbersher]

Glad you enjoyed! :D

[@CarrotzTeez]

+Cranbersher can u make a vanoss gaming stop motion that would make my day

[@RobinDieGast]

+SparkTheGamer i think that would be too hard for him. but i cant think for him

[@RobinDieGast]

SparkTheGamer thats true. but he has to animate a group of people. and you saw that already one puppet was hard. but it would be cool if he ever animated that to prove he's the god of animating

[@RobinDieGast]

yup!

[@StaticZenn]

I want you to shout at yourself again please

[@lividsoda]

Yes please.

[@m33zerella]

YES!

[@joyrollins8107]

+Gray Fullbuster Yes, please do Cran! It was funny :3

[@dwarf365]

+Gray Fullbuster It was so worth the extra week of animation for that random part :)

[@shan4364]

please.

[@misteronion9910]

How?!??!?!? HOW DID HE BACKFLIP DAMMIT

[@hotdog7818]

Science!

[@nickname9001]

but.. but it was a front flip. ._.

[@rudybetweenworlds3837]

Wow. Tinybersher is beyond feisty.

[@AskForDoodles]

I have a BA in Character Animation, and I must say, you've grasped the basics pretty intuitively and are teaching them well. Very talented ;) For reference, here are the professional terms: Speed Up/Slow Down = Ease In/Ease Out Drag= Follow-through Wiggle = is here a combination of Overshoot + Stagger I swear, my entire 1st year was nothing but BALLS, FLOURSACKS AND SEAWEED excercies xD

[@bythewayisay]

This was a fantastic guide for beginners! I loved when your puppet self came in. xD I wish I had these tips when I first started doing animation! : )

[@osupeplayz8853]

You are my favorite channel

[@TheEmberosis]

Martha, I'm spooked.

[@KPopParadise2015]

your narration reminda me so much of cry, its great xD

[@SugaGenius93]

Hoseoks Butt ikr

[@_ebcrochet]

i like how when the tiny cran gets upset, you can see the lighting on the wall in the background change, shows how long it took him to do that one part... awesome!

[@markiplierSINGSbadly]

Also kudos for basically teaching kinematics :)

[@bye6-98]

"shimmy sham" YEASSSSS I thought of jack😂

[@craighein5409]

That was the best voice acting I've seen in ages. Thank-you for blessing us with that amazing angry version of yourself.

[@crownclowncreations]

For all the aspiring animators out there! The technique you use for movement to make it more believable is called "slow ins and slow outs". It could still be the same amount of frames but the timing is different. Also the "drag" is actually three different stages called "follow through", "overlapping action", and _then_ "drag" (there's lots of easy to understand tutorials on all this, if what I said didn't make sense).

[@superdakotagames7748]

"Or stiffer...heh" I am dying😂😂😂😂😂

[@Parrotlad]

"A lil shimmy sham" is my favorite line in any film.

[@bryanthesir9961]

That last little bit where you showed how the basics connect to more complex animation was really clever. Most Tutorials don't show that direct connection. Great job Cranbersher!

[@markiplierSINGSbadly]

THAT MUST HAVE TAKEN SO LONG LET ME SEND YOU SMORES FOR REAL FINALLY

[@that.bluecat]

Cran Man would be an awesome father. He handled the situation with the unruly puppet very well. Good job Cran.

[@CharlieFillmore]

Puppet Cran is so cuteeee~~~

[@VelvetyAverage]

0:38 was my exact reaction when I first learned 2D animation back in high school, hehe Really enjoying these tutorials and seeing how all the magic comes together ^-^

[@ashleyhasbargen6750]

Ah the dreaded walk cycle. The Bain of every animators existence but a crucial part to the learning process.

[@schleepy6362]

Your little puppet character (dunno what else to call him) is the cutest dang thing I've ever seen :D

[@jfishxx]

I never plan on attempting to use stop motion animation, but it's interesting to learn more about your process through these videos!

[@Lisuje16]

And all of the greatness was made that day....

[@MizzParanormal]

"Or this for some reason" killed me, it's awesome how even 'teaching' you can incorporate so much humor, love your work, keep it coming!

[@jesseturay1421]

This takes some serious patience. You're very talented!!! Love it! :)

[@sadcena7204]

I've known about your channel for awhile now and you never cease to impress me. Me, being animator, can understand how frustrating animation can be. But your tutorials and explanations make things so much more understandable in a easier and fun way. I always wanted to try stop motion, and i started an animation too. I used some of your tips ( not alot of them though because it was a class project and i had to do it with a partner who was less experienced than i was) it turned out ok. Thanks to your help i got an -A. later i thought more people should know about stop motion and how fun it can be so, showed this series to the animation teacher at my school and he instantly loved it! He now shows your videos for examples to the students in his class. Thanks so much for the tutorials! You're one of the best animators out there and i can't wait to see more from you!

[@Blaidd8]

the argument with puppet Cran... reminded me of the Lego movie... LOVE IT!!1!

[@Elchansan]

You said before that you learned animation on your own, right? Being able to teach this in-depth is just so awesome.

[@shiveringstencil3662]

Martha, I'm spooked!

[@deezarpie7764]

if there ever was an award for best youtube video...it would be this one.i am totally amazed.

[@sansskeleton4284]

Never before has a tutorial been this humerous.

[@discordedrf4885]

you still got to touch it Jeremy!

[@CloyoKingdom]

Puppet Cranbersher is just so adorable! (Don't worry, you're adorable too, Human Cranbersher!)

[@literallyafishhook]

1:08 he is style he is grace he is balancing himself on his face

[@not_4177]

0.25x in speed you can really see it

[@skitzeefairy4593]

I love it! Please don't ever conform to anyone's preferences, specifications or demands and stay true to yourself. I love you and your defiance. Squeak for happiness! SQUEAK!!!

[@JosePerez-bx2ou]

I miss this series man! Bring it back when you can please. Take your time though bro. I know you got your hands full judging by what I've seen on your streams

[@memyselfiamweird]

I cannot really express how much I loved this.. especially the little angry segment. I'd like to think we have more patience than that ;P But point made! Looking forward to next month :3

[@vonnahcool2642]

Little Cran made me laugh really really hard! He was very angry about the ball thing, lol. Amazing video, loved it so much!

[@pennyaldente]

You're an amazing creator, artist, editor, animator AND teacher, man! I'm about to show this video to all of my friends 'cause I'm obsessed with it. You're making me want to try out new stuff.

[@Laviddd]

Never realized how key utilizing momentum/ inertia were to the animation process. Thanks *BUD*'!

[@LindsayK3152]

The short clips and pics make sense now! Amazing job on making another educational, yet incredibly entertaining video. :D It's hard to find people who make me genuinely laugh and smile these days so thank you for continuing to create for all of us! Can't wait for next week :3

[@quadreye]

My god, Cran, the effort you give to this is simply amazing XD Nice one as always, and it's even better and funnier than before!

[@miguelangelvazquezroque3791]

Right when i was about to leave a comment asking for some tips to do lip syncing, tiny plushy Cranbersher apears and starts yelling xD

[@aingeav497]

I can't wait for the lip sync video. I've always wondered how people do that, and now I'm anxious, thanks Cran

[@Yue_mariin00]

I really,really,really just want to hug Cranby senpai And squish the cuteness out of him,he's adorable

[@ladyhawker3430]

This was absolutely perfect. I really enjoyed watching it with my husband, we couldn't stop laughing when you came in to talk about the ball. Thank you for posting such awesome videos, and we're glad you're continuing the Guide series. :)

[@number1morbiusfan]

The tutorial videos are always so cute and funny. I adore them.

[@deleijon3415]

OMG your walk-cycle is really better than before x3

[@Iwantpizza1234]

How did he do a flip if he's screwed on the table?

[@sweetest-sweater]

i think his (the puppet's) feet stayed screwed to the table and it was just his top portion flipped down for the most part, and then the parts where his feet were off the table were just done through cran balancing the puppet on his head in clever positions? i imagine you would be able to balance it considering all of the dense clay in the head and the cushiony yarn hair

[@beebomb]

ONE OF MY BEST ANIMATION TUTORS EVER SENPAI YOU DA BOMB

[@DoomdayProphet]

Oh shite, angry Cran is really really super scary.

[@ScottkLeslieActor]

So glad to see another episode of the guide, Loved it! I already told you before, but its so great to see you back Cran, looking forward to your next video!

[@ApolloOjales]

I don't even watch this because I want to learn stop motion, I watch because they're so freaking funny! I love these videos!

[@MrKorthos]

I once asked my physics teacher "when will we EVER use this?!" cranbersher has given me an example.

[@sirmeerkat3690]

I want to animate THAT for a reason! No, seriously, I love your work Cranbersher, I even bought the stuff to try but gosh, that takes years of practice! Amazing work! Can't wait to see the next ones!

[@mariamatilda9017]

And now I love this channel.

[@tariqkomlosy5962]

This was fantastic; best of all was the little argument you had with yourself. I absolutely loved it and wait in eager anticipation for the next tutorial video.

[@maddiecolbear1429]

The beginning was adorable! I loved it!

[@RainKaia]

Oooooo... mini Cranbersher is so ADORABLE :D Also, yeeeey!! A new guide! That's actually really interesting... and a very funny way to explain it. Props to you Oliver, props to you :)

[@Fierycascade]

"Martha, I'm spooked..."

[@kinzie5541]

Hey Cran this was amazing! It looked like the editing took a long time so good job!

[@kytiit0o]

i love the part where Cranbersher was arguing with Cranbersher. Also guys Cran here explained *slow in and slow out* really well!! I suggest you guys go look at the 12 principles of animation if you are watching the tutorials to learn animation yourselves :- D

[@vanthursday]

Dammit your voice is creeping me out.. I keep thinking of Cry

[@crownclowncreations]

I know this video is old, but I seriously thought this dude would have over 1 mil subs by now. How- _HOW_ can he only be at 130k??? Animation is _hard,_ stop motion is *_HARD!_* And he's so good at it! And he's self taught! Plus he's actually really funny too. _What the actual heck!?_

[@clay4trey]

0:58 Oh... So that's the scene from your video on Extrabersher... Huh.

[@NatieGreen]

yeah, when I saw that part here, I had to pause the video to continue singing "face huh

[@clenchface4633]

Oh I saw that extrabersher thing

[@embvrry]

+Branden Bell face huh what about the eyes and the mouth?

[@mendfri]

it sounds so weird hearing it without the loop

[@astraeaflorence]

EndMendFriend [endermender110] ikr?

[@burrito345]

ah. you're the be(a)st oliver! i reeeally enjoy watching these guides tho i'm not an animator. there's just something pleasing and entertaining about your work and all the effort you put into these videos. great job buddy! proud of ya.

[@cecily6733]

Why are all your videos so beautiful?!

[@lienna28]

A great guide, and I love your sense of humor! Spot on.

[@SMBShippuden4]

Your Guides are super helpful ! I'm seriously looking forward to the full character animations basic movements guide because that's something I'd like to learn more about.

[@MisterCake]

This actually makes me want to buy equipment and start animating!! I'm highly going to go through these tutorials to make my own stop motion one day. All thanks to You Cranbersher!

[@dexterously3501]

This has been both very educational and very entertaining at the same time. You sir, are amazing! I love how you put humor into your tutorials to keep it from being stale like most tutorials I've seen. I enjoy your videos very much, and I look forward to seeing more! Keep it up, dude!

[@danielsmock6272]

cranblerflevbernesher (yes i will always address you like this like last year) i love your videos man their very inspiring u might not be the best animator but i still respect the time and effort u put into these animations thanks for an amazing start of the year cran cran! :D

[@Crewit]

Came to brush up on some stop motion basics for work and wow dude great video! You're super entertaining, keep up the awesome work!

[@Uzidude265]

0:58 "what about the eyes and the mouth" quote by pupper

[@belakitu8331]

I think watching the video in .5 also kinda helps see the little bits, at least when little Cranberry is animatin, plus it sounds funny like yer drunk :3

[@hiyometo9738]

i giggle every time i go frame by frame when he does a the front flip the postions are so funny!

[@Houston_Smh]

Dude I love your commentary!!!! You keep things interesting and funny.

[@BioBun]

I'm not even into animating, but I just had to keep watching. This is so good! Now I want to animate something ...!

[@theourista438]

I'm glad that you got inspired to animate :)

[@evelinepieternella8088]

These tutorials are so amazing! they're really fun to watch!

[@Apexx27]

and the arguing with the puppet of yourself was genius :')

[@madsunic6376]

When your doll self was yelling at you i just looked at the right of the screen to see what was the changes.

[@LilyN2099]

I love lil cran, he's so cute!

[@Symo_Art]

Just watched this at 0.25 speed to see all of the frames at the start... I'm now having a laughing fit XD

[@martakulaszewicz6809]

This is my favourite guide video so far and im happy i saw my name in it too :)

[@MM-bw1lo]

This is one of the best breaking down of timing I've ever seen, thanks so much! U rock! subscribed!

[@PokeCat__]

I love these videos, because I learn something new, and they're very entertaining! Keep doing what you do man, I love it!

[@peepo9008]

+Cranbersher you arguing with yourself was hilarious!

[@wajihbec1087]

i didn't think a guide would be that entertaining.

[@madisonshaw6922]

I am so happy you're back!

[@22Tesla]

Ah, the illusion of life. I'm taking an animation class in school and there is a video that refers to the 12 steps of animation, so some of this I really understand. I can't wait to see how you animate a walk cycle since I've seen that you basically screw the characters feet into the ground so... yeah. But I digress. A great video guide, I've certainly got to try it out sooner or later.

[@embvrry]

If you watch puppet cranbersher at 0.25 you can begin to see the frames of the pictures that he took AND he sounds extremely hammered XD

[@bloodhunter258]

I freakin' love your guide videos man. Your comedy and editing is on point. I'm not even going into stop motion animation by watching this either lol Keep up the great work! :D - Some stranger who stumbled accidentally into this part of youtube

[@MynicknameisViolet]

well now this video is even cooler now that i know how long that animation of cran took
