Im a beginner animator and this video made so much sense to me, i am now understanding how t make moves not so floaty. My main issue seems to be the speed of animation. i am making an animation now that is 60fps (final render). In Blender when i preview it, it looks slower than the final rendered animation. My 60fps animation is really fast and i have to slow it down in post production. Animation is a lot of fun but time consuming to get good at- i still have much to learn.

Interesting that you mention that your friend works in a way where he finds that refineing the floatiness works for him, I work in a similar fashion and thought that doing such a thing was very bad. However you've talt be theres different methods and as long as the floatiness gets eliminated it can work 😄

Hallo Finn, für mich war die Filmakademie das Beste, was mir passieren konnte. Es ist weniger theoretisch als an anderen Unis. Besonders die letzten Jahre, weil man dann vor allem Projekte macht. Dieses wieder und wieder ins kalte Wasser springen und mit immer anderen Leuten irgendwie zu versuchen einen Film zum laufen zu bringen, ist eine sehr harte, intuitive Art des Lernens. Auch wenn wir sehr oft tolle Workshops und Vorträge mit ganz besonderen Dozenten hatten (Ed Hooks, Terrence Masson), vieles muss man sich selbst beibringen oder von Mitstudenten lernen. Das erfordert große Disziplin! Es gibt Leute, die mögen das gar nicht und hätten gerne klassischen, systematisch Dauerunterricht (Gobelins in Frankreich machen das). Am Besten informierst du dich wann der Tag der offene Tür ist und sprichst vor Ort mal mit Dozenten und Studenten (zeig auch ruhig dein Portfolio). Und vergiss nicht das Pflichtpraktikum! Ich hoffe, du findest die Uni, die dir auf deinem Weg das meiste bringt :D -Ferdinand

The one issue with this video is that, it tells but does not show. Not sure if you just dont have access to the necessary tools I.E. Maya, Toon Boom, etc. but in an instructional video about animation there needs to be some samples of animation. Beyon that what is being said its perfectly fine.

yeah but to avoid floaty animation how much frames would you put it because if you put it to minimum its gonna look like its teleporting :/
@AnimatorIsland
@AnimatorIsland 5 жыл бұрын
The floaty impression doesn't come from more or less frames. You can have long and slow motions with many frames, but it's important that they have purpose and fit to the size of the object or character. Big things move slower, smaller things move a lot faster. A common animation mistake is to have a character wobble back and forth with his whole body arms moving up and down to create the illusion of breathing. But the breathing happens almost only through the chest. The pose is also really important. If the upper arm is lifted for too long or without purpose it looks like there is water there lifting the arm up.

@AnimatorIsland
@AnimatorIsland 5 жыл бұрын
Many of my viewers have actually improved their animation using my advice in this video. Just changing your mindset to more purposeful motions can reduce floating a lot and it's difficult to give before and after examples for that as they require a completely new animation. But the real reason why there are no examples: It would have delayed this video even more. Yes, I want to make a new version some day with examples, but I would animate them myself or for third-party content get permission for every single one as I don't want people to feel exposed. I am already afraid enough on stepping on people's toes with the 11SecondClub critiquing. In those live streams you can see a lot of examples and while there is no fixed version shown, I give lots of tips and draw over notes.

@AnimatorIsland
@AnimatorIsland 6 жыл бұрын
Not sure how far you watched, but I demonstrate a lot of things acting them out in live action. I would like to do more animated examples, but unfortunately they are very time intensive to create. We might have an exploration of the 51 animation exercises with examples though... We will see :) I politely disagree that talking about motion isn't helpful. Many interviews with great masters (you can find some on this channel) don't have animated examples and yet there is so much you can learn from listening to them... or reading about it. The Illusion of Life is mostly text, but it's full of very helpful insights.
