This is wild, when I saw this movie I thought it was 3D styled to look 2D, that’s how smooth it is. Absolutely masterful

[@candyman650]

but how do they get from the pencil drawing to such a clean image?

[@TotorotheTraveller]

Blind Bag Show very interesting!

[@Aaron-un4jo]

Candyman its called inking my freind

[@katsura3875]

Ask almost all animators

[@kentadran]

We have technologies today so yeah

[@applepretz5368]

​@@JoshuaSandoval-ht7lh It seems like Japanese animators clean their frames with pencil.

[@yashulgautamsharma]

Damn the movement is almost like real, as if he did rotoscopy! Brilliant!

[@leespiderpod]

I wish this was longer

[@MicahBuzanANIMATION]

So inspiring to see some of the behind the scenes. Makes me want to try harder at my own animation.

I'm a simple person i see ghilbi, i click.

[@kariharry6501]

No way that isn't rotoscoped

Whats the name auto buffer it to me miyazaki ip aid

[@frontendprodesigner4299]

so you draw frame by frame. 25 frame = 1 second then you draw 25 days for one frame. let's do some math. if the studio has 25 artists to draw each one frame per day then 25 artist each draw 1 frame paper per day which equates to 25frames per day. then 25frame/day = 1 minute/day, so that 60days*1minute = 1 hour. it will take 2 months to 25 artists to complete 1hour of the movies.

[@juantsu2000]

That's not how it works. Firstly, they don't actually do 24 individual drawings a second. They repeat the drawing for 1 extra frame so they actually draw 12 frames a second

[@carriemillar6277]

Cristóbal Duchén they actually don’t even do that, they draw on 3s

[@juantsu2000]

@@carriemillar6277 I thought that depended on the sequence. Like, sometimes they draw on 1's and sometimes on 3s

[@carriemillar6277]

Cristóbal Duchén actually I looked it up and even for more intense sequences they usually draw on threes, just rearranging the pacing a little

Wrong title 😅

[@blueboredom]

When I see this comment, then look at the title of the video and realise what the channel's name is. It makes me chuckle.
