How Long Does It Take to Make a 3D Animation

[@wilismatrix9847]

yeah,, a client, couple weeks ,, ask me to make 3 video with like pixar scene in 10 days ,and each video have arround 25s plus creating the environement and all..lol .. I told him you should go and ask pixar or dreamworks to make it in 10 days with a team of 100 person

[@junechevalier]

I feel you, I need to make 15 characters and 45 costumes in a month, from scratch, to texturing, to hair grooming. Realistic style. By myself. And then also write the stories for each character, design the logos, and the lore of the universe. Not to mention rendering thousands of frames in 4k with my wee laptop. All in about 1 month

@@educate3d lol, 'revenge of the animator '. It's not like the client would even notice.

[@TakiGamesOfficial]

I’ve tried to follow some tutorials on 3D animation since there’s some specific combat animations I want for my game that aren’t being sold in the UE Marketplace. It all seems extremely time consuming especially with all the key frames you have to do. The easier way out is probably mocap but there are stylized animations that you just cannot capture with natural movement. Props to all the animators and artists out there, the work process requires a lot of patience.

[@larenzgarrett4936]

mocap mixed with key framing. use the mocap for a solid base then start keying

[@jinron24]

You could take the information and break it down to say a 5 minute animated piece, animation music and dialog! Most people outside the business have no idea how much time and money it takes to put a finished product out. Short story I was working on a short 30 second animated insert for a movie, so the director was hovering over giving suggestions on color shape pacing and so on, I finally snapped and ask him how long would it take to do this live or stop motioned or traditionally animated. He clapped back and said it should take no time since it's on the computer!

[@lyon3d68]

Saame) how is your progress though?

[@Reaxxcartoons]

I’m switching from 2D animation to 3D, I must say 3D animation is much easier A 10 minute animation with not much details would take me 7 weeks to complete in 2D, while in 3D it took me 3 weeks I glad 3D animation has become readily available to us

[@calebcostrini]

Really, only three weeks?

[@WieldMyWord]

Don't underestimate it, to some degree I would say 2d is faster depending on what you are doing. A professional use about a week to make a full complete model with ready rigging and thats not even touching animation or the rendering process, etc. Much of the 3d pipeline doesn't exist in 2D which normally you have a team of people filling those specialized areas, and if you are alone doing it its gonna take tremendous time unless you want the quality to suffer.

[@Reaxxcartoons]

@@WieldMyWord fair enough, tbh it really depends what you are doing really , some type of animation 2D would be faster and others not, the advantages 3D have is once things are all modelled and rigged , making Episode 2 would almost half the workload than the first time since you’re just re using assets

[@wolf1733]

what about rendering how much time does it take

[@Reaxxcartoons]

@@wolf1733 I render when I go to bed so all together is like 160 hours of render time

[@carbonanimationproductions6537]

i love this channel

[@Nekotico]

as an animator, i figured out that the problem between 2d and 3d its....3d animation by standart its defined to be over exagerated on every movemente...why? dunno, im sure it can be done more faster if they werent caring about to look well on 360°....meaning that the directors need to be clear with this, most time its their fault this kind of behabior, why? cuz if u made it perfect on every angle and the director comes and tell to the animation team, u know what...i know we was working on this 3 seconds of animation this whole month, but lets change the angle.... im sure it can be more faster and improve a lot taking out of the box a lot of wrong preconcept about 3d animation topic... this is exactly like the problem with topology, ppl who think triangles are the devil, and ppl who actually made a well done work using geometry at their benefit...this apply the same with animation...

[@paolaanimator]

I'm a college student in animation, I modeled the character models, rigged, made some props and environment. I also had other students or outside of school to help with other aspect of the project, like music and get a graphic artist. The video will be around 1 minute and a half. I already worked on it in the Fall semester for several months with feedback on story, script, etc from my Professors and classmates. Now in Spring semester I still need to fix a few things and finish rigging to start animating. My personal laptop is in the repair shop with broken fans so I am borrowing a computer. Have my work backed up. It's been a crazy process in my final Senior year in college and I learned a lot. I went for a more stylized look because it's the style I aim for in my portfolio, but it still took a lot of work. I hope I will be able to complete my work while also having other mandatory classes in order to graduate. Honestly I feel like I am perfectionist and I'm not too thrilled with my animation portfolio, I feel even when I am done with college, I want to keep improving on my skills and getting better along the way.

Do it because you're passionate about it and obsessed with discovering new things about it. There is nothing else to worry about

[@USBEN.]

Anything you do will require effort to reach good levels of quality. Its never gonna be easy. Might as well put that effort into something you like.

[@OrangeDragon04]

*Update* I was bored this weekend, learned about dynamic Topology and tried it. Sat there on autopilot while listening to music. And when I "regained consciousness" there was a pretty good looking Dragon on my screen. Gave it a skeleton, posed it to make it roar and stand on it's hind legs. I have a strange feeling about it. Something between joy and pride, but very weak. I've uploaded a 12 second video of the result.

[@MagicSwordFilms]

Even if the character being modeled is cartoony or simple I think 1-2 days is kind of too short. You have to consider iteration and general design testing. For example I'm working on a film right now and all my concept art for characters are 2D sketches, transferring a design from 2D to 3D takes a lot of trial and error to get the right personality or feeling. Requires a lot of trying out different shapes to make sure the silhouette is there and it still feels like the same character once its taken a new form.

[@JoshuaRandyBuono]

Yeah lowkey clients don’t understand shit someone needs to slap them in the face with the reality of these situations instead of declining you for someone who’s gonna do it for them (probably poorly) but for like no pay just cause they’re passionate so much manipulation happens in this industry and it’s ridiculous Understand your worth people and call your clients out to their face they need to know sitting on their ass doing nothing and throwing money at the problem won’t always work

[@ramanant963]

I work with physical art mediums, and i’ve been attending classes on maya for the past 1 month. To be honest, it’s physically exhausting. It takes forever to do high detail modelling. I’d say the softwares must be strong enough to do the whole process itself. What’s the point in spending your life with manipulating those meshes in a digital sculpture. I’m not getting the kind of satisfaction that i get from sculpting with clay.

[@virtual_intel]

Try the Human Generator Blender addon. It beats having to do it all from scratch.

[@nazonrev5087]

It helps when you're passionate about it. 3D artists could say the same thing about sculpting clay.

[@gusciousi1626]

This is one of the most backward things I've heard. I've never actually taken the time to work and learn how to manipulate clay, but I do know how to manipulate "those meshes" in a digital sculpture. If you're passionate, not only it is not exhausting, it is invigorating. It's as if I talk about something I dislike and how it drains me, of course it will. If you like traditional sculpting, stick to traditional.

[@outlander234]

@@gusciousi1626 Not only that if he is so passionate about clay he could 3d scan his models and make them digital.

[@ZalvaTionZ]

As a digital sculptor who occasionally does traditional, I find 3D much more efficient. Less mess, faster end result, more fun to just explore instead of having to plan it out in the start. I find traditional refreshing too, but I think both have their place.

Caution. I bought the class using the discount for $33 usd. However, you can't see comments until you purchase. The reviews are terrible. The are two lessons of 30 min each with no commentary and just watch him paint in a graphic editor, likely photoshop. I really like this channel, but I don't believe that you reviewed the course.

a single person .. when working regular working hours ( going to go for 50h a week) and if it is just 1 or 2 characters and a simple environment , - from scratch 2-5 weeks . - with allowance of existing assets : 2-3 weeks Just the animation , so no sound design etc A full 25 minute short with sound design etc .. about 3 months

[@kaikayoru1316]

People usually don't think outside of "animation" meaning how long it'll take to model your assets, key frames, storyboard, texturing, lighting, composition, rigging, dynamics, actual animating the character as well as camera work, and finally rendering which also takes a while depending on the type of rig your using. I may have missed a few key parts as well but that's the gist of it.
