Fantastic Video 🤩 Was very informative and educational, not only on how you make the series but also really good advice on making an animated series. Excellent breakdown of your process and workflow, I like how you use the colour of a location to compliment the scene. Subtle things like that really make me appreciate the series even more :) And I was surprised when I heard your voice coming out so many of the characters, especially the welsh kids 😂👌

[@locochavo4560]

Excellent video! Btw do you think heavy planning can create a animated faster without sacrificing quality. Like l do a lot of planning in Blender to create a face rig for each character with a auto lip sync feature, create the backgrounds and reuse them as much as possible, and use 3d models to animate my characters in order to avoid having to draw keyframes and inbeweening

[@CulpamlandExtra]

Using your 3D rigging and locations technique is ideal for ‘quick producing’ videos. It doesn’t truly depend on what the subject matter of the videos.

[@DuckyOFY]

I should study blender for a future project, but does it only work for adobe character only? I want to make and animate the characters in flash

[@CulpamlandExtra]

As long as you can make your characters in flash have a transparent background and export as a png sequence then you’ll be able to use blender that way too

[@angktrl]

great video bro but i have a quick question. is krita good for animation or should i use adobe?

[@CulpamlandExtra]

I’ll double check for you and see which program is ideal. What sort of idea have you got for your project?

[@angktrl]

@@CulpamlandExtra an animation series , two realities completely different from each other merge, conflict and mystery erupts about how it happened and why. I am so good at English so sorry if you didn't understand. I am an amateur in animation and mostly want to share the story that I have had created and learnt to draw and animate better during the process. If you have a software to recommend I would be more then glad ! Also thanks for the fast reply

[@deadmeme1037]

Do you draw, shade, add lighting, add sounds and all those things by yourself? I'm wondering cause I plan on animating in the future and was curious on how much one can do on their own.

[@CulpamlandExtra]

Yes I do! It all depends on which programs you use. Adobe character animator helps with taken the load off whilst still having the ability to do traditional frame by frame animations. It’s all down to what one can do really. I started off my learning how to formulate a script before I animated. I’m still learning bit by bit 😬

[@deadmeme1037]

@@CulpamlandExtra Being able to do that by oneself is pretty cool. And for someone who hasn't been animating for a super long time the show looks really nice.

@@deadmeme1037 thank you! It’s slowly evolving into what I want it to be: relatable yet over the top. The next video that I’m working on will be ‘How to date’, should be up soon! I’m on Instagram frequently and will be happy to answer anymore question there!

[@Randomsaiyanfacts]

Which app you should use creating animated series

[@CulpamlandExtra]

It’s not so much ‘should’ be, but more ‘could use’. It all depends on what you wish to create. I had a lot of ideas, I’m only one person animating it, so I had to find the best way possible to be both consistent and efficient. Loads of young users use Flipaclip, that’s a free app on tablet/phone devices.

[@imdavidanimations2018]

I'm having some trouble with finding voice actors for my show with many characters. Any tips?

[@CulpamlandExtra]

Hey! Thanks for asking, it really depends on your situation. If you can afford voice actors, go on Fiverr.com for some affordable prices. If you have friends willing to lend you a hand, ask them!

[@dylanrosario5731]

Tell me how did you made we bare bears and all

[@mohamadabdi8085]

Hey, im interested in making an animated series too, but i dont know how you make your setting in blender and how you can use 2d characters in the 3d world.

[@CulpamlandExtra]

Hey! That’s cool to hear, the process is quite easy. I export my animation as a png sequence from an animation program (Adobe character animator), next I create a plane in blender and have the png sequence act as a texture. With alpha channels turned on (to make the transparency work) the characters will be moving in your blender world, reacting to lights and casting shadows

@@CulpamlandExtra how did you make the background environment in blender? Do u have a video or link to a video for that?

@@CulpamlandExtra im starting from scratch, i dont have any experience with blender. I know how to make the plane and scene size, and i know how to import my png sequence into blender, but i was wondering if i could just download objects and move them around in my scene or if i have to make everything from scratch.

@@mohamadabdi8085 you can do both: import objects and/or create everything on screen. I use Turbosquid , a website that offers free models for you to use. I only use that site for complex designs.
