How to make a short film | MAKING OF MISMATCHED

[@mynameismorty2609]

Can't believe I am such a crybaby when I am doing a webtoon while this women is over here making a 10/10 frame by frame short film by herself.

[@Genyasproperty]

you’re making a webtoon 😮 I can’t even draw well

[@eat_buttons]

Im making a webtoon too

[@THATBrokeAroSpecWallet]

Can't believe yall have motivation

[@marinastoeva6591]

Right now I am making my own 2d animated shot film

[@Bruh-jr9vi]

Wish I had that much motivation 😭

[@CatOnARadio]

Dude I really wish a lot of more people would do a behind the scenes video, because IT'S JUST SO FRICKIN COOL TO SEE SOMEONES PROCESS! I can thoroughly say this was fun to watch.

[@chipstealer.-.]

Samee the process is just so nice to see

[@ambervanderhooft]

Maybe you would like the channel DeadSound too, nice animations, but the videos about the process are even nicer :p

[@CatOnARadio]

@@ambervanderhooft I have to check that out :0 Edit: Oh my gosh, I remember this from the Auto dale series! I'll definitely have to look into that now.

[@ambervanderhooft]

@@CatOnARadio I love videos were artists show what they did. I loved this video🥰 The behind the scenes of the dinosaur series are also super nice

[@Grace-cl1mo]

Thank you for making this video, I feel like the world of animation mysteries have been opened up to me! I just finished up a couple of my first 2D animations and they're very messy, but this helped me learn so much and I'm motivated to go back and fix it up over winter break! :)

[@JackieDroujko]

So glad to share some knowledge!

[@NelsonStJames]

We definitely need more of this kind of content. The tools for anybody to get into animation and tell their own stories are more available than ever before. Animation as an artform should be booming now.

[@evesjeanz]

im bout to learn gimme like a year and some change

[@scribzscribbles]

I m hoping to making my own film one day you’re a really big inspiration to me and I’ve love following this process!

[@novatron8667]

you are a huge inspiration- in december last year i wanted to make a short film and i blocked out all the months and ideas and the rough story and feel and i was super motivated, and then it came to january and i had scheduled it to be literally writing a soundtrack (never done it before) then storyboarding in march and i just completely gave up. i didn’t know until i watched this how much actually goes into a short film, and i just got a huge boost of motivation to learn more about the process and software and all that stuff so i might be able to try something like this one day!! thank you so much, you are so talented and creative and cool

[@JackieDroujko]

Good luck!!

[@the_chazz4696]

okay so i know animation and filmmaking is really difficult and tedious and all that.. i’ve always known that. BUT OMG I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS THIS TEDIOUS- i knew there was a lot but istg i had no idea how much. Newfound respect for animation yet again ✨

[@aliza6959]

Hi! I'm currently making a short film for my senior project and you gave me SO MUCH INSIGHT into the process. I already knew it wasn't going to be easy, but I really appreciate you posting this 😭(it's 12 in the morning and I'm having an existential crisis over how this humbled me)

[@the_sky_is_blue_and_so_am_I]

You got this!!

[@psychomania7614]

Hope it went well are it goes well

[@aliza6959]

@@the_sky_is_blue_and_so_am_I thank you, I hope so lol

[@JuXuS1]

as a 3d guy since 2002 i find your work allready incredible. documenting it this way is just twice the work. respect!

[@LucasTbooker]

I’ve just graduated in 3D Animation and one I have to say is: you’re a warrior. I have no patience to do an entire animation production right now 😂

[@theseanwardshow]

I wish this was uploaded as a vertical instead of the side boxes! But great inspiration here

[@forzenfukuroanimations]

Damn, this is a perfect way to show the process of animation! This is exactly what I have been trying to look for! I swear there needs to be more videos like these around in the media. Seeing the behind the scenes is exceeding-ling important! O_O thank you so much for making this! Your whole process is GOD TEAR. How long did this animation take overall!??

[@aqrion9969]

wacthed the final, god damn was it worth it.

[@rachelmckelvey5938]

I'm ending my sophomore year of college soon, and honestly, I've really been struggling to keep up with the work for my sophomore film and have such a straightforward and disciplined pipeline like this, but watching this gives me some motivation and I just wanna say thank you for such awesome content and such great work!

[@Itsdivinearts]

OMG I wish I saw this last semester when I was starting my senior thesis. Will definitely come back to this when I start on my next short film. This was super helpful!

[@VioAnimation]

Wow the thorough process and all the thinking even has ME overwhelmed, great job at doing all of that and finishing!!

[@marcyroblox_edits6657]

I respect the effort and dedicatation you did. It really is just splendid to watch the behind the scenes. But not just you, so many other animators out there and just artist themselves, are just mad respect.

[@shellyeditsalot]

this was amazing! it's so wonderful to see you create a full body of work (BTS, an art book, and the actual short film)! this is the type of thing i dream of! finding the time to make something for yourself... is quite precious ✨💅 now, to watch your short film for the millionth time! 😂

[@SmokeandSpirit]

Ive gotta imagine you put over 80 hours into all the pre-animation prep for the film. Crazy how much work you but into conceptualization. It's pretty damn sharp by the end though no doubt. Anyways, Its cool to see your process. Really shows just how much you pour into any project, and how much you invest in learning new things along the way. Its such an arduous journey. I've really been considering dabbling in some short form special effect animations to take my drawings to the next level. I'll definitely be starting small 😅

[@lundulaproductions]

Wow, I'm glad this video appeared on my home page in the recommendations. It's always intriguing to see the creative process and behind the scenes of a film. I love animation and film and my ultimate goal is to one day start my own animation film production company and produce feature films so I would love to start making animations to get my name out there. I can see the hard work and passion that was put into this. The fact you did that all by yourself is something that should be applauded for. I'll be honest, the process does look tedious and a lot of work but that's what happens when you work on something big. I'll watch your film now that I've seen this, but this was such an inspiring and interesting video. Great work!!

[@anna1designer]

Thank you for sharing the process! They are amazing and a lot of works for sure! I am considing to make a very short film during my break after my contract. Your process really inspried and encouraged me!

[@JackieDroujko]

Thanks so much! Make your film! 💪

[@TonyTylerDraws]

Doing the BTS both shows how much work and thought goes into something like this, but also makes it feel super approachable

[@zinwho0]

I watched this like a million times over and over. You’re inspiring me to make one! Working on the storyboard right now!

[@Firegirlable]

I'm slowly getting back into animation and this video was the first one that popped up in my search. This was so cool to see someone else's creative process. I've even added some of your steps in to my own process.

[@avajones6835]

I feel like that first part is so relatable. I will always do more work in the beginning in favor of doing less work in the end. It’s just easier.

[@Baando_design]

YOU MAKE THIS LOOK SO SIMPLE BUT I KNOW THIS IS THE KIND OF PROCESS THAT CAN GET OVERWHELMING PRETTY QUICK IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE DOING. KUDOS AND GOALS!

[@abhayraja412]

Thank you 🙏 for making this short yet informative video covering each part of your process. 🙏

[@user-kl2mj6lb7d]

Wow✨✨✨ I am fascinated by your works! All choices of colors, scene frames - some pure magic!

[@inespereira2735]

Thank you so much for this video. At the end of this semester, I have an animation project. My teacher didn't teach us much so having someone show you his process from start to finish is perfect. Miss you are my savior.

[@SugarCub]

I could not stop saying wow throughout this whole thing. You're an inspiration! This definitely fills me with motivation.

[@tjmixmasta]

Definitely copping the artbook! I've been working on personal animatics to prepare for a transition into Storyboarding for Animation, so seeing the process beyond the boards/animatic phase is really cool!

[@unbeknownstx12]

this is half inspirational and half amazingly daunting for me I wrote a book and drew out the first 10 chapters with the intention of eventually making it an animation while I knew it was going to be a lot of work an learning a lot of programs I know somehow with enough perseverance anything can be done thank you for showing your process you have no clue how amazingly talented you are

[@sinanartslan]

This is so inspirational. I just literally want to get up and start to make my own short film haha.

[@AmberLillyPayne]

This is incredible, outside of it being delightful to see a talented artist at work, it's hugely motivational to go and create.

[@chrisharden8150]

Beautiful work!!

[@laurelnymph6988]

I absolutely love this video. Im an Animation major and this video gave me more insight on the pre production industry than my three years of education in Uni. What is the program you use for the checklist? Is it a special site for you to keep your to-do lists in order?

[@louiselaera3649]

That’s what I want to know as well!

[@blackkitty369]

Seeing the process of animation is a fav of mine. Love how small ideas can effect everything. You are Amazing! Keep up the good work!

[@crazylegsmurphy]

Damn... I have an animated film I've been sitting on for decades and this video has inspired me to leave it in the drawer. :D So much work and I am so very lazy. Well done, it looks great.

[@erinrising2799]

this was so cool to learn how much work is involved with even a pretty short film

[@genevieverapounzelle]

This is a great in depth process description that seems to have help boost my motivation that I was loosing lately. Thank you for that video! I can tell you are experienced in the animation industry and are efficiency oriented when it comes to streamlining the production steps. I will definetely re-watch this whenever I have a new personal animation inspiration and feeling overwhelmed to start. As a professional 2D FX artist, I only get to draw FX at work, and I can feel the growing need to create my own little films. This video will help me navigate the pre-production steps i'll need to go through on my own. Koodos Jackie!

[@Shaeyah_12]

I’ve tried animating and it didn’t quite work out. The way you did this is cool! And it made me want to try again but be more positive this time!

[@IReallyLikePurple24]

Literally have to make an animated short film and have it all finished by March 2023!! Its alot of work for one person so this helped to see what I should prioritise/do to make it easy and save time

[@animatorFan74]

Thank you so much for showing this process. I'm making my first 3d animated short film in Blender and it's been a struggle. Might get some ideas from your process here.... thanks :)

[@mosesestrada7856]

You have taught me an insane amount of knowledge in a matter of minutes I couldn’t even discover in a huge amount of years. Thank you so much!!!!!🙏🙏🙏

[@platypusnduck]

OH MY GOD I ABSOLUTELY LOVED BANG BANG BUT I NEVER KNEW WHO MADE IT-- ITS MY FAV ANIMATED FILM EVER!!

[@litterbugger]

Amazing work! Working on my own shorts and I wanna see those production xcel-sheets so bad!

Woah It's so cool the insane amouth of dedication, effort, planning in a excel book, that I just spechless, that's love to art. Also hope one day I can do my own film, you are truly a inspiration and thank you for share the whole process Edit: I doing my first shortfilm also by myself, It's a stop motion, so I come back to take it as reference :)

Gotta give you major props! I'm currently in the midst of doing the same thing with a small team but seeing you do this solo is a huge inspiration! Cant wait to watch the short as well and keep it up ❤🔥

I hope you make more tutorials about your animating process. I joined your Patreon as well. Excited to see all thats to come :)

what a hellish amount of work! great short, super interesting backstage. Congratulations and thank you!

[@liddonburns8195]

You're incredible! This inspired me and I learned so much! Making a book of it is SUCH a good idea!

[@MissyMona]

When people go to professional animators and say they're talented it usually comes from a good place, but you'd never call any professional in other fields talented when they do their work. Clearly being a 2D animator whose a professional is time consuming and skill intensive. This piece is such a good example of that.

[@PandorasGardenstudio]

This was very inspiring! I recently started animating shorts, your process look much more organized!😄

[@CatherineLHaws]

Thank you for sharing this with us! Great story, and great work.

[@kirasigncomics]

omg this was so interesting to watch, I never went to animation school so I am realyl deep dive kind of animator and it is so interesting to watch how someone takes so many steps to prepare their film to look so good in the end. Its really a process and a miracle. And here I am who animates straight ahead and wonders why my characters never stay on model during animation XD. This was really helpfull and cool to watch. thank you for making this. :)

[@tonpresley]

What amazing project! What amazing artist! What amazing making of! Congratulations lady!

[@notsolittlebeananymore]

I never realized you worked on bang bang that being a great animation and I loved every part of it!😮 also good job on the short film! Me hoping to be a animator someday you really inspire me 😊!

[@hollyhedges1486]

This has to be one of the most amazing things I’ve ever watched

[@FullchainAnimation]

You are super inspiring! I've only done a 4-min storyboard for my own thing, with absolutely no color plan yet. You've got me searching for background and lighting vibes now lol. Your work is fantastic! I wish you all success

[@sweetparriz]

Wait- YOU MADE A SHORT FILM BY YOURSELF? Wow- I would've given up in 3 minutes 🥲. But this is so cool, and gives me inspiration. I'm excited to see what you do next :)

[@teamEP789]

i admire your dedication and artistry. bravo!

[@-frogfingers-]

SO GOD DAMN UNDERRATED THIS IS A WORK OF ARTTTTTT IM SUBSCRIBING! Have a great day this work is amazing

[@sarah-ql1qv]

Love this!! I’ve been looking for a video like this for a while now so I’m super glad I found this:)

[@Eddierath]

Love the emersion.. yet I found in the comments that this took you a year so it's both inspirational yet its a truth of how daunting animation can be.

[@NickNackStudios20]

Hey there, fun fact, did you know that John Lassiter the former chief creative officer of Disney, and Pixar, did the same exact thing with the backgrounds when making test footage for and unfinished animated adaptation of where the wild things are. It was CGI backgrounds with 2-D characters just happened in the 1980s Disney first started using CGI for their movies, and John Lassiter wanted to experiment with cgi which led to Lassiter being fired from Disney and eventually being hired by Pixar.

[@Abassabd]

If you choose not to put in a lot of thinking power, you have to put in a lot of working power. If you choose not to put in a lot of working power, then you have to put in a lot of effort power. If you choose not to put in a lot of effort power, then you must put in a lot of thinking power.

Great job on this. I'm sharing it with the animation students I teach so they can at the very least hear how many times you use references alone.
