KLAUS | Lighting Time-Lapse Jesper II

[@missoli]

its amazing how 2D animation can still look 3D with the right type of lighting. amazing!

[@spritemon98]

I wish more movies did this

[@karucovers_gt]

This studio is gold! It's amaizing the animation and the light work, all the team. ❤️❤️❤️🥺

[@cdscissor]

I still wonder ever anyone's gonna try to replicate KLAS or if there will be a publicly available version of it someday.

[@TheBetterGamer]

You mean the lighting techniques? Those are easy to replicate in any animation program because they're just vectors being manipulated over time.

[@cdscissor]

@@TheBetterGamer Well, in theory, yes. But there's seems to be more to it than that. For one, it's clearly much more organised, you can see the folders for each part of Jesper. Just animated vectors won't be enough, the characters must be coloured in different layers to make this work. Two, it does seem to have some automatic tracking of some sort, though of course a talented individual is still needed to finesse it. Also, the way these vectors behave seem to resemble masks more than anything else with their vector controls and you can see actually on this footage, you can also adjust the feathering. Speaking of. The feathering doesn't act just fade out, the transition is coloured independently. We don't know if this colour is manually picked or if it's just part of the behaviour of this proprietary tool (As every vector or atleast vector layer seems to colour differently, acting almost as materials would in 3D software except y'know this is 2D.), either way, not as simple as vectors being manipulated overtime. Granted, they did develop a proprietary tool as their solution to a problem, I would expect it to not be so simple.

I hope it too, I'm not an expert animator, but I worked several times in this field and trying to replicate this workflow let's say in after effects or blender (grease pencil) is actually super hard, not only because of the layers but also because having two things overlapped do things well together is a pain in the ass, it always looks a bit janky and offset

[@cdscissor]

@@ZarkOner Neither of us may not be expert animators, but the shading and colouring is really more the job of the colour department so we're not really expected to understand how to do... This. Let alone from scratch. (You are an awesome graffiti artist tho, subbed 👍)

[@АлександрМарков-щ2к]

adobe after effects does the trick

[@LewisPassos-gq9yn]

Cool volumetric lighting, even for a hand-drawn animated movie. That's impossible for an ordinary hand-drawn animation lighting artist to get right.

[@harrymotus]

I would kill to get that software

[@Renonoi.studio]

I wanna work In SPA when I grow up...

[@RayAnia_Doodle]

Gorgeous work! Thank you for creating Klaus!

[@jacobbelow]

This reminds me a lot of the Mask Tool that I use in Adobe AfterEffects! Such a fascinating and effective (if slow and painstaking) technique!

[@Talia8pie]

Thank you very much for posting these, I love them

[@1010-x5k]

Beautiful!

[@CapemediaAnimationStudios]

Wow so much talent, patience and skill

[@vovafett178]

Amazing work!!!

[@edsmith9416]

I would love to know just how much time/work this clip represents. The end result is beautiful

[@florianaupetit]

Hello, This one took roughly 5 hours to do :)

[@edsmith9416]

@@florianaupetit A lot faster than I thought. The software must do a great job of speeding up the lighting task because it's such a manually intensive process.

[@belensennhauser5122]

It´s amazing! Thanks a lot 💘

[@elidesenha]

amazing!

[@gmcubed]

Has no one created similar tools for photoshop yet?

[@pagentyt6043]

i like Klaus

[@kevinzico]

That's a lot of work

[@VioletFeatherWind]

Hey, so I just subscribed to this channel! This is also a really great movie! And I love the lighting!

[@josevicentenietoballestero2674]

W O W ! ! !

[@kaytoonstudios]

Awesome! I will try to do the same. I wish and hope it will be a success!

[@gptyh4544]

Hello what software did you do light, texture and shade of animation

[@1010-x5k]

Que software es ese?

[@adelmo83]

I need buy this software!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@breleleu]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@AbdoNabilesawi]

what is name for program?

[@shao7414]

the name of the software please

[@Little1Cave]

KLAS (Klaus Light and Shadow)

[@iLikeTheUDK]

Does KLAS not even have any tracking? this doesn't look much easier than the really manual process they did in Who Framed Roger Rabbit Mad respect, still

[@adrianabeetamech6839]

But for what is it good? if the softwear isnt even public?
