Yeah I don't hear it enough. Those animators deserve so much more credit. Maybe it's because it's a field a lot of people are not so familiar with compared to 2D animation, and because it's done on a computer that people overlook it. But Arcane seriously has the best keyframe animation I have ever seen.

[@rano12321]

You still need to manually clean up and add animations on top of mocap, mocap isn't magic either, you can't just capture it and transfer it, for realistic animations it gives a basis for animations but you still have to change the whole thing, clean up jitters and other things and then dial the body mechanics of the creature you can animating but for stylized animations like arcane, it's all from scratch and acting out the shots by real persons so they can watch and animate.

[@mutantmagnet]

"Fortiche real animators, no motion capturing." Come on let's not do that. I do think Fortiche has achieved a level of artistry above any long form show to the point you have to start comparing them to animation teams making movies but let's not dump on people making very hard choices on how to craft their shows. I never animated in my life but I can still tell motion captured work still gets touched up on by animators, because this happens all the time for teams making videogames having to deal with the idiosyncrasies of making motion capture work in game. Everyone in the industry is doing real work but have different artistic sensibilities and their canvas is constrained by budget and time.

[@snubnosedmonke]

the ekko vs jinx fight scene was one of the coolest scenes in the show, and it makes me like it even more seeing how a father got his son to use as a reference for young ekko running, that was so cute

[@AslanAlmukhambetov]

[@Samuel-th6fw]

I'm so glad they took the time to get it right, it's such a great performance that now I can't imagine anyone but Ella Purnell as Jinx. As they said, she really captures both the quiet and emotional parts of the character as well as the eccentricity, rage and trauma. While the game version of Jinx might be one of the most iconic characters Riot has produced she was mostly just "quirky". In my opinion the show team masterfully elevated the character in every way not only by (but in great part via) the acting performance.

[@TheMuchti]

I appreciated Arcane before, by watching it 4 times and currently being on my 5th watch. But with the knowledge of this Behind the Scenes series, there is no way to do them justice. This is not some random show, this is a love letter to everyone.

[@LoganFlores]

The voice performance of Jinx is outstanding! Ella Purnell is Jinx she stole the show throughout the whole thing from the beginning to the end of the first season I hope we get to see more of Jinx! And sees what happens after the cliffhanger at the end of the First Season! Arcane will always have a special place to my heart! The show may have action but it also has sadness and it's about trauma especially with the character of Jinx because she's going through so much between losing her sister by even though she didn't technically lose her she felt very lost and empty and yet when she became a totally different person it makes you feel like you almost feel sympathetic for her because you know what she's going through this show is phenomenal and I can't wait to see what the future happens for Arcane!

[@MrSheduur]

I think it is less sympathy but more that sadness to see her fall this much, especially since she wanted to help but made it worse without realizing it. That song part "what could have been" underlines this so very well. What Powder could have been if this fateful moment did not take place as it did. So if you feel sympathetic it is mostly because you still go back to the wholesome family bond that she and Vi shared when they were younger, and that longing to get it back, even though everyone understands that this will never be.

[@BiMeSum2]

Mel voice actress omgggg, there's always something so elegant about seeing the VA's behind the mic bring the characters to life. Powder's VA ! that's such an age to be attached to this character. Amazing. LOVE. But uh... Caitlyn and Tobias looking rough there. (deleted scene??) OR.... :SOBS:

[@catloof25]

the way that fortiche and the animation style of arcane is sort of bringing back some traditional aspects of filmmaking that we don't have anymore thanks to cgi like matte paintings or the prop making but in a more modern way with 3d models and software is amazing. its evocative of the era of sculpting and stop motion with how they texture the models with the paint-like style like if you were making a clay figure. this bts series is great, so glad it got made because it really shows a whole story behind the story that is really worth the watch

[@silver9wolf6]

I am 40 years old, and this is the best tv series I have ever seen (animated or otherwise). And I have watched a lot. You people created a peace of art that that will be hard to surpass, but it shows what passionate people with time and resources can achieve. This show was created from a place of vision and passion. I never played league and never will, but I watched every cinematic, music and lore video that was released and will watch anything remotely related to runeterra in the future. You are the BEST. Love this documentary which only solidifies this opinion. I have complete faith that season 2 will be awesome!!

[@Rar830]

Completely agree, after learning the sheer amount of passion and love that went into this I love the series even more now which I didnt think was possible. I've spent days listening to video essays and hours of rewatching the MV's and listening to the soundtrack. Maybe its because its a cartoon or video game adaptation , but I feel like the show isnt nearly as popular as it should be. Like nobody I know watches it or even knows it exists.

The best episode yet. It never clicked but Arcane does shine with French influence. The environments, the architecture of Piltover, the uniforms, even the logo for Arcane is inspired by the Eiffel tower. It's amazing what can be accomplished with passionate people who are determined to go above and beyond along every step of production. The fact that one of the best-written episodes came from collaborative input from the director, writers and storyboard artists is brilliant and really reflects the trust Fortiche have in each other. Mia is a fantastic actor and should be in more live-action roles where you can appreciate her performance in a demanding role. Can't wait to hear more about the music.

I just cried for more than five minutes when they told me how a father filmed his son running towards him across the lawn, for the moment of the battle of Ekko and Jinx, just an amazing father and a very touching moment

[@KyleSmalls]

I will forever cherish Arcane

[@lg_1226]

@9:14 CHILLS bro. Amazing performance by Mia that scene is the pivotal scene that really hooked me into the series Also the animator that got to work ton the Ekko/Jinx fight scene and used his son as reference nearly gave me the tears. Such a precious moment that translated so beautifully onscreen. I'm so glad this show is snagging up awards like crazy and getting all this recognition. Seeing the hardworking and deification they all put into this project throughout this documentary just shows how much the earned and deserved it's praise.

[@martinvelkov3419]

Nothing is perfect it's all hand-crafted but it's exactly that why we all cherish and feel it on a human level. They chase after the little details that they speak that is probably done by a human and not with the easy way of modern technology like motion capturing. Back in the days people had to spend even +hours to create what is known now as animation and it wasn't as developed as now modern technology and it's that much more natural of appreciating the human hard work.

[@RowanArk]

I absolutely love how this documentary goes into all aspects of the show's making, I feel like voice actors usually get most of the attention, and don't get me wrong, they are absolutely phenomenal, but it's also really nice to finally see more of what happens for the writers, animaters and producers. I really hope we get to see more about the music next episode

I'm still not over this show, I don't think I will be in a long time

You all are a really bright star in our lifes. Thank you for making Arcane and I will be looking forward for more!

[@crashburndicoot6940]

I just came to say there's people still out there with attention spans, we made it this far & are now on the journey with you 👍 this show matters. Even if it is a little late getting here I'm blessed yall created this for us

[@LightenStar]

Agreed!

[@carolxs]

That sequence of animation with Ekko at the bridge was amazing! And much more interesting now to know the artist was thrilled to work on it. Congratulations :)

[@starace4031]

I find it breathtaking how each and every step in making Arcane is beautiful. Like the love that each and every person involved in the creation of the show put into it comes through so well. There is no show like Arcane. It's a refreshing piece of art that has so much depth to its story, visuals, acting, lighting, audio and design. 💖💖

Man i can't freaking wait for Season 2!!!

[@bertoo2355]

I feel like im watching a drama series where every moment people feel so happy and proud about arcane, its just brings me to tears.

[@christopherwolfer5197]

Most animation in the usa is a glorified commercial for a newly created product. Arcane you already had your product and selling said product was not the focus. I applaud them for making the storytelling the focus, a very rare concept in this day and age. I believe thats what creates these strings of emotion filled magical moments called episodes. This is just the tip of the iceberg I believe. Amazing amazing

[@slothhq1929]

so true

[@omega_blackfox-6545]

Я не знаю, как передать словами работу этой студии... каждый из них сделал шедевр, в каждый момент рабочего процесса, каждый добился от себя 300% работы, сколько над собой, сколько над всем проектом, пожалуй это лучшая кинохроника о создании подобных проектов, что когда либо мне встречалась, спасибо за, на столько глубоко подошли к данному проекту, и нашли силы показать его нам всем!

[@_inSight__]

That moment in the show where the performer is on stage playing that weird violin was the moment this show jumped to the top position for me. The way they build the scene, around a musical performance and the music itself, weaving multiple complex layers of drama, skill, ingenuity, and commitment, to provide a sequence of breathtaking highs and lows, while still maintaining the progression and development of both the characters and the plot. So, I'm very pleased to learn they styled the soloist in the show off the same guy who actually plays the solo in the score. Mad respect.

[@shanechristian8332]

A true masterpiece. I couldn’t help crying. Thank you for everything.

[@sogdianazholdasbek6266]

When Ella was speaking I was like AMAZED, because I really thought that Jinx is here, she is perfect voice actress, as well as other actors( my favourite is Heimerdinger)

[@mukamuka0]

Voice actor is so talent!! This is incredible! Kudos to both Riot and Fortiche team to make Arcane happen

[@elliottwarkus8643]

I’m so glad they did a part on the voice acting at the end of episode 3. The scene from “You did this? Why?” to Vi walking away is burned into my memory for its raw emotional intensity. Powder’s actress absolutely killed it.

[@m333y]

is this (18:23) a scene from s2???? i don't remember seeing this scene before, and caitlyn's father looks devastated and it seems to be because of (maybe?) the de4th of caitlyn's mom, and all of the flowers... hope to see any caitvi scene from s2 on this documentary lol

[@pinkunicorn3373]

vous avez probablement raison. J'ai pensé à la même chose que vous. Cette scène n'apparait pas dans Arcane S1. Donc nous avons eu peut être un petit avant gout de la saison 2. :)

[@m333y]

@@pinkunicorn3373 some say that it could be a deleted scene from s1 or, as they didn't planned to make a second season at the beggining, from ep10... but it won't be so crazy that maybe is a scene from the first episode of s2 or something (i want to believe that as we won't get s2 in a while hahaha)

[@pinkunicorn3373]

@@m333y ou bien une scène supprimée de la S1 mise dans la S2. :) En tout cas, vivement la S2. Riot a tellement appris à nous surprendre qu'on aura peut être une surprise dans le 4eme épisode... ou pas.

@@pinkunicorn3373 Si tu regardes à 18:27, tu peux voir le nom de la scène en haut à la gauche. Ça dit e201_s60_p150. La nomenclature indique probablement saison deux, épisode 1 (e201) scène numéro 60 (s60). p150, je ne suis pas certain.

The father and son recording the ekko scene together made arcane ever better for me. What a masterpiece.

[@Drawdu90]

I honestly don't know what to tell. The amount of work is just crazy and I can't tell how grateful I am to the Fortiche Team and the Riot Team for making this beautiful masterpiece. Anyone who worked on this show who see this, you have to know that you made us dream and it's beautiful to me that you can give this emotions. Special mention to the animator that had the opportunity to works with his son to make the ekko scene where he runs, you must be so proud of him and I'm sure he's also very proud of you. I also loved the moment in the video where we see people at Fortiche doing the reference scenes, I laughed a lot. Thank you again Riot and Fortiche

[@Consisto77]

Even the filming of behind the scenes is a piece of art. I can see you deserved every award you got and I can't wait for the season 2.

[@NuBeKiNg34]

the reference work is probably what made all the difference, what a gorgeous show of skill, talent, and creative thinking. bravo.

[@smashrosa8111]

This BTS is so interesting and everyone that worked on Arcane are so talented. The ingenuity behind the creation of the show is insane! I can't wait to see the next part with the music team. Every league player love their works.

[@fernandafort7679]

The way even the actor's voices are perfect for the characters, show us a lot the perfectionism put in this masterpiece. Arcane is one of my biggest inspirations. Art is one of the first words that came to my mind when i saw the first episode. Until now, i've watched the show 10 times and still cannot get over it. It's just too perfect. Thank you for not giving up on this and finish the project. You're the best.

[@lizfeelsfunny9949]

Its so beautiful hearing the stories and references the team used for the characters, from siblings bonds to a father son moment.

[@FableP]

Man, watching these guys shoot their references for the animation reminds me of when I was in school. And even now when I draw, it's pretty accurate. A lot of the times you really do be sitting there making some wild faces in the mirror lol

[@nothingiseverperfect]

This is absolutely truly so inspirational. Watching every second of this was basically: “THAT’S HOW THEY DID THAT?!?!” the amount of amazingly talented and hard working people they have working at each part: - how the storyboard artists start combing the story - how the concept artist begin drafting their art - how the 3D modelers use their art to create a model - how that 3D model is then sent to the rigging team to create movement and flow - THEY EVEN HIRED PEOPLE TO DO ANALOG ANIMATION everything about this shows process was so well crafted and meticulous, every shot and scene from the show is truly its own “illustration and painting” And absolute masterpiece and masterclass. I hope it catapults the industry into a better path. It just feels so sad seeing HBO and Cartoon Network cancel their animation shows.

[@konya8248]

Why do I have a strong feeling they're gonna give a preview for Season 2 after all of these are finished. PLEASE DO xD

[@TheSweeeet1234]

big bravo to the man at 22:50 and his son! the best scene in the whole series

So THAT'S why the gemstone stood out so much. I couldn't quite put my finger on it as to why aside from it is glowing. It was the perfect sphere that was putting me off and making the gemstone stand out compare to everything else.
