That‘s what I was trying to achieve! :D

[@bricevr6647]

Ooooh, I love the P-wing design!!!! (It's my main kart in the game.)

[@nathedits_yt]

Wooow amazing. It's really very fluid, well played. I also do stop motion at home, but they're a bit rubbish. Can you give me some advice and tips please?

[@mayoshixi]

Thank you much, I'm glad you enjoyed! :D Ok, basically, when you're starting out, of course your work will be rather bad, take a look at my older videos, those are really not good at all! But that's all right, since of course you're not good yet after only having started out, no human ever was good at anything right away! :) So it's actually really simple. You'll improve the fastest if you just practice regularly. Practicing a little each day on a regular basis will help you the most in that regard! And you have to make sure to slightly increase the difficulty of what you're working on as you get more and more experience! When it comes to stop motion specifically, forget about making big financial investments when you're starting out. Just grab any phone or tablet with a camera, build yourself a tripod for it to keep the camera steady, and just focus on animating (the free app stop motion studio has everything you need)! And lastly, simply watch KZbin tutorials and try to immediately incorporate what you learned into your work (that last part is important), there are so so many great videos out there!

[@nathedits_yt]

Thank you very much, I will follow your advice 😉

[@mayoshixi]

Glad to help :)

[@jonathanthomas9259]

Impressive!

[@bricksterquickster5502]

A throwback to my childhood! I've watched alot of Mario Kart Lego stopmotions personally I am not a really biggest fan of Lego Mario due to the lack of minifigs, they've made the buildable figs look somewhat good tho and the maybe upcoming karts should be exciting since more scale = more details in my opinion and ofc the karts look amazing in the video too! Also the stopmotion looks very good too. Coming from an Lego car builder

[@mayoshixi]

Thank you so much lad, I'm glad you liked the video and karts! :D Yeah, the Lego Mario sets are really dang unfortunate. I think they really shine with all the buildable characters, those look really great and faithful to me. Dorrie, Yoshi, DK, Bowser etc., great stuff. But what really stings are all the background builds. Take DK's hut, Bowser's castle oder Peach's castle for example. Those are basically just really weird facades of what they're supposed to be, instead of actually feeling like the exact thing from the game. At least there sets line the Airship that are better in this regard. And the Mario figure itself is also a little whack, especially if you try to make stop motion animations with it. So yeah, hopefully the new Mario Kart sets will be alright! :)

[@mayoshixi]

That's fantastic! :D (Even though I don't really think of myself as an expert 😅) Well, if you want to get better at animating, you'll definitely need some patience, but if you're willing to put in the work, there's no reason why you couln't become really good at animating! :D The two most important things in my opinion when it comes to improving is to regularly practice and to watch tutorials and try to incorporate the stuff you learned into your own projects! :) Take little steps at a time, slowly pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and trying new and harder challanges :)

Koopa! The GOAT! He’s my main in Mario Kart, by the way

Yeah, Koopa is totally the underrated gem of Mario Kart! :D

[@comedyjohn0]

@@mayoshixi my go-to combo is Koopa with the circuit special, tri-force tires, and the plan glider. Super fast and very maneuverable!

[@mayoshixi]

Ah yes, a lightweight character with a fast kart combo, always great! And really sleek looking as well! :) Yeah, it probably won't surprise you that my main is in fact blue Yoshi. With the Biddybuggy and small tires, the drift boost fills up super quickly, which I find super fun to play :D

[@comedyjohn0]

@@mayoshixi that’s a good one! I’ve been using that combo for about 2 years, now. I don’t necessarily race competitively, so it’s more about looks and aesthetic than performance. I find the combo to be rather iconic

[@mayoshixi]

Yeah, totally, I completely agree that aesthetic and the fun you yourself have with your kart is faaar superior to using what is considered meta and competitively viable! Some of my less experienced friends I play Mario Kart with always pick all the competetive kart builds, thinking that it will somehow increase their chance at winning, and I still destroy them in each race anyway, even when I'm using some rather goofy characters and karts instead :)

[@martijnklaassen3536]

[@mlcsracingnetwork]

How did you make the dice? They look absolutely amazing

[@mayoshixi]

Sorry, what exactly do you mean mean with dice? When I think of a dice, I think of those things -> 🎲 , but there aren't any in this video, so I hope you can forgive my confusion 😅

[@mlcsracingnetwork]

I'm talking about the Mario Kart question mark Item randomizer that gives items when you hit it

[@mayoshixi]

Ah, of course! I found a video online of an item box spinning in front of a green screen, which I utilized throughout my video. Then, I just stitched together a simple exploding into particles animation in the program Apple Motion, which I used each time a character breaks one of the boxes. :)

[@mayoshixi]

Phew, making the karts was quite challenging, it took a lot of patience to come up with the final designs, and I had to break down a lot of my bigger lego sets to get the pieces I needed 🥲

[@CresencioTorres-o5y]

@@mayoshixi It was worth it nonetheless

[@Cathykioe]

Heaven from heaven Minecraft

[@Miles-lk7zd]

how did you make those karts, like what Koopa uses?

[@mayoshixi]

I designed and built all of those myself. I'm not exactly the most competent Lego builder, so they aren't actually that complex.

[@SailorWhyachi]

The lego animations themselves look great and have clear effort to it, but the actual pace feels pretty slow. Camera angles are also pretty bland as there isn't much variety between them. Looking at motorsports of various types helps a lot with what type of angles can be used. Other small things can be said here and there but they won't amount as much as what is listed above, and this is actually one of the best videos for mario kart stopmotion I have seen in quite a while. I believe there is potential in the future, but for now, while good, the product here is flawed.

[@mayoshixi]

Oh my god, you can't believe how happy I am to read absolutely valid and friendly communicated criticism! :D Yeah, you're totally right. Every shot feels so slow and like you said, the camera angles are almost aaaaalways the same, it's hideous. The fact that the race track is literally just straightaways with two turns doesn't help either. So yeah, it's definitely flawed (even though pretty much every creative work has at least a few "flaws"). I actually animated the scenes in the beginning of 2021 and was too busy to enter post production until 2023, when I had gotten a lot more advanced and had the same thoughts as you. So yeah, I knew it'd only be a matter of time until someone noticed the flaws as well. Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing your opinion, I really appreciated it! :D And if you feel like it, let me know about the other small things that could be improved which you mentioned :)

[@SailorWhyachi]

It turns out I am very slow. 1. It felt as though because the models themselves are quite big that you couldn't make moves with them the way you could if either the track was bigger or the cars smaller. 2. One thing i loved to do when making my own stopmotion race was working with the crowd. With the crowd in this being so open, I would have liked just some small touches here and there to give more life to the background. Or even just to background objects, like maybe make a mushroom release spores or someone climbing on the Easter island head. 3. I don't feel as though the water and sky sections did much to enhance the racing. I think it's mainly the atmosphere and their length. The shortness of it feels kind of slapped on and it isn't interactive beyond "they are in the sky and water." Since you also have a desert portion, an Oasis would fit the theme of the track and work better within the design, and I would personally cut out the sky section altogether. Personally, animating things in the air is tough. 4. The item boxes stick out like a sore thumb when not being built out of bricks the way everything else is. The back is also just blue but I don't see a super great way of getting around that. That's all I have in terms of more niche problems I had. Also for future reference watching F1, WRC, and other motorsports I'd massively helpful for checking out some neat camera angles, and I would also draw inspiration from things like Need for Speed and Gran Turismo for more cinematic stuff.

[@mayoshixi]

@@SailorWhyachi Thanks for sharing your opinions! :D 1. Yes, although I think there's a cool contrast between Koopa's super tiny maneuverable kart and Bowser's enormous, but totally unpractical and chunky vehicle. A king would obviously invest in a big, imposing vehicle, whereas a poor Koopa would just use the bare minimum required to race. 2. Toootally, it would make everything feel so much more alive and infinitely enhances the immersion. 3. Nah, I think those are really cool and were a lot of fun to make and look really fancy. 🙃 I obviously couldn't make a Mario Kart video without flying and underwater segments. But I can see where you're coming from when you're saying they don't add much from a pure racing perspective. But to be honest, doesn't that kinda make it very faithful to the Mario Kart game itself? ;) 4. Yeah I can see that, having those as well as the item wheel items in Lego form would have been a lot cooler. I gotta be honest, I think the movie Cars probably has the biggest potential for being inspirational in a project like a Mario Kart animation! You see, F1 is filmed in real time with real existing cameras, whereas I'm making animated films. I can place my camera in the absurdest and most insane of places, which obviously wouldn't physically work in real life in a real race! :) But anyway, thanks for the taking the time to share some of your opinions! :D

[@andreprince4500]

3:36 How you do that?🤔

[@mayoshixi]

That's a little complicated to explain, but I basically took each of Koopa's body parts, cut them out in Photoshop, and animated them growing out of the parts of the shell in my editing program.

[@andreprince4500]

What's Photoshop?🤔

[@mayoshixi]

Pretty much the best image editing program. I suggest you to do some research on Google or KZbin about it if you're interested in how it works. :)

[@andreprince4500]

AND THE TAN PART HOW DID IT CHANGR COLOR????🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@mayoshixi]

oh that was actually the simplest part. You know how animated films consist of a lot of individual images? In many of those images, the shell is tan, because the pieces I used for the shell don't exist in the same color as Koopa's body. But at one point, from one image to the next, I switch out the empty shell with Koopa. That's where the color change comes from.
