Even I thought a Necromancer Digging a grave at night lol but this is way Cooler Olof

[@BigDadNRG]

Well done. The way yo mix 2d and 3d so seamlessly is always inspiring.

[@jana_storm]

I love the result! So much fun to be part of this ❤️

[@chris_warstat]

Love the idea and how your animation turned out! Always interesting to see how different people approach the same task. Maybe consider turning something like this into a community challenge at some point? :)

[@OlofStorm]

Cheers Chris! Yeah a community thing could be cool. Could be for an upcoming one 🤙

[@ninjagogetta]

the sound i would create thanos sitting on his throne taking of his infinity glove

[@majastenstameyes]

This was so great, can’t wait to see more of these. KZbin’s Howard Wimshurst has always got something going on, but he’s definitely the type to be up for a challenge!

[@OlofStorm]

Cheers Maja! Yea good suggestion!

[@julio2768]

Thank you for showing this step of how to create an animation and imagination through an audio

[@jaytoons6845]

BEAUTIFUL AS ALWAYS OLOF STORM

[@OlofStorm]

Cheers Jayden!

[@sameera_viraj_K]

Im a VFX artist myself. I also had the Pirate burying something and at the end throwing his shovel kind a imagination. But what you came up is also nice. Great work. Always love your work ❤👌💪

[@chumisaxosa3361]

I love it. I would have also created a pirate like you previously said but they are dropping the chains as they enter the lower deck where a prisoner is being kept

[@jesselapierre]

Love this! I want to know the rest of the story now haha. Excited to see future episodes!!

[@elquintinoart47]

Love love this idea guys, I'd like to participate 🤩

[@ReveliaJ]

I thought of a big fish pirate putting coin in a candybar machine, but buying sardines or smth, dead men

[@artronartmusic4266]

Pirates of the Caribbean. Dead men tell no tales.😁😁😁

[@interlock2.076]

This is really cool how you are using the sound and make a really good animation with it.

[@muimotion]

I would definitely be up for joining in the future!:D I've been working in the animation industry for over 15 years, so i'd love to do a collab like this and see the wonderful results one can get!

[@Notepad_TV]

Wow! Superb! You're amazing, Olof.

[@olehboshkov5969]

Always charming to observe masters at their craft! Keep it up guys :)

[@ArnavChan]

[@agyab_cg]

[@Benboy1980]

[@sidharthaburagohain1475]

Would love to bea a participant in the future

[@khappigaming1784]

Perfect as always ❤

[@donpayne1040]

When I started animation, the other week, THIS "turning sound to animation" was where I found myself starting from, too. I'd listen to a load of sample heavy ninja tunes type trip hop and take note which track and time. The areas of particular interest tended to at the beginning and end of each track where there was a sense of transition and texture. This approach inspired every single part, even down to added sound effects - it was almost sonic story boarding. Nice work dude.

[@kenmillionx]

So great to watch 👍👍😊😊

[@coffeelizard7476]

I pictured inside a ship lower deck with the camera slanted upwards with a turtle/lizard pirate with a cane walking into the sharp light beam showing his face than his walking cane being unlocked and turned into a gun pointing it at the viewer, as the camera rattles back where a thick metal scope got knocked over simultaneously as he cockes the weapon about to shoot viewer/ you'd see part of a shoulder and arm of another character here

[@J.KINGTOONZ]

Looks amazing man!

[@okechukwunonike8610]

this is really cool but I actually pictured same thing she said. I heard a shovel too

[@PandekiStudio]

Well turned it out so good!! ❤

[@hellovidar]

Love this, as with all your videos. I would be honoured to be a part of your future challenges. From a fellow Swedish animator.

[@benito9830]

Cool ❤❤❤

[@jesamegbe1579]

This is a great idea 💡.. Looking forward to more episodes

[@timbridger4681]

This is very very good! Thank you!

[@quentinmorales]

Why not make it open to anyone willing to try by providing in advance the sound? I would love to join :)

[@The.Sky.Driver]

As a sound designer, I approve.

[@KGSMASH]

[@vitorribeiro2002]

[@KlasikComics]

I admire your animation works Olof..and you inspire me a lot just so you know

[@kushalsherpa2563]

[@user-wx4hz4iv8h]

Там есть артефакт где рукав

[@SkyeBoredom]

Funfact, animators is always good at drawing hands!

[@CarlosFerreira-kaiko]

Didn't see the person laying down on the floor at the first time, so I really think it needs another camera angle at the end. Other than that, I like the mixing media 3d and 2d

[@OlofStorm]

Thanks!

[@mysteryinhistory186]

You can ask indian animator /youtuber R.G. Bucket list for next episode

[@TheBoyanimator01]

[@alexmiller8177]

[@mjjanni5605]

[@ANIME-ir6ku]

Animation industry is going to become 70-80 billion dollar industry

[@crack.animations]

I think a guy just sitted in a terban. Alone talking to a cat and the drop is the empty cup as the cat moves around the table ,,thats what slapped me 😢 its lame bt well

[@tusunrobert]

Can you make a Full Tutorial of Camera Mapping 3d whit 2d image

[@MyWayStudios-ty9wt]

What type of drawing tablet do you use please 🙏

[@lahazarika51]

I would also like to make a short clip of this challenge

[@BonafidexDopeness]

I’m wondering how long the animation took to create

[@user-vd1sw4vg2i]

Which software do you think is the best for 2Danimation?

[@OlofStorm]

I don't think it matters that much. The main task is to draw. But I think CSP has a lot of good tools. It's also good for painting so it covers a wide range of tasks. I use Photoshop because it's great to draw in and works seamlessly with After effects. It lacks some animation features that could have been nice. But nothing that holds me back. I have not tried tv paint but that is supposed to be good too.

[@edengraphicpen9790]

The background does not match the concept it would have being great if part of robots hanging of the wall, love you work sir

[@Gospelplaya1000]

You should have jazza and drawfee

[@user-anonymous-01234]

I have a question. Do you animate on blank video layers, or do you just have dozens of layers? Like one layer for each frame?

[@OlofStorm]

I use both. You can even combine them in a video group 👍

[@user-anonymous-01234]

@@OlofStorm I didn't see you reply, sorry. I wanted advice because when I tried to animate in video layers, I don't know what to do if I need a drawing to last for 2-3 frames and not have to draw identical image twice. The alternative I knew was to just use one layer for each frame and I can adjust the frame length individually, but after there being so many layers, it gets confusing.

[@OlofStorm]

@@user-anonymous-01234 so as I mentioned you can combine them, so if you need a drawing for a few frames you can use a normal layer and then video layers if you know you need drawings for every frame. They can even sit in the same video group which keeps it tidy on the timeline.

[@OlofStorm]

@@user-anonymous-01234 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnmap5aQn7mGgqMsi=IW8qBs43oqXTxH9b Here is a video going over it all.

[@user-anonymous-01234]

@@OlofStorm Thank you for answering my question :) I will go watch the other video.

[@ninjagogetta]

i wanna join

[@HDTrailersAnime]

Can I be a part of it ..I do animation as well

[@xhekkhar]

Hi bro as you are an Animator, can you please tell me which animation software does he is operating and sketching in this video?

[@clonkex]

@@xhekkhar He's drawing in Photoshop and the 3D software is Cinema 4D (although I'd recommend Blender as it's free and extremely good). I don't know if he assembles the final animation with Photoshop (I doubt it supports exporting with sound) but once you've drawn your images you've already done the hard part.

[@xhekkhar]

@@clonkex Thank You so much Brother, its very helpful. God Bless You

[@ggavengers9808]

I want to make my cartoon Show and put it on Hulu.
