Angela Anaconda: 25th Anniversary Review
Переглядів 1984 місяці тому
In the cracks of cartoon history, there are shows we may or may not remember, yet some stood out so much that it was hard to truly forget about them, and one of those shows, is Angela Anaconda, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary today. Note: As for why the video was darker than my other videos, I has gotten LumaFusion updated, and the video looked brighter than it actually was, so I dimm...
The Animator’s Survival Kit Redux

One year ago, I made the first ever video to review The Animator’s Survival Kit Animated, the DVD box set of the late Richard Williams’ masterclasses filmed at Blue Sky Studio.

Return of the Frame Rate Conversion Formula
Переглядів 507 місяців тому
Back in January, I uploaded a video showcasing a formula I developed to help people convert frame rates without altering the timing. This can be used to make more authentic Chaplin-like animations, or used to get the timing off a reference video that isn’t 24 frames per second.

    Since your using the traditional Acme peg bar style, what paper punch did you use? or should I opt for round hole punch and peg bar instead? just starting planning for a traditional animation desk so any advice can help ❤

    • @dillonwright13
      @dillonwright13 Місяць тому

      I don’t own a paper punch for the ACME holes at the moment, since the ones on the Chromacolour website is around $1000. However, if you buy the portable animation desks on Chromacolour, it comes with a plexiglass disc that you can replace the peg bar with, and they have an option for a 2-hole peg bar, but you’d have to look for a customizable 2-hole hole punch, which luckily can be found at places like Goodwill. However, I haven’t tested to see if any other brand of these replaceable peg bars work on the Chromacolour discs yet.

That said, there’re actually 5 assignments in the book, 3 of them have you animate, one of them having you character design, and one of them have you storyboard.

      @@CamMations I would, but I’m not sure how the whole beta testing thing works. Right now, I’m just hoping someone will post videos about their use of the beta version, and that somehow the beta testing won’t be as lengthy as Keiwan is making it sound like. Update: I just read that installing beta apps on devices that have the full version already can result in data loss, and I can’t bare to lose the projects I worked on, or am working on currently. Update 2: I just submitted the form upon discovering the beta app will be a separate app from the regular app, so I won’t have to worry about my projects being corrupted. Now I just hope that I get selected.

  • @CamMations

    I feel like one of the biggest things people get wrong about animation is that the frame rate drops when something is animated on 2s or 3s. It’s not. There is a difference between frames per second and drawings per second. Drawing on twos is not the same as drawing at 12 fps. The fps is still 24, but the amount of drawings within those 24 frames is what is actually changing. With that said, I don’t really consistently animate on twos, I like using a combination of ones, twos, and threes for movements to make em more dynamic. Of course, that’s just preference on my end. Is there a preferred method for how you animate?

    • @dillonwright13
