I love how much effort he put into the acting and even costuming lmao. It might have looked a bit goofy by itself, but it sure paid off well for the game!
one of my favorite rotoscopes in the entire game would probably be the possessed convulsing father john and father john looking behind him to see the demon. watching the rotoscopes next to the OG clips feels so satisfying
Damn, the gunshot part looks amazing! He really acted pretty nice there, i love how you can clearly see his arms go limp after the first shot in the head, when you're acting these types of scenes you need to keep a track on everything your body is doing to make it look natural and believable, Airdorf did a great job!
Really impressive. This game did a fantastic job of minimalist horror and the unnerving fluidity of rotoscoping for these cut scenes stood out tremendously against the rigid Atari-esque sprites. I seriously appreciate the work that went into showcasing such creativity!
What makes Faith so good, is that it feels like it belongs to the 1990s...and yet you know if it did, it would be as popular as the retro classics. It feels like a masterpiece that just didn't happen in the correct point of time.
Bro got springlocked at 1:50 D: But no seriously, the tracing from a human reference is what made the game so terifying I feel- besides the amazing atmosphere and build up! Amazing
I imagine it would've been easier to just trace the actual collar part instead of adding it in-post and struggling to keep it aligned with the neck, whereas Amy's hair could be added in post easily as long as you can imagine how that hair would realistically move. In the shot where Airdorf/Amy removes the cloth from their heads, I think he even traced over the bits of hair that were lifted up from his own head after pulling it off, so that's about as close to accurately tracing his hair for Amy as you'll get.
I love how he transitions from looking like he’s reluctantly there for a paycheck to making sure he’s earned every penny by transforming into something else entirely, and then back. What a professional.
The standing up and casually walking away parts are so relatable lol. The concept of filming your own reference videos is always awkward but so worth it for these great animations!!
I love how even after the finished animation ended he was still doing the reference on some of them which is pretty smart to do which means that he could make the cutscene/animation however long he wanted.
I'm not sure you know what rotoscoping is, but it's basically that someone acts out the action, then someone draws over, and they make a cutscene out of it
I'm from MI and a local Post-Rock band used some footage from clips of your game in their backing video and it was so greatly used and I think I was the only one in the crowd who knew what they were from. Great work. This game is one of my favorites.
I think to think that Amy at 0:22 just walked in from the side like he does in the video and hid under the bed right before pulling herself up and John was just really confused the whole time.
I love it when people find creative ways to make assets for there game, like in dead cells: pixelated 3d models, or in doom, where they photoscanned in real life toys and clay models
ah yes, making references. quite possibly the most hilarious thing to watch back of oneself. I always feel so embarrassed watching mine back but they really are worth it :')
I'm gonna let you in on a little secret, I'm aspiring to become an animator. I know - I know. Terrible time to do it. But seeing you be so willing to show off your reference videos really inspires me and reminds me that this is something a LOT of animators do. So thanks mang, for doing a service to people you don't even know most likely halfway across the world. You're making an impact.
I've never thought that someone with a crayon could ever feel so menacing 😂 I hope you enjoyed doing this references, is actually a good idea also easier than wasting time in Pinterest looking for a pose for drawing. Thank you ❤
FAITH was one of the most unique, terrifying, and awesome games I've played in a long time. The game design and cutscenes were all so striking and beautiful in their own way, and the use of rotoscope was such a cool idea. It's neat to see the work behind it all!
Watching the creator of Faith menacingly hold a crayon like he is gonna stab me with it is so funny to me.
pretty sure that’s a sharpie, but I love this man lol :)
I mean he stabs himself in the eye with it
mate that’s a pencil
lads thats clearly a marker what are you guys on about
What do you mean it's clearly a tiny jar of cookies.
I love that he did his own references but I'm living for the awkward walk back to the camera that he left in
Not only were they references, it was rotoscoped.
It's kinda cute when he wears his little priest collar

even if youre not rotoscoping, acting something out and using it as a reference is good practice for any animator
on video - airdorf games, not me
It's from the games files
That's true. I act all the scenes I animate and it helps me achieve a good flow of battle and interactions
Even just regular drawing too- I have so many random pictures of myself to use a pose references lmao
No, that’s cheating
i always admire people who can do their own references for animations. ill be home alone and get too embarrassed to do it 😭
I think that's a sign of you being paranoid.
(I myself I'm paranoid)
its a highly reccomended thing to do when you are an animator yourself
Nobody looks at it, and you can change end result in any way, don't be embarrased, most people will not feel crigy about it.
@@namefamily2748 and if people feel cringe about you "being happy". i'm sorry but you are not the wrong one here
same D:
Rotoscoping is bloody fire. It really gives animation these subtle motions and realistic sense of weight, it's so good.
What makes Faith so good, is that it feels like it belongs to the 1990s...and yet you know if it did, it would be as popular as the retro classics. It feels like a masterpiece that just didn't happen in the correct point of time.
Would it be possible to do rotoscoping on an old console like that?
@subzu2733 From what I remember, a chunk of old games used rotoscoping for cutscenes. Take 1992 Mortal Kombat, for example.
@Lambent_Omega oh i didn't know that, thats pretty cool
It feels like a game I would have played on my family's old Atari, it's such a unique game!
The 90s??? Lol You must be young. This game is using Atari aesthetics which would be the late 70s early 80s.

Its funny how one of them got into costume for some of john’s rotoscoping, but they didn’t use a wig for amy’s hair
I imagine it would've been easier to just trace the actual collar part instead of adding it in-post and struggling to keep it aligned with the neck, whereas Amy's hair could be added in post easily as long as you can imagine how that hair would realistically move. In the shot where Airdorf/Amy removes the cloth from their heads, I think he even traced over the bits of hair that were lifted up from his own head after pulling it off, so that's about as close to accurately tracing his hair for Amy as you'll get.
