How much did all the animation software cost ?
SPOT WHAT BBC HASN'T DONE:
Turn Big Finish audios into animations? No.
Turn Big Finish audio series into live action series? No.
Capitalised on the popularity of characters like the 8th Doctor, War Doctor, UNIT or others being given audio series at Big Finish? No.
Engaging fan creators, like good ole Josh Snares, to employ them to create what they have proven can be popular with fellow fans? No and Yes.
And YET fans do the above? Am I the only one who sees SO MUCH potential spin off or utilizing of the Doctor Who mythos being wasted?
There's more than the 10th Doctor... just saying.
@@The_Blue_Otaku Hard to tell, since it's all subscription based!
Why haven't you animated Marco Polo and the wheel in space missing episodes
You should try one of the big finish lost stories.
An animation for Zagreus would be amazing
"The Brink of Death" is a good choice. I have seen a number animations of 6's regeneration scene on UA-cam and it would be fun to see fully animated version of that adventure.
In answer to your question of "what would YOU animate?": the first thing that jumped to mind was Storm Warning, the first 8th Doctor audio from Big Finish. Heck, all of McGann's audios, why not.
Love that!
I might try animating "The Wrong Woman" I've always wanted to and your animation has really inspired me!
Ooh! That’d be good!
I, Davros is the stody I'd most want to see animated. Its a fantastic exploration of Davros' character, an amazing lead up to Genesis of the Daleks, and could be enjoyed by everyone given that the audiodrama is free on Spotify.
A story I'd like to see animated (maybe even animated myself a few years down the line if I get a bit of free time / become a competent animator) is The Elite, a fifth doctor audio. I've recently got into Big Finish, and the Elite is one of my favorite stories I've listened to so far.
Having Spare Parts animated would be a dream come true. My all time favourite Doctor Who story.
Josh Snares - 'I can't draw'
Josh Snares: Creates a quality, hour long Dr. Who animation.
BBC: 👀
I'd love to see "Judoon In Chains" animated
I want to see The Highlanders animated. I could never do this myself as a fan animation, though, since I don’t have the skills or the time.
Congrats on the recognition from BF and DWM! I really hope you do a sequel.
This is so cool! I’ll have to check it out here soon. If I could animate an episode I wouldn’t mind taking a stab at a missing episode. Maybe space pirates to try and up the budget from the tv production, but that’s the charm of it of course. Either that or a 6th Doctor big finish because other than 2, 6 is a favorite of mine.
"future animations"... i am excited :D. litterally making animated clips for fearmonger right now for my next review. don't know if i would be going forward with this idea if it wasn't for your animation so thank you.
woah i'm just scrolling down in the comments... wow lots of people wanting to do animations... cool
Superbly done Josh! And great to see this getting some well deserved recognition in an official capacity.
If I myself were ever so bold as to undertake an animation, I’d definitely go for one of the ninth Doctor adventures, as those usually have small casts and limited locations. It would be a toss up between either ‘Monsters in Metropolis’ or ‘Fond Farewell.’
LOL I new you'd mention Web of Fear..Loved the animation and how you did it! Might have a go myself and re do episode 3 of WoF!
I have to say that your animation was what made me decide to buy a Big Finish audio to experience it. I'm grateful that you've spent this time and energy to create something and share it with the fans.
I watched it (in sync with the BF audio),and absolutely loved it :)
I also drew attention to your animation via posting on several fan forums.
It was excellent work,and I can't commend you enough!
I actually drew an intake of breath just now when you announced the title of your next project. A landmark BigFinish release deserves a landmark animation from you :)
(Have you contacted Colin Baker? He's bound to offer support!)
Thank you!
The Ninth Doctor Adventures featuring Christopher Eccleston would be marvellous to animate
I’d 100% animate Big Finish. Whilst I’m not too keen on Out of Time 1, it’s the perfect choice for a first animation. I think maybe something from the Tenth Doctor Adventures would be good (Vol 3 preferably)
And yet if he up loads with with sound he'd get a copyright strike by the same company that has FAILED to create animation/live action versions of Big Finish.
This is promoting Doctor Who to not only fans but viewers completely new to Doctor Who.
It also demonstrates how successful this would be if done by the BBC and Big Finish.
@@davidaston5773 yeah I know, though I wouldn’t say it’s aimed at people new to Doctor Who
@@NotAgnor But it can be. You know seeing something interesting and then becoming a fan.
If Josh uploaded "Out of Time" with sound the BBC instead of embracing it - would strike it down.
It is a sad state of affairs when fans are producing more Doctor Who related content that, in many cases, is better than the official product.
If you showed "Out of Time" to members of the public they'd think it WAS official.
@@davidaston5773 I never said anything about the audio or copyright, I think you’re replying to the wrong comment
Inspiring work, you’ve done a brilliant job Josh, depending on what they do when they get round to releasing Season 2 as a boxset, I’d love to try animating something like The Crusade.
Great work !! Looking forward to syncing them up and experiencing this
The Big Finish audios I’d love to see fan animated are The Sontaran’s (the First Doctor’s encounter with title monster’s alongside Steven and Sara Kingdom (it was right after their terrible Christmas adventure in Silent Film Era Hollywood, so their were no cliffhangers that set in stone what would happen next)), and Home Truths (also a Doctor, Steven and Sara Kingdom adventure, this time in an old seemingly haunted house in an indeterminate future).
The entire production looks so professional. Well done!
I think having some Time War stories animated would be pretty great. I can imagine those would need a MASSIVE amount of work though.
I love your work Josh, really great stuff my man. I have attempted the whole animation thing but discovered that doing them in gmod is the best thing for me right now. I did make a mini episode of the doctor leaving gallifrey and have some other episodes in early stages but yeah. Keep doing what your doing and keep inspiring
Would love animations of Wirrn: Race Memory & The Rani Reaps the Whirlwind ✨
I'd love to see some of Big Finish's stories get this treatment. 'Jubilee', 'Storm Warning', '...ish', 'Night Thoughts', 'Spare Parts' the list goes on.
So neat - he really makes it feel like *anyone* could try this and make something they'd be happy with!
This is all so fascinating! Thank you for taking us on this journey Josh.
Amazing! I animated a couple of particular scenes from Big Finish stories last year in Blender, but not done a full story yet. People have been asking me to, though, and your animation just gives me the motivation to want to do it even more! Just imagine how cool it would be if we had animated versions of each story.
I dunno when I'll do my next animated Big Finish scene, but I am working on an animated Cult of Skaro series at the moment, which will show their origins, but I may do some more Big Finish animations after that's finished later this year. I really do need to learn how to model characters, though, I can only do Daleks as characters so far. But I'm gonna try anyway. 😅
I animated the "goodbye susan" scene in blender with lego, this makes me think its possible to try and recreate a big finish adventure! - Subbed btw, great work!!
Great video!! This was really fun to see how it was put together, fair play this was actually really insightful!
Amazing work! Congrats on the final product!
Thank you! Your tutorials helped so much 💕
Thank you for your work on Dr Who. It is wonderful and talented.
Really interesting to hear about the behind the scenes for this. I’ve been thinking of trying to learn Adobe character animator myself (not for anything as big as this just an animated avatar in my videos) but, like you, don’t consider myself able to draw so haven’t gotten around to it.
That was a wonderful video and I am so happy your endeavours turned out with such a positive response! Wishing all the luck for future ones!
For someone who barely passed Introduction to CGI, you've certainly done far better than I ever could have. I couldn't even make my poorly Maya created maggot (Yes, it was based off The Green Death) move properly. As of what I would create if I were to animate anything Doctor Who related, I've definitely had plans. Plans that I usually get distracted by another plan. One was of a better telesnap reconstruction of The Underwater Menace. Another was of certain scenes from The Juggernauts, Max Warp, The Chimes of Midnight and Scherzo. Problem being I suck at... well, the majority of things that go into an animation.
It is always fun watching what you create and it is incredibly inspiring. Best of luck with The Brink of Death animation!
And yes, The Web of Fear Episode 3 deserves to be ragged on. I mean, those Yeti look awful!
Great video Josh, Super insightful in seeing your creative process and how it was all put together! Looking forward to the next project!! :)
While I haven't gotten around to watching the full animation with or without audio, if you're looking for another one might I suggest "Out of Time 3: Wink" with 10, 6 and the Weeping Angels as something that has a mostly static villain as well as scenes that would be just a white background.
Hey Josh, nice to see you back. The animation was dandy and worked great with the Big Finish audio. Looking forward to what projects you come up with next!
Brilliant work Josh ❤❤
Great effort and superb dedication to finish the whole thing. I animated the first episode of the Pescatons about 12 years ago and somehow the BBC never took it down!
It's extremely time consuming even putting one scene together, so it's amazing work on your behalf. Keep it up. I love your videos
I assume you aren't going to do ALL of the Big Finish audios as animations, but I will settle for the entire eight Doctor run.
Chop chop.
Wow, what a great job. I like the animation of the Big Finish Audio.
Fantastic work as always josh I really do like the animation you've done it looks great! , also if I had to animate one story I'd probably go with the space pirates since not much is left of it but who knows maybe one day I might have a go at animation
Great video Josh!
Great to see how the whole thing was made! :)
If I could do an animation I'd either adapt one of my comic ideas or just do the missing episodes of Dalek Master plan! xD
Brilliant work Josh. I'm working on something with your aforementioned fellow countryman at the moment too. If I could animate anything, it'd be Spare Parts for sure, followed by The Mutant Phase.
13:21 I would do "Circular Time", "Exhaust Supplies", and "The Daleks Masterplan"
I thoroughly adored your animation.
Thank you :)
Animation is the perfect medium for Doctor Who. I wouldn't be disappointed at all if it shifted completely to an animated format. I think it would potentially grow the audience. Plus, it would make the franchise more consistent, as comics and computer games etc. could all use the same designs.
I think working on one of the free releases like The Ratings War with the Sixth Doctor and Beep the Meep would be cool. Or one of rhe other free releases as they are usually a single or short episode with a few characters. It'd be really interesting to try and make it look like 80s DW - maybe over lit and slightly 80s glam
I would do the Daleks master plan episode with the Meddling Monk since he's my favorite villain on the show
Can I just say how amazing this. Incredible achievement.
If I could animate a Big Finish story I'd love to do The Rani Elite. I'd love to see the second Rani on screen.
Great video Josh! In my opinion you look way better on camera without the bright colored key light behind you. Keep up the great content on UA-cam. I'm glad you are following your passions.
Basically you started this project around the time when I got into Doctor Who (June 1, 2020).
Wow... that messes with my perception of time.
I’m a bit late and I don’t even own Out Of Time (or listen to Big Finish that often) but this is really inspiring
hopefully my friend Will will receive enough money to do that Smugglers animation
I would love to see animation on The Unbound Range, The Lost Stories & the Novel Adaptation in a smooth Pencil sketch design. Bit cartoony but with a hint of seriousness.
This makes me want to start own project immediately.
By the way, this is absolutely stunning.
I have my own Fourth Doctor fan fiction adventures which are entirely written by me. There are seventeen stories so far, I think, including a Dalek Vs. Xenomorph standalone story (being the only tale not to feature the Fourth Doctor). I would probably animate one of my own tales if I could. I'd love to do that sometime. Or maybe I'll just write a story specifically for animation starring the Fourth.
Good animation great job
I hope big finish animations gets more popular.
Amazing stuff can't wait for brink of death as well! If animate some of the edas. Right length and mcganm deserves more visual love !
Thank you for the content Josh…..Right.. I love WHO, drawing and have some experience with photoshop….I’m seriously thinking of doing episode 3 web of fear…..
Absolm Daak: Dalek Killer ... so feels this could also be a spinoff animated series
Excellent video
Oh I'd animate Palindrome from the 8th Doctor Time War box set. I adore that story, would love to be able to watch it too
Inspirational ⭐⭐
MY BOY JOSH, THE FIRST VIEWER. Great animation man.
i would love to animate some of the 8th doctor comic strip, or possibly big finish audio spare parts
Oh my god if you do that Colin story I'll loose my head lol what a great choice !
Youn know what I like about you, you're those people who say they're rubbish at something and can't do something(whether you were joking about it) but when they actually do it they're actually good at it. Unlike those, 'look at me! I'm a popular UA-camr with 20k, pride, pride, boast, boast, I can do anything." It does make you seem humble and modest.
I'm considering animating The Scorchies since I recently bought that in a sale and have listened to it about 5 times because its such a fun small scale story. One set, 90% of the characters are puppets and not even humanoids and one is literally called Cool Cat and says the line "Oh that's cool as milk that is." A fun romp with musicals. The only reason I want to animate it is because of you and everyone else who does fan animations on UA-cam. It's inspiring stuff so Thank You once more for the wonderful release of Out of Time Animated.
A good choice! I remember liking that one a lot. Don’t remember much of it now though, been too long!
@@JoshSnares It's one of those episodes that makes me really wish for a Doctor Who episode that is just a musical episode. It sounds really silly but I really enjoy silly elements that the show brings and a musical episode would just be really entertaining. (A musical episode where the musical is the villain).
Still need to get hold of the audio so I can watch it properly but the animation itself is very well done! If you were going to do some missing episodes I'd love to see The Crusade since the BBC have all but said that they're never going to do an official animation due to the large number of sets and costumes involved. I guess it would be a significantly more complicated project than this but it would be really cool to finally have a more or less completed Season 2!
If you ever did Web of Fear 3 I would burn it to a Bluray by backing up my official release and reprinting it with your episode instead 😅
Well if you can do that Josh then surely the BBC can animate the entire missing episodes in a similar way on a cheap budget?
I think some of McCoy's audios deserve animating because I think they need visuals to get more out of McCoy's Doctor. I don't believe he got the best Big Finish stories anyway, but his Doctor does suffer from not being seen. "Spare Parts" would be cool too.
thats sick, i was just listening to out of time at work before writing this comment. and like others are saying, zagreus would be awesome
If I had to animate any doctor who episode it would big finishes patient zero
You are stupidly talented. Never change Mr Snares!
love u crispy 💕
You're great.
this is so cool, the animation style is awesome. are you going to comic-con this weekend?
G'day from Australia Josh, I loved your animation and watched it with my big finish audio playing. Superb quality and obvious love for your craft . Bravo kid , keep em coming ..... I was thinking 'Masterful' as an option if you are taking requests 😂
Id love to see you do an entirely original animation.
I write myself , should you ever consider a collaboration with anybody, please HMU for chat. I have got literally hundreds of original story's, ideas, concepts for the Doctor Who universe I'd be happy to share with you .
This vid has inspired me to try and get my Doctor Who story animated. Hopefully I can because I’m like you and can’t draw. Writing however like having a sonic. I would love to see my story of the 15th Doctor animated.
If I could see animated the missing ep of Marco Polo that would be Fantastic!
It's an interesting challenge; if I had the means and the freedom, what would I make? Probably a massive Master story, with Roger Delgado's Master along with a lesser used badie like the Rutans, Fendahlians or Great Vampires. Not sure which Doctor I would use. Pertwee seem obvious.
If I ever decide to animate one of Doctor Who's audios I would rather animate one of the audios where they explain how did Sylvester McCoy's Doctor let Ace go.
Enjoyed the video, although all the different animation software programmes mean mince to me. Animated episode looks good too and interesting to see how you get on with the sixth Doctor's costume.
If I had the ability and patience I would animate the 13th Doctor episodes, I do think Adele would have given a better portrayal and there are some very good female impressionists out there that could redo the dialogue
'I can't and I won't animate 100s of Doctor Who stories, it's a lot of work for one person.' Have faith in yourself, Josh, don't sell yourself short. ;)
Very well done on this one, though, and thanks for making a video like this.
I am not sure on an episode, although The Pescatons comes to mind....but I am an Action Figure guy. I would love to see animations done in a stop motion- Robot Chicken way with Character Options Action Figures and Accessories. Doing it myself is far out of my wheel house, but to see these efforts would be great. Thank you for all you do!
please do light at the end please
You’re insane Davros.......Oops wrong area. You’re insane Mr snares Totally insane
If I tell you what you gonna do in the future .............All the pubs in Australia will close
Good animation .........really good animation
you get Tom and David correct in the facial animations. 😍
This is a great walk through. Did you edit each scene in its own sequence or did you do the whole hour in one massive sequence?
One massive sequence!
Oh, did you see those Marco Polo scenes I animated? It was meant to be a full animation, but I just kinda dropped it
And yeah animation software is real tricky. I basically tried to just skip it for that
I admit I haven't watched the Out of Time animation yet, but I intend to see it soon
Don't worry about rigging, even in Macra Terror, the best quality animation, they couldn't animate the dancers in one of the first shots
Wow
It was a great anninmation you did a great job
Will you ever release the making off galaxy 4 video
It's a guilty pleasure of mine
Maybe one day!
@@JoshSnares shame you wasn't a fan of the anninmation
dalek master plan
Hey Josh would you ever an doctor who animated project for the audiobooks or some of the books
Probably not, the audio books can go up to 10 hours!
