3D modeler here: we rig models with bones (think an articulated doll) and then pose them to animate. This is automatically interpolated by the game engine. The reason we do this is for flexibility. Here’s some examples:
- some games have a walking animation and a running animation, and code the game to mix between the two depending on how far you push the joystick
- going in and out of animations is easier. If you move a character left or right, you can interpolate between the two motions
- if you animate a character doing something like picking something up, you can make the animation additive so that the animation will work no matter whether the character is sitting, standing, running etc. you can also multiply variables so if they pick up a large object the animation will scale
- running up and down a slope may require telling the computer to lift the feet up higher or lower than normal
- frame rate changes
So basically, flexibility is the reason! In games where you can do almost anything, you can never truly guess everything a player will do or every angle they’ll look from. So instead, animations are made to be scalable and additive for that reason. The position and rotation of bones is recorded in hard numbers. In fact, there’s a lot more math involved than you’d think. It’s not any harder or easier than 2D hand animation, just different, with different requirements (games need to run at 60fps so players can have appropriate time to react and also not get motion sick).
Some stylized games (genshin, honkai, guilty gear) will have capped frame rates on their animations. But that’s an illusion. The game still runs at 60fps, but they take more care to manually cap the frames of character animations to have that level of control and intent you talked about.
Sorry about the ramblings, I hope they made sense at all! Math is really the name of the game here, but it’s a tool like any other that requires skill and intent
Seriously, super interesting read. Thanks!
Comment hall of fame🎉
yes inject that knowledge STRAIGHT into my brain
@@whoisezekiel2099: ow
Thank you for explaining, I seriously can't believe people dumb down all the work you do to pressing a button and applying it to AN INTIERLY DIFFERENT MEDIUM which is 2d animation, thanks for the knowledge
Not sure if anyone's gonna see this on an old video, but game developer here
Game animations do have a base frame rate (usually 30 fps, unless it's an Arc Sys case) but the game engine sees the seconds rather than the frames. You can animate a 60 frame animation at 30 fps, but the game engine will see "This animation is 2 seconds" and show it at the game's current frame rate. I've both made my own games (small indie prototype projects, but they're in 3D) and I've made the Master Form mod for KH3, and the frame rate of KH3's (and my own) animations are 30 fps (a lot of times, individual animation files will have a setting to actually set the animation frame rate and interpolation will take over if needed, so you got that part right). Please keep in mind that this is the standpoint from a 3D dev, not 2D
finally a answer thank you
@@_RETR01 Too bad no one's gonna see this, though (except you, clearly)
Thanks for the info
For 2D, there are polygonal games that animate more or less the same as 3D games, but pixel animation is nowhere close.
First, you gotta differentiate between the frames and the frame rates. Mario's run cycle in Super Mario Bros 2 animates very quickly, but it consists of 2 frames looping. Cuphead was made with traditional cel animation, mostly on 2s, but in game those poses don't necessarily run at 12fps.
Then you have things like fighting games that are all over the place. A jump kick could consist of a single pose, but it's designed to seamlessly transition into other animations such as a jump block or a landing. Combos or special moves in the same game could easily have 24 frames.
I guess a good baseline is a modern pixel platformer will usually have 6-12 frames per animation, but those animations could play anywhere from 6 to 60fps depending on the effect the animator is going for.
This is accurate. (also a game developer (sort of...) )
I honestly _still_ don't get how people can look at interpolated 60 fps footage of something made for between 12 to 24 and think it looks better with the weird, smooth movement between poses that hold for just a LITTLE too long and think that it looks good. It looks more noticeably staggered to me, and that's before even considering artistic intent.
Really it'll only look good if the media in question was made for interpolation.
Not poor taste, broke taste
I agree, but as a gamer I agree.
It gets even worse when you add words onto the frames, they get all smudged...and sad.
I feel as interpreted videos have no personality anymore once they do it.

-almostsweetangel
Gameplay animator here, we animate at 30 and let engines interpolate, and sometimes it breaks animations so we add notifiers to flag parts to turn off interpolation
No idea such function existed.
Also a game animator here: This is highly contextual and varies from production to production.
For example: I worked at EA in their mo-cap department and we processed the data at 60 FPS and actually down-sampled it to 30.
Now, I'm working on a game doing stepped animation at 60 FPS.

wonder how interpolated paper and cardboard would look like
Yea same here
Yea
I mean, the AI is designed for live action, so it would technically work on this. Idk how good it would look but it *technically* would work.
Do it.
i prefer not to try it
The problem with people who like interpolation is basically the same with AI "artists": they see art as the means to an end.
It's not. Art has meaning, and if it's made a certain way, that means that the creator of said art wanted their message to be like that. It's not just a thing that you see and go "wow that looks cool" it's a way of expression, be it by creating worlds, illustrating emotions or simply sketching something, you're expressing yourself and your world.
Subscribers of Aestheticism would disagree with you. Sometimes you do just want something that pleases the eye, for me the meaning of something, be it art or film, is a nice bonus after the experience itself.
yes.
i once drew questionable things out of small dose of rage, it's not very bad, but everyone just focus on the "bad".
I have agreements on both sides. On one hand, the process of creating art is very special and I think ruining artistic intent will usually take away a part of your experience as a viewer. But, if you really like it more, I don't see a problem with that. My real issue is with everyone being rude and yelling that his is the definite future and all other ways are bad.
@@CoalOres I do want stuff that pleases the eye, and that's why I hate AI "art". I've looked at enough of those and tried it myself long enough to say that 99.99% of its output is bad in at least one detail and trying to get something decent out of it feels like haggling with a slot machine. Also those AI models obviously trend towards the average image you can see on the internet so if you want to produce something with it that's significantly different or actually creative the thing will fight you at every corner. It's great for stock photos and instagram model tier slop but there's already enough of those for many lifetimes. AI art is like an artist who mastered the most advanced techniques but skipped all the basic lessons and I can see that even as a non-artist.
@@SaHaRaSquad Yeah, I would say 99.9% is accurate. But you can (and should) cherry pick - generate a batch of 1000, cherry pick the best one, and suddenly you probably have one that's actually good. Ask for something simple, concept art for instance, without many details and I'd say the success rate is 1/10.
You can also use inpainting to fix local errors without redoing the whole thing. You can adjust parameters like lowering the CFG scale for far more variance (I find this adds imperfections to skin for instance, which gives people a less plastic look), in fact I very rarely see people doing this.
And then there's the fact that even bad/flawed results look good and interesting, it might be a bad artist but it's a hell of a lot better than me I'll tell you that (as you would expect for something that has absorbed the collective work of billions).
I read LPs as LPS and got really confused. Ah yes, Littlest Pet Shop, the most controversial and widely debated example of low frame animation.

Invalidated, NEXT OPINION PLEASE
What's up Checkmark
Anyone who says that animators are “lazy” for not animating in 60fps have no idea what they’re talking about. 60fps would almost triple the budget and time it would take to make ANYTHING animated. If the industry as a whole decided to only start animating in 60 from now on, the animation industry would cease to exist. Companies would refuse to fund new shows or movies because it would be too expensive
Yeah, they seem to want to live in a world where animated movies are released years apart and all animation UA-camrs move to onlyfans to make back the money they missed for having to spend a year making a 3 min video
Animatics with 1-12 frames a second are proof enough that creativity and enjoyment isn't tied to frame rate
i animated my first-ever short film in 60fps because i was convinced it would look so much better than 24, without even slightly considering how much harder that would be
wow that was an awful decision on my end
yeah, animating in 60 fps is hell
People who think animators are lazy either under-estimate how hard animating is or expect animators to work 24/7 and have no life outside of the animation program

With 3D game animation, it’s actually a set of keyframes that are interpolated between. It doesn’t truly interpolate frames, it interpolates the position and renders the new frames.

Almost entirely unrelated comment but one thing I love about vinyl records is not that the sound quality is better (because it isn’t). But there is something so wonderful about physically owning the album, being able to watch the needle drop and hear the gentle hiss over the dense plate. It’s so wonderful knowing that you’ve financially endorsed an artist you like and knowing you can actually pick up the album. Like how fricking cool is that?! You can pick up your album!!!
While it doesn’t directly apply to animation, knowing the actual passion that went into a project (or at least hard work), adds to your enjoyment.
Of course this is entirely subjective.
Ps. Honestly I feel like I went entirely off topic here
It is better though, honestly any analog format of music is objectively better than digital because analog is a 1 for 1 recreation of the soundwaves of the original where as digital is only an approximation.
I love how these people argue that smooth = good and then like every animated movie is now animating on 2s sometimes even 3s, those people havent been proven wrong, they're points have been utterly OBLITERATED

Wasn’t there hecka mocap done for fight scenes in The Clone Wars but then they went back and fixed it to make it fit in with the rest of the animation? That would be kind of like using mocap as a tool (just like Noodle said lol)
@@RyandBurtson they do that for pretty much everything mo-cap from what I know. raw mo-cap data always has little twitches and bugs here and there, so for most big productions, even movie productions they do a manual pass over the whole thing
@@luminomancer5992 I used to think that it was raw data. Found out from Corridor Digital this exact thing.
i tried animating once or twice, and well ill wait for the 5 fps animation to become a thing so i can animate without losing my mind
I would love to see someone manage to find a stylistic use for the "vaseline" AI-irradiated art style. Perhaps on a glitchy or cosmically unnatural character, on a constant level just not looking right?
I suppose it'd be similar to the stylistic choices in rotoscoped animation, where you can leave flaws in on purpose for stylistic or comedic effect. Except, have the entire rest of the setting animated a normal way and just have a single character, animated in greenscreen and interpolated, then inserted into the otherwise normal environment. I think it sounds like a neat idea and fun to pull off, I'd love to invest time into any concept that manages something like that.

I love how you physically printed and glued each comment onto a little cutout instead of just overlaying them on screen. That’s commitment to the craft.
8:40 I have done some small amounts of 3D animation in the past, and basically how it works is: you set 2 poses with different timings and the computer smoothly moves that part of the model to the other part unless you tell it not to. This does sometimes create weird artifacts, however they’re usually pretty noticeable by the animators and don’t just blur out entire shots to the point of unreadability.

The king has spoken
well i as a small animator that feels like my final projects are fulfilling enough: i compleatly agree with you.
About videogame animations, I can give some input as an amateur dev, although I have no clue about AAA standard so ask someone else.
The tools I use are Blender and Unity (yeah I know, cringe) mostly, and both programs render an animation at 60 fps usually unless your computer is a potato or the project is very poorly optimized. I animate using key frames (the best way I can explain it is that the tools can save the location of certain parts of an object within 3D space at a certain point in time), interpolating the frames, and then tweaking the result by adding more key frames for individual actions (for example lifting a foot a bit higher during a kick for more energy in the motion) and/or directly manipulating the animation curves.
TLDR, 3D animators usually aren't animating frame-by-frame, we're animating pose-by-pose.
I assume that if the animation is going to be viewed at another frame rate (say an animated movie or a stylized videogame), you can set the program to render the animation at that frame rate and then adjust the animation accordingly, or make the animation from scratch using that render setting.
Videogames that use sprites (2D drawings) have to animate sprite-by-sprite, which is kinda like frame-by-frame only animations are are going to be triggered by script or player input, not the frames-per-second format a pen-and-paper animator would need to worry about. 2D isn't my thing, so maybe I'm not giving the whole picture here.
As for mo-cap, I have no idea. Apparently UA-camr Russian Badger (who uses mo-cap w/ Source) can tweak what he captures with traditional 3D animation and in-engine physics interactions.
Basically: 48 frames per second doesn't double our workload like it would a 2D animator, instead anything below or above 60 FPS becomes something to account for when animating, and more complex motions will require more key frames and animation curve edits (basically more data) to make look good.
Interpolated 60 fps videos do look “lifelike”…

i didn’t think there actually existed people who describes themselves as gamers. like how do you go on living after that point?
8:43 Most 3D games use a model with a skeleton inside. The skeleton basically decides what and where the joints are. From there, you can usually either record a motion by manually moving the bones, or rig the model and skeleton to a premade animation. The manual way is sort of like recording a video of the animation, while rigging the model is more like the interpolation of 3D modeling. Of course, this isn’t how all games do it, but many games do work this way.
so, it's basically tweening?

We should make these gamers animate an entire show in 60fps by hand for saying iTs NOt ThAT haRd
YES, LMAOO
as someone who has animated poorly before and is also a GaMeR... yes these fuckin brainlets have no idea
no. that would be overkill. let them draw ONE FRAME. just ONE, but it must be at least acceptable. they would shut their goddamn mouth.
Cell animation they should just redraw cuphead
Yeah there is a reason Harry Partridge takes one year to make his animations. He does everything alone and by hand.
the same people who say "wow cool, they release a new episode every sunday" and "THE NEW SEASON OF (insert well animated anime here) MIGHT NOT COME OUT FOR ANOTHER YEAR?!?!" are the same people who say "not using 48-60 frames is lazy"
MOST PEOPLE CANT EVEN PROPERLY *SEE* 60 FRAMES!!! WHAT RU TALKING ABOUT?!?!?
edit: your brain fills in frames for you, so even 12 fps works fine, but, using about 24 fps and switching to about 12 or less for fight scenes and things like that makes it easier to understand whats happening. im not good at animating lol, but ive learned things about it overtime just by watching and listening to other people. its REALLY not rocket science
oh and, one more thing, certain things mess with me because i have sensory disorder (it aint rlly severe or anything but to much noise, flashing lights, quick visuals or all of the above can make it hard to breathe and i freak out, ive gotten a little more used to it but i dont think im ever gonna get over bad food textures lol) i love pizza tower and its animation, but i dont play it simply because its gameplay is too fast and the music tends to be pretty intense and loud. i LOVE undertale and deltarune, but the omega flowey fight really messed me up because it was very flashy and the music was loud. so sometimes i just dont like the visuals because they make me feel funny. but even past all that, 24 fps usually looks better, and is just less time consuming anyways. the choppy artstyle in puss n boots messed with me a little just because of how quickly the colors and scene and all that could change, but i still enjoyed it more than i would have at 60 fps. surely that says something?
I love how even if it becomes the new standard it will probably take a very long time to change every animation class, the things every animator currently knows about frames and I mean the list goes on. What about animation projects that are currently going on right now? Will they just have to start over? Like I love how not only do they not realise that it doesn’t look good but it would also cause a crap-ton of problems and would take a long time to fully change.

@Throwaway_73 *"It doesn't matter if it takes 8 seconds or 8 years, everything should be judged equally."*
I'm sorry, are you saying you discard the amount of time and effort of people spent on? If that's the case, that's just wrong, I stand corrected.
@Throwaway_73 but these people know nothing about art or animation, food would be different because it's not a form of art. Games may contain animations but those are different, you usually want a smooth animation for a game, but for animation, you could want to do something as stylistic yet painfully long as Spiderman: Into The Spiderverse, or something appealing such as the Initial D: Legend's style. You can still have a style for a game, like ULTRAKILL, but most want higher framerates and WAY more polygons, like what Unreal Engine 5 offers the potential to bring

@@immentallyhandicapped2903 If i recall correctly, there is a solid degree of artistic intent when it comes to someone’s animation/artwork. Like say for instance, you’re baking a cake & you want this cake to be decorated so it looks like a bed as a sort of comfy theme.
Now, imagine some schmuck coming in, seeing your bed cake, saying something like, “bruh, this is shit, I can make it better.” Then this schmuck proceeds to alter the cake decorations that you put all of your time & effort into making, & winds up making it look worse than not only how you intended it to look.
I could be wrong with this analogy, but that’s just what came to mind lol.
@@bronzeoliniisnotfunny7885 You're still trying to make the argument that the person doing it is a jerk who wants to be better than the artist. I love seeing 60fps interpolation, yeah it's not extremely lifelike but I think it's really cool what AI can do and it's really useful for stopmotion animators.
@@beatrice7924 They aren't a jerk per say. More like someone who doesn't understand the medium at play and ignores any level of nuance or artistic choice, and is only making the argument that "big number better than little one". Also the fact that someone can make money converting clips they didn't make just by shitting it through a program is just wrong on so many levels.

To the game animation question in the video. Note, I am not a game animator, I'm an engineer. But I work animators and have to deal with the code side of animating.
The 2 most common ways to animate in a 3D video game are:
Rigged Key Frame Animations: you create a skeleton for your model and then skin the mesh to that skeleton and define constraints and weights and what nots to everything. With this you can pose your model and then tween between those poses. Your key frames don't necessarily need to be on any specific frame count unless you want it to for artistic reasons. But usually the key frames are more determined by the pose requirements.
Mesh Animations: the MOST annoying animation but gives you the fullest control. You quite literally animate the mesh by hand. You'll again utilize keyframes with tweens just to keep storage down. Since this type of animation requires all mesh delta data to be stored, it's almost like you're storing duplicates of the mesh over and over rather than bone vectors. This makes these animations GIGANTIC in memory and are seldom used unless there's just no other way to get that perfect animation. Due to these storage constraints these often are very much animated at low framerate.
For 2D games:
Traditional frame animation: literally like you do for film/youtube/etc. You draw individual frames and you show them at some frequency. The framerate is usually low due to storage requirements (especially on older hardware). As for timing of framerates it varies wildly by year. Old games were mostly constant because the hardware constraints made storing the data necessary for a timeline as well as the processing necessary very difficult. If you had a complex timeline it was likely for a cutscene, or old school version of a cutscene, hand crafted in code, and little to no gameplay occurring at the time. Now a days having timelines that allow for varying framerates is more easily possible because we have the power to do so. But I mean we're usually token short moments of time (aside from cutscene) in the milliseconds because animation timing is usually controlled by event/user input. Like a jump animation is really like 3-5 animations stitched together an "enter" (the beginning of the leap only a few frames long), a upward "hold" (just a single frame, such as while airborne upward), a "transition" (a few frames to transition from upward to downward), a downward "hold" (single frame for dropping), then "exit" (contact with ground). And thing is that a lot of those could cancel out at any point because you were hit by an enemy, bonked your head on the ceiling, slammed into a wall, etc which may cause a completely different transition. But each animation is literally a single if not a small handful of frames.
Rigged 2D vectorized art: this works for true vector art, or for traditional art (pixel art) that is high enough resolution to not look jank as fuck. It's very much like rigging in 3d, but instead the 'mesh' is replaced by the 'sprite'. And it will squash/smear the sprite. Personally I think it looks like shit and really only works when combined with traditional frame animation as well as other stuff. Honestly... it's probably very similar to what your art tools do, if only streamlined a bit to keep storage requirements low.
Other stuff: honestly, I don't work in 2D very often (I used to back in the day with the likes of flash). I've done a couple jobs working along side 2D animation. But really at the end of the day... my main take away from it is yes, it's VERY similar to traditional animation as it's 2D. So if you have some tricks that you can export as frames... it's doable. Things like your tweens/interpolations moving objects across the screen and putting eases on them. Yeah... we can store that all in a smaller size than exporting as individual frames. It's "smoother", but also has that "made by a computer" look too.
i love how every comment in this video is cut of as soon as it says "gamer" its just perfect

I can't see any difference beyond 60 fps
@@TheRuancarlo Yeah, at least to my understanding, when the artform is made for a spesific frame rate, then it wouldn't be that different. But the thing a higher framerate gives you for a pc is that you get less ghosting. Ghosting is caused by having more information that the pc displays on the monitor, but since the monitor can't show things faster than the frame rate you will see that as having an afterimage of the thing that is moving fast. Like if you move your cursor rapidly from side to side, then you would be able to se those afterimages of the cursor. Sorry for bad english, am Norwegian.
