Man's making a whole new generation of storytellers
Not really... I think more like just giving them a platform to share those stories

A good tip is: Be yourself, but be aware of what others are doing. And try to put your own interpretation alongside what many of your influences have taught you. How would you approach things an inspiration has done in your own way? Just a cool thing to think about
Thats why I just started a youtub channel. Been drawing for 2 years without much progress because no one was there to spot my mistakes and get me out of this habit I have . I don't know if this will work though. I was never guided and being self thought seems to not have worked. I'll ve shameless and even upload all my mistakes without editing them out...
What makes these stand out to me is not even style or staging but the story. The stories are tight, they make me wanna watch more. Don't put too much emphasis on style, you can have the prettiest looking drawings out there but what is it worth if the characters don't do anything?
@Splorcher you execute someone eleses story. Directors do it all time, short story/books adaptations for example
its like saying if the gameplay is good visual dont matter, not here boi, I wont touch it, first make it appealing then I judge if worth my time to dive in more.. we are viual creatires first.
I just love how Ethan only had to see western scene once 2:34 to copletely lose his shit and transition to 18th century gold miner.
Pour your heart out in your art, and don't be lazy. that's what makes people notice you.
there goes my hero
Now you work your way to be others hero :)
we can do it too!
Watch him as he goes
I love your videos, tips etc. Ethan and they do help me. I am living in Turkey and for the last couple of weeks we are having multiple earthquakes. It’s devastatingly depressive right now to live and before the morning i could die too in my sleep. So i just wanted to say thanks for the tips and the help. As i see your new video, figured that i might not see another one. Wish you a great life.🤟🏻
Sorry for what happened there and people still are suffering under the crushed homes. Why did this tragedy happen in our time
What happened in Turkey is just too painful to imagine. I hope one day things will get better. I wish you and your family all the best, komşu. 🇧🇬❤️🇹🇷
You do know that he says a lot of things ironic, yes? 😂
This is such a nightmare, prayers for everyone, please be safe :(
Love from Greece
hope Project City gets HUGE
And when the world needed him most...he finally dropped😪💯
You're like my own art therapist, always telling me exactly what I need to hear.
It’s so cool to see more previews of Rad’s animation project again! The preview back at the Art Department got me really invested. (Shoutout to all the ones who were there :P )
this is my favourite series ever on yt, ethan is helping the animation industry more than we could have ever imagined
I'm in a place where I don't know if i wanna be a character designer, bg designer, animator or literally any other form of art, i don't know the tip of my mountain to aim for it. And this is literally crippling my artistic growth.
Honestly same.
Same but maybe try all of em in some way? To see if you'd enjoy or like one more than another? That's what I'm thinking of doing
Speaking from (kinda?) an experience, usually if you have a hard time getting motivated when being told to do something it's wise to do something you feel mild about so your spirit doesn't fade from it but it doesn't make the job less fun either- so that way, when you get home from whatever you do, you can have more free-roam fun doing what you love and making more ideas? it might not help you but it saved me from burnout a ton
@@machetemythosthe job is where artist lack off
It is harder to draw or make art when you are just chilling during your days off or stress out on your days off until the next week of your work
We don't need superhero in spandex number 40. We need you.
What a powerful message
Always looking out to these yt videos. I wish I could follow one of those project city tours, but I don’t have the time, so these rare videos will have to do :’)
Thanks for still making them!!
THANKS ETHAN! Videos like these makes me feel alive. See all these talented people and their projects it give me a happy feelinh in my stomach.
Man, I miss you
Hope you have enough time to make more videos
Not gonna lie - that little bit at 11:59 was pretty cool, all of these are amazing but that was awesome.
thanks man i needed to see a new video by you, you know when its needed to post my dude
I’ll be joining Project City and start putting my stuff out there more, also I know you’ve gotta be so busy but I would love to get some pointers one day. I never went to school or anything for animation but got into it a couple years ago and really want to improve and get better at story telling.
Thanks for the great content as always and I really love this whole idea of getting animators together in one place and just letting them create whatever they want. 🙏 ❤
These are incredible ❤❤❤
Fantastic community - brilliant projects!!
I was going to say that the lesson is to actually just make stuff and put shots up. Like these people are making things while other artists sit back and critique everything because they feel bad they're not making stuff.
Always a pleasure watching you videos Ethan ❤
project city is the coolest thing I've ever seen.... even tho I cannot afford it right now (I'm between jobs atm), I feel like waaaay more people can now learn what they are actually interested in doing with their lives than say during Disney etc. times, heck, even CalArts I'd say is the last generation compared to this now. Ethan, don't be humble now and just accept that the whole world (of animation at least, but still, IT'S HUGE) owes you. You're flipping the industry upside down and making it 10000 times cooler than it used to be. What a time to be alive. Can't wait to see where your students end up and see their work! Hope I can also attribute to all this at some point.
I can't lie that skateboard animation was amazing for as simple as it was. Great story, great key details, cinematic shots and angles with the perfect balance of comedy and action. I had to clap after watching
this is very motivating
i struggle with my work a lot not knowing how to make people like what I do
lately i decided to just fuck it and do what I want to do and show of what I like
its getting there slowly but it is !!!!
I just hope one day more people will hear my stories
I couldn’t tel you how or why the delivery of his teachings is so captivating
You know its a Good day when he uploads!
That second one looks awesome!!! Reminds me of Afro samurai a lot
I know what I need when I'm down, a bit of Ethan Becker! Hell yeah! Dont you ever stop, you hear me :)
Thank you so much for videos like this
This makes me feel so inspired 😊
Im fired up! Thank you
Ok, done researching what the heck this is, and now I'm sold.
that is a really nice speech there right at the end!
I'm excited to watch this!!
I loveeeee these videos i learn so much!
you the man always love the videos. have you ever worked in the comics medium?
Your videos make me happy!
I was just wondering about this, you're a mind reader sir!
Any time I feel lacklustre about my life or about this art thing in general,, it all goes away at least temporarily when I come to your channel.
Thank you 👐🤲
Love your videos! I do agree with your suggestion! Thanks!
Now I need a full 24 ep show of each story
I've never been more in need of a new video rn WHERE ARE YOU?!?!?
I'm so pumped! I love project city and I want to be a part of it!
I love this one 11:00. Some sharp lines and it is a true beginning of a movie.
never been so early. Love you Ethan

ETHAN UPLOAD MORE GODDAMMIT
i love you man
Brooo ethan becker need to do art review on vegabond and berserk
Vegabond generally had great art from the start but got even better with already godly amazing art but somehow the manga artist kept getting better
And about berserk is that the whole art progress of the artist is in the manga because in the beginning of berserk the art was just above average artist but in the end the art got so godly that he went to top 10 manga artist ( R.I.P to kentaro muira) i would love a video on this topic
its not vegabong its vaGAbond.
When the world needed him the most
MY ART DAD IS BACK
Return of the king
Shoutouts to the story sprint it’s so good
Hey Ethan I got a challenge for you, can you break down old 80’s-90’s anime? There’s this anime called California crisis, relatively unknown but BEAUTIFUL ova. I really want to see how to achieve that style and the breakdown to do so
*What I wouldn’t give for this man to critique my work*
Could you teach us how to photobash or photo manipulate for storyboarding?
I know I'm not a student but I got a question: how do they get to storyboarding? Do they improvise the story? I get that they design the characters, but what if I'm not good at retaining information through text-but at the same time really want to plan it all out before putting in a lot of work?
Come up with a summary of what you'd like to happen in the stor, like 3 sentences long; you can do it in your head if youd like, just as if youre summing it up for a friend. Then draw the most important moments in the story, your "key moments" . Once you've done that, if youre happy with it you flesh out everything that happens in between.
As a Dungeon Master homebrewing and improvising whole campaigns:
Most of the time I have a rough idea for a setting and something I/my game group would like to Explore.
So 1st think about the setting, it doesn't need to be worked out to 100%. Descriptive key words might be enough. Idk jungle, sci fi tech = magic, Ruins of foreign cities, AI Robots existing as gods organizing human life.
Than think about the Theme and story hook which breaks the status quo and get things rolling.
Human enclave lost their AI god and the village Tries to restructure and organize, Protagonist Tries to survive the Change.
From there I would roughly think about an overarching plot, not for the whole book/story but just the current chapter.
As DnD uses a lot of improvising, having a complete overarching plotline thought out might just be wasted energy so I think in chapter for chapter. Using my players assumptions and thoughts as the baseline for the next chapter, Integrating their background stories and what ever they fed while roleplaying.
The list goes on but that is how I start out.
The way I organize everything is a Mixtur between physical (when I feel inspired on the go) and Digital Notes.
Digital:
Tables for organizing a locations: Theme, story hooks + MC guffins and items of curiosity, npc working against the players goals, npcs needed to make something feel Alive. Npc are also organized by fractions.
Beware: your story might not need such tables thought out too deep. But playing dungeons and dragons I must Consider everything thst Covers the basics so the Player can roam around and discover things whereever they go.
In a story, like an animation where every character and story beat is railroaded and not Happening by pure Chance/accident. You don't need 100s of 1000s of unique blacksmiths witb their own story and background knowledge, gossip knowledge to throw hints at different local mysteries. Cause your Protagonist only encounters them by your wish.
My rule of thumb: even for the smallest village you need 10 named npcs to make it feel Alive.
All right guys, let's go out there and make a difference!
this is a project city moment
mark my words I am gonna rock project city
I love Ethan Becker
Hey dude, I have an industry question for you...what do you do when the show you work on is about to end? How do you handle the stress of needing to look for a new show while wrapping on the one you're currently on? Do you feel like you've reached a point in your career where you no longer have to worry about stuff like that? I've been working in the industry for 3+ years now and I'm finding it hasn't gotten easier but I manage to find work, one time it took me 9 months and it SUCKEDDD
The second animation guy had a smile devil fruit 😂😂 wolf belly
this is powerful
thank you for being exist
In all honesty I'm not concerned with standing out. I just want to stop hating my art seconds after I make it.
Sweetie George Michael, these works are incredibly wonderful and your words are a big palm on our shoulders to keep developing our art. I hope some day I have somethig to show you. Big hug from Arg 🌟🌟🌟
Bro is unleashing the next wave of piratery
Gracias por subir vídeo siempre veo tus vídeos repetidamente
18:40 long video?! You're spoilin me!
I was just randomly reminded of when Ethan showed up on Proko and somebody drew him as a chicken. They called him Ethan Pecker
Hey Ethan. This one is off topic, but is there a difference between horizon line and eye level. I tried creating a 1 point perspective grid from a 3D grid in Photoshop, but when I tried the lines don't match the image, but when I put a horizontal line above the horizon line, it matched the 3D perspective grid. So I had a line for the horizon line and another line above it, which made me think, is horizon line different from eye level.
Skate witch let's gooooo pjc baby
My thanks mystical internet dude 😌🙏
Got me on the YEEEEEE
6:23 NOOO MY ONLY WEAKNESSS

You're alive 🤯
The secret is to get a really good brush
bro I missed you fr
1 second into the video and we already get a >:(
😆😆 Missed you!
Hey, I have a lower back injury and walk 8-10km everyday to stay active and lose weight.
Do you think these would be a good cushioned option and would last at least 1+ years of regular walking?
My other options are limited like Gel Nimbus 25. I've used Novablast 3 but had them stolen very sadly.
Dope.
The secret: tell a story that makes your audience come back for more.
