  • Adobe's internal design team has a series called "Pivotal Moments" where different employees share some of their life experiences along with the lessons they've learned. This is what I presented in the summer of 2022.

    4:10min. BTS (behind the scenes) embedded in each story block. A full scope of the story in one place. Smart. Thank you.

    I just used character animator for an animation if a character promoting Baltimore improv festival, so I was really happily surprised that you spent some time in Baltimore. You're having a positive impact here still 😍

    I have taught in public schools with low socioeconomic demographics for 11.5 years. It is without a doubt the hardest thing to do. I am looking into ways to get out of the classroom. I have used Character Animator in lessons and for an after school animation club. I absolutely LOVE it. That you for sharing your story with this wonderful video! I find it very inspiring.
    I am hoping to apply the the Adobe Creative Residency Program for 2022-2023, but am beginning to wonder if Adobe will be doing it this year. The applications usually open around May and they still have not.
    I absolutely love Adobe products and am having an absolute blast learning the software - and for that I must thank you because you have been my teacher for Ch. So thank you very much Dave.

    This is so inspirational! Really loved how you embraced your kids passion for theater instead of sports. I suck at sports & it hurt My self esteem as a kid. Ironically at 60 years I am running my 5 th marathon. By trying new stuff we make new stories that make a positive impact. It all ties together. This is wonderful story Dave & a great Dad!

    Hi Dave I have to say, I am a big fan of your CH tutorials and it inspired me to start my own channel with videos made with CH, I even started a freelance animator career and getting paid to make animations and videos, my clients here in Hong Kong are very impressed with animations I made with character animator. So thank you and keep going!!

    Love what you did here sir. I student taught English but after I student taught I decided it wasn't for me. Been using Photoshop since I went to high school and built websites. It's pretty cool that someone else in this world had a similar experience. It's great to see that your family remains the most important to you. Many people choose work over family. Family always comes first. Everything you mentioned with the interview stuff, is so true. I remember that as well. Now everyone just throws it online. Love seeing how your life story was written, but it's still being written. What will happen next? :)

    This is such a cool and simplistic style! How did you do the drawing portions where is looks like you're making it in real time? 2:03 is a great example of what I've been trying to make, but mine looks far less impressive (I've just been revealing the finished art with masks and paths in AE, but I couldn't figure out how to make parts of it reveal first before the others like you did).
    Thanks for any pointers!

    • @okaysamurai
      @okaysamurai  Рік тому

      Thanks! So I do all my drawings in Adobe Fresco on an iPad Pro. It automatically takes a timelapse of everything you do, so you can export out a video at the end. Then I just used a multiply blend mode to remove the white background, and keyframes in After Effects to make it slowly scale up or down. It's a great way to make illustrations look more engaging for videos!

    I made a documentary on the Battle of Gettysburg using character animator. It’s 55 minutes long. A few days later, I took a 13 minute excerpt from it and released that. The excerpt video has 4 times the views of the full length video, so I guess shorter videos are better. 18,000 views in about 5 weeks. Not too bad.

    You are an inspiration to many and you are an amazing teacher, hats off to you. I just had a question about your live action and 2D animation combo. Is it possible to animate objects not only characters. Like a soccer ball into a field to make it look like the live-action actor and the 2D animated character are playing together? If so what software would I use and would I need to hand draw each key frame or can I use adobe animate, create the animation and edit it in through after affects like you do in adobe character animator.

    • @okaysamurai
      @okaysamurai  Рік тому

      Thanks! I would probably use Character Animator for the character and composite everything in After Effects.
