As a person who does stop motion animation when they are bored when they say it takes a long time they flipping mean it! It took me days to make a 1 1/2 minute fight in stop motion and that was when the it was 8 FPS(frames per second). Massive studios use 12 to 24 frames a second. This is why my respect for stop motion animators is so high. Trust me if you know stop motion than you know how long it takes. But it gives a feeling of realism no other art can. I’m also a 2d animator and with my experience of both worlds stop motion is more satisfying even if its a million times more difficult. Though 2d animation might have its benefits(and its benefits are HUGE)stop motion brings something no other animation style can. A feeling of physical realism.
Going back to when I was a kid about fifty years ago I have loved stop motion , the look and feel , the surreal nature of it. I never thought it looked "real" but that was always the beauty of it.
You did a very good job on this film it helps to explain cgi and stop motions place in the new world of animation. I enjoyed it from start to finish good work.
To me claymation, stop motion, puppets and in general real life items age better in film. CGI has a huge problem with longevity. What looks good today usually looks pretty bad in 2-5 years, mainly because it looks bad today but it's simply new to the eye. CGI looks nothing like the real world, we just think it does... until 2-5 years later when it looks clunky, too slick and plain.
CGI has already reached the point where you don’t notice it unless they want you to. Shooting a scene on a crowded city street in, say, 1970? Nobody can afford to set up a period set that large, or hire thousands of extras to fill it any more, so that background and all the people filling it are computer-generated. Yet you wouldn’t give them a second glance.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 I notice it... just because you don't does not mean others don't. The point is not CGI, it's how it's used that makes it destroy movies.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 I never watched it. Either way I'm correct and have been proven correct over and over and over and over and over and over and over. YOU think something looks great today... but in 5-10 years you lolz at it. I'm just telling you what you will be doing in 5-10 years from now.
@@FEV369 Go watch it, and come back and tell us, and we can judge for ourselves how correct you are. It’s not even a new movie, so it doesn’t use the latest technology.
Stop-motion is not only "effects", it's a language, using materials, objects or puppets. CGI liberated it from being "VFX". This is a western point of view. In Central Europe, the trickery doesn't must be hidden, as in Jiri Trnka, Karel Zeman and Jan Svankmajer movies.
5:07 Call their technique “CGM” (“Computer-Generated Models”), then, instead of “CGI”. It is one step closer to CGI than traditional stop-motion. Next, have the human animators just set up the model posing for the keyframes, and have the interpolation between those keyframes done by robots, and you have practically closed the loop. Still doesn’t solve the motion-blur problem, though.
Stop motion seems cool but we all know deep down, everyone prefers the easier way of getting better results. It's called advancement by letting go of old glory for a better world.
my opinion. CGI become much better grafic, more realistic and cheaper since computer become more advance at future. CGI progression just much faster than Stop Motion progression. The Art of Stop Motion aspect the most selling point here, but not much progression lately.

I absolutely loved this video! Big fan of stop motion
Thanks for this video, good work! I love the techniques used by Laika for the waves, really cool to see those
2:35 Those glowing costumes in _Tron_ were not CGI, they were hand-painted by the animation artists, on each frame.
I love stop motion it make more realistic than a great game

great video.
i have one minor nitpick though, the movie is called coraline.
This channel is awesome and really advanced. I love this
i did not know that [when first wacthing this video] that stop motion was still being used

Adorei seu vídeo
He said "I loved your video" in Portuguese.
Cool 😎
Toy Story: No
ParaNorman: Yes
Stop Motion Animation wins

Computer animation is cheaper and faster to make
