Trust me, rendering something like agent 327 will still take weeks on a normal PC. And even with blender 2.8 and eevee, a 1h 30min film will still not be as good as a Pixar if you won't use cycles. Trust me, I've been using the blender 2.8 beta a lot lately, and eevee doesn't look as good as a proper raytracing engine like cycles. I'm very excited for blender 2.8, but you'll never be able to render a proper film on your pc and compare it to Pixar. These guys will always be ahead of us home producers. You make it look like 3d design/animation is easy, but it's not. It's still a very time consuming hobby. Without a very expensive server farm, it's pretty much impossible to produce high quality movies. Actually, I find this video kinda insulting, because it is so hard to learn 3d animation and modeling and you're saying that it's super easy. I'm using Blender for years now, and there's still a lot to learn for me.
I picked my Imac out of the trash. Had a bad HDD. I'm sure the Apple store was going to charge the guy hundreds to fix it. Threw a SSD in it and we're in business :D
@@The3DSMaxinator Ya Its to reduce the stretching and warping around the bending areas. So if the arms go up, down, forward, back... T pose is right in the middle. Not that you have to start with a T pose tho as the warping can be fixed with shape keys
Finally, my dream of creating a feature length version of "Johnny Johnny Yes Papa" can come true. My screenplay on the expanded Johnny universe has been in the works for *years!*
@@jerrymeer Still an interesting vid. But, yeah, it was an ad. Wish he went more into giving advice for someone getting into 3D animation for the first time.
@@ProjetoAnimaJam That doesn't really teach you how to make stuff. That teaches more about the workflow. I'd recommend checking out Andrew Price's tutorials.
Animation student here. I've been learning how to model and animate in Maya for a couple years now and I've fallen in love. I've been teaching myself how to rig recently and I can't stop. Really excited to start making my own animations.
I don't understand why people were so mad at this guy. Sure, making a 3D animation is hard, but he's just saying that the tools are available. I'd even use my own channel as proof of that. I'm not good at animating in 3D but I certainly can access it
The good thing about this information is that it means that anyon can become an animator. The bad thing about this is that... well, _anyone_ can become an animator. One of the major barriers of entry, however, is the amount of hours you want to put in to develop the necessary level of skill that people expect from animation these days. I'm majoring in animation and design and I can tell you that for many of my peers that has been the toughest thing to face in this industry. So brace youself!
Odd absolutely. The same could be said about any career path. Most people will think it's easy and then quit when the going gets tough 🙃 That's always a good way to find out who is truly determined though!
Odd Good thing most are kids with no talent or aptitude who just use blender at a low level. But their is some really actually talented people out their
@Jyswoo I honestly disagree. I thought the video was well made and almost even inspirational. I personally have not much interest in becoming a 3D animator but at the very least it was informative.
Joseph Persaud I mean I don't mind as long as the sponsor is related to the video and not the other way around (a bit confusing ik), but y'know it doesn't mean austin didn't wanted to talk about this very topic in the first place Most of the time it's sponsors that meet videomakers I assume, and the video in itself was interesting
It most certainly can be done. What one must have is the passion & determination to do it. I started my journey into animation with Windows Movie Maker 1995 edition. By drawing each frame by frame by hand. Followed by scanning them into the computer & then adding them into the software one by one. Using the magnifying glass bar to zoom in & correct each placement of every frame. Now I am teaching myself Blender to model & animate my projects. Never give up on this journey if you wish to make animations. There are so many sources & help put out there. And if some joe smo adequate artist like me can do it. Than there is no excuse why you can't.
@@TheSpyrexian Also will make more terrible movies soon it'll be like steam. i actually am very interested in what machine learning may bring to the table to the 3d industry in games and movies.
Machine learning in games will probably mostly be used to make AI more difficult to battle - we've already seen deep learning applied to first person games making the AI on the same level or better than top competitive players.
@@voidofspaceandtime4684 I don't see that as a general purpose use. Ai in games are built to be at a certain difficulty level. They could make Ai that are better than players easily but they don't. You wouldn't use deep learning Ai to directly make your enemies unless it is some sort of competitive game. Now what you could see deep learning used for is maybe research and match making. could learn the best people to match players to each other that keeps players playing the longest (this i wouldn't be too fond of because quantity over quality) but another. BUT there are applications to art for deep learning Ai. there is an Ai that can recreated famous painters art styles and remake pictures in those art styles. Has fooled some art historians into thinking they where looking at real paintings. Now imagine you created an art style of your own and you could put it into a machine that can copy it and you can convert and update old work to a new art style. This is really just a fraction of the possibilities and many programs that are out there. Its possible that most of the grunt work handled on art teams will be handled with Ai in the future.
I’ll be really excited when technology gets to the point that anyone can create and render an animated feature film! But, keep in mind that no level of advanced software and hardware can save a film from poor storytelling or a lack of experience and/or care... nor can it save you from hours of frustration and mistakes, retries and rewrites, and failures! Responsibility, collaboration, determination... we can only hope to do and have what it takes ^^;
Sunspot Mill I mean sometimes they've actually tried and it's been good, like with Spider-Man or Charlie Brown, but illumination... like Despicable Me was about the only good one they've made years ago, and since then they've always wanted to put cutesy marketable animation above everything else. I think they'll get better eventually with the story, but man it always feels so corporate and fake whenever they make a movie compared with some of the other movies those companies you listed have made. Also true, those companies also aren't fully trusted for me, and I bet Sony Animation ain't doing too well money wise and used the Emoji movie as a desperate bid for profit.
@@tomo4977 Thanks for your input. Well, I also feel that Illumination actually tired half of the times as well than given credit for. But arguably speaking, all three studios are a mixed bag when it comes to movies and that their distributors at times may have some influence there-- for better or worse (Fox, Uni, Sony). It feels that Illumination mostly faced minion related fatigue, much like how Blue Sky faced a fatigue over the Ice Age sequels, and Sony Animation for the Hotel Transylvania franchise and other things. But the potentials are still there. I also think Illumination will get better eventually overtime like how Blue Sky first did too. This actually kind of reminds me of how Dreamworks had to recover from their mid-2000s slump before. Sony Animation is kind of a different story for me. While I do like a few of their movies so far, especially Surf's Up, I'm not too impressed by the corporate feel of their movies lately funny enough and The Emoji Movie is the worst epitome of that case. They're almost no different than regular Sony Pictures at this point when it comes to making blockbuster franchises that mostly gets them nowhere (Ghostbusters reboot, Venom, Pixels, Dark Tower, etc). I do think Spiderverse could become Sony Pictures Animation's big break though, but at this point, how many times is Sony going to make a franchise out of Spider-Man? They still got a Tom Holland version running at the same time and whatever they planing to launch with the Spider-Man villains like Venom. But at least they're all still better off compare to what Lionsgate or Open Road are trying to do with animated movies like "Norm of the North" or "The Nut Job" imo.
As an animator, here's how he's wrong: 1) Pixar has hundreds of high talent workers and hundred of millions of dollars. No one person can compete. 2) Assuming you know everything about animation and have all the hardware required, it would take 100 years to complete a film of Pixar quality. 3) As technology improves, yes amateurs have more access to CGI but the standards are higher than ever. Evolution never stops. 4) Using pre-made animations (random dances)? No...
Using animation packages that are pre-made is so limiting, It feels almost robotic. Same with the models as well. Some people want it hyperreal, some want it cartoony, but it's better to learn to model yourself.
Common sense says that if it was so easy, youtube would be flooded with 3d animations the way it is with presentations of someone drawing on a whiteboard at 10x speed.
Well youtube is flooded with more and more indie shorts. Technology has made much of the work easier and limitations are pushed every year. Some skills will be hard to replce thou
That's a very poor logic. By same logic, Target and Walmart had billions of dollars and thousands of employees. Si Amazon shouldn't have existed. Or Pixar itself because major studios already had billions of dollars and thousands of people
Me and my friend are working on an animated short that is going to be around 2 minutes long, it's taken about 2 months of work so far and around a month left, so say 3 months of work for 2 minutes of final footage for 2 people working pretty much every day, to make a feature length film would take forever, this is why these companies exist and why they're top of their game, they have all the tools and all the people that know how to use them, no single person or a few people can compete.
Honestly, this is one of the video I hv longed been wanting see with so many useful info about animation. This is just fantastic to watch. Thank you so much Austinmcconnell. It's now time to strive further in my world of animation.. Wish me luck guys..
Just like any other DIY on RUclips, 1st Day: _OK! I'm gonna do it tomorrow!_ 2nd Day _I guess, This isn't the right time!_ 3rd Day _Hmmm. (Grabs a paper to get ideas)_ 4th Day _That Sucked (And Continues RUclips)_
I can't say "no" to animation. I mean if Pixar's Cars inspired me, than I say I'm ready to test my skills. I'll love to do animation...I just don't want it in cinemas. But besides that, I'm still working on becoming an animator no matter what happens. It is my dream goal: Being an animator for Pixar.
I’m yet to start. I’ve installed FlipaClip a while back and I’ve done some testing. But once I have the time, I’ll work on more “time-took” animation. And why on Earth would I want attention? I don’t ever intend on having attention in the first place.
Kareem... Screenshot 📺 this message, frame 🖼 it and hold onto your dream. Imagine yourself as if it has already happened. Repeat the words... “I am a Pixar Animator” Close your eyes and see yourself say there at the Pixar studios, look around at all the posters of Pixar classics, look at your desk and all the great gear at your fingertips... But hold that feeling of accomplishment in your heart, knowing that you’ve finally made it. Then come back to RUclips, show us your achievements and that framed screenshot of how your dream started, and that holding onto your dream was important. Your here to inspire others like you. It’s time to create the life that you feel in your heart, and live your dreams. 😁✨✨🙌🏾💯🙌🏾✨✨😁
I took me 6 months to learn how to model, animate, and edit my own 7 minute short film from complete scratch back in 2014/15 in blender... sheepit render farm saved my life during that project. Looking back at it now, its almost laughable how the 2 months of rendering I did can now be compressed into just a few days and a lot of the workflow processes I did are so simplified and easy to do now.
And even easier 3 years after, denoising is so powerful now, cycles viewport feels like realtime and 100 samples looks like a thousand. Cycles x renders at half the time of normal cycles. I can't wait to see what the future holds.
I am amazed every time I see one of your videos, your quality really stands out. The work gone into each and every one Ive seen so far seems miles ahead of most other information channels. Thank you for the content and keep it up :)
Last year in highschool I got the chance to mess around with Blender models and animation and let me tell you, you have to put a lot of work into it and "fail" a lot to succeed but once you get that perfect donut with sprinkles next to a coffee mug model rendered its truly beautiful :')
Austin your videos really give me hope as an aspiring content creator. You get me excited about the future while teaching me about the past. Your videos have really made me realize I live in a golden age of content creation, and it emboldens me to make more. Thank you.
@@austinmcconnell You sold them a bill of goods. You no less just told them that with free drawing software and an affordable tablet you too can be the next Bob Ross. You left out all the art disciplines out of the whole thing that without it people just end up making garbage.
I learned after effects pretty much exclusively via Reddit and RUclips The guy who made agent 47 is active on Reddit, and made me realize how accessible what he did. The communities are ready to be used.
This is so inspirational to me! Back in 2014, I dreamt of animating films, but it felt impossible to learn on my own. I think I'm gonna start learning again!
Bay Raitt is a 3D modeler veteran who used to be an employee at Valve Software having worked on the Source engine, came up with Source Filmmaker, and prior to working at Valve he did the CGI for Gollum in Lord of the Rings. I spoke with him once on Twitter in a DM because I had a model scaling question regarding the Source engine. He was both pleasant and helpful, and he sent me a link to a website of his that explains everything a beginning would ever want to know about 3D modeling. Bay Raitt is one of the top pros of the craft so yes, there are knowledgeable people out there who will gladly point others in the right direction(s). Thank you Mr. Raitt.
I watched this 2 years ago when it first came out and I was like, cool but I probably won’t ever do that. Now 2 years later I’m already well on my 3D journey and I got this video recommended to me again.
I'm almost there! started with Blender 4 months ago and started in 3D in general a year ago around this time. Animation is my next digital nut to crack. I got this!! Oh and dope video bro. We got this ;)
@Sasha Kammakitz-Jen I think its because cgi is about using exact computer programs to portray 3d shapes on a 2d plane whereas in 2d animation stylization and a bunch of shortcuts are used to portray movement and character. but I do agree a lot of the big company animations look pretty samezy I'm hoping we might see more stylization in the future I mean cel shading allows for a bit of that at least.
@Sasha Kammakitz-Jen I think its simply because these Production Companies are using the same Concept Artists over and Over again. But i don't think anyone is ever using the same Artistic Style as Shrek, since, you know, it Hideous. But what must be Remembered is that 3D Animation is a Tool, of many, to tell a Story. There's a Reason why those Big companies Choose to do Big Screen Movies in 3D animation instead of 2D, and its because 2D doesn't scale up for those Big screens. 3D animation allows you to take advantage of the Big Screen to enhance the experience. For the small screen in the other hand, i do agree the 2D animation is preferable, since the Production time constraints make 3D animation in Tv-series look Subpar.
dude why are you such a gold youtuber. why havent you already passed 1 million subs? this stuff is mind blowing and you explain it so easily, like a 6 year old could understand it. amazing work, ill keep watching your videos!
If the Incredibles 3 wasn’t just leaked on the “badigtoy” instag-ram profile today I’d say I’d make it myself on my phone, so I’ll just make the Incredibles 4 baby.
As someone who actively does cg animation in blender, I can already tell you it would take you over a decade to render it. Even if you did all the creation process in a day.
I'm a major in 3D animation and I agree that having all these resources are amazing. Even with the training from my teachers, making my own 3d animated movie by myself would stress me out so much with all the steps you have to do to make a quality movie
My sister wants to get into 3D animation for game development. I myself, am more fond of 2d since I can draw every frame and make an animation! Edit: I realise that I accidentally wrote WANs somehow, wtf autocorrect?!
As a person working in the industry, I’d say some of this is true but my opinion I couldn’t help but disagree with a lot of this. Then to top it off it’s just one big sponsored video💀
@@shabarish2727 mocap and facecap aren't going to help much when you're trying to get around the uncanny valley by using abstract characters as Pixar or DreamWorks do. Then you're going to need a fuckload of assets that match the art style of your movie, which will be impossible for a single creator. Thus, you'd be stuck with a rather realistic art style, otherwise, you just won't find enough third-party assets to really bring your movie to life. This will make it extremely difficult to navigate around the uncanny valley thus increase the cost even further. I'd say with a small team it is totally doable to produce something like boss baby or other shows where you could reuse a lot of the assets and not need such boatload of them like for a feature-length movie. A one-man team could probably produce something like Unity's Adam demo, which is amazing, but not even close to what the big studios do these days. Pixar is pretty much using cutting edge technology, so if it was possible in some way for a single guy to pull this off, they'd be the first to do it - it's just not possible and won't be for a long time. We're totally going to see a rise of beautiful cutscenes for games made by a single developer, this has definitely become possible with the rise of cheap mocap solutions like XSens (I own one of their suits and it's amazing what you can do with it). As far as actual movies go, I'd say we'll probably see smaller teams producing feature-length movies or Netflix shows, but not even close to a single developer.
even though I'm not using 3D animation, I have been working on a full length feature film for 2 years now (most of it was trying to get the story straight and i was constantly hopping from different kinds of animation) I am currently working on the latest draft of the script and i hope to finish this movie in around 2-3 years
Thanks for including SFM. It may not be the most powerful animation software, but combined with Blender, your animation will look even better, visually speaking. SFM is user-friendly and makes the character movements more fluent, although they fall short on character design as the software lack assets.
Or get a graphic tablet, clipt studio paint ex and do it digital with the advantages of both traditional and digital (layers, timeline animation preview, every color you want, ...) Btw, technology has reached a point where it's possible to emulate a real pencil digitally - Even brushes, mixing paint and watercolors is already totally possible.
I hear you when I started learning about animation 30 years ago there was no 3d market yet. I have been for years been putting off my movie ideas but I have been working this past year to get better. So this independent film will get done sooner and that is why I watch videos like this to stay motivated.
Next-Gen, a feature-length animated movie on Netflix, was made almost ENTIRELY with Blender. Blender is FREE. Skillshare plugs aside, this video makes me so freakin' excited. It is truly easier than ever to make your own CG animated stuff, and a future where we have 'indie' CG filmmakers breaking into the industry with golden-age-Pixar-quality work is a future I definitely want to live in. But remember Sturgeon's law: 90% of it will be crap. It's the 10% that we should be looking out for. *And seriously, if you want to get started with this stuff, learn Blender. It is rendering, animation, video editing, compositing, sculpting, and texture painting, all in one. Incredible piece of software.
Jonothan Kolberg Lol it is far from industry standard. They haven’t and won’t integrate blender because what works for kids learning cg things doesn’t work for a studio who needs industry standard programs at every point in the pipeline. If you think learning one complex program is hard imaging having to learn many.
@Jonothan Kolberg Indeed, they are not there yet. We have seen the same with editing software - there is a lot of free software around, but in the end it still comes down to Final Cut, Avid and Premiere whenever the workflow has to be kept compatible. And there it is not even open source trying to break into the market but well positioned companies like Blackmagic Design, and still they fail to deliver. But it is undeniable that free software fails at a much higher level now and if you are willing to deal with the quirks, you can create a blender-fusion-renderman pipeline producing something impressive entirely free.
You'd know this if you watched the Blender Con 18 presentation by Tangent Animation ( ruclips.net/video/iZn3kCsw5D8/видео.html ) but... It WASN'T made "ENTIRELY" in Blender. the animation and modelling, layout, lighting and render was done in blender. They used Substance Designer and a bit of blender for textures, Houdini for the water effects, fume fx for some particulate effects and a bit of Golem for some of the directed crowd work.
Blender is awesome. It's a great piece of 3D animation software, that has multiple uses including regular video editing. I myself became aware of it after watching the short film Agent 327 on their RUclips channel. It's a great piece of software and I highly recommend checking it out to anyone just starting out in 3D animation or, as mentioned above, video editing. Though some editors consider Blender inefficient for video editing given it was designed from the beginning to be first and foremost a 3D animation tool, so I'd try it out for yourself just to be safe.
Caleb Richardson Blender is inefficient at a lot of things because it just takes what it sees in many m better softwares and bastardizes it for free on their own software. It’s ok for kids learning but for anyone who wants a job in the industry at a high level studio I’d recommend getting actual programs.
@@bazonga9085 you dont know what you talking about... at this point alot of studios are talking about and considering changing to blender cuz its NOT FUCKING BUGY as MAYA ! and it is way better than maya can ever do at this point examples have already made on YT using blender with a PROFESSIONAL QUALITY you just butt hurt since you might be a maya fan boy get out of here
Dream High Animation They are most certainly not considered moving to blender they have thousands of dollars poured into custom plugins and years of pipeline development under their belt. The fact that you would lie as if you know what the industry is thinking of makes the rest of what you say instantly bullshit. Go back to box modeling some crap I’m blender kid.
Have a look at any of the "Saxxy awards" winners, a yearly tf2-related source film maker animation contest that delivers "mini masterpieces" made by individual animators and are a perfect illustration of the points you made here Interesting video, keep em coming
While I can agree that a lot of the Technology involved is much more accessible nowadays, but there's still stuff that big movie studios have above a DIY team. They still have a lot of highly talented people who do the custom assets, animation, and storyboarding/directing that make a difference in the product. There's a reason why these movies still cost as much as they do, even with these technological advancements.
It would be interesting if there was an app or website where thousands of random users could work on a movie at the same time, see what they come up with.

It most certainly can be done. What one must have is the passion & determination to do it.
I started my journey into animation with Windows Movie Maker 1995 edition. By drawing each frame by frame by hand. Followed by scanning them into the computer & then adding them into the software one by one.
Using the magnifying glass bar to zoom in & correct each placement of every frame. Now I am teaching myself Blender to model & animate my projects.
Never give up on this journey if you wish to make animations. There are so many sources & help put out there. And if some joe smo adequate artist like me can do it. Than there is no excuse why you can't.

i actually am very interested in what machine learning may bring to the table to the 3d industry in games and movies.
Machine learning in games will probably mostly be used to make AI more difficult to battle - we've already seen deep learning applied to first person games making the AI on the same level or better than top competitive players.
@@voidofspaceandtime4684 I don't see that as a general purpose use. Ai in games are built to be at a certain difficulty level. They could make Ai that are better than players easily but they don't. You wouldn't use deep learning Ai to directly make your enemies unless it is some sort of competitive game. Now what you could see deep learning used for is maybe research and match making. could learn the best people to match players to each other that keeps players playing the longest (this i wouldn't be too fond of because quantity over quality) but another.
BUT there are applications to art for deep learning Ai. there is an Ai that can recreated famous painters art styles and remake pictures in those art styles. Has fooled some art historians into thinking they where looking at real paintings. Now imagine you created an art style of your own and you could put it into a machine that can copy it and you can convert and update old work to a new art style. This is really just a fraction of the possibilities and many programs that are out there. Its possible that most of the grunt work handled on art teams will be handled with Ai in the future.

Hey blender is much gr8 now
Hello
Here I'm
I’ll be really excited when technology gets to the point that anyone can create and render an animated feature film! But, keep in mind that no level of advanced software and hardware can save a film from poor storytelling or a lack of experience and/or care... nor can it save you from hours of frustration and mistakes, retries and rewrites, and failures! Responsibility, collaboration, determination... we can only hope to do and have what it takes ^^;
Oh also, time is money man... time is money!

Exactly what I was thinking

Milla Saunders we have the same profile picture. That is rare fore me
Illumination learned animation this way and then tossed out good storytelling
What about Sony Animation (asides the upcoming Spider-Man) or Blue Sky that are around a bit longer than Illumination?
their entire business plan is to make mediocre movies that appeal to as many people as possible
And my question is getting ignored here because....?
Sunspot Mill I mean sometimes they've actually tried and it's been good, like with Spider-Man or Charlie Brown, but illumination... like Despicable Me was about the only good one they've made years ago, and since then they've always wanted to put cutesy marketable animation above everything else.
I think they'll get better eventually with the story, but man it always feels so corporate and fake whenever they make a movie compared with some of the other movies those companies you listed have made.
Also true, those companies also aren't fully trusted for me, and I bet Sony Animation ain't doing too well money wise and used the Emoji movie as a desperate bid for profit.
@@tomo4977 Thanks for your input. Well, I also feel that Illumination actually tired half of the times as well than given credit for. But arguably speaking, all three studios are a mixed bag when it comes to movies and that their distributors at times may have some influence there-- for better or worse (Fox, Uni, Sony). It feels that Illumination mostly faced minion related fatigue, much like how Blue Sky faced a fatigue over the Ice Age sequels, and Sony Animation for the Hotel Transylvania franchise and other things. But the potentials are still there. I also think Illumination will get better eventually overtime like how Blue Sky first did too. This actually kind of reminds me of how Dreamworks had to recover from their mid-2000s slump before.
Sony Animation is kind of a different story for me. While I do like a few of their movies so far, especially Surf's Up, I'm not too impressed by the corporate feel of their movies lately funny enough and The Emoji Movie is the worst epitome of that case. They're almost no different than regular Sony Pictures at this point when it comes to making blockbuster franchises that mostly gets them nowhere (Ghostbusters reboot, Venom, Pixels, Dark Tower, etc). I do think Spiderverse could become Sony Pictures Animation's big break though, but at this point, how many times is Sony going to make a franchise out of Spider-Man? They still got a Tom Holland version running at the same time and whatever they planing to launch with the Spider-Man villains like Venom.
But at least they're all still better off compare to what Lionsgate or Open Road are trying to do with animated movies like "Norm of the North" or "The Nut Job" imo.
As an animator, here's how he's wrong:
1) Pixar has hundreds of high talent workers and hundred of millions of dollars. No one person can compete.
2) Assuming you know everything about animation and have all the hardware required, it would take 100 years to complete a film of Pixar quality.
3) As technology improves, yes amateurs have more access to CGI but the standards are higher than ever. Evolution never stops.
4) Using pre-made animations (random dances)? No...
Using animation packages that are pre-made is so limiting, It feels almost robotic. Same with the models as well. Some people want it hyperreal, some want it cartoony, but it's better to learn to model yourself.
Common sense says that if it was so easy, youtube would be flooded with 3d animations the way it is with presentations of someone drawing on a whiteboard at 10x speed.
Well youtube is flooded with more and more indie shorts. Technology has made much of the work easier and limitations are pushed every year. Some skills will be hard to replce thou
That's a very poor logic. By same logic, Target and Walmart had billions of dollars and thousands of employees. Si Amazon shouldn't have existed. Or Pixar itself because major studios already had billions of dollars and thousands of people
Me and my friend are working on an animated short that is going to be around 2 minutes long, it's taken about 2 months of work so far and around a month left, so say 3 months of work for 2 minutes of final footage for 2 people working pretty much every day, to make a feature length film would take forever, this is why these companies exist and why they're top of their game, they have all the tools and all the people that know how to use them, no single person or a few people can compete.
Honestly, this is one of the video I hv longed been wanting see with so many useful info about animation. This is just fantastic to watch. Thank you so much Austinmcconnell. It's now time to strive further in my world of animation.. Wish me luck guys..

But besides that, I'm still working on becoming an animator no matter what happens. It is my dream goal: Being an animator for Pixar.
So did you became animator by now or was it just to get attention ?
I’m yet to start. I’ve installed FlipaClip a while back and I’ve done some testing. But once I have the time, I’ll work on more “time-took” animation.

Bay Raitt is a 3D modeler veteran who used to be an employee at Valve Software having worked on the Source engine, came up with Source Filmmaker, and prior to working at Valve he did the CGI for Gollum in Lord of the Rings.

He was both pleasant and helpful, and he sent me a link to a website of his that explains everything a beginning would ever want to know about 3D modeling. Bay Raitt is one of the top pros of the craft so yes, there are knowledgeable people out there who will gladly point others in the right direction(s). Thank you Mr. Raitt.

I prefer 2D animation
Pfp proves point
Im a 3d and 2d animator and i can agree
i like combinations of 3d and 2d i'm thinking of the upcoming spiderverse movie and also treasure planet with it use of deep canvas
@Sasha Kammakitz-Jen I think its because cgi is about using exact computer programs to portray 3d shapes on a 2d plane whereas in 2d animation stylization and a bunch of shortcuts are used to portray movement and character. but I do agree a lot of the big company animations look pretty samezy I'm hoping we might see more stylization in the future I mean cel shading allows for a bit of that at least.
@Sasha Kammakitz-Jen I think its simply because these Production Companies are using the same Concept Artists over and Over again.
But i don't think anyone is ever using the same Artistic Style as Shrek, since, you know, it Hideous.
But what must be Remembered is that 3D Animation is a Tool, of many, to tell a Story.
There's a Reason why those Big companies Choose to do Big Screen Movies in 3D animation instead of 2D, and its because 2D doesn't scale up for those Big screens. 3D animation allows you to take advantage of the Big Screen to enhance the experience.
For the small screen in the other hand, i do agree the 2D animation is preferable, since the Production time constraints make 3D animation in Tv-series look Subpar.

Agreed
@@shabarish2727 mocap and facecap aren't going to help much when you're trying to get around the uncanny valley by using abstract characters as Pixar or DreamWorks do. Then you're going to need a fuckload of assets that match the art style of your movie, which will be impossible for a single creator. Thus, you'd be stuck with a rather realistic art style, otherwise, you just won't find enough third-party assets to really bring your movie to life. This will make it extremely difficult to navigate around the uncanny valley thus increase the cost even further.
I'd say with a small team it is totally doable to produce something like boss baby or other shows where you could reuse a lot of the assets and not need such boatload of them like for a feature-length movie.
A one-man team could probably produce something like Unity's Adam demo, which is amazing, but not even close to what the big studios do these days.
Pixar is pretty much using cutting edge technology, so if it was possible in some way for a single guy to pull this off, they'd be the first to do it - it's just not possible and won't be for a long time. We're totally going to see a rise of beautiful cutscenes for games made by a single developer, this has definitely become possible with the rise of cheap mocap solutions like XSens (I own one of their suits and it's amazing what you can do with it). As far as actual movies go, I'd say we'll probably see smaller teams producing feature-length movies or Netflix shows, but not even close to a single developer.

Thanks for including SFM. It may not be the most powerful animation software, but combined with Blender, your animation will look even better, visually speaking. SFM is user-friendly and makes the character movements more fluent, although they fall short on character design as the software lack assets.
Yes! We use Blender animation to even edit our regular videos but it has so much potential for animation :D

Or get a graphic tablet, clipt studio paint ex and do it digital with the advantages of both traditional and digital (layers, timeline animation preview, every color you want, ...)
Btw, technology has reached a point where it's possible to emulate a real pencil digitally - Even brushes, mixing paint and watercolors is already totally possible.
Before seeing this I was sure I would have never been able to use Blender correctly but I dunno how you inspired me, that's sick, thanks
The videos on my channel are made with blender. It took me 6 months to learn how to go from cube to finished product. Just do it!
I hear you when I started learning about animation 30 years ago there was no 3d market yet. I have been for years been putting off my movie ideas but I have been working this past year to get better. So this independent film will get done sooner and that is why I watch videos like this to stay motivated.

Next-Gen, a feature-length animated movie on Netflix, was made almost ENTIRELY with Blender. Blender is FREE.
Skillshare plugs aside, this video makes me so freakin' excited. It is truly easier than ever to make your own CG animated stuff, and a future where we have 'indie' CG filmmakers breaking into the industry with golden-age-Pixar-quality work is a future I definitely want to live in. But remember Sturgeon's law: 90% of it will be crap. It's the 10% that we should be looking out for.
*And seriously, if you want to get started with this stuff, learn Blender. It is rendering, animation, video editing, compositing, sculpting, and texture painting, all in one. Incredible piece of software.
Next Gen is decent!
Jonothan Kolberg
Lol it is far from industry standard. They haven’t and won’t integrate blender because what works for kids learning cg things doesn’t work for a studio who needs industry standard programs at every point in the pipeline. If you think learning one complex program is hard imaging having to learn many.
@Jonothan Kolberg Indeed, they are not there yet. We have seen the same with editing software - there is a lot of free software around, but in the end it still comes down to Final Cut, Avid and Premiere whenever the workflow has to be kept compatible. And there it is not even open source trying to break into the market but well positioned companies like Blackmagic Design, and still they fail to deliver.
But it is undeniable that free software fails at a much higher level now and if you are willing to deal with the quirks, you can create a blender-fusion-renderman pipeline producing something impressive entirely free.
Oh, Next Gen? Isn't that the movie with the sentient self-cooking noodle bowls?
You'd know this if you watched the Blender Con 18 presentation by Tangent Animation ( ruclips.net/video/iZn3kCsw5D8/видео.html ) but... It WASN'T made "ENTIRELY" in Blender. the animation and modelling, layout, lighting and render was done in blender.
They used Substance Designer and a bit of blender for textures, Houdini for the water effects, fume fx for some particulate effects and a bit of Golem for some of the directed crowd work.

I was literally thinking about your channel 2 minutes ago and I came here and BOOM.. notification. 💜
Blender is awesome. It's a great piece of 3D animation software, that has multiple uses including regular video editing. I myself became aware of it after watching the short film Agent 327 on their RUclips channel. It's a great piece of software and I highly recommend checking it out to anyone just starting out in 3D animation or, as mentioned above, video editing. Though some editors consider Blender inefficient for video editing given it was designed from the beginning to be first and foremost a 3D animation tool, so I'd try it out for yourself just to be safe.
Caleb Richardson
Blender is inefficient at a lot of things because it just takes what it sees in many m better softwares and bastardizes it for free on their own software. It’s ok for kids learning but for anyone who wants a job in the industry at a high level studio I’d recommend getting actual programs.

While I can agree that a lot of the Technology involved is much more accessible nowadays, but there's still stuff that big movie studios have above a DIY team. They still have a lot of highly talented people who do the custom assets, animation, and storyboarding/directing that make a difference in the product. There's a reason why these movies still cost as much as they do, even with these technological advancements.
