Terrifying creatures, wicked surprises and dark comedy converge in this NSFW anthology of animated stories presented by Tim Miller and David Fincher. Развлечения
This episode was probably one of the coolest animation styles I've ever seen
It made me comtemplate EVERYTHING
nah
the short about smart yogurt was better
Mysteryguy Iscool it had its own flow and the story was funny but it’s animation style is fairly common
And this is why we all should watch into the spider verse
digidragon02 Into the spiderverse is fkin dope too
I would watch an hour-long documentary on the making of just this short film
Michael Soutar just an hour long?🙂
@@ahmdo8485 why not 2 hours?
@@Emilianateicheira maybe 2 and a half
where?
Why not a year long
I am a 3d modeler and i was fooled half the time by this episode, i thought it was a mix of 3d and live action
Mike Asterios wasn’t it? Was expecting to see real actors on this video. Crazy.
F*ck, deleted last comment by accident. The animation was keyframed on top of real-time footage with real actors so they could have reference motion. Same way "A scanner darkly" was done, but with naked 3d models instead of 2d drawings. Clothes were animated with physics.
@@nikkopt mmm, interesting)
Mike Asterios this had to be some new rotoscoping technique
@@nikkopt seriously i was looking for this. Usually the motion of people is a huge give away for CGI even if the modeling/lighting/texturing is top notch, but the animation in this one instantly jumped at me with how accurate their movements are.
This episode was crazy
aditya paul there can only be one of us
Haha, aaaahhh (finger guns, finger guns).
*laughs in aqula rift*
I still cant wrap my damn mind around how this is possible. The damn lighting, the animations. Jesus christ. Give us a MAKING OF!
its probably motion capture or roto of some kind. Doesnt make it super easy but it honestly impresses me much less than bespoke animation.
@@ALPHAHXCORE it's not motion capture the creative team tells
movement looked so real
yes please
@@ALPHAHXCORE Isn't mocap. Director confirmed it's all keyframed.
Animators : so how much realism do you wanna add to these animations ?
Netflix : yes
I think they look more real because they are a little bit cartoony. In a good way. The "devil" character is exaggerated in clothes and makeup, the man (at 0:33) and the main woman have big eyes and some touches that isnt really realistic but this take them away of the uncanny valley like the characters in the aquila rift episode.
@@augusto7681 yeah totally agree, when something tries to be completely realistic, its easier to spot that weird lip movement or whatever and think "weeeeird, are you trying to fool me?", that happens in Aquila´s, and thats why I think this one feels more real
lol
DEDSEC R13 The director has confirmed that none of it was mo-caped, all hand animated. Pretty amazing!
@@augusto7681 For minutes i thinked the animation in aquila was live action
Netflix needs to fund and produce more anthology short series! Consumers are craving badass bite-sized content like this.
It was more David Fincher, and them letting him do whatever he wants. The only thing I would credit Netflix for is the platform.
@@shaneconnelly8932 I should have known Fincher had a hand in this. Everything he touches is gold!
Quibi's pitch.
And look how bad the second season is.
@@nicksushkevich 3rd season is lack luster too :(
this cloth simulation is so freaking realistic, I can't believe my eyes.
Неужели это реально на 100% анимация? Местами настолько бросается в глаза- будто переходы от реальных съёмок к 3D, или совмещение/наложение 0_о
@Alex Carlito + they built the entire animation pipeline, since Marvelous doesn't have that on its own, which is even more insane. In a way, I'd almost call it revolutionary, looking at the quality they delivered us.
@Alex Carlito Cool. I'm learning the basics of it later this week, so I'm hyped for it :D
It's not overly complicated to do. Marvelous designer had great cloth design and sim tools for a while, but there wasn't much flexibility.
I'm most excited about Houdini for cloth now. Houdini had extreme flexibility and power for all kinds of simulations and procedular modeling, but it's cloth solvers and tools weren't as good until recently. Now Houdini got Vellum simulator and we are now able to do cloth sims in Houdini that interact with any kinds of solvers including grain. Right now if you design something in Marvelous and then import it to Houdini, you will get the wizard level of control over simulations. We are talking about tearing it apart, shooting it into a sandstorm from a cannon, simulating individual muscles, skin and hair and then having all that interact with cloth, making a rubber balloon, blowing it with water and then sitting on it and it exploding, dropping a node and having 100 concurrent simulations automatically generated with slightly different parameters and rendered into a movie file as collage so that you can compare them. It's totally insane what you can do there.
The insane part comes not only from flexibility but from proceduralism. Simulations still have some artistic part to them, they are not purely physics based. But if you can do them proceduraly you can simulate 100 versions of the same things with slightly different parameters as a collage and then choose which looks the best to you, and if you can iterate fast using this process, you can arrive at extremely good results.
Anyways, I think what sucked for a while were pipelines and tools. With good tools a lot is possible already. Even human simulations. Look at Ziva VFX for Maya. They simulate everything from skeleton to muscles and skin in insane detail. But it's just not as accessible to mere mortal artists and it's not as flexible as, let's say, Houdini. A lot of it becomes not about simulation per say, but about modeling the most minutia of details. If software packages Houdini were to eventually provide tools to procedural generate humans and animate them from bone to skin, it would be insane what you could do there.
@@jonwise3419 Damn, it really seems I need to do more research in this part. I'm mostly a visdev artist/character designer, but since I'm doing some Clo3D now and Marvelous soon, I want to broaden my toolbox a bit. Seems I need to look into Houdini a bit more as well, thanks to you!
Jibaro and The Witness by far my favorites episodes of the whole series. The animation quality and tech are one of a kind in the industry
Scrolled the comments looking for this! After watching a dozen of highly ranked episodes of the show these two were the most touching, idk why. It appeared they are made by the same producer and the same actress. Probably there is something else common, hard to tell, it is just a pure pleasure to watch.
Both were directed by Alberto Mielgo. You can feel his vibe in these 2 stories: lots of realistic and sudden movements, very detailed surroundings, closed up shots on running, there are always a chase or 2, and very very few words/dialogues and most importantly, so very visually stunning.
The aquila (?) rift episode is also right up there with these two. My jaw was on the floor the whole time with the animations from these episodes
Aquila Rift Also ❤️
Search Alberto Mielgo ;)
This was my fav of all ! reminds me Spiderverse animation and the history was so crazy.
thanks Netflix for giving us more content with so much quality like this
It is the same team of animators who did Spiderverse.
It was the same director
@@Leadweight2 oh wow really? Is it quiet outside of the usual zone of world styles then, even if they have done work in this software and style type before.
the guy who painted the backgrounds in the witness (yes those are paintings) also worked on spiderverse.
alberto mielgo baby
This episode reminded me of Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse, but a bit more realistic.
same character designer!
Alberto mielgo the director for this was one of the early art directors for the spider verse, that guy is crazy good
!!!!!
Yes!
A bit ?
The highlight of the year for me. This is true art and netflix shows us that they have the courage to go this risk. Thank you netflix and all the artist for this master peace. This is a important moment for every independent film maker!
Some people critic Netflix for beign risk and take some "pieces of sh***" but i like it
Yo their studio just dropped another episode on season 3 titled "jibaro".
Can video game companies hire these guys for cinematic and stuff?
Probably, though it's very expensive and it'd be unlikely they did any work outside of making a trailer for the game.
For you info blur studio company that did this is itself a topnotch game cinematics provider
Square Enix already make CGI trailers of this quality, they recently made a full CGI movie called Kingsglaive based on the FFXV videogame. Another good one is obviously Blizzard.
The first episode’s character designs were by the same character designer for Dishonored.
The animator of this also worked with Sony in the making of "Spiderman into the spider-verse". It has a similiar animation style. Watch it if you get the chance
Really? That's it? C'mon Netflix, if you're gonna show, show everything.
Real disappointed in this video. I was really excited to get a glimpse into how my favorite LD&R short (animation-wise) was made. Instead we get a video that shows us nothing. I got more insight from the title of the video than I did from actually watching it.
You should see the show then.
@@bryanskscion2229 What do you mean by that?
Did you see the episode on Netflix..? Not youtube on Netflix.
@@bryanskscion2229 I already watched all the shortfilms and some of them a lot of times. But this video doesn't show anything about it's creation
WITNESS and Jibaro blew my mind. Amazing lighting and style and animation. It feel like real life at times and others just a moving piece of artwork
I really want to know how did they made such realistic background in 0:19, I mean it's a real place in Hong Kong, and I went there quite often before. Like wow.
i think it's more of a blend of both real n animation...superb, right..best episode
its real film painted over frame by frame, someone already talked about this just can't remember where.
@@Fadlinification I'm sure it's rendered. Look at the reflections of stairs. It's too perfect, which generally a sign of a rendered environment. The real world would has more imperfections (including in specular and roughness texture). Trees are clearly rendered / drawn. The building is probably procedurally generated based on photo inspirations.
@@jonwise3419 wow..crazy work had been put for this episode. I trust you with your knowledge. Idk anything about animations, just assuming as it's so perfect and awesome. Would love to see a full length movie based on this style! Who agrees???
@@Fadlinification One of the most fascinating thing about 3D graphics to me is that at some point realism starts to become more about imperfections rather than perfection. We try to desperately clean our apartments, but a 3D artist who's into photorealism desperately tries to add dust and micro scratches on surfaces. A woman tries to put makeup to hide variations in her skin texture, but a character artist trying to do photoreal tries to add that variation, even a birthmark here and there, simulate small invisible hairs which her face is covered with and we don't really see but which still reflect a light differently; a woman would probably prefer to remove all of it, but a character artist trying to fool you into believing that something in real tries to add those things even for characters which are supposed to be extremely attractive. A woman tries to perk her breasts up, but an artist into realism would add some natural sag into them, even if the goal is to make her attractive.
With Ray Tracing we already can fully emulate light exactly how it would behave in the real world and we can produce extremely clean results. So, the trick becomes adding all those imperfections and how you do it. And it still can be pretty hard and that what usually can give it away that it's not a photo.
But at the same time you want things which are clean reflective or shiny it your scene because that's what computer games struggle with. So a brain is used to computer graphics having certain look due to limits of rasterization (which is the method to generate computer graphics in games). Rasterization is bad at light bouncing off things and tracking how it changes, so it's bad at realistic looking specular things, realistic transparency and seeing reflections and reflections within reflections. So there's this instinct to polish things or add glassy objects when using Ray Tracing that can render those things really well to trick the brain into believing that it's not CG because CG in computer games is bad at those things.
But when you get used to Ray Tracing being capable of those things, you start to look for other things which are still very tedious to perfect, like imperfections and whether their variation matches how a thing would wear in real life.
Alberto mielgo and the whole team behind The Witness should definetly win or at least be a candidate for this year Oscar on animation for a short movie. the way they managed the art style and the un-fuckIng-belivable animation, lightning and cloth simulation on The Witness is uncanny.
Alberto Mielgo is the best damn animator out there!!! Jíbaro will blow your mind...
Just saw "Jibaro", and this studio is amazing!!!

Da Vinci Resolve and more than 50 different Plug-ins they must have used to create this amazing animation. Congratulations
Thank you!!
You are a god! I was amazed by this work and I wanted to learn most cg behind this. I'm an architect and architectural cg designer and I really want to know their renderer.
I WANT MORE:Love Death and Robots....I love this
Much more!!!!!!
Oh we all want more it was great please show these studios that ANIMATION IS FOR ADULTS.
Season 2 is in production!
This is my favorite show ever!!!!!!
ME TOO!!!!!!
I watched the whole damn episode and im still questioning if some of it was live action or not
its all key frame animation.
The first thing I did after watching this episode (and rewatching) was to look for a making of. I want 1 hour of making of, not 1 minute, hahaha.
THIS IS WHY I LOVED THE THIRD EPISODE BEYOND ALL ELSE
Best of the lot. Meticulously insane piece of art right here. Loved it! ❤️
The artstyles.
I can't say I love one over the other.
They are simply amazing
The dance scene from this episode is my favorite of the series. I was high asf that night and it just competly stimulated all my senses
The visual style of this episode blew me away. I have never seen anything like it, i was absolutely captivated
I thought the whole episode was rotoscoped! The fluid movements and the physics are just amazing!!!!!
Me too.. i thought they use AI filter to replace human face and add some sketch like effects on the edge of the skin.
the camera work on this episode was just brilliant. It switches between calm and aggressive pretty often and creates a really unique style.
An entire movie in this art style would be insane
This one was so intense, perfect blend of both art direction and the story!
What a masterpiece!
This was the type of content worth my money. Netflix. THIS is what we want.
In this video there's more finished footage that we've already seen than "making of" stuff
It's like watching a video game cutscene but the entire show is video game cutscenes
The Witness was my favorite... I want to see more of this girl
This one was out and out the best realistic animation of humans I have seen. I rewatch this again and again and it amazes me every time.
Her beauty and the impressive realistic animation is what led me to watch this show. Absolutely lovely character design.
it took me so long to finish this episode because i was constantly replaying scenes or just pausing to marvel at the mind blowing animation ! the art style reminds me of into the spiderverse which i absolutely adored .
Replaying the sofa scene? Be honest 😜
The team that did this episode also worked on into the spiderverse so that's kinda why lol
The second episode is by far my favorite 😂 hope they make more with them
This short was amazing in terms of art direction and animation!
This is STILL 10 years ahead of it's time. Greatest short film in a very long time
This really makes me want to ditch everything I'm doing in college right now and go for a degree in 3D modeling
There's so many people working on the industry that didn't finish college.
@@viriel6349 Imo doing art is never a matter of education. Not a single university can teach you how to be creative, and that's what art is about. The technical aspects can be set aside.
@@nano7586 sure, but if you don’t know how to use your tools, your creativity is somewhat limited. And maybe you don’t need that many complex tools. You surely aren’t producing THIS level or art without that knowledge though.
This is beautiful
I LOVE THIS SM
I LOVE LOVE DEATH ROBOTS!! all of the different animations and stories are so amazing and unique!!
Amazing series. Please make more of these. Sublime really.
This style needs to be a whole movie!
He worked on spiderman into the spiderverse!
Warner bros need this make movie punchline 3D animated
I honestly thing this episode deserved an award cause my jaw was on the floor and my eyes were glued to the screen the second it started.
the team made a reeeeaaaly great tecnical work, good job guys and thanx for bringing us those beautifull visuals!
This episode made me want to run around the block naked but only with a kimono
💀💀
I can’t believe this was all animation
What I love the most about this film is the CLOTH. They're so beautifully done
Netflix we need more of this. So beautiful!
This episode was fucking epic. Hands down one of the coolest animation styles I’ve ever seen.
This video should be longer! 💖
This kinda settled up the quality of animations to a new level, the werewolf and achilla episodes were amazing too. I'm really impressed! I'd love to see more about it and making off too.
The best thing you've come up with so far.
Awesome Cutting Edge Series!!
I fell in love with the Host lol 😂
I’ve watched this short like 20 times now and I still can’t believe it’s keyframed and not rotoscoped
possibly my favorite episode, you get completely thrown into a big colorfull chaos and you're hooked the whole time
Masterpiece!
This was good, we need a season 2
season 2 is disappointing
had this in my list for ages, should definitely watch asap!!!♥️
Best episode of the series!! I loved the music and the aesthetic!!
Amazing visuals. I honestly can't tell if the 'performance' was live action or not. We need Season 2!
Apparently the witness had no mocap whatsoever
They did film live actors doing the scenes and then used that footage as reference during keyframing. No live action was used in the actual animation though.
Had to watch this on 0.25 speed to take it all in and it still wasn't slow enough
Was waiting for this :)
this episode was incredible, beautiful.
can you do like a 3 hour documentary on making of this whole series??
This is amazing but obviously not enough. There should be a whole other series about the making of those animations, seriously.
This is the most amazing cg work I,ve ever seen
I wanted like a 20-30min long making of for this short, but thanks for at least giving us some idea.
I want to see the other way around as well.
I watched the whole series on a Sunday. The best Sunday ever. Waiting for Season 2 eagerly.
Ok, what kind of wizardry is this? The animation and style in this episode is unreal. A big thumbs-up from me...👍
We literally could not figure out wether everything in that episode was animated, or just the characters. Amazing work!
Please continue to use Hong Kong as background.
This series reminded me of Heavy Metal.
The anthology was based off the magazine! Good catch!
Only just recently completed the first series of the love death and robots collection, and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long. Absolutely incredible work across-the-board, and season two is proving to be the same. I really hope to do work like this someday.
The animation looks incredibly real. What a masterpiece!
So when is season 2?
Are you gonna release a Making of on natflix?

Go watch it.
Second season working please
Loved this series, need more shows like this
This animation was mind-blowing! By far one of the funkiest one I've seen! Bravo... Now we need more of that lol
I would love see see feature film from this studio. Something cyberpunk maybe.
Like into the spider verse?
@@gromann yeah but not from comic, maybe they can do altercarbon.

I saw , Zbrush, Marvelous designer.... anyone?
I've seen this and I still am blown away and so confused how they did everything. Amazing.
We need another one of these
