bro is carrying the worldwide animation people into japan anime industry
As an animator working in this industry without knowing too much Japanese, this is super helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for making this!! I find myself always coming back to your videos, they're really helpful.
For those who don't Know A retake is a revision to animation done after animation is completed. This means a shot or sequence has to go through the whole process depending on the severity of the fix or change that needs to be done. You don't want too many of these because they can slow down production and take away resources especially if shots need to be reanimated. 2:31
Best animation RUclips channel ever 👏

Ya forgot the other japanese animation terms like "Compound". "Balance IB(in-between," "DoT(Trace)". And Cel layer terms like " Cel letter_sita" , "Cel letter_go"
The way the Japanese anime industry adapted these English terms to their own is kinda cute 😅
Why? How?
Thank you for the helpful content Dong
thank you dong, this will help me for future work
This is very usefull
thank you
i wish studios them selves collab on making an animation pipline guide book translated in english and free so anyone who joins the industry dont need to be troubled with production issues
thank you so much i wish this vid existed 2 years ago when i started working
For those who wonder why 「クリスタ」 is for clip studio paint is because「クリスト」stands for christ.
Actually it's because they pronounce the borrowed word "Studio" as "Sutajio" and not "Sutojio". Thus, Kuri+suta.
Dong Chang your professional art makes me wanna start drawing again
same, but until we write "Is making me draw again" we will probably continue to not do it enough....if at all.
@@lofwyr5063 lol that's too real
Not only did I learned some new Japanese terms, but English terms as well.
Thank you so much! 🙏 Very relevant for me)
luv ur videoss
Thank you for this video. I am working on some basic animation tutorials. Now i can write the right terms for my videos.
Wow! 3:29 The Sakuga Director must also mean the animation director, too, but readjusts the character animator’s rough and clean-up animation drawings into one bunch of on-model pages per section.
You are the best mentor ever
el video estuvo interesante :D:D dong chang, this video it's great for new animators on japanese style animation
Thank you🙏
thank you now i can finally read anime credit sequences
hi, I love your RUclips channel and I think it would be cool to make a video on how to send a cut professionally to a studio!
Personally I haven't found any videos on this subject.
thank god can't find the book tonari did for that
3:46 I always saw this in every anime credits, and I always wondered, exactly what they were photographing. I don't get why they would call compositing that though, lol.
Because before digital film, the concept of "compositing" did not exist. Individual elements were layed out and exposed to a real life CAMERA which photographed them to a film, thus creating a frame. Remember there are many more anime and anime studios that worked for ~50 years in traditional animation, so terms like that tend to stick around.
@GarudaPSN now that makes a lot of sense. Thanks.
I always love learning that certain fx conventions have actual names. Do you know if there is a name for the heat-wave distortion effect they use on scenes with high heat sources ie; lava, deserts, jet engines etc?
doing god's work, thanks and keep it up 🔥🔥🔥
What's the term for the really detailed stuff? Is there one? Like Garden Of Words or something?
Love it.
Please teach how to animate run cycle from front view please🙏🙏
9:48 What is the actual difference ?
Such a hard working
what does it mean when an animator gets credited as sakuga instead of genga? For example in Jojo op 2, Naoki Yoshibe gets credited as such
From what I could tell, that credited gets used when a person does the animation solo. But not always.
Please make a video about color and shadow blending in animation.
Thnx for the video it's help me a lot❤ and one more thing which software is best for animation on laptop?
If you want to make anime like animations, I think Clip Studio Paint and OpenToonz are good. I believe he's made tutorials with both softwares, and the latter one is entirely free
@@flmejndor thnx buddy ❤️
The boy and the heron used opentoonz for animation, clean up, and color. It also has stroke order tweening. Cacani is used for clean up. Trigger and David productions and sunrise Studios use it.
Clip studio for layout and key animation.
Look into olm for the ae plug ins but knowing opentoonz is a big help.
Cheers
I paused at Katto Bukuro because I am wondering how the digital version of the material in this folder is handled? Is there a computer folder that serves the same purpose?
Gracias dong otra vez, podria subir mas adelante sobre composición en after effect como movientos de camara y movimiento de reflejos o sombras, gracais por tus videos
I'm trusting you on that pitch accent...
kattokomakomauchi
do you thing can do a video on all the animation materials like the yellow animation paper and the White paper and peg holder thingy the paper sits on just what they’re called cause I can’t find theme anywhere.
He talks about the different coloured paper in his first genga video
@@HiHi-oc3ghlink ? I’m a beginner animator and only use regular drawing paper but wondering what that yellow and white paper with 3 different sized holes is called I have searched for weeks 😢

You don’t really need to know what the different colour paper is bc it just represents different staff's corrections. The paper with holes is animation paper. The holes are to make sure the pages line up when you’re animating
Treasure channel.
Thank you. I have started simple animations recently and I doubt, how do you gradually change skin tone in animations? When a character is suffocating their skin color gradually changes to purple or when a character gets embarrassed their face gradually changes to pink. do you do this shift in skin tone in clip studio paint or in After Effects?

my favourite term is ブラシ
Hi, really appreciate your channel man, learned a lot binging your videos, I have a rather long question for this comment section which I sent you on twitter, but I guess you dont really use it so in case you see this comment, would really appreciate if you can check your dms. Keep going with these videos!
What about uranuri?is that same of color trace line?
Although uranuri and tracelines often go hand in hand in Douga, they're different. 'ura' means intra while 'nuri' means painting, so 'Uranuri' means 'intrapainting', which are basically AREAS painted in red, blue or any other colors(or it can refers to the action of doing this). Trace lines are just LINES. Correct me if I'm wrong.
What kind of software is this ??
You never reply my chats on Twitter, or my comments on RUclips
Please I want to start out drawing genga

Can you share knowledge about how layers are usually setup on an anime animation? Like maybe, how the base head is separate from the hair and/or maybe the hair is compose of several layers as well an so on. I'm currently studying the eye anatomy of anime characters and looking closely at it, it seems like it is drawn and colored using different layers. I wish I could see how the animation industry experts would setup such thing and how they usually do it on the different parts of the character.
