Hope you don't mind the question: I've been thinking of E-mailing Squared Media to try and pitch an idea. Do you know if that's something they'll even consider?
@@Tossler sorry for late response. Um, depends, but probably not if you mean story ideas. As individual contractors we all just make our own stuff with full creative freedom. Usually if someone wants a particular story to be done, you have to do it yourself cause animation takes too gosh dang long to ever have time to get to other people’s ideas.
Thank you for reminding me why I downloaded blender to begin with. Squared Media (once Black Plasma Studios) drew me back into minecraft animation after.. *that* year..
Indonesian minecraft players be eating because there are a group of animators that do a Minecraft Rewind. Similar to a YT Rewind, it compiles every aspect that make that year memorable, the difference being there is an actual story going on within each rewind. Pretty fun
10:14 you can't just hit me with THAT part of Chrisrin's Hermitcraft S8 Finale Animation - How Far We've Come and put cheery music over it man, what the hell /lh
genuinely amazing minecraft video essay, i don’t think i’ve ever seen cover like this topic before. personally being a (please forgive me) mineimator animator i really loved this video. awesome stuff, keep it up! ❤
I've always been fascinated with Minecraft animations (especially the ones from the early to mid-2010's) and I'm glad to see someone finally take the time to analyze and talk about them. I'm currently working on a similar project breaking down the ones I personally grew up with and I hope to finish it soon and share with others.
I love creating Animations with Blockbuster, although I will switch to Blender soon. Thx for this informative Video about the Minecraft Animation community!
They did say why. Because they see so many good fanmade animateds. They want to try different. This is why they chosent live action. You can find more minecraft live 2024. They will still working live action movie
I'm honestly surprised you didn't mention Songs of War by Black Plasma Studios! It's a wonderfully well crafted 3-d animated story set in the world of Ardonia, using Minecraft as a basis for the world and animation! Top notch stuff, please go give it a watch when you have time!
Also, do not take this as me faulting you for not mentioning it because... dear gods you had to summarize and leave out a LOT in this if you didn't want a long video, there's only so much you can mention in a little over 15min. But to whom it may concern/if anyone is looking for the types of SMPs to spawn lots of animatics and animations like the ones mentioned at 10:10 (HC, dsmp, lifesteal), I'd like to throw the life series _(3rd life, last life, double life, limited life, secret life, the april fools season real life, and potentially a new season that's starting this week??)_ into the mix! It's made by a few of the Hermitcraft members and some non-hermit friends of theirs _(those other members being Lizzie LDShadowlady, Bigb, Jimmy Solidarity, Martyn Inthelittlewood, Scott Smajor, as well as Joel Smallishbeans and Skizzleman until recently when they became Hermits)_ and has spawned incredible fanworks all around. Fanart, fanfic, cosplay, some music - and of course, animation. I struggle to pick out highlights in terms of animations or animators in the fandom, as there's just so much good stuff, but I would be crazy not to mention our beloved Rusty_Courage who has done a whole bunch of awesome works such as the BANG! Last Life AMV, the eight part Secret Life in a Nutshell series and Earth SL Finale Animatic, the DANCIN Life Series Animation, and one of my personal favorites, the TIME'S UP! Life Series AMV There's also Chrisrin with Curses and The Other Side, along with a couple smaller videos. (Plus, not life series related but his How Far We've Come Hermitcraft S8 Finale Animation is insane) Noxolotl is another pretty well-known name within the community, with Here we go!, Perception Check and a few other animations of clips As is Everen with Who are you really?, Everybody wants to rule the world, Running up that Hill, Battle Cry and Feed the Machine Bee Applestruda is primarily known for their gorgeous artwork (CC Impulse even has an artwork of theirs hanging on the wall where him and Skizz record their podcast!) but she uploaded the Scars Desert Duo animatic a while ago Absolutely Studios with their All Deaths In LEGO series Three-eyed hex! with Canary in a Coal Mine and W.I.T.C.H. Tubby with Shut UPPP Love!!!, Grian's Questionable Guardian Angel and How Can I forgive You? mansa1212 with God Must Hate Me Persefida with 5 Stages of Grian And I could go on for days... I've probably already missed some fairly iconic ones haha Anyhow, that's all! I just wanted to share some awesome works from my corner of MCYT :] (bonus: not an animation thing but "I Turned Double Life Into a Song" and the other songs in that series of tracks by Evil Anvil are also very much beloved. they take voice clips from the actual series and somehow turn them into awesome songs, it's fascinating)
I'd also like to add on to this comment with 3rd Life The Musical, a very small group of people who are working to turn the 3rd Life SMP into a musical! They've got some demo tracks up currently focusing on the Desertduo, my personal favourite is Scarred For Life :)
I wish i was in this video tho, i took my inspiration from older animations. Especially element animation. But you still acknowledged all animators and it makes me feel so motivated as a small animator. Thank you bro Also you might wanna take another look at mine-imator... 2.0 community build does way more than you think
One amazing set of Minecraft Animations (whilst the main character's aren't from Minecraft and are from a different series) is the Animation vs. Minecraft series by Alan Becker. I'm surprised you didn't touch upon it here!
honestly, i came late to find this masterpiece of a video but you're right, zamination can't be fairly be considered a content farm, i used to enjoy it when i was younger, they do high quality animations, even if they just want the views form the trends, at least they have a special quality. i can't believe you just have 8k subs, because you deserve way more
One channel that is so SO SO GOOD is alan beckers animation vs minecraft series. iv been watching since the second episode of animation vs animator series. But my GOD they cook with every episode. The stick figures dont speak at all and yet the storys they tell is crazy as hell. The king orange arch especially. 10000% suggest watching.
YOOOOOO, i remember watching the In-game audio sync video to help me learn how to use the audio for blockbuster! Much love dude! keep up the great work
Pretty sure the reason why Element Animations... Well, animations look so similar to the update trailers is because they also animated the update trailers
I tried to do Minecraft animation in the past, but I feel like I’m not good enough to be a Minecraft animator due to mine being compared to Chris Chan's art and moved on to animating Maya. I am a Female Animator Chris Chan as a matter of fact.
i loved this so very much well done but can you please do a part 2 of this and maybe check out more Minecraft animators such as Rainimator,EthanAnimatez and ZNathan Animations they are amazing animators in there own way. can you please talk more about them and maybe there journey to where they are today. jeffvix is another amazing animator that dose not get enough attion for how hard he works on his animations.
I feel like ZAMination was really glossed over here especially in terms of their older works and hell works before Fazbear and Friends. Their work wasn't just for kids watch any animation like After Show and its an animation with darker ideas with gore in it and it was directed by ZAM
Many content farms have high quality The definition of content farming is to try and farm views from popular media so Zamination is technically in this category because of how they manage there videos
Compare to majority, there is only a few channels that actually produce high quailty content framing, my definition of content farming is videos people put without putting any effort and make within seconds, zamination does fall under the content farm category but their quailty is enough for me not to call them one
@@Sebushtin_Bush I’m just letting you now the actual definition of content farming as weather the content is good or not doesn’t matter channels like The Rubber are considered largely content farming for how they exploit views I just want to correct you as Zam was a content farm (They Aren’t Anymore) but they were so anyways I just wanted to correct you I need to go make excuses to nog upload
Should you do a part 2 Could you include the evolution of mine imator? Mine imator started of with many limits and it was not liked at all Now its evolved alot and animators like BeinBian, EthanAnimatez and randystres have broken limits Even though its so good now not many people like to use it because of its past
There was a lot of animations and channels that I was sadly unable to fit it all in one video but I might make a part with way more channels with this video does amazing
@@Sebushtin_Bush Personally I would love any youtuber to react to Mob Squad, like, it deserves at least one more season, of course the story was perfect the way it is, and it must not be forgotten (of course the fact that it's for mature public lol)
Regarding Zamination. The only reason they use the vaige style of Minecraft is because it's cheaper and easier to animate. If you ask yourself "Why does this use the Minecraft style if this video has nothing to do with it?" Then it's just to decrease production costs. Zaminaton is also owned/affiliated with enchanted mob... AKA mob games. The creators of Poppy playtime. Hence, why they use poppy playtime characters in alot of their animations. They don't really care about the source material unlike Element animation.
5:57 Simply, 4 words Springtrap kills purple guy Bon Bon gets lost Like why is puppet and purple guy on a date in the background The fnaf aspect isn’t looking great… -A slightly aggravated fnaf fan
Zanimation is label as content farm because they're using any characters from games or shows that popular with kids, titles and thumbnails are straight up lies that have nothing to do with the video, and are reusing old videos to create mixes of videos to make more watch times. Which are two crimes against RUclips guidelines. And behind the scenes was straight up toxic. Now don't get me wrong, I love there quality and they do try to make it original, but quality has dropped since Fazbear and frends. During there weekly short uploads there videos just seem to focus on being loud then funny. I am glad they moved away from weekly random shorts and focus on making great music videos again.
This was such a fun watch! Thanks for the kind words too :D

Slamacow is just the best no comparison
minecraft animation is truly peak
and then theres the minecraft movie
It was genius to call the ingame animation program Blockbuster.

That solidifies your point much more.
