Well some artist just have 10 or 11 layers in which 8 of them are for sketching, one is for the actual painting and the rest for effects. Maybe the original artist didn't do it this way but still I don't think that it would've saved him *that* much time.
Knkl is a youtuber who works as an artist for leage. He did a video on how splash animations works. Its a whole lot easier with the original file since its prepared to be manipulated. but damn this dude tho
@@darkersouls1155 its true, but I'm an artist and I used 232 layers on my last extremely detailed drawing but sadly this wouldn't help shit cause the layers really have no sense, it would just make it all harder in fact.
When I clicked on this I expected to see simple puppet animation but no... you actually rigged the whole thing and animated it so nicely... my biggest respect for that
My old friend works for Riot Games as a senior concept artist (zeronis) and I showed him this. He said many accomplices of his watched this video already. He also said it was insane. Good job you made a riot employee praise you for your work. :D
The work is stunning but I guess to tedious and not really usable. Say they want a different angle. Now he would need to repeat it all again. Where as with a 3d file the animation could be used almost as is and the camera is just shifted a bit
Half of the time taken is from cutting the parts out, if you're working with them you won't have to do that cause the artist will most likely pass you the layers already separated
@@gwentarinokripperinolkjdsf683 A lot of artists actually merge layers and just cut them off like this after. Cuz it eats so much space and memory. You have no choice but to merge.
@@Archeia That depends, I would believe that in a game dev setting you would have some kind of shared cloud storage so it wouldn't be a big deal at all to have it saved as separate components, it would probably even be required to ease the production of the gifs

@@purrleterian it kinda is. Making a static picture looks like something that riot made as an animation login screen is kind of portfolio worthy. Depends on what they are looking for. But in motion graphics, he has a good chance.
I find this process interesting. You're esentially cutting out pieces, painting to fill in gaps, adding a skeleton structure, and moving that around to animate it.
And tedious and hard. I've been trying to do this but limited to smaller things. Selecting and cutting is really hard especially filling the gaps organically. Used the puppet tool in After Effects since I don't have spine or know how to use it lol. Would be freakin fun to animate and rig it though.
@@Vastfill I know this is an old comment, but I'd figured I'd point it out anyways in case others have similar questions relating to the software Vaank used to create this animation loop.

You don't need art schools or any professional training - just tons of practice :) it mostly comes down to trial and error - experimenting and zooming in and out a LOT to see what looks good.
That’s because you can’t just copy technique, you need to know EVERYTHING. You need to colour match, know lighting, shading, how to colour and shade etc.
@@vethir Haha well, even if you progressively merge the layers for work each paint shape (Mireys do it a lot) I think you will keep at least the background layer..!

Holly molly I thought this was an official version of it Knowing this is a fanart just blow my mind The quality stand equally with the official version You're great
Holy fuck, this is talent! In the beginning, I was moderately impressed by watching the Photoshop work. This, coming from someone who's worked 10+ years doing photo-manipulation and advanced retouching jobs where I'd constantly be masking out objects and people, redrawing bodyparts, adding things back in and relighting/texturing to match, etc. After he threw it in spine works I figured he'd add in some minor motion but holy crap he was intensely rigging and animating each and everything very meticulously for quite some time. I skipped to the end in anticipation wanting to see the end result. Jeez, Not only was the animation expertly done and far exceeding what I'd thought possible for a still image. He went above and beyond with particles, light rays, shadows, the awesome butterfly movement, and natural blinking. I feel like this process could've really captured what the initial artist imagined. Wow, this could be an Advertisement for the Software used and this guy's career. I'm sold on it already. That was expertly done.
Thanks! But I don't think so, I really need to get into After Effects. But not bad for a one day fanart animation though, I could polish it way more, I just rushed it
@gamegod19 Actually the official one is natively 1440p :P. Still, solid work from Ivan, it shows the capabilities of Spine 2D. If this software had the control over the composition as AE does, i would quit AE at any time of the day xD.

when i stumbled upon this video 5 years ago i was only starting with digital art and this motivated me so much!! i didnt even realise there were so many techniques, principles and overall so much work and passion put into wonderful pieces like these!! 5 years later i am still in awe and nowhere near as good but im so glad i stuck around with art and had the pleasure of working on so many great things. needles to say, one day ill make it and ill learn even the wonders of adobe animate, thank you so much for showing this video to the world ❤❤❤
Nah. I can always remember the order of everything. It makes all sense to me without naming every layer when I work, but if you share a project with others: PLEASE NAME THE FRICKIN LAYERS OKAY
@@JustNatax3 I envy you. When I have 100 layers or even more I have no idea what is where, I have such a tight folder + naming structure to be sure I don't accumulate hours of just looking for what is where. Honestly I have trouble even with a few tens of layers without names, just imagining opening such a file days/weeks/months later and seeing no names frightens me. How do you keep all that information in your head for so long, is it photographic memory?
@@ViktorsJournal Oh come on, I do folders too... but I usually don't struggle with maybe 50 layers without naming and folders...? Maybe more? I never thought about it tbh. Hmm.. I kinda build a tiny relationship with every layer and usually know the structure and whereabouts. Maybe I am just too lazy to name amd folder everything and that's why I mentally keep track. I just know where everything is. Now that I think about it: I took part in a memory test series at a research lab at my university a few months ago, the ones where you get a minute to memorize as many pictures on a grid as possible, including their orders. I did the best in my test group of 30 people, meaning I also got paid the best for participating. Take from that what you will: But for what I can do in that area, I can't do with other areas of thinking. Dealing with mathematical problems for example... I have always been terrible at that. I am just pissed when people send me their stuff over to do something and it's not all well kept documented lol if you work on your own, you can do whatever, ... In the end you'd be the best group partner to have and I'd be the worst, unless I put some effort in. lol sorry for my bad English, I'm soo tired and ironically can't think of good vocabulary rn...
SO MUCH WORK. Im growing gray hair just by looking at it. Its sad one only get to see stuff like this for such a short amount of time. but I did watch it for a while before logging in :3 I loved it
Ive dumped entire projects into the "hiatus forever" folder before because of this, one of THE most frustrating things that you can screw up while doing digital art. Of course ive never done anything on this scale before and Im cringing so hard at the thought of all the wasted effort 😖
Holy shit. I can’t imagine how long that took. Edit: ok i know the description says 21 hours. I’m just an artist myself and I’m imagining the work itself and having the dedication and determination to do it.
21 hours of work. That doesn't mean he did everything in one day. He might worked a week (3h per day). It could easily be like a part time job and don't forget it's only for a couple of seconds. Idk how many days this took him but the final result is amazing
Ηλιας Λευκιας 1. The description says he rushed it in 2 days. 2 the title of the video says fan art so it wasn’t for a job. And 3 no mater how long he took to do it it still is a lot of work.
THIS is art, THIS is why I love art because MASTERPIECES like this are made. The time you did this in is amazing, mind boggling even how someone can do this is less than a day- it’s just shocking how TALENTED people are sometimes! You deserve more credit for how much work you put into these and deserve a god damn REWARD. Good job, keep up the amazing work.
Not going to lie I learned a ton from watching this, you separated each part you were going to animate. Fixed each of the pieces by painting on them, so they can be rigged. Then you rigged the pieces to the animation that it is now. I must say that's pretty smart.
dam this is insane, you animated neeko without even the photoshop file, just from an image. fascinating How much work behind a simple animation that usually us people dont even care about
Seriously, LoL ought to hire you to do this sort of stuff for their ads and art and stuff! This is amazing! Wow, I am genuinely baffled at your amazing skills! You definitely deserve more views and subs, for sure!
holy fuck that is bloody awesome. That was a lot of bloody work for a couple seconds but it looks bloody amazing and I hope you are proud of the fantastic work that you have done.
Bloody glad to hear that bloody news. Excuse my bloody lingo I'm a bloody Australian so I bloody use the bloody word bloody a bloody fuck ton. Sorry if it makes it bloody hard to bloody read
@@gadgetboyplaysmc I think animating a splash without the layers giving to you is only slightly less harder as making the cinematics. Once you have a full 3d Model, it's a lot less harder to worry about blocking of certain parts. It takes longer, sure, but once you have the models ready it's far easier and more flexible to work around 3d models. Animating a 2D image, specially one from an already flat image (not layered), is specially taxing when you have to thinking about "what was that arm blocking in the background?" or "is this part of the clothing plain or did it have decorations on it underneath the hand". Also, there's tons of 3D models online that are almost ready to go for your environment. I think 3D models are harder only because of the time you need to put into one model, but once you make the model, you don't have to redo the model with every single frame - you just have to move it around. With 2D animation, unless it's an animation with lot relatively static pose like this (Neeko moves, but her pose is relatively the same), every frame has to be redrawn. If the body turns a 180 degrees, you have to redraw the for all the frames that it's turning; the higher the framerate, the more times you'll have to redraw it. With 3D models, you need to only move the camera, or move the object itself to perceive it as "turning". That's it, you don't have to redraw it everytime, and you can just choose any framerate you want.
At the start, I had no idea what you were doing. I just thought you were just tracing it but the final product, that's just awesome all around. That's too dope for my vocabulary.
They dislike this because they couldn't do the same thing, so they deem this a lie and a forged illusion. This behavior is described by a single term: Jealousy.
@Actual Gus well I started League in 2017 so I already had a good computer. My bad time was from 2009 to 2013. I couldn't play GTA San Andreas on 60FPS
Who else played this at 0.25 speed and STILL needed to pause and play repeatedly to get it to go even slower to really study those sweet sweet details :) really enjoyed watching the rigging elements too :)
Imagine spending hours drawing and illustration and have someone bring it to life. Absolutely gobsmacked! As you were doing this I visualized what the final product would look like and I tell you, it's better than what I imagined. During the video I was literally thinking what if someone did this a few days after an illustration was released, then I read the description. You've outdone yourself mate.

Not Photoshop at all. *He is fucking good with colors and animating in spine!*
Holy fuck, this is talent!
In the beginning, I was moderately impressed by watching the Photoshop work. This, coming from someone who's worked 10+ years doing photo-manipulation and advanced retouching jobs where I'd constantly be masking out objects and people, redrawing bodyparts, adding things back in and relighting/texturing to match, etc.
After he threw it in spine works I figured he'd add in some minor motion but holy crap he was intensely rigging and animating each and everything very meticulously for quite some time. I skipped to the end in anticipation wanting to see the end result.
Jeez, Not only was the animation expertly done and far exceeding what I'd thought possible for a still image. He went above and beyond with particles, light rays, shadows, the awesome butterfly movement, and natural blinking. I feel like this process could've really captured what the initial artist imagined.
Wow, this could be an Advertisement for the Software used and this guy's career. I'm sold on it already. That was expertly done.
Woah thanks a lot for your kind words 😊
Better than official
Thanks! But I don't think so, I really need to get into After Effects. But not bad for a one day fanart animation though, I could polish it way more, I just rushed it
@gamegod19 Actually the official one is natively 1440p :P. Still, solid work from Ivan, it shows the capabilities of Spine 2D. If this software had the control over the composition as AE does, i would quit AE at any time of the day xD.
@gamegod19 Gotcha.

And that kids is why you name your frikin layers ...
Pornstar Shrimp What do you mean? It’s not like she had trouble with the layers + it won’t make a different if you knew which layer is which.
Nah. I can always remember the order of everything. It makes all sense to me without naming every layer when I work, but if you share a project with others: PLEASE NAME THE FRICKIN LAYERS OKAY
@@JustNatax3 I envy you. When I have 100 layers or even more I have no idea what is where, I have such a tight folder + naming structure to be sure I don't accumulate hours of just looking for what is where. Honestly I have trouble even with a few tens of layers without names, just imagining opening such a file days/weeks/months later and seeing no names frightens me. How do you keep all that information in your head for so long, is it photographic memory?
@@ViktorsJournal Oh come on, I do folders too... but I usually don't struggle with maybe 50 layers without naming and folders...? Maybe more? I never thought about it tbh. Hmm.. I kinda build a tiny relationship with every layer and usually know the structure and whereabouts. Maybe I am just too lazy to name amd folder everything and that's why I mentally keep track. I just know where everything is. Now that I think about it: I took part in a memory test series at a research lab at my university a few months ago, the ones where you get a minute to memorize as many pictures on a grid as possible, including their orders. I did the best in my test group of 30 people, meaning I also got paid the best for participating. Take from that what you will: But for what I can do in that area, I can't do with other areas of thinking. Dealing with mathematical problems for example... I have always been terrible at that.
I am just pissed when people send me their stuff over to do something and it's not all well kept documented lol if you work on your own, you can do whatever, ...
In the end you'd be the best group partner to have and I'd be the worst, unless I put some effort in. lol

Not going to lie I learned a ton from watching this, you separated each part you were going to animate. Fixed each of the pieces by painting on them, so they can be rigged. Then you rigged the pieces to the animation that it is now. I must say that's pretty smart.

Damn the hard work always show up in a bright way ☺️ awesome .....those ton of layering were so detailed 🤯
Wow never thought abou how much work goes into those login screen animations
Now... imagine the cinematics. Even more work I think. It's quite intimidating to think about.
@@gadgetboyplaysmc I think animating a splash without the layers giving to you is only slightly less harder as making the cinematics. Once you have a full 3d Model, it's a lot less harder to worry about blocking of certain parts. It takes longer, sure, but once you have the models ready it's far easier and more flexible to work around 3d models. Animating a 2D image, specially one from an already flat image (not layered), is specially taxing when you have to thinking about "what was that arm blocking in the background?" or "is this part of the clothing plain or did it have decorations on it underneath the hand". Also, there's tons of 3D models online that are almost ready to go for your environment. I think 3D models are harder only because of the time you need to put into one model, but once you make the model, you don't have to redo the model with every single frame - you just have to move it around. With 2D animation, unless it's an animation with lot relatively static pose like this (Neeko moves, but her pose is relatively the same), every frame has to be redrawn. If the body turns a 180 degrees, you have to redraw the for all the frames that it's turning; the higher the framerate, the more times you'll have to redraw it. With 3D models, you need to only move the camera, or move the object itself to perceive it as "turning". That's it, you don't have to redraw it everytime, and you can just choose any framerate you want.
