    These camera motions are complex. I learned parallax scrolling creates moving backgrounds, but it does not account for rotating camera movements. Drawing the background frame by frame like you seems tedious, but this tutorial was the kick in the ass I needed to step my game up. Thanks for being a constant inspiration.

    A very labor intensive method. But the feeling of 3D really arises.

    The fact that the parallax is mathematically completely wrong makes it look pretty cool. It adds something, I can feel there is something more to this render than just a 3d camera movement.
    Personally I think that is what I like most with 2d animation, how clunky it can be. This looks richer than 3d also because each frame is worked screenspace, so there won't be any complex geometry being squished, the simplification occurs naturally because of the process.

    • @OlofStorm
      @OlofStorm  2 года назад

      Thanks! I wouldn't say its completely wrong, but rather just pushed slightly to an extreme. By not pushing in on the far bg but rather move it a bit sideways makes it feel as if we slightly orbits the rock. It also makes the bg look larger and further away.

    A while back I wanted to draw a comic panel of a view looking up, with clouds circling around the focal point. I created a simple setup in sketchup, took a screenshot, and used it as a rough guide for the shape of the clouds. Worked pretty well!
    I was thinking, for this 3D animation stuff, you could add a checkerboard texture to your ground pieces, before capturing. That would help you track the ground as it moves for whatever you want to add to it.

    Always a great idea to start with a 3D environment for layout and sketching. Seeing the final result of the shot there are two minor things that I would maybe spend a tiny bit more time on. First would be the edge where the grass touches the big boulder, since it does look a tiny bit jittery. And the other thing would be to be careful with scaling the background planes for resolution reasons. I don't really bother the lack of paralax, it's just that when you don't paint them in a super high resolution you can't really zoom in on them that far, before it gets blurry

    Hi Olof, EbSynth is something I currently experiment with to save time. What's interesting to me is that the nice "off-look" you're talking about works with handmade stuff by human artists but it doesn't seem to work with AI generated images. That's then called "artifacts". EbSynth may still be useful to save time: You take the 3d model of your landscape -> You paint a few keyframes, ideally when a lot of visual change happens -> run the keyframes through EbSynth to get the other frames -> touch up wherever the AI "failed". The two prerequisites are 1. you have to render an image sequence of the scene from your 3D Software as the base layer video for EbSynth 2. there must be enough information in that 3D sequence for the details of your painted keyframes to be mapped onto. Have you tried this algorithm? I'm still not sure if the effort:benefit ratio is worth it for this method because, again, the AI artifacts of which there are often plenty must be covered up 100% or otherwise there's no good looking "off-look", just artifacts. Cheers and thanks for your efforts, they look amazing as always!

    Hi there!. Just found your channel. Great job. Instead of using a computer to get the shot, which seems more complicated to me, I used my drone to get aerial footage. I believe that was how it was done in the past...Someone got in a helicopter, recorded it, and traced the frames. But with drones, the same effect could be done on the cheap.

    Amazing work. Have you thought about stretching the rock graphics as they are being scaled? Since the camera is on ground level, the perspective of the rocks no only get larger, but the top portion of the rock will scale larger than the bottom. Maybe tweening them to not only scale, but to warp upwards slightly would give it a more realistic effect. Just spit balling here. I could be wrong. Don't have the bottom 30% of the rocks scale much but the top part part warp up may work well!

    Love your style of animation and painting. My technique is similar where I use 3D to rough model the environment or characters and then hand draw them as a final render. There is beauty in simplicity. It sure helps having a 3D space reference where you can visually map out your camera movements, drastically improves the workflow.

      In the end its all just 2d. The boulder layer has a scale animation to it, that I matched to the 3d animatic and the far bg is just planning slightly to give a hint of an orbiting motion. All done in AE.

    If you love those shots, I highly recommend a few of Ghinlis other films like Laputa Castle in the Sky.
    I think the are mostly brute forced hand animated, no computers involved. Especially in those earlier films.
    But for the shot made here. It looks great regardless of how it was made with the 3D reference to start with.
    One thing I would probably try to add is the way that Ghibli simulates a random bright highlight reflection on grass and water as they zoom by. It is usually done with some squiggly lines that stay roughly in the same place in frame but represents how light kicks off a few of the blades of grass (or ripples in the water) in each frame as they are in the right angle between the light source and the camera. It'd be a subtle thing as the main subject is the boulder, not the grass reflections. So maybe not worth it on this shot. :)
