Thank you for sharing your day in a life as an animator! Im curious about the time specifics. Like for example, the average time you stop working on animating to work on other stuff and when you sleep, and how much sleep you get on average. Ive try animating a bit before and i always feel animator who do this for a living is on a whole other level because its a very long process (epecially if it's 2d) and can be quite hard on stamina and the brain to keep going due to the amount of drawings you need to do plus deadlines
The current anime I’m working on has healthy deadlines! So I’m sleeping enough, and some days, I have time to do other stuff like buying groceries and cooking (or even this RUclips video). The advantage of being freelance is that I organize my schedule. As long as I deliver when I’m supposed to, I can work some days 8 hours and others 4, etc. I have been on projects with crunched deadlines (not only anime), and I’d like to avoid that if possible lol. I could make a more in-depth video on how I organize myself :)
I will make a video on this! But in short: Complex actions take more time, like a run or a dance vs. a simple head turn, or a lot of cuts are a still drawing with characters not moving, for example, that’s quick. And also shots showing the full body instead of close ups are more difficult in my opinion. Oh and in anime the animator does the background sketch too, that add a lot of butt hours.
The first anime I worked on was Magical Destroyers, which aired in April this year. And that's it haha 😅 before that I worked on indie Western productions, commercials, etc.
I don’t really count frames, because it can vary a lot between cuts. A cut can be a still image and that’s only 1 drawing, or it can be action packed with lots of drawings. Hope that helps!
ayo 2:15 o.O

not much difference for a youtube animator with a fulltime job (that lets me do nothing when i work from home) hahaha.
Lots of jobs are “butt hours” hahaha
I wish you would discreetly elaborate on why a particular cut takes more time than others - like more action or something. Anyway, great video!
