This is probably the best contemporary explanation of the 12 principles I've come across. Short, clear, and entertaining. I'm flipping my intro to animation class and this is what I assign students to watch. They come to class ready to animate! Thanks for making my job easier!
really appreciate these, thank you. I've been an animator for 4 years and ive struggled getting to grips with these principles, you've made them easier to understand and also shown the common errors that people tend to fall into.
[:3] My cat just watched 3 of these videos in a row!! She's 1 year old and this is the SECOND time she has ever watched anything!!! The first time was when she watched the entire opening scene of La La Land. Further, I'm 90% certain she learned about the concept of frames from watching this series. Whoah. Phenomenal to watch her learn from it too. Oh, plus I really really loved it, fantastic teaching + presentation. AAA+ Will prob watch them all 5 more times. RUclips at its best. ~ p e a c e ~ ~ keep up the great work & heart! ~
When I first saw this playlist I thought, 'Oh gosh, another list of things to memorize before trying this out.' Unlike EVERYTHING I simply wanted to try, I did not have to go through a complicated list of things I needed to know to perfect it. You make these pretty fun to watch, and they were so interesting I went through all of them in one day. You explained all the necessary details in a no-nonsense way, some I have never experienced. You do pretty good at presentations and REALLY good at animations. I always wanted to try animating but am still yet to have the necessary tools to do it. I saw your 10-year Animator Versus Animation video, and you have amazing story. I first created my channel on August 20th, 2016, but have been using RUclips for some years. Now that I have a Google account, I can finally do all the things a regular community user can do and not simply watch videos. I can finally speak my mind through comments and say the things I wished to say for a long time. I'm mostly here to do that, but I am planning on putting a video together where I take a picture of myself every day and put them all together one by one. Though I'm not much of a video person, do expect to see my comments pop up in a lot of my favorite places here. I'm still pretty invisible as of August 26th, 2016 due to low activity, but you can always click on one of my comment icons to go to my channel. See you!
I have a digital animation class and my teacher would show us these videos so we could have a better understanding of how the principles work, and I love watching them :)
Thank you for making these videos! I have heard many people tell me to look up the 12 principals of animation to help me become a better animator. All 12 videos explained the principles very well! Thanks again!
Really nice videos, Im a game designer and honestly I always struggle with animating characters, mostly 3D but with this tutorials Im starting to feel less scared of animation. Thanks mate.
I really love all your tutorials, I'm starting with animation, so there are some concepts involved in it that I was missunderstanding!, so I really appreciated to find your tutorials!, thanks dude
Thanks a lot for making this guide :D Yesterday I made the decision that I wanted to start animating, so it was actually pretty funny that you made this video the day after :P
Wow I get evry morning and i ask myslef what am I doing...I want to do animation. Didt have courage to pursue but now I find this video series a blessing. Let me live my dream.
Hey Alan thanks for making this, I've been a fan of your work since I was little. I have honestly never made an animation and would love to make one one day. I want to watch your tutorials but they're a few years old, will they be outdated or should I watch them anyways? Again thanks for this video it will be fun learning from you. :)
BIG thanks for making this! The way you explained this rules, was really simple, informative, convincing, funny and of course very well animated. Thanks again!
Thanks so much! I've known the basics since before I even started, but It's so helpful when it's broken down like this. Maybe now I can improve my animations and eventually work my way to a professional level.
This channel is like that is you never need to be reminded about ringing the bell or pressing likes. You see it - you do it yourself. Thank you. Very exciting expirience.
Thank you for the awesome tutorial! Out of curiosity, I want to ask if there is a way or a method to check and make sure that the volume of your animated object is the same throughout the animation when squashing and stretching?
Dude your videos are A-W-E-S-O-M-E ! Its quick, very well and simply explained, and it goes right to the essential without useless blabla. RUclips needs more teachers like you, really.
hey mate, thanks a lot I´m beginner animator and this is an excelent explanation of the fundamentals in this huge field, really helpful Thanks Bless :D
OMG! Definitivamente eres el papu de los papus! Te amo, leer sobre animación es complicado si no se tiene ejemplos gráficos, gracias por el trabajo, te ganaste un suscriptor, si te tuviera aca reharía 1000000 hijos. TE AMO :3
