I'm not an artist (not even as a hobby) but my curiosity directed me into trying to animate something. Found this tutorial and within 10 hours I could do a very simple animation! Thank you for sharing this workflow that's so simple to reproduce! I'll certainly see animated shows in a different light now!

@@martin4u2 in my opinion clip studio, but because I'm quite experienced on it, but for sure if you are expert in open toons your opinion well be different to mine... But for people that start animation, clip studio Is Easier to learn.
i remember trying opentoonz awhile back, but i never got into it because of how complicated it was, and there weren't any useful tutorial videos. your video is super simple and on to the point, it got me trying it again, and it's honestly pretty fun!
Traditional isn't dying out, there's clearly monstrous demand for it. The problem is profitability and time, and the fact there just aren't enough skills animators who can animate characters in one or two passes.
traditional animation keeps strong because japanese animation. they even bring the traditional animation and mix it with digital. and now vtuber culture booming. digital animation is all about the west. for now..
Its not dying out traditional animation is just a method to express art. Its like saying ppl don’t use claymation anymore. Also, not sure what u meant by traditional cuz that would be done on paper. I think the accurate comparison is raster vs vector animation and raster animation is actually very popular. If u ever seen vector animation it sorta gives u like paper cutout style animation. But either or, depends on the persons tastes their both good raster is better imo
You are a very very heavily misinformed gullible fool with no base knowledge. Traditional/2d Animation is very far from "Dying out" is is still being utilized everywhere as well as other animated methods that its existing alongside with it. How about doing your research before coming off as an misinformed fool.
One of the most beautifull tutorial about Opentoonz... It's not only beautifull : it's well explained and advanced. I love this kind of tut when you understand that the professionnals are at a level so much higher than you, that your own tutorials seems to be so childish. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Dong... Please, please, do more like this one with Opentoonz for us...
DUDE I freaking loved deca-dence, one of my favourite shows of all time! Was not expecting to find a tutorial from a deca-dence animator, thats dope. You did a fantastic job, I love her character design and expressive animations so much!
This is a really great tutorial! I find myself learning the most from tutorials where I can see the workflow of professionals, and this provides exactly that.
YOU are amazing. This kind of guide on how to use the software / how you plan your animation is exactly what I've needed. I've always been intimidated by planning sheets and multiple colors in the sketch, but you make it look so easy I want to jump right in! You're the only tutorial I've found on RUclips that is willing to show everything (not just jump-cut to: *finished product!!!*). I seriously mean it when I say that this helps tremendously. Thank you for your work and I wish you the best in the future. Subbed.
@@Aprianex not that long.. -,- they have team, bruh. not just one person. for rough image, 10seconds animation maybe need 1 hour. my simple n rough animation in my channel there, took me like more than 1 hour. only like.. 5 frames/pictures there. i forgot how much time it took. back then i was newbie at animation. 2013 maybe. or 2015. idk. i disable comment and some stuffs about that video because some ppl dislike n even commenting bad comments to that animation. the heck... it's like mocking a baby because that baby can't talk n walk. dont mock newbies, ppl.. -,- ahh. lets continue.. plus, in the big Japanese animation studio, they usually like.. they share the work to other animation studio. they even do some outsourcing too. like.. freelancer animator n illustrator too. WIT Studio is not alone back then. IG Production, JC Staff, etc helps them too. And it's not just about the animation.. it's also about the music n sound. And now it's also not just MAPPA Studio that animating SnK season 4. go look at their credits both in the opening n ending.
@@DBT1007 multiple teams work on different scenes at the same time, but to get through the scenes you have to rely on the keyframers, cleanup correction, colorists, and the outsourced inbetweeners. it takes a lot more time for each individual clip.
Thank you, I've tried open toonz in the past but it was hard to understand how to use it at the time. This tutorial may convince me to give it another try!
wow thanks man. Always wanted to learn animation but this is so easy and simple to follow. I tried listening to other opentoonz tutorial but they were all long winded and over complicated. You got down to the point and even showed some industry standard stuff to learn from .
This helped me even when I'm not using toonz. I had a hard time with understand how to do a head turn and ruff animation process. I really appreciate this tutorial, it made me have hope in my skill again 😭😭😭
This was awesome I was just entranced on the edge of my seat. Even simple things like the paintbrush and auto paint lines are absolutely mind-blowing. Also, seeing the workflow, process, and pretty drawings was super interesting, thank you for posting this! :))
this is such a great video! the breakdown of the professional animation process was so informative and easy to understand. the notes i've acquired from this video will be perfect for studying and putting in practice when it comes time for animation! thank you!
This video just reminded me why I'm too lazy to do animation. This is impressive work, thanks for the video, it's unfortunate whenever I try doing animation I realize the work load and time needed to do so and I just quit😅
Thank you sir !! This really help me out , i'm still curious about anime production or making like this .. hope u make more content about this in the future if u don't mind !! Looking forward for your next stuff !!

I've been doing the head turn animation and struggling to do so and could not find any tutorials on youtube until now! Thanks! Edit: After doing the inbetweens, opentoonz CHRASHED and was left with the 3 main key frames from 9. My fault for not learning how to save properly on opentoonz. kill me
Oh dude I know how you feel. I had lost a whole story board because I messed up saving. My suggestion is to turn on auto save. You have less of a chance losing stuff that way.
i recently learned that if you go into the scene files, there are two others aside from the .tnz file that are saved; one is .bak and one is .tmp. If you change their extensions to .tnz they will open up and it might have your lost file!
@@animationinfatuation6837 It didn work because i think that when i saved the file, it said cannot save or sth but Thanks for the tip anyways. I will make sure to use it if it happens again! Cheers!
Thank you for the awesome video! I have a question: is it common to add inbetweens after some frames have been cleaned up? I would've imagined you want the whole scene fully animated in rough first, before any clean up
I don't use open toonez but I watched this video anyways 😂 Thanks for the tutorial, I loved watching Deca Dence last year it was a great show, I hope it working on the show wasn't stressful 😅
Best open toonz tutorial ive seen so far it wasnt as overbearing and complicated like most of the others
Just what I want to say! That's so true!
seriously i was about to give up with opentoonz before i found this
and the product is used in an actual anime!
Nah, it's a great video but you don't have to disrespect the others. Darren T and NobleFrugal are great too.
the other ones arent overbearing ur just bad at paying attention

traditional animation is dying out rapidly and u are doing god's work by sharing and reviving it!
Its not dying because anime industry is huge and it relies on frame by frame animation technique with cgi.
Traditional isn't dying out, there's clearly monstrous demand for it. The problem is profitability and time, and the fact there just aren't enough skills animators who can animate characters in one or two passes.
traditional animation keeps strong because japanese animation.
they even bring the traditional animation and mix it with digital.

And literally just sat there re thinking my life decisions
Love this tutorial. Its the best quick and dirty reference for an Opentoonz review. Everything you need to know in one professional go. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I’m going to start making my own animatics soon, and this was super helpful!

Good work Man! Thanks so much for this tutorial, you deserve more subs!
Love the tutorial and this anime also. The ending is really good,
too bad it's an underrated anime.
This was perfect! It was exactly the kind of instruction I needed with nothing I didn't need to get in the way. Thank you.
This is masterclass level. Thank you.
Most of this can be applied to krita and it's still super informative and simple to understand thank you
Well i like to do the drawing part on krita then i put all those drawing in opentoons its way better to do it this way as krita lacks some features
@@instagramstar5928 I would use opentoonz if it wasn't messed up on my computer. I just have to stick with krita for anything animation related :/
This video is so useful thanks 💕
The layout is incredible too
This is why i subs to Ani-One's RUclips channel. Support anime studios all the way you can guys.
