You DON'T Need Smooth Animation

- For all the people who are learning stop motion, there's some misconceptions I think should be ironed out. Animation isn't just some narrow window where you have to do this or that, sure there are techniques that generally make things look better, but nothing's universal.

Woah you looked at the description? Cool. Comment like, uh, "omae wa mo shinderu, nani?!" or something weeby idk.

Wow; I agree with this so much and I hope it has a wide reach. It has got to be the most frustrating misconception when people think a higher framerate with everything easing in and out will automatically make superior animation. Capping it off with the reminder that you don't need fantastic animation to make your film great if it shines in other areas was an excellent touch, too.

the only thing it does is change the speed it wont fix it

oh nice you like lego too
Easing in and out is bad....BLASPHEMY! MAY THE GODS OF BRICKFILMING SMITE YOU WHERE YOU STAND!!
But seriously, another great video essay.
Hey when is your new video going to come out i been waiting for your new video
you the god of brickfilming
My only criteria is to make it entertaining. :)
Not sure about you guys but I’d love if you made more videos like this. Because it’s like getting animation tips but without actually tipping you on how to do something if that makes sense.
Agreed this video taught me a lot...............
You can listen to this video if you want, but my advice: just do you. Do what you feel looks best.
5 YEARS AGO?!??! I thought this is a recent video lmao
At least we are talking about animation style specifically, but I'm never gonna hear the words "just do you" without thinking "aww shit. it's the overly laid back mf's here to give yet again the worst life advice you could ever follow." 💀
After thinking about this video for a while, I'm gonna try to make a still-polished video with a frame rate of 12 FPS, lower than my usual. Excited to see how it turns out! Thanks for the inspiration!
That's awesome dude, I'd love to see what you make!
FINALLY someone who doesn’t heart there own comment
@@Whoopsitsjessica their*
Amazing video!
@Digital Thunder Films Hello There
Love this. Very inspirational and insightful commentary on this community.
HoustonProductions1 oh hey it’s you
YES! Finally someone made on video mythbusting the FPS. I've had the idea to do one for quite some time. Thank you.
This was really well made. Good job and keep up the good work!
I see you on every lego stop motion video
Ah, I seem to have found a fellow Plinkett fan. ;) But seriously, I agree. Smooth animation is fine, but there are aspects of animation that are so much more important.
I agree. One of my favorite aspects of a brickfilm is not just its story or amount of humor, but its ability to show something or someone from a different perspective; Especially if that point of view isn't shown much, or at all.
Ah, so IT WAS Plinkett parody. Thanks for clearing that out for me!... 'cept you didn't do that for me...
Really well written stuff man.
Wow, you’re really encouraging. I especially liked that last line you said about pressure from other stop motion film makers. Thank you for giving me inspiration. Thank you.
Wow great video tons of great advice and tips for someone who is getting into stop motion. Thank you very much. This should have more views!
Im SO glad I’m not the only one that feels this way. Expressive, emotion-driven animation should always be the goal,
Excellent video essay, and something that I feel needed to be addressed. Great work.
Amazingly well written and made!
Really liked the video! I just started making animations and I’ll definitely keep this in mind when making new ones.
Nice vid, you made some really good points in this.
Thanks you so much for making this video LoneClone, I also make brickfilms or animations and I have been getting like a TON of response like "very choppy" or "do higher fps" which annoys me a lot. You speaks the truth, it doesn't have to be higher frames to get smooth animation, you show comparisons of 24 and 12 FPS (which I'm currently doing now). I really enjoy this video, I hope you make more like this.
Loved it! It''s really really good! Well done man!
Thanks dude, this really helps. As a channel that just started doing small brick films and stressing about what everyone else is doing. I'm fine with the animations I have and I don't have to worry about everyone else's animation skills
This was one of the most helpful videos I’ve watched. Thanks
I watch a TON of. Brick films and every channel I watch (including me) has a different style. Something I love doing is looking at different recreations of the same video. It shows that every one had a different way of making his or her Lego figs come to life.
Great video, thanks for the tips. You're really good at making these documentary-ish videos, like your Clone Training Center video.
Very well made video man!
*This video is like no other. Well Done!*
Great video! One of my favourite animators is JSlegomaster! He doesn't make brick films anymore, but he used to make ww2 vids. Those weren't the smoothest animations, but the story, movement, understanding of the frame rate and setting really made the videos some of the greatest!
I realy love your lego underworld series, you are my favourite animator now! keep it up the good work!
Words well said, that's why I tend to make my own ideas into brickfilms
This is super cool. Very helpful insights. Thanks :)
Very great video! Everything you said is very helpful!
I subscribed to your channel because now I’m feeling better + great videos!
Boi, ive watched so many tutorials for animation and so many animations over the years, but Ive never seen such an amazing (and actually important) video with regard to stop motion. Please, make more of these
thank you! this will really help me my future animated projects and I think anyone who wants to become an animator should watch this video I find it quite inspiring:)
Needed this. Always felt like my stuff didn’t get the views I was hoping for because my animation is subpar. But I like to focus on the writing and cinematography more than the animation because i find it more fulfilling. Thanks for the inspiration and reassurance.
Absolute genius. I really wished I had seen this video a few years back before I decided to retire from brickfilming after 2-3 years (StoppingInMotion9000 if you're interested). I got so caught up in how the animations looked that I completely neglected my favorite parts of the process. I loved the writing, the voice over, and the editing; but because I got lost in the mindset of "This needs to be on (animator's) caliber", I lost my enjoyment and passion for the art form. I hope a ton of new brickfilmers see this and take in what you're saying. Fantastic work.
BeeSquared it doesn’t matter about smoothness but to you it’s how you think it looks
Are you never gonna make more? I think those looked sick! 👌
Great video my friend. The points you displayed are very wise and true.
You're completely right about all of that! Great video, thumbs up.
Thank you! I just started posting stop motion videos. And this really helped, they are not that good, but they are good enough. This channel is great and ima subscribe!
This is great! I love the more "insider documentary" style to this, I feel like I'm part of the inner works of brickfilming. And I feel that this is a constant, keeping some sort of creative custom within the brickfilm community. Its hard to explain lol but I like it. 👍
I really like this video essays you do on brick films. This topic in particular is something i have to repeat over and over to my followers when they ask me about animation. Keep these up!
p.s. Mr Plinkket all the way!
Absolutely amazing video! Can't agree more!🙌
Really well done, I agree with your points that there’s a lot more to animation than it being smooth
Search your style of animation with the characters, and story to get a good work.
Excellent message, Loneclone!
Yes, really good video. And very informative as video essay. Loved that!
This video is really helpful, I'll see whether I can apply it to my animating. Thanks!!
When I first tried Stop Motion Animation, to say I visited this video a billion times over to see what I was doing is an understatement. This video helped me out a lot! Thank you?
Great video. Very helpful and informative.
This is very interesting, thanks for the video man
Great video. Thanks for the tips!
I absolutely love this video ♥️
There are some excellent points that I agree with! Timing is key. The timing is what makes it “smooth” or “fluid”; but as you stated, characteristic and movement are also key.
Very interesting ! Good job !
Nice analysis Alex, I will try and use what you said in my next animation.
I also was gonn ask if I donate to your Patreon will you voice act Captain America for me.
WOW! Great stop motion!
Really good advice and this should help me get started to make some amusing short films for my grandson 😄
Great video man
That was said perfect....I really enjoyed your knowledge.
Bro you are so right. You are so articulate with your words
Thx for this, really needed it
Wow, this was amazing. I'm a stop-motion animator who has been animating since 2014 and i have to say that this was very enjoyable to watch, it takes artists (and animators alike) years to perfect their craft,and this pretty much summed it up
Oh Hey!
You made some great points, in fact, if you think of the Lego Movie or Lego Batman, they take the idea of "choppy" animation" and turn it into a style, I actually started animating in 15fps to giving my films a classic, choppy feel but than changed back only because I told some of my subscribers and they wanted 24fps.
Those films look so good even though they're at 15 fps because they're animated by professionals who have excellent sense of weight, spacing, and timing. Hell, half the shots in Disney movies (pre-cg era) are "shot on twos", or drawn at 12 fps, and they look totally natural for the same reasons.
Very informative, well done!
Very helpful. Thank you!
Great essay man! It's really cool that someone's making essays about brickfilms. They're very helpful and entertaining!
Awesome! New plinkett review!
It opens up your mind and releases stress well doing it
Thank you. I’m going to try this.
Wow! That's so good! I always feel so bad, that I don't really get how to ease properly and many other brickfilmers have way better animation technique than me. But I think I have to overthink that concept again. I think you are right. I don't have to feel bad.
Oh my god, Thank you. I’ve been trying to find a video like this for so long. Sometimes smoother animation is just dizzy and hard to look at. Sure you might view me as a caveman for this but I like to comprehend the frames. Don’t make everything so smooth that it’s hard to look at.
again, pretty convinving :)) thanks, subbed ♥
After watching this, I feel much more confident in my stop motion. Thanks a lot!
Awesome, very informative 👍🙂
Like how you organized this video similar to a red letter media plinkett video. Don't know if that was intentional but it's still amazing.
Fantastic video and very well-constructed! I love the analysis and breakdown of how the difference of "types" of stop-motion videos can drastically effect the overall quality. Brilliant work and I love the footage of forrestfire101 (Was that AubreyStudios82 and Keshen8 as well?) as well as the MR. PLINKETT-esque voice tone haha
Thanks, you can check out all the clips I used in the description.
@@LonecloneProductions thank you for making this video because I don’t really feel the need to constantly animate arm and leg movements when talking I only add one or two movements
Thx, I needed this.
Thank you that was beautiful
Agreed. Thanks for the good advice. Definitely will improve mine too. Tq
Really good video! That's exactly how I felt when going from 24fps back to 12fps
Sweet man!
this actually made me try to focus on my animation. and want to practice instead of just making animations and hope they are good when I know they probably wont be.
That was great!
Thanks for making this video
Great!!! Thanks for making this... gives some perspective..
Thank you for this video
Nice tips!
Happy Brickfilm Day! Check out all the other participants here: ruclips.net/video/kZRGqe1oflc/видео.html
I found this helpful even as a 2D animator, thank you so much! It really is easy to forget that higher framerate and more frames doesnt mean smooth motion, this served as a nice reminder
Great video. I totally agree with you
THANK YOU FOR THIS
Thanks for the video. It was very informative. I am just getting into Stop Motion. So it was useful to hear.
Andrew
Thanks that was really informative and interesting
Just found your channel. It is so cool :D . Just subscribed
All of my favorite Lego RUclipsrs
thank you love you keep up the good work
This video is incredible
Wow. Good job. I subbed. Well spoken. :)
I agree with your conclusion 100%
Thanks
I had a style of choppy animation a few months ago that I did on purpose and I asked what people thought and most of them loved it but I got a couple people telling me to increase the frame rate I felt like a baby. It depends on the kind of choppy animation. Usually people don’t do this style, and I honestly don’t find unintentional choppy animation any entertaining at all. You made some good pints here but I’ll still recommend smooth animation as an option. But this is a bold move so ten points to Griffendor
The title is clickbait to get people to watch, not the point I was making. I wasn't saying that you don't need smooth animation, but there are misconceptions in what is considered to be smooth. Less frame rate and more flow and liveliness, I still think everyone should strive for "smooth" animation.
great video!
your video is so amazing you know?!!!
Thank you so much!
