Yo, I watched all the movies mentioned and those are such wonderful movies, they are top on my animation movie lists. Damn, they deserve more especially because it required so much effort to be precise and smooth.
@@weaponizedassaultpenguins3837 I can't think of much on top of my head but I really liked Kubo and the Two Strings, and The Isle of Dogs. Tim Burton movies are also there, but I'm sure you have watched those already.
I got so much respect for these guys. I can't even get myself to animate frame by frame in Maya, even with keyframes, tween , blendshapes, hair and cloth simulations etc sometimes even 10 to 15 seconds would take a whole day or more and you only have to focus on one or 2 things at a time and not the entire movement as a whole. The level of dedication and patience they have is insane.
Give Laika an oscar already guys, they deserve it, the work they put into every film should be recognized by the academy. I couldn't even tell they were stop-motion they're so flawless.
I'm a stop motion animator myself and I was (and still am) interested in seeing Studios where they make animations. I can't imagine the pain they had to go through And when I try to think about it, I realize there's no way for me to get to their level of hard work 😩 makes me respect them even more! 💯
Nocturnal Entertainment What I was trying to say is that Play-Doh and Clay inspired many people and we should appreciate that. Sorry if I wasn’t specific
I usually spent an hour or 2, but my video is like 30secs. That happens because I get pissed I throw my stuff, and then I have to put them like how they were and continue. It's pain
Like all other Laika films; Missing Link is an underrated masterpiece, I seriously hope they win an academy award one day because they deserve it more than anyone. Also hope Wes Anderson wins one, he's also long overdue.
@@ryou0842 its not about that, the storyline is actually trash and boring but it looks fantastic. And wtf how could i make that but i could make the dtoryline better
Oh my... My admiration for the Laika studio and all the stop motion animators in general, has gone million folds up. This is hands down painstaking and unique art work and we need to support them.
@@HollywoodColt im a young (gen Z) artist, amateur sculptor/potter, and animator and it wont die. Too many people have a passion and a demand for stop motion and animation as a whole. As long as people will watch it, animation will continue probably for at least the next 100 years.
@@snarkado How do you figure? These kids today are lazy and don't want to work. There's no way in hell they would sit with all that patience to do this!
I absolutely love the behind the scenes stuff for stop motion, I do my own LEGO stop motions but I would love to work on a bigger project like this one day, so cool. Awesome video thanks for sharing!🙂
Imagine Them pulling a Toy Story 2 and scraping 90% of the movie whilst having 8 months left and no way of delaying the movie, that’d be pure horror for every single employee
I appreciate these movies because of the patience, art-style, and dedication of the people behined it. And even more things i bet that i have no words for.
Thanks! I think it's no accident that stop-motion animation was one of the earliest forms of film making, and that it's still around today. I also don't think that nostalgia alone has allowed it to survive. it has a definite appeal to both children and adults. As Mr. Butler points out, it closely resembles the natural play of children, when they 'animate' toys and dolls, and that's something we all relate to and remember fondly. In this burgeoning age of computer animation, it's nice to see there are still some studios around that use this pain-staking technique. It's always beautiful to watch! Thanks again. 𝓡𝓲𝓴𝓴𝓲 𝓣𝓲𝓴𝓴𝓲.
The animation was so BEAUTIFUL film and amazing scenery and characters Its such a shame no one gives this genre of film the credit it deserves I sound hella cliche wow but hey It’s insane how much work is put in and how underestimated it is
I saw that The Missing Link was available on a streaming service but didn’t think too much about it but after seeing this and if “Around The World in 80 Days” is an inspiration I gotta go see it right away.
The little details in this kind of stop motion film or animation (like clothes, grass, fire movement etc.) Is so cool and fluid. But everytime i see those little details I'm imagining how much time that they put on making those little details. They are so talented (sorry if my grammar is bad)
This is insane, these people are crazy awesome. I feel sad though for how people can very conveniently dispose off such a great effort just because they didn't like some small thing in it. Well that's how cinema goes I guess. Can't wait to experience the next one 👍🏽
*Stop motion Animation requires more effort than an CGI* , *the artist deserve more currently what they are given* the kubo and the two strings is the best , based on story and many more...
Prehistoric Terminator My cousins made me watch horrors like the exorcist, scream and other horrors. This made me develop a phobia of anything scary. I run out the room if I see a horror movie trailer
At first I'm thinking how this is so many miles away from my high school 13 min., 8mm clay-mation movie, and then I realize that it's exactly like that. Only with a real budget, millions of hours more time, professional actors for voice-overs and the miracle of green-screen. Move the character, click a few frames, move it again, more frames - and over and over again. When I think of the time and patience that a buddy and myself had back then to create our 13 minute masterpiece, and then to see something like this and the other great animation films out there, I can really appreciate the passion and dedication it takes to make it work.
Well it depends on what ur doing in the field like colorist only get 30k to 40k a year a rough animatior gets about 60k to 80k If you got anymore questions ask them :)
I’m an animation student who’s worked in the animation industry and they don’t actually get paid that much unfortunately when they say it takes about a year to make a film the actual animators are only hired for a portion of that time like 6-7 months (it varies) so they don’t actually make the full amount of an annual salary and if you’re new to the business you’re making the same amount as someone else working minimum wage unfortunately but it’s definitely worth it if you love it
@@CVerseI guess we should tell all people that, especially actors, sport's players and bankers (to name a few). I really hate this "if you do what you are passionate about, you don't actually need money to live - bullshit"
I shiver when I watch this. Sometimes, I thought I already put so much efforts on what I've been doing but nothing came out of it, but then I realize, I had not. I never tried hard enough that I stopped half way. If you want the best outcome, then give your best efforts.
I thought this movie was truly amazing. For stop motion, the amount of realism is something I've never seen in an stop motion film before. So hats off to them, this film was amazing!
I love CGI and Keyframe animation but I gotta say Stop Motion holds a special place in my heart. You have to have alot of skills AND patience, respect! Btw Kubo is my favourite movies by these guys yet
i love it when it goes into timelapse and it seems like the characters are actually moving at normal speed and everything around them is going so much faster
I was lucky enough to see missing link before it was out and be at a q and a (was almost able to get Chris butlers autograph 😭) oh and I recommend ppl go watch the film it’s amazing!
marketing your art is the hardest job in the world. it's vulnerable and maybe not understandable despite a lot of effort to put it together. it's really hard to be succesful in this. You're creating beauty and expecting someone will understand and care about it and buy it. it's the key actually. IF you can't sell it, it becomes nothing but a hoby. Animation isn't like a normal movie. it's full of risks. But it's like love. nobody would care about it but you.
Incredible. But is there anything-from an audience standpoint-that you could tell from CGI vs real stop motion? They look the same to me. This stop motion looks so perfect, perhaps making it less perfect would allow its nostalgia to thrive and not be erased by CGI...

Oh wait...

No, it's just you.
oh it definitely does, it was the first thing I thought when I saw the movie
Yeah
This is probably one of the most underrated films of the last decade. This movie deserves much more than it got.
My whole life was expecting that animation is all made by drawing
they draw the models before crafting it
