  • I am in love with animation, and funnily enough, the majority of animation is created inside of the Graph editor!
    In this Blender Tutorial, we will be covering the basics of the graph editor, how to use it, and a few tricks you probably didn't know.

    The only time I got handles in Blender was in Masking or actually working with bezier curves in the layout window, not in the graph editor.

    Very useful stuff right here, as an animator with 2 years of experience, I honestly love how I can immediately look at the graph/curve editor and say *"holy sh!t, I understand what i am looking at even if I've never seen this before"* , blender is honestly pretty complicated to get use to, I mostly have been using roblox to animate but I have been slowly using and adapting to blender, plus I have alot more to learn, this video was (again) very useful for any beginner, especially me myself, I mostly just stick to the sine or quad easing styles since they are very good for making your animations smooth, but I do think a lot that key mapping has something to do with making a good animation too, overall I am trying this once I get my laptop back since it broke and haven't animated for like a month now :'/

    this is a great introduction to the graph editor, I think all novice and beginners animators should learn how to read this. However I would caution against being too reliant on being stuck in the graph editor. I struggled many years with my animation because I was too concentrated on the graph editor and keeping my curves nice and clean, guess what? This doesn't translation into animation animation sometimes. The cons to spending time in graph editor during a big production:
    - too much time is handled on cleaning curves, you neglect what your viewport might be doing
    - What happens when there's two or more character interactions with rotations. Sometimes clean curves could mean your characters interaction won't be solid and often times feel like it's slipping or sliding
    - Not great for mocap
    - Good luck cleaning a hundred curves on complex rigs with 1000+ frames of animation within one week plus feedback from the animation supervisor

    I remember the first time I saw the graph editor I thought I peeked into the apocalypse...I immediately closed it and trembled in fear.
    Now I cant wait to jump into it and finesse the micro movements of everything on the screen
    Any chance you could dive into a breakdown of how to animate or translate the blender timeline to beats per minutes...like animating a character dancing to a song... i cant wrap my head around how to translate the main beat/tempo of a song onto the frames per minute...

    • @Smeaf

    • @lawrencedoliveiro9104
      @lawrencedoliveiro9104 Год назад +10

      Remember you can type Python expressions into fields. So for example if “bpm” is beats per minute and “t” is duration in seconds, then you can calculate each from the other as
      bpm = 60 / t
      t = 60 / bpm

    Hello, character animator here! This is a great video about the graph editor, but tbh it has very little to do with making great animation. The graph editor is useful but it's just one of many tools you need to know. Many people like it but many animators, myself included, barely use it. Imo tween machine and animbot are more useful and give you great control of timing and spacing while keeping your attention on the poses. If you want to know what makes Pixar animation so great learn about acting, cinematography, body mechanics and animation principles, and probably loads more stuff i don't know about since it's Pixar and they're the best XD i don't mean to be negative, this is an excellent video but i feel it needs this disclaimer because it makes the graph editor seem much more important than it is

  • @SPapian
    @SPapian 11 месяцев назад

    Graph editors and the manipulation of your animations is an Fundamental (with a cap F 😂) thing, to first train and then develop your skills as a future animator. No need of being afraid of pulling a few tangents here n there to create Your unique approach to your animations. It actually got me a long way as an current animator. Thnx for your vids man!
