Thank you, Come again!
Hey guys, thanks to your comments I realized I mispronounced "Hayao" which was a complete mistake by me. Thank you guys for letting me know and I apologize for mispronouncing it. I appreciate the feedback truly! Thank you guys for watching and caring enough about the video to make a comment at all, it means a lot!
Also, I would love suggestions on what videos you'd like to see next!
When you pronounce Japanese names, remember that it’s romanised Japanese characters.
Any syllable ending with ‘a’ has an ‘ah’ sound
‘E’ ‘eh’
‘I’ ‘ee’
‘O’ ‘oh’
‘U’ ‘u’
Usually you don’t put emphasis on specific syllables.
So “Hayao” would be ‘Ha-ya-oh” hope this helps :D
could u make a video essay on castle in the sky?
It’s okay, you also mispronounced Takahata as…
@@defokochuan I know it's late, but the reason youtubers prononuce things weird is so that people like you and me comment on it
“I never want to regret not trying something. It’s better to try and fail.” -Hayao Miyazaki
Words to live by. Thanks for writing it here in the comments. ❤💚
i really respects his no bs attitude towards art. hes very much like "do it right, if you fail do it again, if you cant / wont put in the effort / respect the medium; then leave". thats why his movies connects with people of all ages. he also doesn't just spam low brow humor like farts/ burps / random screaming / goofy dances like most western family movies tend to do.
It’s bizarre that generative ai users don’t understand this basic concept.
This
He also rare example of someone who still uses traditional hand drawn animation if thought it’s one of the most tedious forms of art it still results in stunning works of moving art.
He's not rare at all. Most japanese animation is still hand-drawn.
The oldman never quit making art, so why do I... thank you for this inspiring video, I'm gonna put myself together and get working on my animation project once more
Go for it!
Race you there
(I 'm already done with my voice actors and I am almost done with the first rough pass/ lip sync mwhahaha :P )
Spirited Away is one of my favorite animated films Hayao Miyazaki is a very talented artist who created some of the most beautiful magical films I could ever experience Animation is truly magical
11:43 im pretty sure thats what all artist are like "im gonna stop drawing" -one day later- "I HAVE AN IDEA"
“If we try to please people , we’d be long forgotten”. ❤
I have just finished secondary, I’m going to collage soon as I have completed art and film studies GCSEs. Now I’m going to study animation in collage. Now to the point, ever since I was little, I have always watched all the studio Ghibli films and loved every addition, the use of the hand drawn animation style, with the impeccable water colour backgrounds, which is the main feature of the allure and brilliance of these films, it’s definitely what captures the imagination and creativity of the audience. I believe Miyazakis films will continue on in history just like all these other films made in the past, present and future, all I hope is that others will feel the creative spark, freedom and excitement for creating other interesting, beautiful films that contain a more free-flowing plots and ideas. Anyway I’ve said my thoughts and ideas for the future. Later.
@@Ellzwearsglasses Absolutely!! I hope people are more inspired by these creative works to put something in their own!!
Hey! Can I get your Instagram?
Now Elizwearsglasses....let your words become action
@ Thank you, I’ve just finished my first term of collage and it’s amazing, I’m loving learning all about animation and the industry.
I’ve got big plans for animations and I might even start posting on RUclips.
Thanks again.👍🏽
@Ellzwearsglasses Well, befor I leav to do couple things...here in UK it's Christmas Eve & public transport stops early....so must do wat must be done.... well...maybe we will see Elizwearsglasses in a film credits some day in the future. Cheers & Blessed Christmas greetings to the 'hard creative worker'....
so much passion in his work, that's amazing.
Creativity happens as you're doing the work. Nice one, Mr Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli 👍
As an artist this really inspired me to go further, thank you for this video
I'm so glad!
Animation is Art I Love Studio Ghibli Animation is Cinema Studio Ghibli deserves Academy Awards
Honestly expected you to have at least 10k subs, your video has been incredibly engaging and informative I hope you know how much I appreciate this. Thank you and have a nice day!
Def inspiring! What a guy. I don’t want to claim to be an expert, or even just pretend to known the exact intent, but I do feel like this smoothed over some things, especially in the grueling physical processes of making these movies. Miyazaki appears to be a complicated and incredibly talented man, so even though I feel I prefer the real real of the Ghibli Process and what happens outside of him as well, nonetheless I was entertained to see his philosophy on creating movies presented
For sure! it was hard trying to fit all of the process into once video but I tried focusing on Miyazaki and his creative process. Thank you so much for the kind words!
I was searching about hayao Miyazaki and this video is exactly what I needed
I've been a Miyazaki fan ever since I saw "My Neighbor Totoro" long ago in a Pasadena movie theater on a whim. This was animation and story I'd never seen before, and even though it was a "kids" movie, it had an adult sensibility as well. It was grounded in both the real and fantasy worlds, and didn't treat me like I was too stupid to understand.
His process is very interesting to me. I'm a writer. My first three books I did from a screenplay/outline. My current though started from just an idea of an ancient monster in the modern world. I started with a rough outline, but as time went on, I've been writing disconnected scenes I figure should be in the story then try to figure out how they got to that point and where it fits with the rest of the story. It's shot my original outline all to hell, but it's also taking the story places I had no idea it would go. Creation is a wierd and strange thing to live with, but I'm not surprised he can't quit. Once you get used to playing god and creating worlds and characters, it's hard to give up. You can try, but as soon as you get another good idea, well....
The La La Land music in the background did not go unnoticed. 😂 (I watched that movie 10 times in the span of 2 years plus I used to listen to the soundtrack in school.)
Wooow, I’m so inspired by Studio Ghibli too! Their attention to detail and the way they capture emotions is just magical. I recently started painting, and their vibrant worlds really motivate me to explore my creativity. thank you for this video 🌸❤
Such an insightful takes on Miyazaki's work, you present your point really clearly and i hope you would do more video like this on many other things you find interesting.
Thank you so much for saying that, it means a lot! I definitely will, just trying to figure out what to do next
Once you watch a Ghibli movie, it gets stuck in your head until you watch another
Sooo true!!
I loved this. Thank you for making this and honoring such an incredible artist and human being.
Of course! Thank you for watching!
@@troycostlow Absolutely
Awesome video, well researched and narrated ,it struck to my core and i took it to my heart when i heard his statement "AI was an insult to life itself" damn. You earned my sub, Thanks!
In a few short years, people will feel dependent on AI not just for animation, but also for writing essays, letters, emails, etc. And in medicine, web search, music creation, film industry and so on.
We must have the self-awareness to simply unplug from social media, from using our phones or watching news reports, or movies for three days to reset and recharge. AI will be everywhere, well, it already is but the most important thing is to unplug and refresh and come back to the real world with a new view. AI will be an insult to people's perspective on how they view themselves and life.
I don't mean to sound negative but we already have people with psychological issues who feel they aren't worthy because of physical, emotional or financial limitations. AI generated, some, movies will depict the perfect man or woman. Miyazaki shows us in his films that it's okay to be human and imperfect. You'll make it there because he believes in you, and his stories tell the viewers to believe in themselves.
Thanks, man! A truly extraordinary human Hayao Miyazaki is. A genious. And so Japanese :) I love it. I've watched Spirited Away, currently in the process with Howl's Walking Castle, and then my plan to watch Princess Mononoke. I'm so not a fan of animation/cartoons/anime especially, and I have to push myself through his works, although in the end I feel something, something good. Not to mention a mind-blowing experience while watching simply being in awe of how in the name of... someone can create such work/art/piece/masterpiece, both come up with an idea and make others create as a whole. Wow.
I'm not an artist by profession but I like art and the idea of drawing what comes to your mind by observing nature. love from Pakistan.
Spirited away my favourite....i love it😊🥰❤️❤️🌼
Never will hear anywhere but japan that someone is a key asset to the company and is willing to shut down whole operations for them ...
Awesome video dude! This was a great compilation and discussion of Hayao Miyazaki and all that has gone into his amazingly beautiful films and stories!
Thank you sm!
@@troycostlow Yeah definitely! I'm also a huge fan of Studio Ghibli, so it was great to see this come up on my feed!✌
Bro just forgot about Isao Takahata
Most people seem to do that. Miyazaki's and Takahata's processes of creating films were very different, though. Would need to make separate videos for each.
I also noticed that.
He's my favourite
You mean the guy that directed like one or two films?
@@alexscott7819 There are more than one or two films made by him and most of them are nice .
thank you for this beautiful video… It was very insightful and inspiring.
loved your clear editing and source siting and it’s nice to see a video by a fellow filmmaker, good luck and keep going !
Thank you so much! To you too!
Love watching anything about Ghibli ♥
Awesome mini doc!!!! Keep it up and you should soon get to 1m subscribers. :)
YOU KNOW THIS VIDEOS GONNA BE GOOD WHEN SUPER MARIO GALAXY STARTS PLAYING
TELL ME NOT
BASED
thanks i loved the video and didnt skip a single second and ive learned lots of stuff
Glad to hear it!
Loved this video ❤😊would love to watch more of such informative and inspirational content
That was a very nice Video. Good editing, good voiceover, and most importantly good content.
He is just a chill guy
this video is so helpful thank you
"It's an awful insult to life."
He watched a clip of CGI of an ugly, creepy model with inhuman motions. Generative AI videos and photos did not exist back then.
@@nigel-uno I don't think that today he's response would be much different, just see the way he emphasized drawing every single face because they were 'drawing humans, not characters'. This rationale doesn't work with AI.
@@fabiovinicius4766 My point is that his quote has been sensationalized.
They did not have GenerativeAI images or videos. His reaction was to a grotesque CGI animation. Why has this clip not been weaponized against CGI animation? He was reacting to human designed CGI model that used AI for its motion. AI photos and videos did not exist at that time. It doesn't make sense.
Despite his preference to everything being hand drawn, hand shaded, it's simply not possible. Even Spirited Away they used a handful of CGI for scenes. Another example, Princess Monoke they used OpenToonz software to help with a digital coloring process. In 2020. Earwig and the Witch is fully CGI.
The same people who are anti-AI now are the same people who were anti-CGI in the 80s, 90s. It's the fear of change. AI is just a technology and can be used both ethically and unethically, just like CGI. Just like CGI, both technologies have drastically cut down costs of production and sped up workflows. Even CGI did lead to less total number of people needed on a project because you are no longer drawing every frame by hand. But where is the protests against that? Today's generation are born with CGI and just accept it as normal and don't even remember the shift of how CGI used to be despised. They grew up on CGI works like Frozen.
GenerativeAI will become as normal as CGI in a few decades.
@@nigel-unohis statement was broad and targeted at a much larger concept. Stop trying to rationalize what he said so you can continue excusing the existence of ai.
@@b00ch1e7 "The existence of AI" You sound like a child who has no idea AI has helped protein folding, vaccine development and powers technology everywhere.
the best animations i made were without a script ! Storyboard first should be industry standard for animation if you ask me. This video was so interesting to hear
You are a seriously underrated creator, I really value the information, detail, and hard work in your videos.
I really appreciate all the kind words you said, thank you!
Of course man! You deserve them and then some :)
"...It's all about being yourself, but that's _terrible_ !"
LOL
I really enjoyed this video! Nicely done
Such a wonderful and well put together video about my favourite film maker. Subbed!
Miyazaki is not the only director at Ghibli.
the train scene in spirited was the scene that absolutely hooked me
"the sole creative voice of most of the Studio Ghibli movies" I gotta stop you right there, Isao Takahata has directed 5 films for Ghibli in addition to serving as a producer for all of Miyazaki's films. The two founded Ghibli together and Miyazaki considered him a mentor right up until Takahata's death in 2018. If you haven't seen any of his films, The Tale of Princess Kaguya is a masterwork, Only Yesterday is one of my all time favorite movies, Grave of the Fireflies will break your heart and My Neighbor the Yamadas will put it back together again. While Miyazaki had made more films, and those films have been more popular, neither he nor studio Ghibli would have been the same without Takahata's influence.
Wonderful video!! Loved every part of it!
You’re so underrated!
It's made my day completely Every Time i heard this songs ❤💋 so lovely ❤❤❤
great video really informative and much need
thanks Troy!
Nice video. Thanks.
Isao and grave and princess kaguya is also masterpiece
I Never imagined Miyazaki saying he hates the song
" Let it go " , but again, he hates the Beatles so there's that 😆.
Bro casually roasted let it go? Frikkin legend
Thank you for an inspiring video..😇
My pleasure 😊
About 12 days ago I saw a original cell from the my neighbor totoro ( selling for 222,000,000 ¥ or roughly 200,000$ )
Bro, the day Miyazaki finally passes on will be a truly sad day for not just anime, but for animation in general.
I aspire to be Miyazaki, never to be content and always improving oneself
Great video, love from India
Miyazaki has the sharingan confirmed 👁👁
This was such a fun watch! Also what was the music in the opening? it''s so whimsical
Great video! Nicely edited as well!
I only want to nitpick at the part where you compare Miyazaki's characters to "other characters of the time", the mentioned films Cinderella and Snow White predate Ghibli films by decades.
Very true! I should've worded it better, but that character archetype is used still today. But you are absolutely right, I should've used a better example lol.
You forgot katsuhiro Otomo
The main director behind AKIRA
the most influential animation in history
It’s little bit easier when the movie in question is based on a preexisting story like Howl’s moving castle.
impeccable work
he is not the sole director..there is at least two more inculding his son and isao takahata
Great work brother
Thank you so much!
Great video!
His reaction to the AI animation was not because he didn't like AI but because of the figure that the animators used which depicted a misshapen human figure which looked very creepy and disgusting, he also found it offensive to disabled people.
I think it’s both. Yes, Miyazaki did state that he didn’t like the animation and what it represented, however him and Toshio both expressed concerns on why they even wanted to make such a thing. Being a world-renowned animator, I have no doubt that Miyazaki hated the idea of AI drawing pictures like people do.
He is also against generative AI, domt defend AI man, it's pretty cringe
@@moritakaishida7963 I can’t find anything about him saying he is against AI, if you could please share it. However I can’t understand how AI is supposedly cringe.
@@troycostlow Then you were simply basing a statement on your own doubt, which is kinda of miss leading in a way.
@@moritakaishida7963Would love to see some actual recent sources where is reacting to actual Generative AI, not CGI whose input were generated by AI. Generative AI video and images did not exist back then when this was filmed.
Hello, I like your videos! May i know what’s the background music at the beginning of this video?
Very insightful!
Being yourself has nothing to do with being self-satisfied. It has to do with being honest and authentic, rather than pretending to be something you are not to fit ideals other people force upon you.
I didn't like the video because there's gaps in research (small things but that would be nitpicking, like the times he tried to retire, he tried as far back as 1979, overlooking Takahata and the Ghibli music videos and museum shorts made by other people) and the video doesn't that the more problematic aspects of Miyazaki into account, making it seem like his creative process is smooth, ideal and born exclusively out of the mind of an _auteur_ . He has a fantastic team and his layouts are made in a way that requires very talented people whose help is absolutely necessary to the whole process. That said, I see you put a lot of work into this, so please keep going.
very good video :) subscribed ^_^
nice video
In that documentary, he was talking about CGI, he doesn’t like CGI. They later mention AI.
Actually in that particular clip they are talking about an AI-generated clip that they generated, however in the documentary they do talk about how Miyazaki has his doubts about CGI. However at the end of the documentary he is willing to try it and he makes Boro the Caterpillar (A CGI short film!)
@@troycostlow I’ll have to watch that again, cause that crawling guy was from a video game.
how is the editing this good???
great video!
had to have the editing god bless this one
If he dies I'm going to cry.
You could at least have taken the time to learn that his name is not hey-o but ha-ya-o. Reminds me of people saying menga instead of manga
This. Typical Western butchering Japanese or Asian sounding names.
I’ve found that when pronouncing Japanese names, you usually don’t join the vowels, and the syllables are quite seperate, and usually without emphasis on specific syllables. This helps me with pronouncing
example:
Sakura
❌sa-koo-ra
✅sa-ku-ra
(Thsi isn’t aimed at you, I’m just adding to your comments
hes so like me fr
Has anyone noticed how many subscribers you have
I would like to know what he thinks about fromsoftware's work
Hi, there. On the book you mentioned, there is anything about how he creates and develops his characters? thank you!
he is tim burton in japan version
Yes basically
You'd think he'd have learnt to draw faces by now
Because all his characters looks the same with different outfit?
More like, Hayao Miyazaki- A Short.
Does Miyazaki really create these movies almost completely by himself? If he does, while I love the spirit and art of his films, I have to say that the storytelling isn’t very good compared to other compelling stories in media that I have consumed. Whether it be an anime, a movie, a tv show or even a book, the storytelling in Studio Ghibli’s films is so loose that it ceases to be a comprehensible story. His movies become a loose creative fantasy web of characters, where they are living, their motives, and their emotions. All while you’re desperately trying to understand the movie by stringing together Miyazakis creative fantasy ideas with a loose thread until the web you’ve created has broken and you have to start all over again. I love “Spirited Away” because that is his only movie that I have seen in which there is a complete story. Miyazaki’s movies have incredible artwork, incredible animation, beautiful music, and truly transport you to another world. BUT his movies are usually missing one thing. A real story.
The videos starts with Miyazaki is the only director in ghibli, so I close the video…..
I love praise for Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki is a master, but that opening line is innacurate, since it glosses over the other creators, especially the brilliant late Isao Takahata, who did Princess Kaguya, Only Yesterday, Grave of the Fireflies, and whose sudden death had a major influence on the tone and message of Boy and the Heron.
Bruh you spent all that money on the book and never learned how to properly pronounce the man’s name, wild. It’s not ‘hey-yo’ it’s ‘ha-yow’. But thank you for informing me that Miyazaki hates ‘Let It Go’ as much as I do😁
I actually like Miyazakis drawings more than the animations... lol.
Well, to be exact, the process of making an anime at Ghibli isn't that different than at other japanese studio. The fact that Miyazaki doesn't want to rely on a solid story before storyboard stage is something he didn't do in his early career and, according to me, that's the reason why his later films are so poor in term of storytelling, and why he is recycling all his old ideas in his later films. The animation and art quality is still here, but not so different than what you can see with other majors, especially with Makoto Shinkai's movies or Mamoru Hosoda's one. Sure, Miyazaki was, and will remain a major figure of animation, not only in japan, but in other countries too, but it seems people, especially anime fans tend to overlook him. There's many japanese anime directors with an equal dedication to quality, hard working men who deserve recognition as well.
Thanks, Jesus-Christ loves you !
You pronounced Hayao incorrectly!! Hai yau. Not Haiyo. Boo.
No professionalism at all. "Created by one man ?" Nonesense ! You forgot : Isao Takhata, Yoshifumi Kondo, Tomomi Mochizuki, Hiroyuki Morita....Do people know what they are talking about or are they making videos just for kicks (and views) ?
It's common to show Miyazaki's reaction to "AI-generated animation," but I think it's essential to emphasize the context in which he made that statement. In your video, the image is shown, but it's important to highlight that all he was shown was that horrible image of zombie-like bodies dragging on the ground. His comments were in response to that. If he had seen something similar to the beautiful images that AI is producing today, his words would obviously have been different.
F Oscars
im sorry. instantly paused the video. did you say jiblee? studio jiblee?!?! :*)
