If you can draw using pen and paper, you're fine in the long run. Most animation studios will train you this software and give you license.

My life is a race against time... I try to make smaller projects because of this, (the emphasis is on TRY) but I am this kind of person, I dedicate to my project no matter what, and the project matures alongside me. I remember when I abandoned my first big project... my passion Project. It was one of the most painful decisions of my life, still it was also one of the most important ones... It taught me a lot.

if this is a movie i implore you to consider making this a full length film, or if its a tv show i want this show to get a green light for full production. i'm a sucker for dragons.

I spent 5ish years on a project as a teen that never really went anywhere before I outgrew it-- I'm having more fun with the next one! Here's hoping I stick with it :3

I don't have pen tablet. I want use 3d models in 2d anime. Can I do that?????

i am crying at work this was beautiful

Me:" Ok im not gonna cry." Me at the end: " Sobs "😭😭

I have a question I been seeking for awhile I just don't know how to look for the answer, in a lot of animation roughs you can see the animator has left a aspects out, like a arm moving or a head turn, but they draw the rest. is this because they don't need to animate that or they can leave that for the in between animators? Im just looking for clarification.

Maturing past the project is SUCH a mood. It does make me really glad that the comic I did had a complete ending. I'm still working on book 2, but I'm just doing it as I feel like it haha.

Dope!

If society wasn't the way it is now where money is everything to live a normal frugal life, we would have groups of animators helping each other complete projects without much focus on a salary and funds. People would help for the love of the project. The drive to improve in skill or the passion to be a part of something big. Projects wouldn't take as long to the point where we lose interest in it.

But honestly the way we do one thing is how we do everything

It’s true element, still going to get mine done - it is kinda 80 percent done and will come out but it came out of something I went through in specific period. My life has moved out of the thing I was stuck in nowadays. Still though I am very motivated for it and want to improve my craft so I don’t disrespect it with poor execution which is why I moved into other projects because I still need craft improvements and want to also build up a body of work so it could have better chances if I am known

Let me tell what, my nephew Aj says "Animation is fake why should I join you with this fakery" I just didn't care about my nephew I do my own on life so that I'll show my nephew how it can be useful. I always wanted to animate for my youtube channel "Flamesonic" that's my youtube channel name so yeah there's every detail I told you now.

One of the reallest videos I've seen... I've been trying to go back and finish some short films I've had on the backburner since 2018 and It really feels like I'm conflicted to try and add my current self into a story made by a different me... I think though that that can be the key- to really service the directorial voice of the "you" that initially made or conceived it- We can try and try and try to keep revising it over the years but it will likely never be "perfect" so long as we continue to grow as people, so perhaps better to let those artworks be a snapshot of your soul at that point in life...

Don't mind the pug. It's harder to draw with a pencil THAT big 😂😂😂!

Oh my God!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 I'm laughing my god!!!!

I recently just finished a cartoon myself. It took me eight years to finish, and I can say that it grew as I grew.

Hehehehe I'm ready for a storyboard like animated boards i love animating. But i can't i hate it i don't have like cool ideas on this storyboard

Which program do u use for this?

Wow ! This one hits too close to home ! As a 43 yo unemployed (for the past 3 years) animation solo shorts director, Jack of all trades (fairly decent at storyboard, 2D anim, compositing, editing, and well, directing), and I've had 5 TV series projects/concepts that have been marinating at various levels of advancement in my head for the past decade. And it's just so painful to realize that within my lifetime, I will never have neither the time, nor the budget, network, and workforce to materialize them... So even though the creativity and the ideas are all there, motivation is close to zero, and I'm not even bothering trying to write them down, I just let them fester in my mind... And in turns, my mind is getting parasited by this constant "what if I could make them"... It's pretty damn painful... Thanks for putting words on what I've been feeling these past few years.

Are you in 2024?

It is a pornographic film par excellence.... How can it be shown on the RUclips platform... It is illegal

I will continue to work on my dream project until it's done or death overtakes me.

People encourage animators to get into medical billing for money?

Don't make me animate......I'm very bad at it

I understand this to a degree. That's why I haven't jumped into a project that I'm aware can take up a year of my life in a while. I fell into the trap of constant revisions as a result of my ambition. So, I've embarked on several smaller ventures that test my work speed, and gives me more artists to work with since we've established rapport. I too have ideas - I just want to make sure the idea i choose is one I'm less likely to abandon due to unrealistic ambition.

If the project is too large, hire someone to help.

Agrée 😊

One reason I found out from someone because he had many crisis in one hit while working on his project, by the time he recovered from the 12 crisis, he was dead inside already.

Holy shit, that's some James Baxter level shit right there

This has to be your rawest and most beautiful video yet.

I have a passion project that I've been working on off and on since 2010. I was trying to get it monetized, but after learning that it was impossible, I'm trying to pursue it another way. I have not given up on it 🥲

I am still grieving (slight exaggeration) on the fact that Patrick Stannard stopped and abandoned My Dad the Giant

What Adobe Illustrator tool is that at 4:46? Bending the 2D square into a depth angle.

Claiming 333 ❤ Liked video! 😅

Finishing things is a skill to learn as well. I abandoned many projects in the past. Not anymore. Even in a literal life-and-death situation, I proved to myself that I could finish a project. Now... selling them successfully is another skill I'm still learning Haha

Peer Reviews are so important. Especially when you hear the same thing from a couple different people.

The not having enough time in a lifetime is so real. I work in game dev and it's so rare to get a chance to pitch, usually management is creating pitch decks for publishers in secret. I'm a UX/UI designer so in order to make my own game, I would need to learn A LOT. I can't hire anyone because I don't have enough money and anyone I would want to include on my project is so tired from their regular jobs. My therapist helped me honour my dreams by having me come up with different ways to depict it, like your scrapbook!

Dude, i identified problems in my passion project due to this! Quote: "journal why you want to tell that story -clicked it for me - i was writing rather what need to happen rather than what i want to show and explore

I think it helps having smaller projects at the beginning. I started drawing at a very young age and I remember how difficult it seemed to fully color a piece or have a background to make it look complete. Now Im starting to animate and I've got all this ideas that I can't get on paper yet, I guess it's better to have 1 minute little projects an then going for more. It's a figth against my own ambition jajajsj.

This could not have come at a better time. I've abandoned so many projects in the past, mainly from growing out of the ideas. Now, I'm at the point of creating a traditional animation. (Because I'm insane) Working on the storyboards now, but this video made me reflect so much on the ambitons of my past. And hopefully, I can prevent that fate for this one. Thank you, and good luck to the fellow creators out there!

I've been working on something for about 7 months now that I've been wanting to abandon recently. Not sure if I will, but might. I had been making smaller things while working on the bigger long slog, but have found myself wanting to do different things because of the fun experimental stuff on the side.

Gosh yeah. I have a tendency towards wanting to do long projects but I'd always drop them along the way because what I wanted out of a story has changed a lot in different stages of my life.

It is sad. For me, because of my job, despite how short it is per day, as well as the same old routine.

cool discussion video! I have been making an animated series for like 5 years now, and I'm kinda shocked I haven't abandoned it.

I've shifted away from visual media and more to writing over the years, but I still love listening to your thoughts on art and find myself relating to much of it more and more as I grow older. Good video :)

I wish to not abandon everything bruh

I manage to always finish my passion projects but they never gave me the level of satisfaction I wanted. So I decided to jst keep doing them as a hobby cuz apart from playing games after work I have nothing much to do with my free time

I know I'm 11 but I don't care about people who have been in the industry I don't have or work in a industry so I just uhhhh.... animate on my phone you can do that too but I really hate comparing myself to the greatest legends of animation "Gumball" for example is a cartoon but they're animation is so smooth my projects are never never never cool I have no freaking like ideas for my animation I don't share my animations cause I did that once it didn't went well.
