Man, I wish you could have your own TV cartoon series or something. Your content is fantastic and unbelievably professional, may God bless you.
Crafsman’s reflection at 3:35 is just genius. Crafsman thinks about everything and I applaud him for that
Genius!
@@sheilaoakley281That’s exactly what I was going to say!
Wow! No kidding! I didn't catch that the first time!🙂
You have come a looooong way from paper photograph transfers. And the whole journey is what this channel is about! Awesome dude
Mac, thank you so much for the kind comment. I seriously appreciate y'all who have stuck with the channel all this time. Thank you so much.
I just discovered your channel and I'm a fellow Stopmotion/animator ( teaching to kids), and I find your past and current works inspiring & very helpful techniques
Not here to argue at all, but there is a definite charm to those videos too though. The overall diversity, talent and personality makes this channel unique. The recognition of the upped quality is deserved, hope you will just make creative projects that can still include those topics like the photograph stencils and stuff too if the inspiration strikes you. Best of luck
@@nengelen agreed
We love you too❤️
11:31 this really show the genius and attention to detail behind these videos. When he says "to keep everything starting with an 'r'." the audio goes to the right channel only. Beautiful.
I love when people point these things out so he knows that his effort does not go unnoticed. This kind of appreciation is so validating for me when it comes to things I make, so I can only imagine how much Crafsman appreciates it as well
Shout-out to the smear frame on the chicken beak! What a great animation detail done with the actual Lego's. So simple and so smart!
Thanks so much! :D I regret not mentioning "smear frame"! It's not one I default to but I think I see more people use that term vs. "motion blur", so I'm gonna incorporate it now. :) Thank you again!
This man's voice is as animated as his creations. 😊
could crafsman go a month without posting a video and just come back into my life?
absolutely.
:D THANK YOU for hangin’ with me! Seriously, I appreciate the continued enthusiasm despite the video sparse-nicity! :) Crafsman has a feeling we might be fixin to get back in the swing. ;)
Great! Glad to hear it. Was starting to worry about you!
I absolutely love how you put the puppets reflection in that shiney thing, you think of everything!
There's nothing better than a crafsman video to make a day happy 😊
This man is a genius but he will always be too humble to admit it - and we all love him more for it. Thanks for another great video, Crafsman 🖤
I love the dog running. Beautiful work my friend.
Came for the Crafsman, stayed for the John Reuben references (and also still the Crafsman).
I am sure it's hard enough to do stop animation in general but making that robot look like it's dancing naturally feels like a whole other level.
WOW CRAFSMAN !!! Thanks again for your encouragement. You really inspire alot of people to animate. You keep inspiring us to make more fun videos !
You are so welcome! But thank YOU for inspiring me and others! I know it's not always easy to stop and think "I need to capture some behind-the-scenes of this." and actually break away from the task at hand to document it... but it's so neat to see, and encouraging to us DIY folks! So thank you again! :D
No matter what you do, on any subject, you always do so in such a positive and supportive way. I truly appreciate that. Your enthusiasm, willingness to learn, willingness to teach, and overall positivity are just so uplifting. Well done, as always. See you next time, CrafsMan
Holy cow Crafsman, your production quality has shot through the roof the past few months! Your animated scenes are just immaculate.
That chicken’s beak animation looked great!
"Diabetes, you know". This man has such a talent for comedy delivery! I can't wait for the full-length version, Crafsman. You're the best!
Love the Lego Free Range Chicken!!!
No bond is stronger than that of a man and his crafs.
Those Lego smears are so clever and slick Crafsman
In the 7th grade I went to a church retreat and John Reuben was the musical guest. I don’t know how he ended up in this video as a model for your work, but that’s the kind of goofball left-field stuff that makes me love this channel.
Crafsman... you have a talent not only to make stop motion videos but a talent to explain how to make stop motion videos and then to make the video a video about making stop motion videos... and then this video is also about making a stop motion movie and then it's a video about that too. Crafsman... You're too much, but we love what you do.
Dang, Crafsman! Made me want to do more stop motion sooner than later. I wonder how Stickybones would look in a hand knit outfit? Could I make it look like Stickybones was knitting?!
Loved that you even had correctly formatted Movie script!
Man, you love what you do! I won't lie, one video a month is a looong wait, but that one video is always a highlight. If you're moving away from animation I'd love to see you work on something that pulls together the 3D printer, mold making and the laser (as these are all tools I currently use and I'd love to see how you get them synergising). Thanks for the inspiration - I seriously admire your skillsets.
Rory, thank you so much! :D Transitioning back into putting more full concentration toward live-action episodes, I think we can get back to working out a couple-three videos a month.
(And I'm still holdin' out for high-speed internet for streaming - we've got things in place already for that, as soon as fiber or something comparable comes along.) :D
Thanks again, my friend!
Reflection shot was well executed.
Yay you posted, I live for these
I love you Crafsman! Monetized or not, your fair use parodies have brought me an enormous amount of joy and audible laughter. Thank you!
I love watching your videos, they really inspire me to get into a playful mindset. Thanks for sharing :)
You're such a cool dude!
Thanks for keeping us inspired to craf and animate. 🙏
Missed you Crafsman, may God keep you and your family well and safe
This is one of my favorite episodes you've done! The attention to detail and creative energy you bring is impeccable. Always get's me in the mood to create something :)
This was really smooth and polished, you just never stop improving. Thanks for the video crafty.
Thank you so much for sharing your process.
Holy cow!
Stuck waiting in my car, but then a perfectly timed Crafsman video appears 😎
I've started working on an animation that will be shown to around 100 people or more. I'm very exited
I’m excited FOR you, my friend! :D That’s wonderful!
Wishing you the best! Stay tenacious - you can do it!
Steady CRAFTIN is LIFE!!!!! Love you Crafsman..with everything i have! Thank you and the "CrafsFam" for blessing us with peace/comedy/learning for soooo many masterpiece vids!
Let’s go Crafsman!
My seven year old son is super inspired by your videos! And enjoys your subtle humor and effects added in as well. He wants to make ALL of his toys and things he has. He wants to make his own stuffies one day. Create his own legos one day. He wants to make robots someday. Everything we buy… he wants to figure out how to make it himself. So I knew I had to share some of your videos with him!
Thanks for being an inspiration 🌟
My husband watches your channel a lot and I got drawn into it too now so we both watch it and enjoy your videos. You’re very talented, funny and inspiring! Don’t stop what you’re doing! You’ve gained another follower 😊
We love and appreciate any and all content! Thank you sir!
That was fantastic. The production is super professional.
I'm okay with whichever direction you want to go in Crafsman. A great video, thank you.
You are amazing! Steady craftin! 🤩
Autotoggle seems a bit similar to how traditional paper animators will "roll" their paper. Basically just quickly flipping between the last few frames back and forth to make sure the movement looked fluid.
Onion skinning is great, but the reason people would do this instead of taking their work to a light table (what onion skinning is actually mimicking) is bc onionskin just shows you where things were, but not necessarily how they look in motion, which is arguably as important. Though that's not to say both aren't incredibly useful! Just know gotta know how to use yur available tools.
You nailed it! That's a much better/clearer way of saying it than how I did: "onionskin just shows you where things were, but not necessarily how they look in motion, which is arguably as important."
Excellent advice! Thank you for watching!
We appreciate you! Thank you for these wonderful videos filled with goodness! We can feel it.
Wonderful video. So much useful information and inspiration. And as relaxing as ever.
Cool. Nice project and presentation.
My partner and I love your videos. He is refinishing our deck - and I told him, remember what Steady Crafsman said and always wear you a dust mask. But he didn't wear him a dust mask!!
Tara, thank y'all for watching! :D
And you may be fixin to have to jerk a knot in his tail! Pleeease tell him to wear breathing protection, especially if cutting treated wood.
I can't tell you how many times I've run a circle saw, table saw, chop-saw, etc. WITHOUT a mask. It's always later that I regret it, when I cough or blow my nose and think "HOW much of this did I breathe?" Even the regular ol' wood dust is reportedly *not* ideal for the lungs.
Please tell my man to stay safe over there!
Today was a long hard day only two weeks into a long hard two months. I don’t know how you always know to be there when we need you most, Crafsman, but we’re very fortunate you do. ❤
Crafsman, I can't tell you how much i appreciate your videos. I use them to show my students that you can work with anything and make anything into art. I love that you always tell the viewer that you don't need the fanciest equipment to make something - you just need the will and some basic tools. Peace and love to you, brother.
Always a pleasure when you release a new video.
Keep on steady craftin’
I was offline for a minute but I was blessed with this as soon as I returned. Thank you, Crafsman!
Can not wait for the figures. I'm going to get some this time around. Loved the T shirt design. Keep on. ❤❤™️®️🌹
I love the way you talk. It is mellow but so melodic.
When I first got a camera back in the day I made a couple little dump videos for proof of concept. This was before any tech was commercially available for it or video's existed explaining how (TH-cam was not even monetized yet). It was me a crappy camera, a tripod and a few objects and idea's. I never did anything like them again and instead pursued music but to this day they are my favorite video's because I felt I had made something out of nothing. The Craftsman is right about the sound, the sound is what gave my videos personality and credibility. Great video kind sir! :)
Awesome video Crafsman! Loving this animation work. Can’t wait to see more of you around!!
Your videos are such a happy space for me. Thank you, Crafsman.
Love seeing the books I had back in college when I used to animate. Can't wait to see what you come up with next animation or not.
CrafsMan you are too hard on yourself. You keep saying this animation is "okay" or "could be better" but honestly it looks amazing! I take my hat off to anyone even attempting stop motion let alone make it look as good as you do. You are doing some really impressive work and have definitely leveled up your skill level. Don't beat yourself up and instead appreciate your growth brother.
I'm glad to see that you've been keeping up with your passion, and I sincerely hope that you can one day find a perfect balance between crafting for the channel and pursuing more animated projects.
It is amazing the diversity of skills you showcase in every video
Enjoyable as always Crafsman.
Keep on keepin' on.
Regards,
Duck
CrafsMan, I hope you doing good man. I like that homage to the pioneers of film before you. They would be proud and inspired by your work.
Consider 3d printing an adapter for your tripod that allow you better secure the feet to the floor!
I've said it once and I'll say it again. This is the best channel on this website.
You know, pretty safe to say some artists inside Disney studio know your work.
If anyone was to get permission, might as well be you (when the time comes).
Absolutely terrific! Thanks for all tips! You rock!
Absolutely IN.SANE. Episode!!🎉
Your fundamentals of animation are truly incredible- the crafsmanship is what’s really shining here
Great stop motion tips CrafsMan! Thanks for sharing! 🫶
Crafsman gives me hope in the world. Theres still good worth fighting for.
3:35 Oh man you are too good
Great video Crafsman! Im so excited to see what’s next! Keep creating!
This was awesome and took a lot of effort. Thank you Mr. Man!
You never cease to amaze. Nice work!
I always enjoy seeing the notifications for your uploads
Thank you so much for your wonderful videos!
I appreciate you taking the time out to share what you have learned.
Thank you!
Love your videos - but especially your animation stuff!
Awesome work as always! 🙏🏻❤️👍🏻👊🏻
I love animation so much. Great video and tips
Love your videos!❤
But really, what is John Reuben dippity doin? Man, that’s as much a throw back for me as some of your classic action figures.
Also, amazing job explaining all of this!
This was a pretty epic episode! So much information!!!!
No shame in taking care of stuff in post production. After all, as our friend once said, "The worlds gone crazy. In post we're gonna fix it. Throw on ya' leather pants. Get post apocalyptic." Thanks for another great video. I might have to learn how to use my fancy phone and do some of this. I mean hey, I did a little (silent) project with a video camera from 1999 by recording and hitting the pause button with each position change, and hoping it wasn't too much of a strain on the video tape. This method has GOT to be easier!
TRAVIS! Mannn, I've been there with the VHS "animation"! :D This brings back some fond (and sometimes frustrating) memories! :)
Honestly, shooting on 8mm film was easier than VHS, but the tradeoff is... had to send the film away for developing before knowing if it was even exposed right. LOL! So neat hearing from someone else who's actually done animation on a camcorder! Thanks for watching!
The Steady Craftin video I've been dreaming of 😱. Loving the stop motion content, as someone trying to get into it.
Love you craft man I gotta get steady craftin myself 😊
Excellent video with so many great tips! thanks Crafsman!
Thank you very very very much for your extra tips tutorial......
Glad to see you back making new content!
Thank you again for a great video!
crafsman you and your art are just delightful :) thank you for existing so these may exist as well
This is nothing but wonderful!
11:46
Thank you for showing this!
I make stop motion and I think it looks fine, but then I put it in an editor and then TH-cam compresses the quality so all the hard work looks bad sometimes.
It's helpful that you show how you really can fix it in post (some times) cheers!
Real inspiration crafsman, you always find a good opportunity to educate and entertain. Thank you man!
Hey Craftsman this video was ace! I’m glad your having fun and have lots cookin in da oven. Honestly the production on this was outstanding. Much love big dawg.
I'm pleased to watch any kind of video you make CrafsMan. You amaze me. Keep on Steady Excelling.
You’re voice is so calming and your information is so viable ❤
I am so sad to see more stuff like this wont come out. I love when you push the creative boundary's. Keep up the amazing content crafs man!
I just started animating and found your channel. Thank you so much for this work and for sharing your wisdom.
