I really like how the voice quality is clear in the beginning, and becoming more old-fashioned around the middle of the video when they were talking about cel sheets
I remember back in the 90s, Tiny Toon Adventures did an episode that pulled back the curtains on how cel animation worked, explaining pretty much the entire process of how it worked.
I love how we’ve gone from James having creepy hands every once in a while as a joke to now having the hands every other second.
It’s finally completed: th-cam.com/video/j2hOdE14CxY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zvKhYkcEbCrZmxPW

My respect for animation was high before, but now I've reached a whole new level of respect for this type of work.
fr fr
I've tried 3d animation, it has a bit of a learning curve, and 2d animation confuses me quite a bit, so it is hard. Also, I haven't quite figured out how to rig models yet.
@@nevaansbooks2078 yeah animation is really hard. People who do it for a living deserve more respect.
@@cunstructive_critisism5613 Indeed. I've only made 3 animations and it wasn't easy. To me, 2D seems harder right now, but there's also so much to learn with 3D, not to mention my other interests... There are so many people who work hard in this world to do all kinds of things, from the people who fix broken stuff to those who make games. They all deserve a lot of respect.
Never gonna get tired of animators animating themselves animating.

what?
Agree
Yes
Animation inception you could say.
Imagine cutting a paper into small pieces and then a gust of wind blows it into your eyes and every time you blink it cuts your eyes more and more
WAHT
so. I'm an animation channel from germany. Now I saw your Work. And I feel crushed by your talent. This is the best animated storytelling I have ever seen on this platform.
Danke für deine Arbeit
Fun fact, the oldest ever known animation is in cave paintings.
The best example I know of is in the Chauvet Caves in the South of France.
My favorites from it are the animals with extra legs so that when the light from a fire moves against the bumpy rock wall it looks like the legs are moving with the flickering light and shadow.
Most of this artwork was painted 25, 000 to 27, 000 years ago.
So yeah, animation rules and our ancestors knew it.
Holy shit
wow
jeez
dang
good fact but i hate france so its not true
As someone who has always been an animation freak, it's so cool to see James geek out about something I've been obsessed with my whole life
363 likes and no comments is crazy
Same
Couldn't relate to a random comment more lol 😂❤
Well you know, he's also an animator so it's not surprising but it's still pretty cool. I'm actually surprised he's only made one now.
bro I honestly think besides your drawings your voice acting ain't talked about enough ngl it's honestly fantastic
Holy shit this might be the best animation I’ve seen on TH-cam. No exaggeration. It’s incredibly smooth and well put together, colored well, the explanations and deconstructions of the different processes of animation are insane. Just looking at backgrounds has me stunned. The animations of animations are so well done that it’s hard to believe this is on TH-cam for free. Amazing work to James and the Odd1sOut team!
I had mad respect for animators before watching this, and now they have my undying respect with the colossal amount of work put into their work
I have always had massive respect for people who have drawn old animations they’re so darn talented.
Bro same . I am an animator
Inspired by Alan Becker, I tried making my own stick figure animations when I was 10. My results weren't even half decent, yet it was difficult to stay consistent across frames.
To get the results theses guys did without the ability to undo things on the fly and properly preview your work had to have taken mountains of skill.
As a new traditional animator, same!
The evloution of animation is always fascinating., especially during the time computers was just being invented.
I wonder if you can talk about 3D Animation after computers.
Like the Pixar times, like the first Toy Story for example.
I used to have the Bambi VHS, which had a special features at the end about how the movie was made, about the deers and all the difference layers, including the Cel animation you mentionned. My little artistic kid's brain was absolutely blown away by their craft! This movie sure was a masterpiece for that. I'm glad you talked about it!
I love that you’re addressing this. Animation is SO difficult and people forget that a lot. Go watch some documentaries on old Disney movies, it’s crazy
@@TROLLSDETAINED didn’t ask for the bot comments
Fr! Animation is such a detailed process and props to anyone who can create fluid frame by frame animations :D
@@TROLLSDETAINEDlittle kid
@@TROLLSDETAINED Didn't ask + TheOdds1sOut animations are better than yours + stop spamming bozo lol
@@TROLLSDETAINED how I didn’t see any animations better then this
Couldn't imagine how animators struggle to make animations back then in the old days. That could explain why animated movies back then took long to be released.
They reused a lot of cells too. You can find TH-cam vids where they compare old disney movies and what animations were reused.
@@des5592 As an animator, I can confirm reusing clips makes the animating process faster and makes it look better than if I had made a completely new one, wasting my time on a piece of trash 🤓
Yeah but know ppl r lazy
They used a lot of live action reference to make it look realistic.
des said what I was about to say. Documentaries on older Disney movies sometimes discuss the process of cell animation, where everyone would have different jobs, and they also explain different animation methods that were used.
I absolutely ❤ed it. Would be great if you make a part 2 explaining the other side too.
[10:05] As soon as I saw James's outfit I was just like "MADOKA???"
14:12 Studios used to do this all the time. My animation professor bought a horse for DreamWorks while the movie "Spirit: Stallion of Cimarron" was in production so they could see how horses moved. The horse he bought ended up being the one DreamWorks based the protagonist off of. While the Lion King was in production, Disney animators took a trip to Kenya for inspiration and even got to see wildlife (mainly lions) up close so they could understand their movements. The point of animation is to make something as life like as possible, hence why using actual real references is very important.
This reminds me of the four different kinds of mud Pixar animators played around with for the cars movies.
It’s almost like studios have recognized that life model drawing ‘in the wild’ helps to produce a better more realistic output.
As a Kenyan who absolutely loved Spirit when I was younger, this comment is amazing!
They had NO RIGHT to make Spirit that hot tho. And im not the only who feels that way. Were all goin down under and im not talking about Australia.
One of my favorite movies as a child
Bro, stop yapping
Didn't expect for James to start swearing that much, but it's comical how the swears cut off and I'm all here for it
Yeah it was really funny.
RIGHT!? ITS SO FUNNY 😂
Same lmao
It’s so funnyyy😂
Wait what??? I kinda zoned out someone give me a time stamp!
This is one of the coolest videos I've watched and it was fun seeing what animators did before 2000 ish
I’m so obsessed with looking at every single detail in these backgrounds now
I study this for college, and honestly I find animation absolutely fascinating. And it was you guys who inspired me to start back in the day!!
As a person who took an animation course, I can tell you that it is very hectic to even make 10 seconds of animation
Damn straight dude.
3d animation is even worse
I tried making a 10 second lip sync last year with youtube tutorials using an animation software, it was fun, and the result of my animation looked really good but that was 2 hours im never getting back
I love making stop motions but they take FOREVER
I make terrible animations ;-;
the spinning table one is at Cosi!! I love Cosi! that exhibit was really cool
James,I dig your choice of a horse for the 'riding a bike and looking at a wall' bit. Nice little nod to Muybridge. :D
Honestly big shout out to traditional animators. I could never. They're on a whole other level
Thanks (:
As a child, Tim Burton-esque claymation was nightmare fuel but also an obsession for me.
Agreed. It’s both terrifying and amazing.

@@Ipomoea_Alba :D
Fascinating to learn about all the effort, passion, and talent that goes into making animation... which makes it wild to think about all the people who still see animation as a "lesser" or "kiddie" artistic medium
props to walt for giving his animators a pet wild goat
I learned more from James than I did from MY art teacher.
force HS art teachers to mark an animation that applies both the 12 principals and their lessons, trust me, I did that and the only consequence was a psychiatric evaluation by the school
For real 😂
SUAVE
s u a v e m e n t e
True
This just made me appreciate animators even more especially Mappa animators!!
The whole rain scene in Bambi is still one of the most impressive animations I've seen to date.
As an Animation and Illustration student I can confirm that our animation assignments are sometimes absolute pure hell to go through. For our stop motion assignment we had to create a landscape model for our characters to walk on, create character designs with feedback, create said characters using plasticine, create a billion of storyboards to figure out the pacing of the short and then finally animate the god forsaken miniature characters whilst praying to god we wouldn't squish them with our hands. All this with a deadline of one month.
Since then, I give my upper most respect to anyone who does any form of animation because I sure as hell didn't like doing it.
Sleeping is underrated 😂
Then there's Nick Park who's graduation project at the National Film and Television School became the origin of Wallace & Gromit.
Maybe that assignment could lead to the next Nick Park.
Also yes, a mere month sounds brutal. Many Aardman productions take many years with full teams of animators.
@@hiccupscomics I lost a week of sleep in total to get it done and I did it 💪
@@taqresu5865 YES!!! Me and my classmates love Nick Park and Wallace and Gromit. He was the first person our teacher showed us as an example of stop motion animation using clay and he's the reason why most of us decided to use plasticine. The month was pretty short but thankfully most of it was used for animating rather than researching and we had to do a minimum of 5 seconds of animation.
@@Pugbrainey great job 🥳 I couldn't go a week without sleeping. I would pass out
As an animator myself, although not a very good one, I appreciate how we are finally getting recognised for all the effort we put into our work.
bfdi animator!
Same me too I'm not the best animator but I am a good one
How did y’all even afford school like that, I always wanted to do animation or something similar, I couldn’t go to college because I guess I got screwed out of my diploma in high school, a resource officer had an issue with me and decided to arrest me for damn near doing nothing wrong in the first place. I’d have to look it up but I’m pretty sure that not having a diploma doesn’t necessarily stop you from college, if there is that loophole I’ll use it for sure.
I just remember for years and years I was told to finish school first, that diplomas do affect your ability to work certain places.
But that’s why secondary dreams exist I guess, if you can’t achieve your first dreams, let it go, the second option is always there, and it goes to show how neutral, uncaring and cold the world is.
At one point we signified unity and love above any type of physical attachment like money, even then the traditional barter system would’ve lasted a real long time had it not been screwed with and changed to “oh now you ‘buy’ shit with a standardized currency”.
@@noahrhebb4759 take my advice with a grain of salt since i'm not a professional animator, or someone who ever plans to be, but a lot of jobs in the animation industry prioritise your skill and portfolio rather than your qualifications! plenty of animators are self-taught and while it may be harder to find learning resources it is a viable option if you want to get into that field.
@@noahrhebb4759 Hey!!! I don't know if you know but most animators today are self-taught and anyone can learn to do it for free. I started animation as a hobby in 2016 and I haven't paid a penny for it. There are also a lot of my friends who are professionals and they didn't go to school either. TH-cam is full of free high quality tutorials and a lot of animation softwares are free. If you want to try 3D animation then I think the easiest way to start is Source filmmaker (bit outdated program but easiest to understand) but if you want more of a challenge and better quality then Blender could be good! I'm not familiar with 2D animation but I know a program called Krita (a drawing program) that supports 2D animation too. don't give up on your dream if school is your only obstacle, because animation (and the creative industry in general) is one of the few careers you can learn do without going to school!
Man...
Hand drawn movies and TV shows just have a different feel to them it's just so much more magical and I don't know nostalgic I guess...
Great vid dude 👍👌🤌😁 :)
Honestly you should make a timeline from start to finish on how the process evolved over because this is fantastic!
Nothings more cool than looking a cartoon you’ve always watched then realizing that that was drawn hundreds of thousands of times, I do animation and it takes forever can’t even think of doing it my hand in paper. Crazy
we were the last batch of student to learn how to do animation on paper in my program and it was hell lmao, you'd have a huge pile of sheets that you had to scan individually and it only lasted like 5 seconds in the end 💀
@@highdefinition450 yah animation is so dang hard
p a i n
A kid in the 80s, I wanted to grow up to be an animator. That’s why I was digging your Don Bluth Land Before Time reference. I learned all about everything you covered. Then I graduated in the year 2000 “ish” (it really was 2000). I remember going to MGM Studios on Christmas Eve, and seeing their “animator” draw the latest character they were working on, some film about a Hawaiian girl who loves Elvis and has a pet alien for a dog. He talked about how he wanted to be an animator when he grew up, but since they were wrapping things up with 2D, he ended up there. I remember telling my mom that night that I no longer wanted to be an animator. It was Christmas Eve, and this poor guy was stuck there entertaining tourists. The rest of the tour continued where you got to walk around watching people actually animate movies in real life, only no one was there. They were all about CGI. 😢
Thankfully, things have evolved in a way where 2D animation still exists and people can create and be successful almost on their own, that’s what I hope to do
Is the movie about the 'Hawaiian Girl who loves Elvis and has a pet alien for a dog' actually Lilo and Stitch? Because that's a pretty iconic movie now.
@@rudraksha7298yep. I didn’t really know much about Elvis’s influence on the island at the time, or how much of a deal it was, since that he was also essentially welcoming this former island nation into our country as its 50th state. Nor did I know about this girls tragic backstory, and how her albums probably once belonged to her dead parents, so his music was a way of keeping their memory alive. It was definitely odd, as usually Disney had made movies that were mostly public domain fairy tales, or other stories.
But I recall watching them animate Emperors New Groove at that very studio tour, and thinking that was a bit odd of a story as well. So it was very unsettling to see the space where so many animated masterpieces were once made now sitting unused. It was also like, 3 months after 9/11, on the biggest Christian holy nights, at what essentially was the symbolic icon of Americanism. As I recall, the entire spaceship chase scene through the Hawaiian mountains was actually originally supposed to be them in an airplane flying dangerously close to city buildings, while they attempted to rescue Lilo. None of which was edited at that park.
5:13 is such a good reference, this video is fire
Thie animation is genius, hands, pulling yourself out of 2d, subway art, and vsaus. I haven't even got a quarter of the way through
I feel like I'm the only one who appreciates that the boy and the heron is going to be the first original traditionally animated movie (IN THEATERS) in the US in like 13 years.
Yesssssss we need so much more traditional animation. 2d works aren’t getting the love they deserve
What about the Demon Slayer movies? Those were hand-drawn and were shown in theaters in the U.S. and other countries back in 2021 and this year
If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s an incredible movie from the studio. Reminded me of the action from Princess Mononoke with the emotional intensity of some of their other movies
@@bigbadcuffI heard it feels like the culmination of all of Miyazaki’s films
I was literally the only person in the theater yesterday. Great movie, though!

Even thought disney doesn't make any more hand-drawn movies due to the mass amount of time it takes, I really think they should bring that style of animation back because it gives a specieal vibe to the movie that really makes it memorable
The Game Cuphead is a good example for this. They created this game's graphics also from hand. i must say it gives a very special Charme to this.
I think they said that they would go back to 2D again
That style only feels memorable because you have your childhood memories associated with it.
Hot take of the century. Noone has ever thought this before
Yo, 3D animation still takes a shit load of time, talent & effort.
That being said I would love to have 2D films back, really disappointing they've dropped them completely.
I like how nobody is talking about the robber putting images into a robot to generate new ones-
This was such an informative video and done in a really digestible way, thanks James!!
I still can’t believe how new technology is, and yet how good animation has gotten in the past couple of years. How much better can it get?
This is why I love Lackadaisy and Cuphead. Not only am I just the biggest fan of the 1920s look and the music, the effort put into the animation is simply incredible.
Yay u know lackadaisy
Personally I dig the many looks of older anime from the 1960s and 70s
Lacadaisy was made in 2022
I also appreciate anything by vivziepop
Lackadaisy is probably one of my favorite modern animations that feels like and looks like its a colorized 1920's disney animation. Partly due to the leftover outlines and stuff.
I came to learn... Ended up laughing out on one of the most comical scenes I have seen. Great work!
Not to downplay computer animators, but traditional animation was one helluva art and craftsmanship
And at the end James says: "And to honor the hard work of those artists long ago, this entire video was made with cell animation and hand drawn by our animation team... may they be remembered for their sacrifice" 😔
It would've been awesome if his team animated the video in the ways he explained. Sure it would've taken, like, six months more, but it'd still be pretty cool, no?
@@theantagonist801it would have been great for those artist to finish the job in six months
It would take at least two years because they are not trained to do this out of computer
No mistake will be solved with Ctrl+ z
They have to redraw that frame from scratch
@@A120AMIR12 Probably, but they're all professional artists.
@theantagonist801 It's a HUGE deal. The Pixar animators who create Spark Shorts on Disney+ had to take additional classes to just learn 2D animation because 2D & 3D animation are so different. I can't imagine they'd be able to learn hand drawn animation without months of additional training. Hand drawn nimation is a completely different specialty. The skills needed aren't even widely taught anymore. Expecting people to learn an entirely new skill would be like expecting a cardiologist & an obgyn to switch jobs. Each involves specialized training that the other couldn't pick up in a short time.
@@nilawarriorprincess They already know how to do hand-drawn animation, so that's one issue out of the way. (TheOdd1sOut is 2D animated.)
Who knew animation had such a wild history. Thanks for the education.

James is an inspiration. I am currently a 20 year old who so happens to also reside in Arizona, and I’m not in college nor do I think I will ever attend college, but I do believe the education is out their and being decisive enough to know what to learn is up to me. I’ve leaned torward working in animation or something with comedy and seeing the what goes where and the technicals from someone who just so happened to come from a situation not too far off from mine is amazing. Thanks for what you do James I love ur work ❤

Y'know I ask for 2D animation for Disney but looking at this I had no idea how hard it was for them to do. Holy shit. This is wild. Hand painted animations I can't even.....
Terrible fun fact about Bambi! An animator or someone on the team found a dead deer one day and brought it into the studio and began disceting it to see how the muscles worked! The animators hated the smell so much. Like the guy would say "come here! you really gotta see this!" and the animators responded "noo thanks! we can see good enough from back here." (This is from Working With Walt or Working with Disney both books by Don Peri a man who interviewed many old-fashioned disney animators including Frank Tohmas, Marc Davis, Ollie Johnston, and Ben Sharpsteen)
why call it a fun fact if it's terrible? ToT
wow.
more reasons to cry when I watch that movie
I mean, that’s one way to get some use out if roadkill
That’s insanely sounds Brutal if that’s real and a creepy fact
Big shout out to traditional animators.
Thanks!
Good
Nice
Nice
👍
Wow, I think it'd be pretty cool to see more of these educational type videos
For me, a show such as Turn A Gundam is just amazing to think about given that the animators managed to create a 50 episode show with hardly any recycled animation using the incredibly complex and detailed mechanical designs of the late Syd Mead. And it is smooth at that.
Just sad that cel animation have disappeared given it tended to be great to give a sort of gritty look to the final product. Digital animation just tends to look far cleaner, which is a problem if you want something to be more gritty.
i think it’s cool that James remembers working on Bambi even after all these years
Hi
Pls reply to me Pls
Lol
Hey swoosh
Yeah!definitely….😀😊
He went from wanting to be a math teacher to a digital teacher 😂😂😂
This man went from talking about a book he made as a kid, to teaching the younger generation about the complexity of animation in such an entertaining way. Respect!
Look at your wall after looking at that barrier grid animation 😂 (anyone else who watches those optical illusion videos?)
15:27 I LOVE ALL THAT STUDIO GIBLI YOU PUT IN
I remember in third grade watching a documentary about how Disney made films in the 30's and 40's and ever since then I have always had a huge respect for animation.
Animation is such a beautiful gift 🎁 Whether it’s hand-drawn, CGI, stop-motion, or any other method, it’s truly a gift 😊

James using the impossible quiz dog for his drawing at 0:15 unlocked such a weird memory. Thanks James
The dogs actually something else but made by the same creator of the quiz so it got featured on it
It's also called 'badly drawn dog' but the name was changed because a child's book was called that
Just letting you know
Thanks for explaining this I just finished making a 15 second animation for school and this video explains it very well
Back when I was 6, I always drew on paper with crayons and thought things like animation and cartoon were futuristic and out-of-this-world, so it’s crazy to see how technology has developed and helped us create beautiful arts like what James is doing.
@TROLLSDETAINED DIDNT ASK + STOP GOD.DAMM. SPAMMING + YOU DONT EVEN HAVE A TH-cam CHANNEL OH AND ALSO I BET YOU DONT EVEN MAKE ANIMATIONS SO SHUT. UP.
@@fpsZNTPTHEODD1SOUT DOESNT EVEN HAVE A MILLION DOLLARS STOP LYING!
@@fpsZNTPwhy you lying
@@smile6889His net worth is $3 million.
I love that James has learned to animate literally anything silky smoothly but still chooses not to animate proper mouth movements (most of the time). Not a problem, just something kinda funny.
yeah but no
He has literal animators…

it's similar to mario, even though Nintendo spends a bunch of money making mario games, the jump animation is still 1 frame. it's not because they're cheap it's because it's iconic, people recognize it. if one day mario has extra frames on his jump people won't recognize it's mario. same way how if the James's mouth always move smoothly it'll look like any storytime animation. people has just gotten used to the old way that it has became iconic
how did i just now notice he doesnt move his mouth?
imagine watching a cartoon with a friend and then your friend randomly says "hey, y'know that frame there? i own that now"
like w h a t
its funny hearing you mention warrior cat MAP animations (multi animator project)
Why is this actually a really good way of teaching someone who doesn’t know the basics of how animation works
I think I appreciate every animation from the 1900s SO MUCH MORE NOW!it’s amazing how hard all those people worked.
"But not impossible" turned into a vsauce 2:38
I was petting my gato named Hawkfrost and then heard 'Warrior Cats.' Did you sketch those fire and scourge frames, bc i almost cried happy tears
Holy crap there's no way he just mentioned warrior cat animations lmao. The best book series and what I used to ALWAYS watch.
bout the same, except i didnt -always- watch it, i watched it occasionally, but read to books alot
warrior cats the best book series ever
AND ANIMORPHS!! I’m having a field day rn
@@mr_riter same over exaggeration you know haha
I SAW THAT AND I WENT “BLUD KNOWS”
Fun fact: It takes 8 HOURS to animate 1 SECOND of animation for the animatronics in Disney Theme Parks!
liar
@@peepbeepmemecreep4581 he is oh most telling the truth with 3d animation you have to move every body part take a hour just for 1 frame every 1 sec is 24 frames witch means just 1 min of animation is over 1000 frames
@@kristinemiley6488also the fact that rendering takes a lot of time
@@peepbeepmemecreep4581wow such a valid argument... you convinced me brotha
@SpectreKritical Rendering is not a part of the 3d animation workflow until the animation is actually done. Also, rendering on the hardware we have in this current day only takes about 15 minutes for 30 seconds.
That fact that this man just unlocked a memory with those amphorous books is crazy
Mob pyscho is so good this refrence was so nice to see LOL
