What other animations have great colour palettes to check out?
Monogatari
Love the video, if you haven't all ready Gravity Falls is a MUST WHATCH. Has similar vibes and artstyle to Hilda and is amazing, free on Disney +!
Bluey
Gravity Falls
Spawn, the animated series
Hilda is honestly the most beautiful cartoon I've seen, even though it's not overly detailed or realistic, it expresses itself with a quaint simplicity and limit of colour while avoiding total minimalism.
it was very nice to see your drawing studies of the style.
Thank you, and I totally agree! It's so warm and pleasing to look at. I really enjoyed seeing how the art style constantly shifted as the comics were developed.
Part of the reason it looks so good as well is that it had a solid team on a high budget. Nobody put out film-level quality for animated shows until Netflix came along.
wow thank you for covering Hilda!! Not many people are talking about it. it's one of this show that is so cozy and gives me a sense of comfort. definitely have to watch it again
Yeah i think the same!☺🙂🤗
Hilda is definitely a comfort show for me
A really great analysis! I also wanted to add on something cool I noticed regarding the characters, specifically the main trio Hilda, David and Frida.
The colours used on them before was blue, red, yellow, and orange. Hilda’s clothes are made up of primary colours, while David’s are made up of the one secondary colour, orange. This was to show how Hilda and David are opposites with her being more adventurous and him being more fearful. And Frida’s clothes are a combination of the same blue and orange, likely to present her as a sort of equaliser of the two that posses both of their qualities.
Now in season three, David and Frida’s colours drastically changed. David’s shirt, rather than the secondary colour, orange it’s the same blue as Hilda’s hair. This was likely done to show his development in becoming more adventurous like Hilda. And Frida’s clothes are now grey, white and purple which is the exact same palette as the Librarian Witch, Kaisa. This was also likely done to show her development in becoming a more powerful witch.
I could be misinterpreting it but I thought it’d be something nice to mention.
This is a great observation! I did not pick up on the symbolism during my first watch 😲 To be honest, I may revisit how the colours have shifted and changed in Season 3 as well. There's a lot of awesome things to discuss! 😄
The look of the show is what drew me to watch it. There is nothing I respect more than the brilliant use of color in animation. And while I can never figure out why it might be brilliant, I know brilliant color usage when I see it. And when I saw Hilda, I could just tell it was something special. Something unique with it's animation and color.
Yessss, I've been thinking about Hilda's colour palette since I first watched the show. It's so nice to hear it explained!
Thank you! It's so controlled and expertly done ^^
The color palettes were also one of the first things I noticed and really liked about Hilda. It reminded me a bit of the early two-strip Technicolor process that was used in film in the 1920's. It had a red-orange and cyan-blue color palette, which is a lot of what HIlda has. It's just aesthetically pleasing to me.
I don't know how this doesn't have more views. I just started watching the show and was fascinated by the use of color. Your video was a joy to watch and I am now inspired to create my own demo with the day and night color palettes :) Seems like a good exercise.
Thanks for watching! The colours in Hilda have always been so warm and cosy 😍 I definitely recommend you try out a similar exercise!
I really love this analysis!! i've always wanted to look at Hilda's color use in depth.
It's really interesting how the palette is so eyes-calming.
Thanks! I agree - Hilda's colour palette is a visual hug 🥰
Loved this analysis! I never watched this show but the art style is sooo gorgeous and I'm really fascinated with how they handled the color pallet from day to night. It works really well with the extremely light/pastel scenes (maybe early morning?) that are almost a bit washed out but in a masterful way. Also loved the demo at the end, and that reference photo is perfection! 😍
I highly recommend it! It's very wholesome and cute too. I really enjoy how everything works together and you feel the time of day and atmosphere. Thanks a lot, that spot is one of my favourite places in Perth 😄
Daniel, this is great content. I always wanted to watch Hilda because of its color palette. Allow me to list of shows whose colors looked inspiring:
1. Jackie chan adventures. (For example the colors leave the outline and it still loos nice)
2. Totally Spies ( The shiny vibe of beverly hills, even when they travel across the world, the shony vibe is till there)
3. Bare bear (The colors are magnificent )
4. One piece (Romance dawn era, just look into the color of the ocean and then the color of green chosen in Nami arc).
Nice work.!!
I'm glad you enjoyed the analysis! Those are some solid recommendations, I'll be sure to check em out 😄
That was great! It helps a lot to analyse why I loved these color palettes so much. 👍
So glad you talked about Hilda. The colors and style are so inspiring. It was great to see a demo done in this style too. Thanks!
Its such a great show it always gets me sketching when i put it on.
You should definitely do an analysis of Bee and Puppycat!
I fell in love with this show so I'm so happy to see such a good video about it :) Thanks Daniel
Great analysis and explanation. I watched this show quite a while ago so I often am pleasantly surprised when I’m reminded of it.
It's incredible, your decorations work so well. It makes me want to do this little exercise!
Thank you so much for your analysis, very professional!
bro, this analysis is amazing 😳 I suggest you now analyze the background to Gravity falls, they are gorgeous! I'm leaving a subscription and I hope such an episode will appear 😄 All the best
Thank you so much! I'll definitely check that one out 😄 I haven't seen it but I've heard it's good
I’ve always loved the colors of that show!! The show is lovely, and totally underrated. Great video!
Ooh! Finally we're getting breakdowns on the art of this gorgeous show
It should be mention that the show kinda went out of the way to avoid using as much green as possible. Yes they still used green but it was like Earthly green. It was only the Marra debut episode that they first used bright green aka the Marra magic!
That's a great point! That stark green used for the Marra debut certainly sticks out way more because of it
Love the video, please bring more Hilda stuff
Brilliant video, thank you for sharing it 😊
This video is so helpful thank you!!!!!
Sweet!!!! Thank you!
I wish I could see what it'd look like if you followed the rule about values for the 'night' version
Very interesting and your recreation of the colour palette was very informative. One question however I don't know if you'll see the comment, but why did you decide to use a darker colour for the door and fire escape when they were brighter than the brick wall in the day version? Sorry if you mentioned it and I missed it but I'm not understanding
maybe so the wall would fit better in the background? but I’m not really sure
Thank you, and good catch! Honestly I was more feeling it in the moment, I thought that swapping the values around would place a bit more emphasis on the shapes against the wall. But to be honest, either would have worked 😊
Why does Hilda have natural blue hair?
It’s probably because Hilda’s oldest ancestor in Medieval times was thirsty after a long adventure panting!
The Prince drank blue magic potion out of the cauldron thinking it’s water from the well!
Once he is refreshed, he didn’t know what’s about to change in him!
The Prince slept and his hair roots and his whole hair changed from blond to light teal blue! He woke up and realizes his hair changed color which stays on permanent!
The blue hair trait passed down to his sons, daughters and newer generations of family members including Hilda’s father although the mother named Johanna has brown hair!
The couple met in high school and when they got together, there is a rare condition that their then upcoming child will have blue hair like the father!
Johanna gave birth to Hilda who was born with blue hair when Johanna was 21 years old
Father left Hilda and Johanna when Hilda was a toddler or preschooler
Apparently Hilda has extended family who have the same hair color as Hilda!
Hi from the future you'll prob now know that season 3 answered ur question :D
@@kakyoinshikito466 I didn’t know the dad has blond hair but the blue hair is from her ancestors
I watched the show like 5 times someone needs to stop me
No, you need to watch it more 🤣🤔
@@DanielAngArt I saw the movie 23 times
5:20 Hello, how do we achieve that in our art? What’s the process like? Thank you for the video analysis btw!
Hello! For that, simply fill in an empty layer with 100% black, and then change its blending style to 'colour'. It will convert everything into black and white. Hope this helps! 😊
Can you do an analysis of steven universe?
Can i really these for my cartoon?
What software do you use?
I use Photoshop!
@@DanielAngArt Thx
