These 4 cells probably took a lot of hours to finish. As an illustrator, just watching the process already made me exhausted because of how much motivation and focus it requires to do this repeatedly for hours. The anime animators deserves a lot more respect! 🙇
I've just started my digital animation major, and I understand exactly what u mean T_T
Not THAT much really. But yeah, it starts to be exhausting on coloring\inbetweenng stage...
I am 100% guilty of it but, throw motivation in the trash, and see it more like your day work.
Do you have ANY food or item you like a lot?
I like pizza and frozen very much.
And in order to eat pizza, someone has to make it, either I, or someone else, but let's say someone else has to do it.
Now imagine if whoever makes pizza stops, in the middle of the week, because they don't have the motivation to make the pizza, even though they own a pizza store.
I would not have any pizza to eat, ahhhh how horrible... he or she has to make the pizza, its his or her day job. I will pay for the pizza, I want it, why isn't there. Why is today not a pizza day.
Woe woe woeeee.
All because of motivation, instead of "Just make the darn pizza."
And likewise.
Just make the darn image. Your motivation plays no role, just schedule some vacation time in there, but otherwise, treat drawing like a pizzamaking job.
You might not have the customers to prove it, but if you did, and you decided to "Oh I'm not drawing it today" and a customer enters your "The it that is drawn" store, cause it's still open of course.
And comes in and you just say" Sorry no motivation" and you'd crush the customers spirit.
Make the pizza, Kyru.
Make the pizza, Dorkly Morkly.
Make the pizza, everyone.
Just make it.
Motivation does not come into it, you're running a drawshop and there have to be drawing, so, draw.
It's not done by one person tho
Was inspired n motivated at 1st, but motivation dwindled, then I grew to love it as work n something I need to do
Quick tip: there is actually already a shortcut for rotating the canvas... you can use shift+space... and to reset the rotation you can double left click while holding down the shortcut (shift+space+double click).
I replace mine to just r to match it with photoshop
meanwhile i never use rotation, just rotate my hand or gesture ahahha.
@@vetoro1548 we don't have a screen tablet
😊
I have buttons on my xp pen art tablet and I set one of them to the rotate canvas, so I just hold it and use my pen to rotate
Imagine drawing all day for just a few seconds.
Thank you all the animators in the world you are amazing!
Make my childhood till now be awesome to life!
Yeah, I started to learn animating for 2 weeks now. I just finished a 20-second scene in 1 week. And the art style is only minimalist style. Animation is truly a lot of work.
Imagine! This's the life of the animators.
I think and imma be honest... this is by far the easiest way to understand how to use the timeline and the folders. Without making it too complicated I could easily understand and already eager to hop on clip studio to animate something! Thank you for making this animation tutorial dude. I was just gonna stick to toon boom due to the difficulty but now I have more options 🙏🏾✨
21:36 I search all of the internet to find this feature to find the best possible way to do it and no where it was to be seen but finally the search is over , you are a champ man
Does not work for me. I have to click the line a second time for it to color that area. What am I doing wrong?
it's an old comment, you probably found the solution by now, but i guess this happens due to the fill tool settings, right ? Something about tolerance option or the opening margin option, idk@@Juusokakku
Also, note how Dong, after telling you to use the Onion Skin to draw the Animation Reference drawing (the one with the Triangle) actually flips between drawings, too.
This is kind of important so he (or you) does not end up getting trapped in a boring, robotic trace.
By flipping to the actual drawings instead of purely relying on onion skin (or the lightbox) you can see arcs between the line points better.
It's also why real oldschool animators 'flipped' or 'rolled' the pages with their fingers before putting down new lines.
Some animators don't even use the onion skin for some cuts, especially ones with big movement and only use onion skin/lightbox for very very fine movements where the spacing of the lines is really important and onion skin helps not drawing the line over the old one.
But you can do whatever you want. Just be aware that flipping the drawings and observing how the lines and corner/start end points of the lines move from the first drawing to the next, while you draw the inbetween of that, can be really helpful in getting a more 'flowy' inbetween.
I think this is so second nature to him that he didn't even think of mentioning it. Something he cannot really be blamed for. But I still think it's worth pointing it all out.
Wtf this is the cleanest, straight to the point guide I've seen on Animation.
Straight to the point and clear demonstration, really great tutorial!
The curved line tool totally opened my eyes, I’ve tried animation several times but I always get frustrated on the final clean up pass because my line art looks different on every layer. I’ll definitely try this for more consistency
oh man, I wish I watched this tutorial years ago! Animating in CS makes sooo much more sense now; I was always overwhelmed by the amount of layers there are.
Animation work is so underrated.
Thank you soooo much for your videos, especially this one! I just had an interview + test for an in-between position and I used your videos to study for the whole week. It really helps me prepare a lot and know what to expect. Now I got the job thanks to you 😭
Just wanted to comment that I only found your channel recently and your videos are so clear and succinct in their delivery! I appreciate how you sprinkle little tips /shortcut keys as you worked through the video, esp for someone who just started CSP! Thank you very much!
this video is a blessing, it's so much fun to animate while watching. Finally I understand the overwhelming layout of CSP, it's so cool!
Very professional in depth video, eventually get to see it cause of the algorithm, best of all intros out there, heartfelt thanks to Dong Chang.
This is amazing! You explain things very clearly, so it's super helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this tutorial. I may never work in a proper animation studio cause of personal situation but I do work on a personal project during my off hours. So getting acquainted with current practises, terminologies like 'tie-down' etc, what they mean, how to do them etc.. really helps me keep going and improve. I really appreciate you taking time out to teach and share. Thank you
I've been wanting to get into animation for a while now for personal projects so this video is just what I needed. Thank you very much, Dong.
10:20 THANK YOU! Just that tip alone saved me so much time and hassle XD
This tutorial is amazing, I've been looking for tips and ways to do a more professional job for years and you did it all in one video.
Please continue to meet your goals, your work is wonderful.
I do anime illustrations so I'm pretty good with clip studio paint, but still your video was very informative and straight to the point. Thank you very much for your effort.
fantastic tutorial, taught me a bunch of things abt clip studio paint that i didnt know before!!!
O wow I just got this software and I’ve been looking for a good tutorial for anime and stuff I’m soo glad you made this, I’m so lucky
this video is so good, very straight forward i thought i already knew some of this but still learned some nice stuff
Thank Dong TWT I really need this.
Another fantastic and educational video! Please keep making great content! Big fan!
thank you, i too like watching tanya and her crazy smile
You are kind of the rode model / guide I needed in my life right now, I am so grateful to the yt algo to show me your work, I feel like I might have a chance to do somehting with my life now. Thank you very very much !
its crazy to think i just watched this for free, thank you so much, i learned a lot
thanks for making these videos. I learn a lot from it. Hope you can make more of these video in your free time especially composition after effect
Okay this was actually SUPER interesting and insightful. THANK YOU
The thing that surprises me most in this tutorial, as someone who has been animating for a while, is the fact you make extra inbetweens in the Cleanup stage, and not during the tiedown or even the rough animation stages.
you animated the little devil aaaa amazing
This was so perfect, picked up so many small things I didn't know before, thank you Dong!
Will you ever cover compositing for anime someday? And the notations that come with them?
I haven't been able to find anyone that covers this, even any on compositing in 2d animation at all. There is a series of books on comp in After Effects for anime by Ohira Yukiteru, but I can't find any version that isn't in japanese, and I can't read and decipher any of it
What program is he using
You're a very good teacher! Thank you
Actually learned a lot from this i'm eager to try on my next animation!
very helpful
thanks my animation finally turn out much better. thanks to this video.
Wow😲 I really appreciated I really appreciated that tutorial, thank you for the share🙏, that's amazing🤩! I always wished to know some of the standard of japanese anime and BOOM!!! Your video just came out 😄
I just got recommended this video and I'm currently practicing animation and I also love Youjo Senki
Love ur videos thx for another lesson 💯
Omgggg whaaatttttt that info is brilliant u are an angel omg thank uuuuu
Your video is so helpful ❤
Please upload more videos i really need them! ❤❤❤
I decided that i would try and copy what you do as a way to learn, step for step to just see what I could get the hang of with the drawing. 2 hours have passed and im still at 4:17 I will keep on keeping on but man is this a great lesson on how hard it really is to just get the smallest things right
Idk what it is about the eyes but the shapes are just messin with me and I can seem to get sizes correct either. Making sure things are not too big or too small is also a big problem I am running into.
Edit 1:After minutes of struggle after this I decided to rewatch and saw you drew bottom up, is was going up down, so I decided bottom up was what I needed. Sure enough after a few attempts I got it it is so weird how that works.
Edit 2: I have reached the hair and… I have made some very wrong choices… remember how I stated I have problems with how things are sized? I made a lot of things too big and some parts too small, it is such a problem that I am going to have to start over. I spent 3 hrs on this and now it has dissolved into ruin. I won’t give up but this is going to be a task for a more motivated me lmao
Clip studio was such a great software. It's a shame they're going for the monthly subscription model.
I'm as TVpaint guy forever, but It was worth learning CSP for personal reasons. Your vids are great.
There's still going to be perpetual license options. Each version major version will have one. Subscription is only if you absolutely want the new features as they come out. Otherwise just wait and buy the perpetual license for the next major version.
Torrent
version 2 is a completely separate product, if anything just wait for version 3 when it comes out that includes all the version 2 updates. if anything all you need is something to draw, free assets, the liquify tool, and big rendering which is what you only need really.
amazing work.. thanks for sharing sensei
thnks for the TimeSheet! I'll upgrade my patreon donation
Thank you so much Dong Chang Sensei!!😅
Great video Dong! It would be really helpful if you could make a video on how to implement 2d animation with 3d backgrounds without having to always animated every single frame of each structure and building. How to import into blender and then composite it in after effects. There are many videos on doing the 2d animation but not the finalizing step at the end.
Why i didnt see this video before! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
perfect timing!
DONG THABKS FORT HIS VISEO DARLING
Really love your tutorials. Can you drop some videos on how to master anime style art (Art tutorial basically). I will be really glad
I followed this same process in Krita with the same result as you thank you!
this what i need,,tq so much
life saving tutorial
Amazing 🔥👏👏👏
Great video! Please make more advance tutorials in clip!
I love this workflow, though inbetweening at the cleanup stage is a mad skill I'm simply failing to acquire =O
Great tutorial 👏👏👏💯💯💯
Thank you so much sir
ty bro, keep going!
very interesting thanks ^^
impressive!
Amazing🙏🙏
Thanks man...thank you
It's really hard to make an animation 🥺your work is extremely superb ✨✨
thank you so much
The best I've seen and on to the point. Is it all right to ask if you could do a tutorial for compositing the animations made?
Thank you。
Let's gooo
Great walkthrough. Could you cover a background breakdown or a dialogue scene. Thank you
Hey,I love your content and learned a ton from it! Can you please make a "how to do poses video":)
This is amazing! Thank you for sharing from you professional experience! Are there any resources for learning the nitty gritty of the Anime industry pipeline workflow?
drawing the in-between without a sketch was a crazy move omg😭😭😭
-inhales-
TAAANYAAAAAAA
I'm suprised you smoothed the aliasing in CSP given how you showed how compositing is done in After Effects, though I suppose that's not a big deal for the sake of this particular demonstration lol.
Is there a way to composit anime in CSP further like how it was done in After Effects or no? I'm just curious lol.
This is super cool and I hope you make more videos like this again soon! I don't know why but it's so incredibly fun to watch the breakdown of it all! P.S. thank you for teaching me about the various coloring techniques! I do all my digital art in CSP but I haven't experimented with the different coloring methods and features due to being too intimidated by the learning curve beyond what I got accustomed to. It really showed me that I need to step out of my comfort zone more often and practice with the program more. Thank you for that!
Started animating feels like my soul and sanity Left my body but gotta keep trying . Fighting 💪💪
Thanks man you earned my subscribe. Can you make how to do backgrounds please 🙏
Thank you for the video! Can you do a video where you show exporting to after effects and show the common things you do for composition and effects etc? I was always interested to see what I should be doing to my animations in after effects. Like what are the most common effects that we should know or that are used often.
25:19 had missed that the first go around of the video and came across it by chance, was curious why my stuff looked like pixel art and the end result in the video smoother
nice
Brooo pleasee use this simple example and show how to do basic composition or lighting etc . This has helped so much but can you do the full process
Mannn retas was way more straight forward with the color separation lines :(
I wish csp would make a feature where it automatically colors the selected colours wahh
Thanks for this tutorial! Looking forward to trying Clip Studio more seriously. Out of curiosity, what's the rationale for having the dpi set to 192?
I usually separate the head from the hair on a different folder. This way I can freely animate the motion of the hair. Usually animate my head bald or shaved head haha
Your channel is awesome! And very helpful, thank you. Have you tried krita? What do you think about it ( I now the software does not matter) I would like to know your opinion about the tools. And thank you again!
IVE BEEN DOING IT ALL WRONG I FEEL SO STUPID thank you big time bro 🙏🙏
Please make another tutorial for csp
Dong chang make one more
Great video! Does this mean no more Opentoonz tutorials?
I know how to do all of these (kind of, i get the idea of it) but its just that i dont have a project to begin with! I have no ideas of what to animate. Even the head turns i draw, eventually i either pause and never come back to it or i give up midway.
Wow
God I was looking for this video for a long time, especially that explains how genga is later on colored. My question remains is how to keep G-Pen and Curve tool sizes the same. For me these lines are still thick and when smoothed out, they are sometimes remain Non-Anti-Aliased or smoothed out, but very rough.
5:42 bookmark
Did you custom the default CSP’s G-Pen for this video tutorial? Since I see your G-Pen brush is placed on the custom tab, like you have a stack of brushes used specifically for your animation works that are different from the default ones.
And also, your G-Pen brush’s tip size is not as small as the default G-Pen, iirc. May I know what customization you set for this?
✨
Awesome! thank you for the tutorial!
I have a question that I recetly saw on twitter and anybody mind to tell me how to export animation with the tamplate as well?
Hello Dong!
I'm an old Photoshop and Illustrator user. I got to know CSP and am using the trial version of Pro. What are the advantages of using the EX version? Thank you and good luck with the channel!
