  • After more than a year in the making it is finally done.
    My currently biggest project, the M Trailer is done.
    Every journey begins with a small step, and then continues with next step that is twice as long.
    Biggest thanks goes to band Titan Killer for letting me use their song Knockout.
    Check them out they are amazing band.

    Special thanks to guys mentioned in the credits.
    Quote at the beginning is modified lyric from the song Knockout that I thought perfectly described the film.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    This project would have come out a lot earlier but I did a lot of side projects.
    I don't regret that at all since it has helped me improve.
    I would love to hear what you all think and I would love to hear your critics.
    Afterall critics are the best way for me to improve so I can be the very best like no one ever was. :)
    I would say that next one will be coming in less than a year but I can't say for certain since it depends on a lot of things.

    Aside from the character models, I think this is prolly one of the most fluid and most polished RWBY animations I've seen. Definitely is getting up there (or it already is) in the choreography spotlight with the likes of Mark Zhang and Tommylau.

    Everything in this is insanely polished, really really great job. It might be hard to really grasp but this is a YEAR'S worth of hard work and learning and I say every single moment paid off. It takes massive resolve to persist so long and still have every ounce of passion shine through. I'm sure even Monty himself would be insanely impressed by what you've accomplished; well done, seriously.

    After re-watching this a lot, I noticed one tiny detail that most people would probably have overlooked. Whenever Mazo uses one of his grenades, the number of grenades on his hip actually goes down. Even some professional animators ignore details like that, but you actually included it. Even if you wouldn't have, though, the fight was still really good, and the song choice really fits. (I also liked how some parts were synced perfectly to the music, including Mazo deflecting Skai's shots at 3:53 and Skai's combo attack at 6:54.)
    All in all, great work!

    • @nnooaaahhh
      @nnooaaahhh ปีที่แล้ว

      personally I love the little fake out Skai did at 06:45 (or maybe not a fake out, but Skai saw Mazo guard his torso so he change to overhead swing instead, in a split second)

  • @mmmm-d

    Bro this is superb!! This is the first thing I've ever seen from you, but frankly I gotta stick around to see more. Apologies if I wax poetic here! Learning Blender is a big goal of mine, but since I barely know much about it, I'm primarily going to commentate on what I'm more experienced with (which is writing, haha). And that is to say: you've _such_ a natural handle on character writing. There are so many moments in this trailer where you can see that there was not just thought, but conscientiousness placed into the moment. They might be seen as disparate pieces sprinkled throughout, but it's frequent enough and the actions are consistent enough that these moments cohere.
    Obvious weak spots are, as mentioned by other commenters, the modeling. But, as also mentioned by them: that shit hard. I did genuinely believe that the two were brothers (twins, in fact), as their interactions lent to the impression as well. The first couple backgrounds distracted me just the teensiest bit, but it's pretty easy to get over considering the most egregious one (outside the cafe) doesn't last very long and has enough happening in the scene to pull that attention elsewhere. The polish is placed precisely where it needs to be (the fight), so it doesn't matter so much anyways.
    The lack of SFX in some places does distract as well and makes the scenes feel more empty / rough in the ambient sense, but when they are used they're pretty fun. I love the sound effect you used for the bullets and energy blasts, they're just incredibly satisfying. Pew pew
    The effect with the pillars being summoned was really cool, though I think I might've liked it to go a tad faster? But rewatching it, it's not so bad as to be annoying. 6:13 seems like a really fun idea on paper and it was fun to watch, but I thought it was also kinda silly. It can work, be interpreted as a playful part of the fight, but also "ehehehe. Gotta go fast" was specifically on my mind. But fun is fun, y'know?
    For me though, all the rough edges melt away not when the action happens, but when you're watching Mazo walk into that examination room, feeling the exact same dread as he does while you have to wait and wait and _wait_ for the fight to begin. It's common and easy to have things drawn out for the sake of connecting things together, but you've really put the downtime into proper effect: not waiting so long as to cause things to drag, but giving your characters the space to feel what they need to and the audience the time to both connect to that and wonder what's going to happen.
    As an audience member, it was fun getting to see everyone's general feelings on Mazo's examination (not just _the_ examination, but _his_ and how _he_ felt). Y'all really used three characters to your benefit here: with two, you already have an opportunity to establish depth between them, but having that third party-an outsider to their relationship-helps us realize how founded their feelings may be towards each other / the situation. When he's getting ready to be tested, hearing the Professor's inner monologue told the audience these three things:
    > Why Mazo's anxiety was justified (he had a slow start)
    > Why Skai's encouragement was justified (Mazo had improved significantly in his time schooling)
    > The "vibe" for the proceeding fight (the professor's anticipation / expectation for Mazo's ability)
    With that, I figured that Mazo wasn't actually going to win, but he was likely going to pass the examination. It was an awesome surprise to see that it actually ended up in a draw: that this kid had the capability to push himself beyond his limits and have it pay off. (Thank goodness the Professor stopped them when he did though lmao, I don't think Mazo would've stayed conscious if he kept going.)
    Something wonderful to see is the faith that his friend Skai gave him as well! It's the most apparent when he smiles at Mazo when he keeps going, but frankly the whole fight demonstrates that faith as well. Obviously, a cool fight is a cool fight, so it'd be lame if one side wasn't trying. But I definitely got the sense that Skai, if not giving his all, was fighting on high enough of a level to give Mazo a run for his money. That, to me, demonstrates confidence in not only his own abilities, but his friend's: _"my buddy might not think he's gonna do great, but I know he is. I can't insult him by going easy on him."_ (Honestly, it might be an unnecessarily deep read of me, but overall: they may not be brothers, but they're definitely bros lol.)
    In terms of the fighting itself, you can see the dynamic I described last paragraph as well. I don't have the strongest grasp on fight choreography either unfortunately, so highlighting specific bits is a challenge for me. I got the impression that Skai was a more adept fighter than Mazo-perhaps Skai is a natural, commands a more robust grasp on his skillset-but I wouldn't be able to tell you why precisely. I also got the impression that Mazo made up for his lesser skill in his creativity, what with his gunplay and his various bombs. From what I remember he also utilizes the terrain more than Skai does (though Skai has a command over the verticality, lol birdman), which also creates a cool sort of thematic visual of Mazo trying to claw his way up to the top-tooth and nail and bomb and bullet-just to get on a naturally flying Skai's level. I don't know if that's what you did there, but I see what you did there.
    The momentum was awesome, I love how they navigated the exam room and seeing everything collapse was (chef's kiss) Exquisite. I know using bullets to propel yourself is a fun RWBY trope but it is VERY fun in this. Thank you thank you thank you for remembering that characters emote even when they're locked in battle, but also you could get senses of their character through their fight choreography as well. When Mazo was thrown at the exam window I started thinking about the logistics of the glass being easy to crack (with the considered circumstances), but it was also a fun way to signify how important manipulating (and breaking!) the terrain would be later. This exam room just makes complete sense and I can see it providing fun opportunities for fights, while also remaining near barebones in its simplicity (which, again, feeds back into the exam room making _sense.)_
    I really wish I could say more on the fight, because dear god that was fucking amazing, but like I said, I'm a little lacking there. This comment is also becoming a novel, so I think I should stop gushing, but frankly I think it's deserved! Thank you for sharing this with the world, what an amazing piece of work. I gotta check out your other stuff like, right now.
    *EDIT:* one last thing but important to mention for ME. Implied it before, none of the graphic roughness mattered to me or even registered in my mind once the fight started. Sure, it _could_ look nicer, but you're at a point where honestly you don't really need to worry about it? It was such a fun fight god bless

      the fact that skai wasnt trying his best but didnt go easy either

    You're improving at a crazy pace, man. This blows your older videos out of the water. I recognize some of your animations from Cake's contests, and seriously, you've been using every bit of advice from your inspirations. Your choreography and camera work is especially freaking awesome. You have a great talent for fight scenes, and it's clear that you worked really hard on this. A thought though, are the two characters meant to be related (twins, brothers, cousins)? I wasn't sure, but their faces and builds look quite similar. That is, they look far more related than Ruby and Yang are supposed to be. Otherwise, liked the story element of this being a combat exam. Gave us something to cheer for.

I also loved how you packed the emotional setup and payoff of Mazo's stress with passing the test, at the end when they were celebrating together, I was smiling with them, though I may be a year late (in relation to the K trailer) I'm along for the ride now, and I can't wait to see more of your work!

    alright serious critique time. after some thinking about it I say the beginning may have been too long, but it also sets up the fight pretty well so can't complain too much there. the scene where he throws the two grenade and starts to make his way back to blue; spent too long running Imo could have jump like 2 or 3 times and that would have been enough. don't worry about it being too realistic it, the audience could put two and two together. also, I can tell you made your own models and that is awesome!!! I'm not gonna judge too much there buuuuuut character modeling is its own beast and can take a hell of a lotta time don't be afraid to use premade assets. but your smart enough to know that bet your trying to grow your modeling skills. mad respect. couldn't be me. Now for the good news. that fight was awesome don't know how you did but got more and more invested in the fight as it went on. especially around the 5:37 mark those gunshots to the spin kicks were just sooooooo slick. was at the edge of my seat after that. didn't mind that the fight ended in a draw because the fight itself left me satisfied. I mean he did pass his combat exam after all😁. Last and not least take what I say with a grain of salt I don't consider myself an authority on this kind of stuff by any means, I just your average joe giving his two cents. can't wait to see you grow from here. alright that's all I wanted to say have and awesome day.

      @@CroatianLizard hard to say, general appeal maybe🤔 don't mind it too much I tend to have unrealistic standards for 3d models (I played a lot of genshin impact) and may have compared it to other 3d anime titles that are triple A so it's not fair to compare apple and oranges. buuuuuuut I will say that in the case of Blue and Yellow they look extremely similar like you use the same model and just switch the color pallet. In the case of team RWBY, JNPR, SLVR, and NYON all the characters have unique designs that gives the impression that each team member has their own individuality and makes us want to learn more about the characters. again, I beg you not to hang on my words too much your animation was incredible, and the choreography was Monty Oum level shit and I love to see it. 3d modeling takes a long time to get good at and may or may not be worth the time investment depending on what your long-term goals are. if your goal was to make and awesome fight animation you succeeded. no stress alright ; )

    I’ve gotta say, I am thoroughly impressed! Your camerawork, the choreography - all of it was incredibly top-notch. I especially loved the frequent long takes of nothing but action, that was super impressive.
    The only real criticism I have to give are the character designs. I think the two main characters in this look way too similar, and their designs lack a lot of visual focus. Maybe try and refine them in the future, but that’s honestly kind of a nit-pick. You did an incredible job, and should be proud of yourself!

    The character models are mostly fine.
    The only problem is the heads, they don't look like rwby characters.
    That's my only complaint. Other than that, they look very interesting, and are well animated.

  • @tmr3volver
    @tmr3volver ปีที่แล้ว +1

    this is a massive improvement. the models are a lot better and the animation is pretty good. The fight choreogrophy was excelent too, I especially liked the emphasis on them using all their gear and the variety of what they had.
    If I had one critiscism it's that the fight went on a little too long. A few parts felt like repeats of earlier segments. You're bound to see someone use the same moves based on their fighting style but visualy its best to not show the same things more than once in a fight.

    The character models are the only thing jarring about this animation.
    Their too similar colors are the only thing separating them, aside from everything is flawless choreography, cuts, music, the impact of their blows, and even the use of tech isn't overdone.
    This is Monty-Level RWBY bro, well done.

    I am convinced RWBY fan videos are the boomer shooter of animation; visuals and story don't matter for these kinds of FPS, only gameplay does, and with these RWBY fan videos it can look ugly, it can look janky, as long as the fights are kick as it wins the gold, and it did.
    Epic fight scene.

      worked on Cake station OVA 1 and 2, and made 1 mini solo project
