It's really inspiring seeing someone I look up to talk about their process and how they started animating, or making any content, really. I feel you on the time management issue. College is crazy. Say, what do you study? Good luck on future projects! :D
I'm a writer. It's the one talent that I have. Ever since I was a kid I wanted to make animated films or shows, and I'd love to learn how, but the work required is too massive for my impatient brain. I have so much respect for people who can do it, especially those who do it as well as you do. Stay awesome, Shar. (Oh, and more smooth jazz singing, plz.)
I'd say start with just drawing. Concept art, fanart, stuff like that. Then when you get comfortable, try short comics, maybe one or two panels. You can also do very small animations, like trying to animate a blinking eye, or a smile.
There are so many artists who deserve to be famous and don’t get there. I’m so, so glad Shar is making it, she deserves the world. One of the cutest and most wholesome artists I’ve ever come across
I love how casual you are in your voiceovers. All the wheezing and laughing makes me feel like I’m listening to a friend talk, and makes me wheeze and laugh too! Also, I’m so sorry about your cats. Losing a family pet is always a hard experience. I hope you’re doing okay
my condolences for your loved pets, you are doing amazing keeping headstrong! Thank you for pushing through and giving us a look into your work process and your personal life :) keep on keeping on shar! you got this girl!☺
Aw, man as another self-taught animator who also doesn't know what she's doing, I can totally relate to your struggles of making animaions- it's really fun but there are just some parts that you have to rely on your sheer stubbornness to get through. And I also totally have a love-hate relationship with in-betweens and coloring lol keep up with your work and hope everything goes well shar!!!
As someone who wanted to get into art in highschool, but was constantly weighed down by everything and was a video game addict, seeing what you were able to make when you were younger fills me with a kind of positive regret, the kind of regret that gets you off your butt and moving. Thanks
I love hearing about your process for animation and how incredibly relatable a lot of your struggles are (especially as a fellow person currently trying to animate while at school) Always love seeing your work Shar! Keep up the awesome work
I can't blame you. With all the shit link and zelda have gone through every timeline, I really hope and wish them the best. That's why I like your animations. It feels different and chill. It's why slice of life is my favorite anime genre. Good luck with school and hope to see you back soon!
9:27 ikr! There's this feeling that you're being pulled into a different dimension of emotions when i hear certain music (most of them are anime ost) and they inspire me so much in coming up with a plot for a story
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this Shar. All of the little edits, the sound effects, and just all of it! Thank you again for inspiring us, as it's always a pleasure seeing you and your work. Hope you enjoy your winter break coming up!
I understand a certain amount of your animation pain and I wish I could give you a hug and comfort you. I’m glad you’re somewhat managing your life well and I am sorry for the loss of your cats. Thank you for all that you do and I look forward to the next animation!
I can't explain why, but watching the video makes my hand go thumbs up and my face to smile from time to time. I guess that's just how much good vibes this video has.
Good luck with graduation, Shar! Your animations are very beautiful and bring joy to a lot of people around here. Take your time, If your studies are your priority I guess we all can wait because we also want you to be happy as well.
I can’t draw, but your animations do spark the itch I get when I write. Please continue your glorious wholesomeness, it fuels my passion to write similar things.
It’s nice to see another guide on animation! Of course everyone has their own style and different ways to work, but nice to see people go over the process
"it usually works, until it doesn't" YES!! THIS HAPPENS TO ME 24/7 IN EVERYTHING 😭 ur the 1st animator that stayed as an inspo for me, ily stay safe n hydrated
Wow, just... you're joy, you're the concept of joy in this world. Keep going and good luck for the rest of your life. Don't care if it sounds cheesy, I mean it.
Man, hearing your whole animation process and Q&A session gave me flashbacks to when I was in my final year of college last year when I was getting into creating pixel art. Seeing the time and effort put into creating these animations and hearing the advices you gave is really encouraging and I hope everything goes even better for you in the future.
I'm so happy🥺 The day before this was posted, I'd started an animation(a short 5 second practice, beginner here) but in my mind I knew I'd either fail or lose inspiration, and then never return to it, so it became something to do just to draw that day. I didn't turn back to it until this video came out and I watched it. It honestly helped tremendously, and I've had two 4-hour bursts of energy to work on my animation,. So far, I'm incredibly happy with it, and it's giving me more energy. Thank you so much, Shar! And I love your animations! Glad you're still doing well despite everything else!
I noticed that youtube never gives me useful videos related to anything I actually need fortunately luck was on my side today because by whatever random chance this is almost perfect help for me i'm truly glad to have gotten this
Thank you for sharing this. I can relate to the struggle of projects that are too big. I started teaching myself animation mid-last year, and on reflecting on this year's progress I realized I am ending the year with just a massive folder of unfinished work and rough storyboards of ideas that are too big to do....and....not much animation at all. It is definitely a good thing to pull back on the ambitions a bit to prevent despair from kicking you in the backside! Even when I do pull back to something smaller, I end up complicating it somehow! 😭
I know this was just a very small part of the video and it doesn’t even have to do much with animation, but you’re the first person I’ve seen who’s like me who, when watching live action stuff, I always think “it’s just actors, so when this character dies or gets hurt, it’s not really happening” lol. I do like watching a good live action show, but that thought just pops into my head every once and a while. But in animations, the character has its own world, completely separate from reality, even if it’s not a fantasy. Thoughts of “it’s just an actor” don’t get in my head and if a character dies, they’re gone forever. No actor to look up after the show is finished.
I’m honestly so happy to get this video. Everything is just amazing the vibe, the song, the style, the small drawings, the editing and transitions like everything is so soothing and relaxing. So glad to hear you, love your voice. It was really interesting to learn your process for making your wholesome animation. Thanks for this video ! I can’t wait for the next ones
your pain while coloring is absolutely worth it, your artstyle and color pallet is really awesome, i can't really describe how i feel about your animation, but closest description of it would be 'i fully adore all of your animation'
I absolutely love how you capture emotions and hone in on them on your stuff. You remind me a lot of the slice of life genre. Like making things that seem so real and relatable. You use real modern things, and real emotions, and focus on them when often we overlook them. Slice of life is my favorite genre since it's like peaceful escapism, focusing on small moments, and making them mean a lot... so yeah, I love your work.
I'm so sorry you lost your pets like that. Seeing them get so sick is so heartbreaking and it's making me tear up just thinking about something like that happening to my cats. I know technically the afterlife doesn't exist but I like to imagine that when I pass I'll meet all my previously deceased pets, loved ones and friends and just exist with them. The thought of an afterlife like that is very comforting to me. But anyway, I'm sorry for your loss.
ooo this is such a good video!! it makes me very happy, it's very comforting. The editing is great and the cozy casualness of your narration is such a great way to calm down. the colors are so soft it's lovely ^-^!!
The quality of this video was so good??? I'm always blown away by how incredible your work is, even with something as simple as a "how to" video. Keep it up!!!
First off, I'm so sorry to hear about ur cats they seem so sweet❤️ second off thank you so much for all ur hard work despite these past few years and giving us such amazing art and making us laugh I can't wait to see what more you have in store! (I myself would love to hear more of ur beautiful voice~)
I just want to say… I love your work, and you seem super warm and caring. You deserve all kinds of love and happiness and I’m sorry for your loss. Please take care of yourself! And don’t feel like you owe anyone anything. What’s important is that you keep doing what you love. The rest of us are just lucky to get to watch.
Hey Shar! I'm just starting to watch your vids and I'm an animation student (hopefully gonna go through my last year next year to graduate, hah), and I hope you don't mind me breaking down some of your steps a bit more! By the looks of things, you've gotten everything pretty solidly! The sketch is still solid to call as a storyboard - even if it only makes sense to you, boards are boards! The thing about your version of the in-between stage is actually two steps at once: Breakdowns (hah) and in-betweens. In animation principles, you do your keys (keyframes, core poses) first, then the breakdown poses (which break down the movement but still in blocky stages, keeping in mind the timing of easing and overshoots and so forth), and *then* the in-betweens, where you can turn your brain off and animate straight-ahead. Hope this explanation helps you to make the process (somewhat) easier! And yes, the feeling when something starts to move and it moves *right* is true for us as well! (And don't worry. I too fear colourists. And animation concept designers. And 3d animators and modellers. And I fear you for doing this in Adobe Animate - but as someone who works with Toon Boom for uni, it's understandable. Actually, I fear and respect you more because you dare to fight after effects and premier pro. I do not tussle with them out of sheer pain I had from learning them in lockdown and suffering.)
unpopular opinion: I find coloring kinda fun, the repeating paint bucket motion and the occasion color problem fishing is kinda therapeutic and calming to me. I use to play a lot of grinding games so coloring simulate that but actually does something useful :|
Your animations look really cute and I like the small nuances! I also like how you isolate things by putting them in different colours so that it's easier to process it.
Thank you for being an inspiration and sharing your talents! One of the true measures of a person is how they touch others, and I would say is safe to say that you have touched a fair few. My gratitude is to you for sharing such sagely advice, and my respect for making it lighthearted and fun all the while!
Hearing/seeing your process was fantastic, but also the incredible amount of effort you put into this video is amazing! You could have done something easier but instead, even your q&a video is a work of art!
thank you so much shar!!!! this was so helpful and motivational. I’ve always wanted to get into animation, but I had a hard time understanding where to start and I got discouraged easily. your animations have kept that little spark of curiosity for it inside of me, so thank you endlessly for that :))))
As an animation student, I can relate to the love-hate relationship with inbetweens and the taxing process of the coloring (like damn both are a pain but seeing things move is so satisfying-). I hope you don't have any deadlines when it comes to your animations because having a project deadline is a very pressuring process haha. But I have to agree that the joy of seeing your art come to life is so satisfying and motivating. uwu For anyone who's going to take animation be sure to have the patience for projects like these because, just like what she said in the video: "Being to ambitious about something when you don't have prior experience on it usually you give up midway." "Staring small helps gradually push your limits." "Being resilient and keeping a good schedule is important." (Don't worry I have problems following my own schedules so I too need to take note of this :"D) Overall if you have the dedication to do what you love, then it's all good. Don't give up if the outcome is not what you expect but learn from it. I hope you have a great day and Shar, if you see this, your vids are great, hope to see more of your stuff in the future! :D
The pain corner was just relatable. I did an animation for a project back in senior high and six seconds took me THREE WEEKS with what available time I had.
fuck man, i'm so sorry you guys had to go through that with your babies. i truly hope they passed away in the most peaceful manner that they could. loosing someone that is so connected to you emotionally is very very painful. i hope once time has passed, and the grief slowly subsides, you can remember your kitties, and remember the good times you had with them, and how happy they were to be with you and how taken care of they were. Remember, a cat doesn't care about living a long life, or missing out on their future. they only experience the present, so for the life that they live, no matter how long it is, if you loved them and they were happy, that is all that matters to them.
Do consider setting up a Patreon if you haven't. Crazy to think you've made all this while still studying! As someone whose fellow artist friends have worked in a bunch of companies and studios, I think if you can make a career just animating straight after graduation, that would be a really reassuring path to take! You have a really unique style and can offer really great stuff to the world compared to working at studios making other peoples' work -- I'm saying this as a pretty jaded 20-something artist though, lmao, so please just follow what you feel is best for your security and self-improvement!
As a person who keeps shoving back animating until I’m good enough at digital art, so thanks for the little info packet to push me in the right way. Love the QnA!
this entire video just feld like a pretty perfectly wrapped gift box that made me warm all over~ be sure to take breaks sharlene and i'll just be here admiring ur work respectfully from afar ahhahah
I literally made a TH-cam account just so I could follow and support you I love your art style,music, animations, and your general romanticism so muchhhh TvT I hope you have a great 2022, Shar! ❤️❤️❤️

I felt that deep within my soul.

Hullo fellow college friends .0. Also Shar, as a graduating (hopefully) gal... I feel. Ples send help

Good luck on future projects! :D
thank you !!! :) i'm a computer science undergraduate!

There are so many artists who deserve to be famous and don’t get there. I’m so, so glad Shar is making it, she deserves the world. One of the cutest and most wholesome artists I’ve ever come across
9:25 , what an incredibly specific example which makes me fully understand how you feel when animating.

Can I say that your video is so refined? The layouts and design is so pretty and the transitions are awesome. Sorry I’m so entranced
dont worry we all understand bc we're going thru the same thought process
It feels like everyone’s in their graduating year, including me. I guess we all want to end 2021 on a decent note.
Wouldn’t that be because most of the people you know are your age.
9:27 ikr! There's this feeling that you're being pulled into a different dimension of emotions when i hear certain music (most of them are anime ost) and they inspire me so much in coming up with a plot for a story
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this Shar. All of the little edits, the sound effects, and just all of it!
Thank you again for inspiring us, as it's always a pleasure seeing you and your work.
Hope you enjoy your winter break coming up!
i'm a multimedia arts student and i learned so much more from this video than the entire term i had my animation class 😭 thank u for this shar!!!

Hey Shar! I'm just starting to watch your vids and I'm an animation student (hopefully gonna go through my last year next year to graduate, hah), and I hope you don't mind me breaking down some of your steps a bit more!
By the looks of things, you've gotten everything pretty solidly! The sketch is still solid to call as a storyboard - even if it only makes sense to you, boards are boards!

Hope this explanation helps you to make the process (somewhat) easier!
And yes, the feeling when something starts to move and it moves *right* is true for us as well!

"Being to ambitious about something when you don't have prior experience on it usually you give up midway."
"Staring small helps gradually push your limits."
"Being resilient and keeping a good schedule is important." (Don't worry I have problems following my own schedules so I too need to take note of this :"D)
Overall if you have the dedication to do what you love, then it's all good. Don't give up if the outcome is not what you expect but learn from it. I hope you have a great day and Shar, if you see this, your vids are great, hope to see more of your stuff in the future! :D
This is definitely a long awaited, worth watching video. Tysm for this! I’ve been wanting to try and seeing a good animator’s process.
You seem like such a happy and bubbly person. Listening to this feels like I've been given a warm blanket :>
Agrees, she is super cute :3
The pain corner was just relatable. I did an animation for a project back in senior high and six seconds took me THREE WEEKS with what available time I had.
This is so cute!!! I watched this while doing some of my own sketches and I admire your work so much!! Go Shar!!!
fuck man, i'm so sorry you guys had to go through that with your babies. i truly hope they passed away in the most peaceful manner that they could. loosing someone that is so connected to you emotionally is very very painful. i hope once time has passed, and the grief slowly subsides, you can remember your kitties, and remember the good times you had with them, and how happy they were to be with you and how taken care of they were. Remember, a cat doesn't care about living a long life, or missing out on their future. they only experience the present, so for the life that they live, no matter how long it is, if you loved them and they were happy, that is all that matters to them.
this legitimately made my day it was so good
Your humor makes this video so much better
Hey Shar I really love your Legend of Zelda animations!
Same, ShaggyYT.
Snaggy*
Your art and animations are such a huge inspo for me! Thanks for this video.
Sorry for the loss of your 2 kitties
Do consider setting up a Patreon if you haven't. Crazy to think you've made all this while still studying! As someone whose fellow artist friends have worked in a bunch of companies and studios, I think if you can make a career just animating straight after graduation, that would be a really reassuring path to take! You have a really unique style and can offer really great stuff to the world compared to working at studios making other peoples' work -- I'm saying this as a pretty jaded 20-something artist though, lmao, so please just follow what you feel is best for your security and self-improvement!
You are very relatable. And hearing you talk about schedules really reminds me of me.. Which motivates me to work harder as well hahah
I'm inloved with ur artstyle
It's just- too cute
As a person who keeps shoving back animating until I’m good enough at digital art, so thanks for the little info packet to push me in the right way. Love the QnA!
Thank you for this wonderful video! May your cats rest in peace 💕
omg the birthday albedo lumine and paimon is something I never knew I needed (and I adore happy cute ships too aaaaa)
this entire video just feld like a pretty perfectly wrapped gift box that made me warm all over~ be sure to take breaks sharlene and i'll just be here admiring ur work respectfully from afar ahhahah
This was so fun to watch. Love your animations and it seems you have a lovely personality as well! Thanks for the motivation :)
I literally made a TH-cam account just so I could follow and support you I love your art style,music, animations, and your general romanticism so muchhhh TvT I hope you have a great 2022, Shar! ❤️❤️❤️
