As a person who animates in 3D (Source filmmaker to be exact) I do agree that it can make that "too perfect" look....that saaaiiiddd its also great for those who lack the artistic skills to draw or make something without computer assistance, see I see your point in your preference to stop motion buuuttttt CGI gives us less artistic people the ability to make what we enjoy
+Tik Oh absolutely! Everyone has their preference, and different kinds of animation can suit different people and their various skill levels. That's the beauty of it.
+Cranbersher Also you didn't mention it (or you overlooked it or I did in which case ima derpy derp) but you didn't mention how with 3D animation you CAN do full stop motion animation with it (As in you mentioned tweening but mentioning how you can animate like IRL stop motion with 3D models (See: Gmod animations) should of been mentioned there)
I'm an animation major and I absolutely appreciate everything that I've seen here so far! The animation college makes us learn everything from stop-motion to CG, to flash and hand drawn, to sand and painted animation. This is absolutely fun and glorious and gives a good in-depth view of animation and their animators! Keep up the amazing work that you're doing here and keep inspiring others around you! Lots of stars and sparkles for you!
I prefer highly stylized animation, and what you do with felt puppets is definitely stylized. I'm not sure why there's so much obsession in the gaming industry with realism...we live real life all the time, it's not that interesting.
Not to mention all the analogue distortions and characteristics of still photography is captured in stop-motion. Lots of scrumptious "feel" that you wouldn't incorporate otherwise.
I know you're still getting your how to videos out (so this would probably be something to do after that point), but I was wondering if you'd ever think of possibly putting out animation challenge videos to challenge your viewers to animate a little short something based on a theme?
Haha, Cranbersher, your style kind of reminds me of the first video or two on Caddicarus's channel, except you've pushed the awkwardness a bit further and made it into a theme. It's hilarious! XD I'm sure there are people who get sick of it after a while, but I love it. Also, your recent Jacksepticeye animation is the reason I actually finally took a look at your channel; I'm glad I did! ^.^
I really appreciate the way that you look at stop motion animation. You can really tell that you love what you do and that you have a passion to create something imperfect beautiful. Love you for that. :)
I'm really enjoying these videos. I've always wanted to try out stop-motion animation, but I didn't know a lot about it. This series will definitely help! I'm super excited to try it out.
Well, I arrived here because I just randomly decided I'm going to animate all of Chrono Trigger so I can be promptly yelled at by Squenix and shut down...however Markiplier is someone I'm subscribed to...hmm..
i´m glad i found this! i´ve been doing a few stop-motion videos recently and some of your tips here are really practical, simple and above all useful. Thanks, man!
*Groans from the depths of 3D animating hell* I agreee! Stop motion is a lot more 'imperfect' but it gives such a nice feel and gives you a lot of space for creativity
Duuuuuuuude, you're hilarious. These videos are really fun (unlike others that just drone on an on about doing this and that) you add a new style to 'How To's
Id say that the real life puppets with real life limitations that are imperfect because they were made imperfectly by an imperfect human makes the whole stop motion process and indeed the results endearing. That why I am a Huge Tim Burton fan and apparently a fan of yours. :)
Is this why we no longer see Tido and his quest for muffins? He's just too perfect and adorable? (Just teasing! Love the video. It's interesting to watch, even if I know I don't have the patience for it.)
I animate with flash (or animate cc as it is called now) but you inspire me to test out stop-motion! I do have some clay stuff at home, so I'll probably try using that to begin with xD
AAAhhh i had to use dragon motion... or something... that thing... um, anyway i had to use it in course, and we used modelling clay and stuff... instead of being awkward... yay, uh... this helps me a lot with understanding stop motion and how fun but time consuming it is... except i'm still learning, but it's super fun!
I do wonder if the fact that he's using a Jack Septiceye puppet for these tutorials means anything. Perhaps he is also working on a Jack Septiceye animated video in the background, and that it will be the capstone of this tutorial series. After all, why not make a step by step tutorial while you go through the steps yourself?
You know... There's a lot of effort put in the animation CGI, and you can see it, or feel it. The thing is, I take it like that, it's an other kind animation using the same process giving an alternate result, but I don't think it is better than stop motion nor it should replace it.
I *HATE* CGI. In my animation class last year, I couldn't figure out how to make a model for the life of me. It all came out all weird and I had no idea how to properly animate it. I wasn't alone, either, my entire class didn't know how yo work the damn program either. People who say that CGI is too easy obviously have never tried working in Maya. either that or I'm just really bad at doing 3d models. I know I probably had to like practice a bit more, but for me I'd prefer either making little flipnotes. I'm going to invest on toon boom soon, though since I want to start doing some animations.
I just want to say this: don't EVER stop putting little surprise text in the video. They're hilarious.

also keep the completely blank screens, it's hilariously awkward and out of place.
Did I forget a question mark

Than make your life interesting

This inspired me to do a stop motion (very simple and very short) thank you for the inspiration. :)
3 seconds 10fps and 27 frames/photos
damn thats short
animation takes a lot of time and blah blah blah and the animation is gone now.
"to make it nice and smooth and buttery.." :P
Yeah! I'm really enjoying this series. It's great for amateur artists like me!
I know you're still getting your how to videos out (so this would probably be something to do after that point), but I was wondering if you'd ever think of possibly putting out animation challenge videos to challenge your viewers to animate a little short something based on a theme?
+Littleinch OOOOH I LIKE THIS IDEA.
+Cranbersher i like the huggy wuggy one
+geoguy tv It takes A LOT of time. Be patient.
I'll do that I think a animation challenge thingy would be fun
THAT WOULD BE AMZING

"Sonny Jim"
Goodness, haven't heard THAT expression in a while.
Yup, you are most definitely English.
I have no intention of doing stop motion animation but boy do I love this series.

Leinadlink he doesn’t have 50 subs
That's really cool! I knew the differences, but I loved the way you explained it. Simple. Fast. With examples. Can't wait for the next part!
i´m glad i found this! i´ve been doing a few stop-motion videos recently and some of your tips here are really practical, simple and above all useful. Thanks, man!
Always nice to see another Cranbersher's Guide even though I'll probably never even have any use for it. :D
*Groans from the depths of 3D animating hell* I agreee! Stop motion is a lot more 'imperfect' but it gives such a nice feel and gives you a lot of space for creativity
Loving this series :) can't wait for more
5:05 I love it when Cran gets all deep and real✊
i really love this series

Love your humor style
Could you put these videos out more often? I really like this series and would like to see more of it.
Thank you Oliver . You are soooo good at teaching and eveything. Congratulations :)
Thanks a bunch! knowing the FPS is going to help me out a bunch in the future!
I love this series
Jesus you are hilarious. You deserve so many more subscribers. Definitely subscribing!
_This is awesome. That got deep at times though~ Wow Cranbersher._
This is beautiful 😭😭
REAL STUFF MADE BY HAND THEY ARE AWESOME!!!
yeeey!!! This series is really interesting and helpful... good job :3
looking forward to the next one :)
i love how funny you are.. im only new, but its a great starting point!
this was really helpful! Im gonna do an presentation about all kinds of animation, and this could help me a lot :) thanks cranbersher!
He's about to tell us how to do the did! Can't wait!
"Is my bed more moist than usual?" XD
Love your videos! 😄
dude I love your guides! I really wish you could make more guides to things in everyday life. Like how to heat pop tarts in a toaster lmao
I've said it before, but stop-motion animation is my favourite type of animation x)
I also love stop motion by it's looks. You could simulate it with a computer but... You wouldn't get the same feeling.
hey this guide is really useful! thanks so much for giving us lessons :D
0:17 OOOWOWOWOOOOOW!! MY ARM
you are amazing and hilarious!!!
I love these vids they help so much :D
These are so helpful and fun :D
My favorite stop motion animated series/movies are Shaun the Sheep, Wallace and Gromit and Mary Shelley's Frankenhole.
I know this comment is months old but I have to give you props for the choice of Frankenhole. BEST.
Is this why we no longer see Tido and his quest for muffins? He's just too perfect and adorable?
(Just teasing! Love the video. It's interesting to watch, even if I know I don't have the patience for it.)
stop motion for lifeeee!!!!!!!!!!!111

Is my bed more moist then usual?
Did I forget a question mark
Do cows exist?
I died xD
This came out on mah birthday....much special...
dude that glitch on the start of the video
I swear to god I had a heart attack
Super helpful!
2 minutes in and just like that you won a sub.
"Is my bed more moist than usual?"
I lost it XD
Hey cranbersher! these guides really help!
also, what is the traditional cgi software used? (basically, what did you use?)
I know what you mean about cgi and stop motion. Stop motion is really satisfying
AWESOME !!! SUBBED!!
Very informative and funny lol!!!!!
I use Flash for my schools morning announcements but I might start doing stop motion
I do wonder if the fact that he's using a Jack Septiceye puppet for these tutorials means anything.

Clever, very clever.
+Cranbersher Heheheheeee
Goddamnit Cranbersher, i tought i was having a blue screen..
0:35 Yes, you forgot a question mark, and I forgot a period?
First of all I LOVE THIS SERIES.
Second of all I just wanna know where the outri music is from XDD
I like to make stop motion, but they are never very good, but this is really helping! That only thing is, I don't have a ton of money...
"RIP Cranbersher 2016-2015"
Rip:cornberries (2016-2015) we will like your video
Dear cranbersher, i like the music in your videos(Especially the outro one and Q&A theme) did you compose it?
btw great videos :D
"Referce Imge" I laughed really hard
I don't know why but CGI really scares me. It's like every animation with CGI looks like a horror movie to me.
I like you sir. You have my subscription.
This series is so cool! Just wondering, what's the software shown for the CG animation bit?
I luv stopmotion :D
Your awesome
This is inspiring me so much btw would it be copying if I like make my puppets just like yours...?
You know... There's a lot of effort put in the animation CGI, and you can see it, or feel it. The thing is, I take it like that, it's an other kind animation using the same process giving an alternate result, but I don't think it is better than stop motion nor it should replace it.
Of course cows don't exist, that'd be ridiculous. Everyone knows those are myths, Cranbersher.
Honestly.
Actually, the CG software does have a major flaw. You can easily identify it if you dare search for Toys in Japan.
hey did you try putting magnets below the table and on the puppets feet? mabye thise will help you with your animations
I'm thinking of being an animator, I'm trying to use Tupi, a freeware "Flash-like" animation software.
do cow's exist?
I *HATE* CGI. In my animation class last year, I couldn't figure out how to make a model for the life of me. It all came out all weird and I had no idea how to properly animate it. I wasn't alone, either, my entire class didn't know how yo work the damn program either. People who say that CGI is too easy obviously have never tried working in Maya.
either that or I'm just really bad at doing 3d models.
I know I probably had to like practice a bit more, but for me I'd prefer either making little flipnotes. I'm going to invest on toon boom soon, though since I want to start doing some animations.
Someone can tell me how can I make removable eyes and mouth? How the mouth got stuck in the puppet did he use glue or what?
Hai cranberry!
I asked myself what its happening to many times in this video! lol
+Cranbersher hey can you do a traditional animation tutorial next time
How can I computer animate if I don't know what I should use?
How long does it take you to make a 1440 framed (Minute) animation?
You should make a stop motion movie😊
You would like Bepler. Look him up on TH-cam. :)
I'm a Mega Construx animator, and in all honesty, I still just curious as to what FPS you use.
Can someone tell me what software or hardware Cranbersher is using to computer animate, please?
I know how painful it is to do animations, I dont do stop motion but any type of animating is so FREAKING LONG and HARD!
How many times does your hands fall asleep?
Sorry if I'm acting weird I'm just wondering ^_^
oh ja basics hou a bout a video with one woev and make that a series
Hey Cranbersher what is the song you use for the guide?
