I’ve heard plenty of good things about this show, but still haven’t watched it🤦🏽♂️ The fact that you worked on it gives me more reasons to watch it.
WATCH ITTT
WATCH IT!! Its goood
It's freakin' amazing. Watch it!
I finished it in one sitting and didn’t know anything abt it so it’s a very easy watchhh
watch it
No way you were storyboarding for this series. That's crazy👏
I was planning to watch it and now I'm definitely watching it🙌
That’s the same question I have literally lol 😂
Storyboarding in photoshop feels like such a tedious job to me - Storyboard pro makes the process so seemless and easy to produce animatics (but I do miss the custom brushes of photoshop, so I would love to hear about how to board in Photoshop!!)
It can be wonky. I use it out of necessity, but I enjoy the flexibility it has and the brushes allow me look into the style of my project further.
Storyboard in Clip Studio! Way better. Brushes like photoshop, playback like Storyboard PRO
I think SPA studio (Klaus) has gone full blender for pre-vis, boards, and animation. Less round-tripping to other software.
@@NathanRitchie Story boarding in blender is actually really nice once you get the hang of it.
On some projects I'll intentionally Put the frame rate at 30 fps. And then board at 3 or 6 fps. Creating a rough on every 5th frame or 10th frame on a Rough line layer.
Then I render and export the story board when it's done. But instead of starting from scratch for the next phase of the project, I reuse the same file for the next phase of the project. Simply creating a new layer for the next stage of my animation. So if I need to look at the board again as reference I can just switch back to that layer.
Having everything built into the same file has really helped my work flow. As it means I don't have to constantly switch back and forth between looking at my laptop and my monitor. Having the story board ready and accessible on the same file as my main project just makes everything go way smoother.
dude, YOU storyboarded on this?!?! blue eye samurai was so good, thank you for helping make this
One of the things that stood out to me the most while watching this series was the shot composition. Absolutely incredible angles and lighting. And you did some storyboards for it?! That's incredible!
legit, the camera work and scene staging really stood out to me aswell. Its a very well-made show.
@@82Catfish It has some incredible shots and is deliriously well done in places. Gorgeous.
the lens choices felt so painterly. so awesome.
It's insane how quickly season two was confirmed... I think you might have some fans on the Netflix renewal board...
That said, a lot of this actually reminds me of Cinderella's ballroom scene. It was revolutionary because the concept of what a formal ball looked like was not concrete in people's minds; they actually hired a bunch of trained ballroom dancers, set cameras up in a real rented ballroom, filmed the whole thing, then freakin' rotoscoped all of it as animation afterward. So they had to worry about a limited number of cameras and actual cinematography, too.
its realy about views on the first 2 weeks since release. my mom watched it. my dad watched it. my peers watched it. it felt like the earth was in synchronous peace for a moment.
I want to know which Snow White scene you're referring to.
@@mariaee1862 I think they're referring to the first dance Belle/ Beast share with each other and the iconic song plays? (Original Disney version)
@@mariaee1862I think they meant Beauty and the Beast lol
It reminded me of that too! (I’m assuming you’re talking about beauty and the beast)
If you guys haven’t watched this series yet…you need to before spoilers get out there. Everything about this series is brilliant, beautiful, and extraordinary. I plan on watching season one a few more times just because of its elegance.
YES I fully agree one of the best new shows out there. I am still making my way through watching scavengers reign.
It truly is an amazing year for animation.
@@sonicsnake44that’s actually on my list to watch next. I saw the trailer and was thinking how amazing the art was.
This is a show that no one should sleep on. Incredible work to everyone who worked on this
Amazing work. Kind of insane what storyboarding has become though. Not using storyboard programs, basically drawing breakdowns, and especially having to do multiple "takes" is crazy
hell. yes. this is content is EXTREMELY helpful as film/animation student. Learning the nuances differences of animation to live action is very helpful. And then hearing about them being used together and the challenge that comes with it is wildly interesting and very useful. I hope you keep making videos like these! (btw ep 4 was my favorite! glad to see you boarded it)
When you were talking about following live action rules, and picturing a camera in 3D space, as someone who has always storyboarded with this mindset since my first attempt, its actually really interesting to realize that most people dont?
I find it difficult to do a lot of childrens shows because the camera is difficult to imagine in real life. I guess they just werent picturing a camera at all...?
It’s not necessarily better or feasible.
I defiantly do enjoy the ‘camera’ composition more but some things just work not being based in reality. Beauty of animation. Only limit is your imagination… and budget and time.
There’s a reason many kids shows or more average tv show budget animations don’t or are always able to do realistic camera work. Not only does it require more time to consider besides just composition of the art, but also is usually more difficult to achieve with good quality. Not every animation gets this luxury.
And if they don’t have time, but still achieve such quality, we’ll, bless the animators souls with their poor working conditions (e.g. chainsaw man. Looks incredible in motion with how it tries to be like a live action but animated, but was achieved with extremely poor conditions for animators, as is with other modern Mappa animes).
literally one of the best shows i‘ve ever seen. season 2 got announced around a week after i finished it, i was SO happy. 😭
I've usually grown up seeing old shows already created. But it is so exciting to see new shows released, and my favorite current animators working on it! It makes me as a viewer feel very included in your journey, keep it up!
You should be really proud of yourself. This show is absolutely amazing and personally I think it's the best animated series to come out within the last 10 years. Being associated with working on this show in any capacity is extremely impressive.
I bet the storyboards are pieces of art. I hope they get shown to the public the whole show is so beautiful
I absolutely loved blue eye samurai. I was really glad when they confirmed S2. Great work on the show, it really captured some elements of animation i haven't seen in any other animated shows. The storyline was really entertaining, especially the fight scenes.
dude, i finished the show last week and i gotta say it's one of (if not THE) most visually stunning shows i've ever watched. i've been wanting to become an animator for years, but the release of this show just turbo-boosted my motivation to further study and improve my skills. phenomenal work! i hope to someday reach your level of skill.
I loved blue eye samurai, my favourite show of the year, best thing netflix has come out with since bojack horsman, you did amazingly and every frame was breathtaking, thank you for your hard work, praying for more!
this is one of my favourite series at the moment - the art and animation, the story, the themes, all of it is so amazing. i’m so happy to hear it’s getting a second season!! your work on this series has been absolutely incredible
Everything you mentioned is such a valuable insight on the storyboarding process! Thank you so much for sharing your experience, so cool that you had the chance to work on it and it impacted your approach in such a unique way! The show has already become one of my favourites alongside with Arcane and Scavengers reign that i love dearly
I just discovered, through this video, that it got renewed for 2nd season, can't explain how happy I am with it. Great work on the show!
OMG OMG I am totally hooked to this series! Amazing to know you storyboarded this! Great great great work absolutely 👏❤❤
I watched the blue-eyed samurai and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! You did an awesome job as part of this, it was absolutely perfect down to the minimal details!
Its amazing that you worked on this show. Your work along with everyone's eles truly made a masterpiece of animation and story telling.
Can't wait for season 2.
You're probably going to wait about 3 yrs, sadly
Would be awesome to see a video on storyboarding on Photoshop and your workflow! Don't think there's much info out there about it!
I just watched it and man y'all did a great job!
I love this series. I've been following this channel for a while. It's crazy to see your work on this.
Love to see the work and know the series in more ways!
you and your team my friend are amazing. love the show and I can't wait to see the next season!
This series was INCREADIBLE... fantastic work!
Congrats on your work,, man! you guys created an amazing show
I just finished watching and it is so beautiful, I love the series wholeheartedly and hope it will continue. Amazing work!
Well done. Incredible work by you and the entire team.
its so cool you worked on this, I really loves this series
This is amazing you storyboard this!I was impressed of how good the cinematography , flow and animation was! Thank you for showing this!
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing experience, Toniko! I love Blue Eye Samurai!
I have enjoyed the series and I love seeing the behind scenes and the fact you storyboarded in it!
this is so cool! i always loved looking at storyboard thumbnail sketches even if im not a storyboard artist and i feel like the strong sense for storytelling via composition and light speaks to me directly as an artist and a person?? like it calms me to know someone sits with story and light this way. so thank you so much for sharing this! i really love this show and I hope you get compensated well and have a lot of support for fulfilling and fun projects in the present and the future
This show was amazing, started following you maybe a year ago crazy that you worked on it. Great work 🎉
Really insightful! I love this show, the animation and 'camera work' is done extremely well! must be really satisfying to see your shots come to fruition!
I've only seen the first episode, but massive respect to everyone who worked on this show. It is truly special and I love that it will get a season 2! More awesome show and more work for you guys
This show was visually stunning thank you for your contributions that meant I was able to watch it. I’m so happy about the new season x
This show was amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing your process and for your hard work brining this story to life! Incredibly impressive work, wow!!
Dude it is WICKED AWESOME worked on this show!!! Epic stuff man
This show was such a good story and the style was amazing, it's awesome to see the stuff behind the making of the scenes.
this series was absolutely amazing. I can't believe you solo produced this entire project, well done!
I LOVE THISSSSS ANIMATION I've already rewatched it, CAN'T W8 FOR S2
IM SUCH A HUGE FAN OF UR WORK AND THIS SHOW!! this video was so cool to watch!!!
I never knew Photoshop was used for boards so commonly. Would love to see more about these layer comps.
This is my kinda Anime, same as CASTLEVANIA. They arw more Realistic than your typical whiny Anime. The fist thong i notice is the lack of Noise. How quiet it is, it's like so calming, sunny, breeze. This shit was Relaxing to watch!!!
I didn't finish this on purpose so i can re-watch it 😅
I LOVED this show! Looking forward to the next season!
Awesome show! The effort in the shots really shined! The single camera angles have always made a movie or show scene way more captivating for me. i always just remember how brutal a fight scene was in jason bourne. Was done in a single take with very few angle changes, really brought you into the room and dramatized it so well.
I absolutely loved this first season and I can see your influence on the animation very clearly. You did an amazing job
YOU WERE ON THIS?? I LOVED this show and I can’t wait for s2!
Yo it’s incredible hearing you worked on it! Great work
Thank you for being a part of this show. You and others worked so well to make it come to life, and gathered a large audience that praise and recognize its hard work. So excited when s2 releases 😊❤
I binged this series last week and BOY is it good.
One of the best shows I've seen in decades.
This was a cool watch, thanks for sharing. Blue Eye Samurai is the best thing I've watched in years, so good luck on the second season!
This makes me even more excited for the ripples this show will make in animation.I have to imagine due to how unique BES was, the whole team that worked on this show has a similar story of having gained a LOT of new skills and a new perspective from having to work outside of their usual zone. Blue Eye Samurai is hands down the best series in its class right now, animated or not, because the amount of talent and dedication you & others put into it absolutely shines through in every minute.
I'll be honest I read too fast and thought you said ripples and my response was gonna be "me to"
Thank you so much for sharing!! This is really helpful and insightful, i learn a lot of things i never knew before! 🙏🙏
Good job on the series I enjoyed ever part of it great story and character development. Wish you best of luck in season 2 and upcoming projects. I how this show wins an award
Loved this series so much!
i was susprised you worke don this series, your a real pro
I would LOVE to hear more about how you storyboard in photoshop! The Laye Comp thing looks very useful!

This is one of the best adult animated shows I've seen in a really really long time
I saw the scene today and it was so cool. It feels more vivid!

I LOVE THIS SHOW ive already rewatched it like 3 times I can't wait for season 2.
Congratulations on such a wonderful show:) great video and sharing.
Jumping in to say I just finished B.E.S. a few days ago and absolutely LOVED IT.
The trailer tempted me a bit, I tried out a few other shows and left a bit dissapointed before finally trying Blue Eyed Samurai and watching most of the series in one night and being extremely tired for work the next day lol.
One of my favourites for this year, will be looking out for that next season for sure!
no wonder the show turned out so good, nice work man!
This is absolutely amazing
and this show is amazing 👍
i loive this show! subbed cuz you worked on making it ty!
I just finished this show. The scenes are framed gorgeously!
The board is very good. The serie is killer. I’d have loved to work on it too. Good job guys.
the show is amazing! a must see
Wow I love this series! So glad to know that you have worked on it! Tks for sharing your experience and things you've learned back then.
And pls talk more about this photoshop tool. I'm making a storyboard portfolio and so far I've only used photoshop, but it's being really tough and chaotic haha, I din't know about those layers settings.
Thanks for always making good videos and explanations! Congrats for your amazing work!
Omg you was a part of it!!!! Awesome man great work. Great show🎉🎉❤
i enjoy seeing the process
I would love to learn more about storyboarding in photshop... great work!
*gaaasp*
Omg you worked on this no way! That’s awesome 🤩🤩🤩
You storyboarded on this!?! Holy cow! This series is amazing! Good job! No…excellent job dude!!!
You worked really hard on this and earned that next season. I just hope you don’t get rushed to put out a second season.
The show is just bonkers good. More people need to watch it!
Episode 4 was the goat good job dude
Awesome video Toniko!
Amazing work
Ehh man, loved the show you and the team did a great job 👏 congrats
You know, sometimes I am shocked that we can even movies, games, music, tv series, whatever. There is so many moving parts in play, and it is mindblowing to think this is just *a part* of a gigantic process, everyone who worked at Blue eye samurai could no doubt have made a video essay being just as detailed as this one.
