- In this video I take reference from a beautiful location in my local area and turn it into an animated scene. I show you the process of how I paint a background in Photoshop and then add animated elements on top.
Liked what you saw and feel like supporting the channel?

I love the integration of many techniques to make this project feasible for one artist. Just learning that many software alone is such an amazing feat!
Wow...I've painted a lot of canvases and other substrates in my decades, but watching animation being created makes me want to do this now!
How cool!
Woow, this is actually one of the best animation videos i ever saw… you’re so talented
So cool to see you mixing and trying new techniques even within your own project. Super inspiring stuff to me in making my own short film project
Thanks a lot! Glad to hear that!
Really happy to see u posting more actively again Olof! Ur work really inspires me ⭐
Makes me happy to hear!
This is genius ...the amount of work you put in one of these....is insane...Well done
The painted rendering effect of the scene is great, good work bro!!
Probably the coolest thing I saw today ❤
this is so beautiful, bringing your characters and environement to life is a dream
You’re beyond levels 🤯! Please make a short film about hiking with the these beautiful landscapes ✨
It's such a lovley surprise to see a new upload from ya again Olof. Great work on this fun project of animating the river. loved the color pallet chosen also loved the animating of the characters. really well done and smoothly to.
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it!

Hello. Can we have you two seconds. Thank you.
Beautiful work Olof!!
Cheers!!
Amazing, as always
Lovely work. Really looking forward to the finished piece now. 🙂
This inspired me to work on an animation and learn more
It is just unreal
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Love how this animation of the river is so simple.
Do you have a rough timeframe of when you might finish this mountain climbing animation project?
Thanks a lot! Haha no I really dont have a deadline for it. So I use it as my creative outlet to explore animation ideas. :)
@@OlofStorm yeh no worries :)
Not overworkin should be my mantra, its so difficult to keep things simple!
I agree 👍
wow Awesome !!! Masha Allah❣
you do such a good job!!
Wow really nice. Love how you use different tools to your advantage. 👍
I think adding just a few droplets and splashes in the whitewater the eyes can follow through an arc could give nice results and sell that motion even more. It could give some order to the chaos and slow done the pace a little. But just a thought.
Great work 👌
smooth process ❤
omg.. this is awesome..
You are the best animator on TH-cam ❤
Wow what a compliment! Thanks!
Absolutely wonderful!
Amazing truly enjoyed your video ❤❤❤
Mindblowing.
This is fire homie. Big motivation.
Thank you brother,
That was really helpful, always learning something new.🤗
Wonderful wonderful process, thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Always awesome! thank you again Olof. Camera projection/ mapping is what I don't understand since I follow you.
Thanks! Yeah it can be tricky, but its basically a way to get some 3d movement out of a flat image.
Thank you. Beautiful scene.

I enjoyed this,
I stop everything im doing when u upload 😊

This style reminds me of Summit of the Gods. Very unique and engaging.
Oh thanks! Love that film!
@@OlofStorm No problem! I loved that movie too!
Absolutely beautiful.
Looks good
just fantastic like always
Thanks a lot!
Would love if you could do a video about your painting workflow.
I have plenty of Videos covering that on my channel here 👍
you are an inspiration, thanks for amazing videos
Thanks a lot!
Great, good job bro...
Pure art
😍🙏🙏
Wonderful
nice video olof storm. i followed you
Amazing!!!!!!
Wow
What software you use...illustrator+Cinema 4d
❤❤
This is incredible
I need to subscribe to your Patreon
Cheers!
You are amazingly talented brother. Do you have a link for the tablet/screen you are using with stand?
very good work
Very Nice✨
Which laptop do u use bro😮??????
Amazing talent 🌟 u have
Please show us how to model and rig and animate character in cinema 4d that looks like a 2d character
As mentioned in the video I have videos on my Patreon about just that 👍
Awesome
amazing
what is the pen display you are using? great work and thanks!
What arm do you use for your drawing screen? can you lower the screen so it hangs off the edge of the desk? Love your videos! Over-the-shoulder stuff always seems so inviting. That water is really satisfying :D
Thanks I am glad you like the over the shoulder footage. I prefer it over screen recordings.
I have the Wacom flex arm for my 24 inch Cintiq. I think it depends on your set-up and desk, but mine doesn't go lower than my table, but I dont want to have it flat down for neck posture. Better having it face me at an angle instead.
always impressed by how clearly you think through this stuff. What tool are you using in C4D to stretch and pull that water pattern?
Thanks! Its the magnet tool
@@OlofStorm It's the exact tool i need right now. Didn't know it existed. thank you so much
Thank you very much
😍😍😍
Thank you sir 🙏
Thank you so much!
bravo! thank you very much
Nice ❤😂❤😂🎉
I wish to know your thoughts on AI. Because I'm afraid. I am worried about employment in this field.
Ai won't do shit, man dnt worry
@@EZETAROaroMUSASHIlmao right? plus AI needs to be set up by us in order for it to do what it needs to do ion think about AI one bit 💯
Where can I find the second water animation example of your past work? I love that one in particular. Is there a video breakdown on it? (05:10)
Hey! Thanks!
Yes here is that video

@@OlofStorm lovely! Thank you
wow
What is the configuration of your computer, and what is the name, model and price of this monitor? It would be helpful if you told me.
Thanku ❤😊
Hi Olof, how did you set the pen to have barrel rotation? As far as I can tell, you are not using Art pen... I am considering getting the new ipad and apple pencil pro for the barrel rotation. Wish my CIntiq have that feature..
ive always wondered. Why photoshop and not something like opentoonz or clip studio paint?
Which brushes do you use in Photoshop
hello sir, I want to ask how to make animations such as Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon and Waner Bros, using manual or digital techniques? I don't know how to make it in detail the process
ooh yeah, i cant even draw a single line properly here
Same 😅
But I can try it a little bit
Uss
Where do we get your brush sets??
Beautiful job, as always.
Cheers!!
When this showed up in the feed, I thought this was going to be another "tutorial" where the person is just converting video to a hand drawn look with A.I. at first. So glad it's not!
what software do you use?
Is there any course from you for detailed animation lessons? I would love to learn from you
I have a lot of in depth videos on my Patreon page as well as all these videos I have here on my TH-cam channel.
I saw her a high technique for 2d animation
what is your 3d softwere
I use cinema 4d
@@OlofStorm ok
@@OlofStorm thank you very much
Which device?
"I joined Patreon solely to see your work XD. Is there a course available to learn how to draw?"
Thanks a lot! Great to hear!!
Please the software that you use for the animation

Very nice video but your forget the little part of water in the background
does anyone know what brush he is using at 1:27 or any ideas how to replicate it with settings in photoshop when creating custom brushes

@@OlofStorm thank you sir, I appreciate the reply and that is a really good price for the bundle
Which software please?🙏🏾
Blender for 3d and photoshop for background
which software ?

@@LTartworkx Thank You So Much Bro 🙏
The camera movement looks like some one is spying to them. May be if you make it slower it will looks more cool
You sounds like Cristiano Ronaldo❤
Now that you've developed your art style with enough content to train your own Ai model, do you ever consider making a scene with something like Sora?
Duuuuuuuuuude.
How to use AI to do it?
