"Nobody cares about fluid or smooth. You want great acting, you want good jokes, good stories, good characters." That single-handedly is the best message an animator can give. While looking good and smooth is nice, the facts that bring life to the animation are what matters. Genius Mr. Tartakovsky.

Fluid, smooth and stylish matters a lot too. Toei with One Piece last episodes for ex (zoro and sanji vs kaido's commanders)... movie level animation vs what they regularly do, which is mediocre animation at best and it gets boring

@@dice8372 People care more that whatever they watch has a story that they like or entertain regardless of what the animation looks like, because I've seen many animes that may have beautiful animation but their stories are boring and predictable.
@Gadget-Walkmen 11 місяців тому
@@dice8372 That's true but the story, characters, and writing is what ultimately what holds everything together! There are plenty of animated movies and shows that have PHENOMENAL animation quality that looks gorgeous but it falls apart and not really watchable because the story isn't not compelling enough. Comic books/manga are the same as well as there are manga and comics with fantastic artwork but with a underwhelming narrative and writing, it has brought down the whole experience as the visuals are not enough. Live action movies and shows are the same way as well as. Visuals are important to bring everything to life, but it's not what carries people along to know what's what.

I was told something similar by a professional artist who does comics. “Your art can honestly be mid, but what really matters is the characters, the plot, the story, etc.” don’t get me wrong, I’m sure having a basic understanding of how to draw Something nice is good, but that advice has really helped me not worry so much if my poses are a little Stiff or my background can be more detailed.

My own opinion, mind you, but I'd classify physical props as armatures - the harness for the articulated stickmen references animators keep around, or to pose action figures - or whatever is utilized for stop-motion. All the skeletons, skins, and control systems used in virtual 3D animation, I'd call that rigging. Just my own thoughts.
@kenanwallace2124 Рік тому
@@stormtempterf8058 I got a significant laugh out of that section as well. To hear someone who's been in animation for so long and seen a fair amount of success in it say that rigging is pain was just hilarious. Ironically enough I got into Animation through character rigging and love both but there have been days where rigging has me contemplating my existence.
@stormtempterf8058 Рік тому
I started my education as a generalist, learning a bit about everything, but I gravitated to rigging because it was less...artsy? There IS an art to it, but it was less about creative output and more about solving a puzzle for me. How to setup this model for the animators in the best way for movement, physics, the animator's control convenience, etc. My weakness was that my coding wasn't good enough to fill in the gaps that 3D creation tools couldn't do out of the box. I'm in operations at a company now and pretty happy, more puzzles to solve XD

"If you can imagine it and you can draw it, it exists." That's a wise quote right there.

This man is an icon. He is one of the first animators name I actually knew. And as a kid I only recognized his name because it was weird. This is my first time hearing him speak. Always expected a Russian accent. Love this guy. Will watch anything he is a part of

Dexter's Laboratory is the reason I (30 yrs later) have a Lab vs a guest-room. WIRED has to do a xx levels of difficulty on animating so that this guy can give us a glimpse of the complexity.

as someone who is about to retrain in 3d animation (after 6 years of 3d modelling ) and doing 2d animation on the side as a hobby, i find this really inspiring. Thank you for interviewing Genndy Tartkaovsky, it was legendary to watch and learn.

4:54 always surprised seeing slowbeef mentioned. Not sure what all he's been up to since Retsupurae petered out, but I wish the best for him and his family

Responding the Armature /rigging question . Armature are the base joints that drive the character. They move through the controls by the animator, and building this structure with controls and other multiple nodes that at the end drive the armature is called rigging.

I grew up watching Samurai Jack and always had a fond memory of it. Just last year, I started to watch the original seasons that aired on TV. Even though i'm now in my mid 20's (!!!), the series still holds up to this day. The show at times, explores mature themes that you wouldn't understand at a young age. It's only now that I could appreciate the deeper meaning within certain episodes, that also offer this beautiful simplicity considering the 20 minute runtime. I highly recommend it to those who saw it in younger days, to watch it once more. I think you'll appreciate it in a new way :).

The whole thing about Dee Dee and Dexter's appearance evolving with the storyboards was so interesting.

Scrolling my front page, not even subbed, didn't saw the title or channel, just saw Genndy's beautiful mug and knew this was a must to watch.

would love to see more animation/art experts on this channel!! theyre such underappreciated and misunderstood disciplines

Really sweet to see this guy get the attention he truly deserves. Love him since day one.

I love Genndy and wanna thank him for making every boring afternoon fun. His cartoons were the ones you’d think about after watching, I would pretend to have an infinite lab full of experiments. I think the stories that stick with you are the most successful. 💛🗿

Thank you for being part of my entire childhood! I enjoyed watching and re-watching Dexter's Lab and Samurai Jack all the time back then and was amazed by the SJ combat and animation style, being something new for me at the time.

This was beautiful and I loved the three blind archers episode as well. The other was where Jack was facing off as light against dark. Such control of sound really grounded me. Even at the age I was.

I just want to meet this man over lunch/dinner and talk to him candidly about the industry! He seems super fun and smart.

I loved the first two seasons of Dexter's Lab. And Genndy seems like a great guy.
@UnclePhil73 Рік тому
The ease he can draw all those expressive characters is awe inspiring

blind archer episode always hit me so hard...... glad Genndy acknowledged this.

Omelette du Fromage is still a meme and that says it all. Dexter's Lab was one of my favourite cartoons growing up!
@oumtjackawillie Рік тому
Despite never having spent much thought on Genndy, other than that instant his name flashes by before something I'm about to watch and know that it's gonna be good. The joy of seeing that it was him this time, made me not only happy but also made me realize that he 's one on a very short of people I really am a big fan of... 🥰
@EmeraldGuy Рік тому
So inspirational! This man has made a lot of childhood memories for people everywhere and ones who want to create their own cartoons in the animation industry. I can’t wait to be like him someday.
@Gresdak Рік тому
Truly a master of his craft - really cool to see someone who brought me so much joy talk about stuff that brings him the same
@Colouh Рік тому
Watching him drawing dexter and deedee brought back so much memories. My whole childhood was in those drawings.

All rise for royalty, this man is an upper echelon in animation and deserves our attention!

I haven't watched samurai jack in over a decade and as soon as he said "blind archer episode" the images came back to me vividly . GREAT episode and great imagery!

i could listen to him talk about character design all day, he's so articulate about it. I very much noticed the shift in Dexters shape over time.
