Jazza: “I pushed myself beyond my limits”. Rob: 🤕

We all must choose our battles wisely. Having one with Jazza’s drawing should not be one of them.

Rob, in the morning of the filming day, probably: yay, can't wait for a new fun day of work and not getting carpal tunnel, I wonder what we're gonna be doing today 🙂🙂

Ah. Nostalgia. I hope the first person I saw making this concept grew up and makes good money now. Remember the old animator vs animation videos? Like 2005? That was made in freaking flash 8. And they made a flash game

This got strong "Animation vs. Animator"-vibes and I'm here for it lol

I hope Rob got a raise for sitting there painstakingly in the same position

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the sheer endurance Rob had? Sitting with his hand on a whiteboard for, like, ten hours

Plan: The stickman grabs the marker and draws a door that gives him and the animation closure Jazza: Let's just have him die because blood is fun

I love how the camera just randomly zooms into Rob's face and he looks so done every.single.time

I feel way worse for Rob, he’s doing all this with his boss.

As someone who did stop-motion animation for four years, I resonate with this whole video My biggest reason for quitting stop-motion was that nothing _ever_ goes as planned. I can live with the tedium of small precise motions, I can live with accidentally bumping into the camera, I can even live with not being able to alter frames afterwards. But the thing I _cannot_ live with is the myriads of tiny complications which eventually snowball into "the entire latter half of this scene needs to be rewritten to get it to work", because nine times out of ten whatever I come up with at that point was worse than what I'd initially planned.

Jazza: A hexagon has 8 sides, right? Also Jazza: A door is actually a square 😂

Jazza: Rob's arm is dead! Rob: *stares nervously at camera*

I feel bad for Rob. He must be super exhausted. Lol. But his hand is a great actor, he should be proud! Hopefully he got the rest he deserves. 😅

Rob: join jazza studios, they said. They’ll pay you for doing what you love, they said. His hand: *imma end this man’s whole career* 😂😂😭😂

In 2010 in my senior computer class we had to do a project with film. So I decided to do a stop motion with the white board at the front of the class. I tied a dry erase marker to two fishing strings with an adjustment height string and slowly moved the marker around while tapping twice on the cameras record button and drew lines at a up close of what it was drawing. And at the end of the video it zooms out to the marker spelling The End. My computer teacher still uses that video to teach his class today.

I've always had big respect for stop motion animators. I think I first learned how it was done as a kid and I remember just being blown away by the amount of work this takes. Of course now you have predictive programming that cuts out a lot of the work but wow!

The narrative went from "they can make friends!" to "everyone dies"

Have you ever considered doing an animation where with every frame the animation gets more detailed? For example: you start with a stick figure an at the end there is something really epic.

The fact he came back the next day to actually enjoy the animation is really relatable to be honest. After I’ve animated something that took a long time, I always feel like I can appreciate it more after I haven’t been staring at it for the past 3 hours.

I wasn't expecting a casual Ainsley voice popping in like that- you spooked me a lil bit. Really cool video- Rob was a great hand model and the animation was super fun!

Stop animation is underrated the amount of work that went into this for just a few glorious seconds of animation

I love the blending of real and drawn. I might have to try something like this! And well done to Rob…such a great arm model!

Well done boys. Rob, I am quite sure he could have ordered a prosthetic arm, obviously your company was most enjoyed.

I can't remember the last time I saw a Jazza video that was just inspiration and not a sales pitch for something.

Rob: The prettiest model out there

Animation has always seemed super insane to me on a creative level because you're not just working with space, you're working with time and have to be consistently aware of it's passing on almost a meta level of awareness. Just so many things to juggle artistically.

Everyone else: That stop motion animation is amazing! Animator vs animation awesome! Me: What equation did Jazza use? Does he know that the answer is just V0W⁶?

It's great to see that you seem to be enjoying making stuff again, not just for the sake of making them ☺️

I’m getting flashbacks to just binging Alan’s “stickmen vs. [BLANK]” all the time.

I have litterally made it a goal for me to be better at stop motion this year ,and this method with the board looks even better than using playdoe I love it😍

Props to Rob!! It was all worth it mate, for that sloppy high five at the end xD

34 year old me been transported back to being a teenagers watching stick fight animation on newgrounds and then sitting there making my own on ms paint with like 300 + pages , copy, paste, save new lol Great vid Jazza !

Great to see jazza doing more stop motion. I've been a stop motion animator for the last 10 years and the frustration I see here is the same I feel most days haha but as ever you make something phenomenal

Can we appreciate how jazza gets straight into the video 😊

The animation turned out so great! Love this video and was really fun to see the vlog too. I know Jazza did all the drawing but Rob, hand model extraordinaire, is the star of this one.

I am such a fan of the whole stick figure animation. This video was very satisfying to watch. Thanks for you and your for putting in quality time and effort.🙂

That animation was just perfection. It was so short and "sweet", it made me laugh 😁

Jazza is the only person I know that really haven't lost his inner kid, it is so cute to see him hype when he try something new and it ends to be what he wanted 🤗

Animator VS animation style, that's really nice!

You're telling a story with that and it's not always going the way you planned. Now you know what a writer goes through when a character starts to change the story. You always have to remember the personality of the character and sometimes event's that you put in the story cause you to go outside that and it's a whole rethink and edit. The end product is so worth it because even with the frustration, you do it because you love it. 😁👋💖

Admit it, rob is the real hero here. THANK YOUUUU ROBBB!!! ✨✨✨

I'm sure others have mentioned Alan Becker, but this reminded me of him. A collab between you two would be epic someday =) Also, poor Rob! I'm sure that day seemed to last forever to him.

another version, with a realtime hand, and the stickfig after, means you can do alot more, have the hand out of frame many times so you can add and subtract scenes, and different attacks on each other.

They all seems to be growing beards, first jazza, then Rob, now Dave. Waiting for Jen to start growing one now..

i would LOVE to see you take on sculpting and painting an anime figure. i fully believe you could achieve results as amazing as some of the magic cube figures. i.e. the shinobu, mitsuri, and rengoku figures.

I absolutely loved the part when the hand went "ah-ha!" and even had an animated exclamation point. It was so funny lol

Not only do I LOVE your art and creativity, but especially your spirit and never-failing ability to make me smile/laugh as I watch each video!

12:54 the animation! You’re welcome ☺️

I don't know if Rob was hamming it up for "the bit" or what but I'm actually concerned about him. Be careful with your employees and what you ask of them, Jazza! It's hard to say no to your boss, you know?

More Rob is always makes for a good video! Very cool. Thank you for the video and your crew for all they're hard work!

Keep up the great work I have been watching you for three years now and now I have been inspired and started my own thanks to you jazza! :)

Can we get some props and Fs in the chat for Rob’s circulation?

1. Fricken love ya Jazza! 🤩🎨 2. A good thing I learned to do for Animations is to make a flip book because it's technically the same thing just on paper. That way you can see how your scenes look already, redo what you drew on the paper onto the screen, and you can see what needs to be fixed in between. But at least it helps for beginners! 😁😁😁

You spend so much time and effort in your videos that I can't help but wait for more. Love your work Jazza!!

I love your art and animation skills and I’ve been here since the magic pad

This was so fun to watch

Alan Becker did the same thing and I love this type of content

The final result is incredible! Well done!

Jazza: “for this animation we are going to need a human hand 🤚 but not my hand bc I’m animating” 😂 Hand model: I can’t feel my hand 🤚

Love your fun and creative videos! They are always so original! Hope I can bring some of that to my channel one day! So inspiring 💕

man, Jazza, I'm happy for you that you got the means to do stuff like this right now feel proud dude, you earned it

After all the work in the animation, both parties lost, but what a way to go out! R.I.P Rob's arm and hand. Gone, but never forgotten

The animation is revealed at 12:54 for those that don’t have the time to watch his content at the moment.

This reminds me of Animator vs Animation ❤️ amazing throwback

This reminds me of my second attempt with the Sketch Collab event. I was trying to do a ballerina animation but stopped part way thru to experiment with another animation idea. Of course all that hard work was trashed when my original frames got erased and was jumbled with the frames from the experiment. Had to do a new animation from scratch (on the day it was due) and barely got it done. A fascinating watch that brought back lots of memories.

Just the enthusiasm by Jazz is alone enough to enjoy these videos. And then the creativity kicks in. Inspiring, awesome!!

Hi!! I'm so excited I'm so early!! You're my favourite artist🤠

Did Rob know what he was getting into? Great animation!

Guy needs more credit for his videos. Content is amazing, deserves as much clout as other artist UKpostsrs.

I can't express how your videos bring me joy and inspire me as an artist too.

Bruh I hate these freaking ads keeping from watching JAZZAS VIDEOS

Animation starts 12:55

I absolutely loved this! The story concept is so cute and I love the splat at the end lol! This was so fun to watch, keep up the great work guys :D ...RIP Rob's arm

There was a website I use to love to death that had stickman games and animations. I’d spend hours laughing with my brother and watching them, fascinated by the way it worked. This video reminded me of how much I love this style, so thanks Jazza for helping me remember the things I had forgotten :)

Hey Jazza I have an interesting proposition for you: I was goin through some old toys and found a bunch of small army men. They are bad quality and most of their weapons are flimsy or broken (also my dog got a hold of some of them so some have less limbs). Obviously I didn’t care for them anymore but I didn’t want to create a bunch of waste by throwing them away so i thought about selling them. I then realized nobody’s gonna want these crappy things. I thought for a while and some how you crossed my mind this is a weird offer I know buuuuuut do you want them. I was thinking you could fix them up and give them a nice paint job and maybe make a zombie-military diorama with them. I would’ve done this myself but I lack artistic ability. It’s okay if you don’t cause this is very random idk why I thought you would want these crappy army men but anyways......uhhh think about it..........maybe sorry for making this such a long comment. Also I love your videos byeeeeeeee

bro thats a sus zenbook

Jazza with stopmotion: it's so fun 😊 Jazza with animation: It's so TEDIOUS 👹

The animation is so satisfying and those dynamic actions are soo good.❤️ There will be always change of plans in story board while progressing, thats true 😅, new ideas will comes to mind frequently...

I have to say this video is.. somewhat in reverse from what I would like 🙂 If you stated "ok today we will do stopmotion animation or something, here is the result and then - we did it this way. I would enjoy it several times more, than to see the process, spoil whole "story" and then see it again :-)

Literally 99% won't see this, but i hope you and your family have a wonderful life .❤🍀

This reminds me of Alan Becker and I love it. Great job and so much effort was put into this kudos to you! 👏

That turned out so good! I hope Rob's arm recovered.

Spoiler in the title ?!

Claim your first 10 minutes ticket (here)

Just finished a jazza vid, love that there's a new one now!

Can we just appreciate the sound that jazza made 10:41

This has so much potential, but I think this is more o a dabble than a dive. I would love to see more

OMG his quality just keeeps getting better. I just cant imagine where this will end up !!!

Currently going through some tough times man so I be been drawing/painting like crazy my mind just goes free + Jazza’s attitude is actually helping even if it’s a little and I just wanna say thank you for that :,)

That animation is awesome and deserves it's own video!

Jazza’s and team have really been stepping up on the variety of videos! 👏

The AAH at the end is just perfect 🤩

ive been wanting this redone for literally 10 years

Favorite video so far. I had to watch it twice. Congrats on the ten year anniversary.

Omg that was amazing! I had no idea what goes into something like this. It's really cool.

Jazza and team, this is INCREDIBLE! Absolutely love it!

Turned out really nice! Nice nod to those Animator vs Animation cartoons on Newgrounds from back in the day.

Imagine doing this left handed 😳 it was so awesome watching this process! I have always wondered how people made these videos what patience amongst the team 👏
