little animation short I made with Blender and other tools. Went for a low poly/cel shaded look. Would like to develop a game this year similar style.



Curious how this was animated. Did you do some kind of mocap?

As for me still a noob an no plans to animate. Just poking at custom avatars.

Yeah mostly mo cap, I have the Rokoko smart suit pro 2. Some of the more advanced stuff like the triple kick in the air and the spinning break dance esq beheading (ouch 😳), moves that I can’t do, I will bash together video clips for reference then hand animate. I will research moves from YouTube for eg, then blend them together in after effects then use them for reference. Works pretty well.

I ain’t no expert but I actually enjoy hand animating cool action, generic stuff like running, walking, basic fight stuff, I’ll mo cap as so much faster, then stuff that’s really anime style OTT action, I’ll hand animate.

Have you ever thought of becoming a vtuber, like code miko?
nah ain’t got the time lol plus it’s a lot of luck to ‘make it’ on youtube I think. I have seen some amazing videos and channels with hardly any views then on the other hand, I’ve seen some rubbish with millions of views so it seems a little fishy to me.

Maybe shorts, like for TikTok or YouTube, maybe have your PA make them.
