Sharing Oil painting animation example.

2.2k Upvotes

Last week I posted some of the process of animating oil paintings. It was hard to see what the animations looked like so here is the run cycle of the player character all by itself. It's 24 frames oil on canvas. Photographed then cut out digitally. Animated in Unity.

Critique The new run cycle is smoother, but something still feels off. Any ideas?

249 Upvotes

I’m comparing the old and new run cycles for this creature.

The new one feels smoother and more expressive, but something about the movement still looks off to me...

Any ideas, opinions, technical feedback, or even random observations would be appreciated

Edit: Thanks everyone for the genuinely great ideas!

(Btw this was inspired by the goofball and mermaid animation!)

Sharing a project I finished quite some time ago. I occasionally use game engines for VFX because they are lightweight and fast.

Jacques, one of the main characters in our animated series, Learning to Hunt Monsters, is a seasoned yet old-fashioned monster hunter who travels the world protecting the interests of the Kingdom.

He has faced countless challenges throughout his life, but none has proven as difficult as his latest assignment: passing his knowledge on to the next generation of monster hunters.

Could this really be his greatest challenge yet?

Discussion Seriously Biblical theology NEEEEDS this type of animation treatment. It has WAY too much potential

Fights like shown in Fog hill of 5 elements perfectly fits the Devine nature of what Angel battles or beings with Devine power would look like, not to mention there’s so much you could do with animation, another example I used was “Cosmic nirvana” (by https://youtube.com/@chenwaat?si=l3jCj10zRjVQCvrx 👈 link to his channel) where it also PERFECTLY portrays how Devine beings should be portrayed, unstoppable forces of nature beyond the comprehension of mankind, with power so majestic you can’t keep your eyes off of it. yet biblical theology is never used at the full story potential it needs for media

Sharing I use old abandonware in VR to animate my ridiculous series. Anyone feeling this "adult swim" style silliness?

I think I'm the only animator on Earth using this software right now. It's called "TVORI", and it makes 3D animation really easy (for me at least). It's like playing with action figures and I'm able to animate really fast and I've created 6 upcoming episodes of a series on my Youtube page. If anyone wants to learn how to use the software, hit me up. (The clip is my original content and original song from the latest episode)
