Description Just a little over 4 hours of animation work done for this one.

Here's the full recorded livestream of my animation session for those who are curious. It should be done processing within the hour of publishing this.

The lips were synced to when Applejack actually said "Say what?" in S5E1 The Cutie Map Part 1 at 24 fps.

That little emphasis head jerk on the "what" takes this from great to absolutely amazing. That level of attention to detail in all your animations is absolutely astounding. Keep up the good work - there's a bright future for you in animation if you pursue it.

Just a question; how do you make cartoon eyes like that?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheRealDJTHED In reply to Kenilem [2017-08-10 08:27:26 +0000 UTC]

I won't go in too much detail, but essentially I'm just using perfect spheres for the eyes (which also have several texture layers that can be animated independently), but they are flattened to fit in the face of the model using lattices. Lattices allow the sphere to still rotate while still being properly flattened in the appropriate axis.. if you get what I mean.

Wow, the little details are amazing! You even added bits like the pupil changing size! Mind telling me how you went about creating the eyes for this model?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheRealDJTHED In reply to Wynnchi [2017-05-15 19:55:24 +0000 UTC]

The eyes are just UV Sphere being flattened by lattices. The iris, pupil, and eye shines have their own separate animate-able texture layer.

Wynnchi In reply to TheRealDJTHED [2017-05-16 21:23:25 +0000 UTC]

Whoa, sounds pretty cool. Do you think you could tell me how you made them, or do a quick video? I've been trying to make my own non-circular eye rigs for a while now without much success. Feel free to decline though, I'd understand.

I can do everything else besides UV mostly, but the eyes are the one thing I have the most trouble with haha

Maybe I can at some point way later in the future. It'll be too much of a hassle to explain how I did it right now.

You don't happen to know of any resources you can point us to do you? Anything that helped you learn to figure the eyes out?

TheRealDJTHED In reply to PostPony [2017-05-20 05:06:12 +0000 UTC]

The only resource I used when making this model was screenshots from the show itself, as well as just stuff I know from experience and from intuition.

PostPony In reply to TheRealDJTHED [2017-06-17 03:12:58 +0000 UTC]

I was referring how you learned to do the eyes. Doesn't matter. I've got a subscription with cgcookie.com now. They teach blender and other things extremely well as far as I've seen and I've found an eye tutorial about making a super proper eye rig and it is looking really good so far. There are tons of things they teach and I recommend it to anyone out there who wants to learn more blender stuff.

Now if you will just kindly donate the rest of your life to converting an entire episode.

Seriously though, I'm surprised it didn't take you longer as the animation is so good you can tell what she is saying even without the caption.Β  Most actual movies aren't even that accurate.
