    In three years, I went from having absolutely no experience in 3D Animation to working at DreamWorks Animation Studios teaching just about all of the 3D software used to make movies! After 2 years there, I left to try freelance / independent content creation on CZcams for awhile, before I head back to Feature Film!
    This is my journey- the entire process from when I decided I wanted to be an animator until I eventually get there, and everything along the way that will make it possible.
    Whether you're chasing a similar dream, or just interested to see where mine takes me, subscribe to follow along with the incredible journey that it takes to become an animator!
    You will not be disappointed.

      Sir Wade Neistadt all tips was great and true. For me , Floyd Norman and Tim Ingersoll tips are favorite. But when I saw Michal Makarewicz, I waited advice from him too). So this is very good video for another artists. Thank you for this video!!

      I never saw an animator put so much reality in the body language of a character than james baxter. But you gonna be talking about character animator I thing his over all guideline will be enough :) I think he deserves for an interview more than anybody else because you interview so many people and so many talented people but nothing was genuine like James Baxter :')

    1) Poses
    2) Patient - 2:58 (explore around before settling)
    3) Don't Give up - 3:40
    4) Always ask "why" before making a shot - 3:41 (is it entertaining / does it have a set-up/payoff)
    5) Don't be afraid to show your work to people
    6) Entertain us and show work to people to get reaction and feedback
    7) Cherish all your life experience

    This is incredible! I liked Pierre Perifel and Shawn Kelly's tips the most. I think everyone rushes to be a Dreamworks or Pixar animator but there is so much more out there in the world to explore. And by failing on animation shots , it helps you improve so much and to eventually reach that high end level or goal that you want to reach.
    Great Video Wade. I hope to be at CTN next year as I'm moving to Canada from the UK soon so i'll be a bit closer :)

But I really dont want that to stop me. Thank you Sir Wade for posting this!

    There is no such thing more incredible :') than watching James Baxter in this video, he is an Animator who worked on Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron we can learn a lot from him by simply watching the spirit animation but it will be more like a dream come true when you seek his character animation tips because in this regard no one can be compared to him.

      as a muslim I worship only my God, RIGHT!!! and I no need to consider your crippled advice to look up 9 old men because the thing I was looking for I found in James Baxter. One more thing to keep in mind is that animations is also about weight shifting, balancing, body language and squash and stretch.

    • @CookieFridays
      @CookieFridays Před 5 lety +1

      @Keep Rocking! I assure you that they must've squashed the stretched. Maybe not in a rubbery, elastic way, but a mechanical "up and down" for sure, which is squash and stretch.
