- In this video, I face off against Jake Barlett in Animation Combat, the ultimate motion graphics challenge. We each tackle a brief to create the best logo animation in 30 minutes. Along the way, we face challenges from the client including ridiculous notes, unreasonable feedback, and brutal critique.

This video has been by far the biggest production on the channel so massive thanks to Andrew and Jake for helping to make it happen! Who would you like me to face off against in upcoming episodes?
Maybe Gareso?

This was so great! Manon Louart is a great motion designer, especially with typograhpy.
with Sander
van Dijk @Regulus
Why not a woman, this time? Bee Grandinetti, Linn Fritz or Lana Simanenkova...
A legendary battle for the ages! This was a lot of fun.
It was an honor to compete under your perfectly reasonable brief :D
Andrew, I was laughing out loud when I heard the client's feedbacks 🤣 I can kinda relate to all of them :d hahaha. Great job!
The whiteboard in your background 🤣
That was extremely entertaining - great job!
I cried of laughter with every client interaction, amazing and incredible relatable
This should become a Netflix series!
You listening Netflix? XD
Only if Henry Cavill plays me....
thank you i agree😂😂😂
I can already see the title animation in my head for the the “mograph wars” 😁👍
Haha. Yes and yes. Universe make it happen. 🤓 This was very enjoyable and Ben cracks me up.
I really love how this mirrors an actual client experience, but with great humor and curveballs thrown in -- even down to the project manager telling the client "no problem!" right near the end!
Ben spent 25 of the 30 production minutes working on the morph 😂 He's definitely my spirit animal
Sharpening the axe before he made the cut ***
We need more like this Ben ❤️ you great!
Thanks Shotiko! Hopefully we can push this to 8 seasons before I get recast by a younger actor
@@BenMarriott naaahh... I won't watch it if your role get recasted in the last season
This format was excellent! Super repeatable too. Andrew did a great job coming up with realistic client scenarios too 😅
They were inspired by real life events. 😅😣
The client feedback was spot on 😂
Great concept! Looking forward to more of this in a series
I'd absolutely love to do more. What other briefs/challengers would you like to see?
@@BenMarriott i think the recipe is already in a great space (initial brief, timed challenge, mid-challenge curve balls).
Some things that could mix it up is putting in restrictions (only typography, specific styles, set colour palettes, only 'x'-type shape layers, etc.)
Also different guests help freshen up approaches etc. Maybe even tournament style progression?
Would love to discuss further if you're keen!
GAH! The stress was incredible. I imagine this is how people feel watching cooking shows. I'm sure a ton of work goes into these but YOU BOTH DID SO WELL! I would love to see more of these.
the names Ben Marriott and Jake Bartlet go so well together, idk why
I enjoyed watching this and felt the stress haha, for 30 minutes these are awesome, also idk about the client but from an artistic standpoint I personally prefer Ben's animation
Glad the stress came through the lens! Thanks for supporting the right team. Your cheque is in the mail ;)
@@BenMarriott 🤣🤣🤣
💯
@@BenMarriott I prayed during the match.. I want one too
I thought the same too. I am not a professional designer. I just do that as a hobby, but I definitely believe Ben's version is better and more aesthetically pleasing, but I guess the project wasn't to appeal for a young modern client, rather an old-style client.. which sometimes can be hard especially if you are a young designer influenced by modern styles.
Great idea, Ben! The feedback was hilarious and over-the-top and very close to reality.
Favorite client feedback:
'Not what I had in mind'
'I don't know, but I'll know it when I see it'
Precisely!
That client slides and the way it got presented was incredible
My favourite two CZcamsr's battling it out! Amazing video Ben and Jake! If you need a challenger that hasn't touched AE for about two years to give you a chance Ben, you know who to come to. 😂
Haha, thanks Hayley! hopefully we get greenlit for a full season :D
@@BenMarriott Do it!
i challenge you ben marriott (unless you’re scared)
OMG Ben, loving this content! Motion designers are tired of watching the same old motion design tutorials, we need more content like this.
The next opponent could be Joey from the School of Motion or Andrew Kramer from Video Copilot just a thought or ;)
Looking forward to more content like this :)
I definitely agree...! More of this would be amazing!!!
Ben can also challenge Raz Gadhiya for his next video!
yeah I agree as well
@@parthdake6768 agreed! Love his work! His movie nothing was soooo good!
this is the best thing I've seen on YT so far😅
eager to see more!!
This is gold! Great competition and loved all the hilarious client feedback/wishes
Omg, please please please make this a series!! Amazing job to everyone involved!
What an incredible idea, you two (three) are brilliant.
Thank you for being you and your service throughout these years.
Exciting challenge 😊. I learnt a great deal here with the effects used and thinking ability.
I'll be anticipating the next challenge 😁❤️.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! It pushed my thinking to it's limits not having days to think of ideas and nights to sleep on it.
The UPSET. Well done you two, those were some speedy keyframes!
Loved watching this! Please make more of these :)
Man, you're rocks! Thank You for your course !!! I've learned so much!!!
Looking forward to seeing more of these videos!
such pleasure. lot of fun. thanks, guys
Such a great video and a great battle, more intense than Achilles vs Hector scene in Troy, we want more of this ❤
I need more of these content! I enjoyed it so much it's like watching a cooking show but for motion designers. Brilliant!
This was so so good!
That forgetting to the trim your work area had me in stitches 😂 happens all the time
Please make more of these! So good!
Definitely need more of these!
I think is amazing the fact you took time to add gradient shadows inside the pit you created to make it look deep. Amazing work both you guys! (You and Jake are absolutely essential people in teaching animation)
Greetings from Brazil!
I really love seeing motion graphic designers compete, it motivates me so much
This video was awesome! It was cool watching how you both approach the design & animation process differently. Great work all around!
That was so much fun! And what an amazing job both Jake and Ben have done with such a small amount of time 😯
THIS IS FU**ING AWESOME! I love how involved everyone in this video is. Treat to watch!
love you guys so much! i've learn so much from both of you over the years, great challenge, hope to see more challenges like this in the future!
I had a huge smile on my face the entire time during this. really loved it! I'm sure it was a ton of work, hope you can do more!
this is so fun to watch, i think i'll need more like this in the future
Fantastic video! I believe you have a hit series here for both of your channels.
I can't wait for more, this video was the best surprise! Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into your content. Currently working through MMD :)
This is so good and funny!!! Thank you for putting this together what a great concept and great team to start off! entertaining and insightful :) I am looking forward to the next episodes!
It was so funny to watch! Thank you, wanna ser more of this kind of challenges!
I enjoyed watching it so much! Great content and fantastic post-production. That was so intriguing, haha. Cheers!
This is so fun to watch amazing people, not only fun watching, but it makes us understand how you guys think while making something.
This was such an awesome video! Really appreciate all the effort in here Ben! Great to see the the whole process
This is SUCH a damn good idea for a reality show. The way it's spliced together, the random changes, ugh, someone needs to pick this idea up.
Best motion designers in the field, love u both❤❤
Now that's some love! thanks Mohamed :D
So fun to watch ! More of these contests please
Interesting!
It was a fun activity after a lot of serious tutorials,
I would be so excited and happy to see you two together again!
and also it would be so nice if you could show more of your working process rather than just the result of your work, in order for us to learn more ,not just entertain,
Thanks!
I had so much fun and you were awesome guys! Very cool and I can't wait to see what you will do next! THX!
Following, loving and thanking constantly both of you for the real solutions to everyday work you give on tips and workarounds, this Challenge not only got me glued with intrigue and fun, but reminded me the constant crap we Motion Designers face with clients every day. And, Oh boy...The Rural and turquoise made me laugh and screech at the same time. Thanks a lot!
Woow!!! This is a great concept for a TV show. Congratulations for the video!!! I want to see more like this
This was a lot of fun to watch! and very insightful, Learned a bunch. Thanks!
Loved the video! ❤ Sometimes the deadline doesn't allow us to make mind-blowing stuff, so it was nice seeing two pros dealing with this situation. I'd be great to see you go against ECAbrams in the future.
This was so much fun to watch. I was really excited to see all of the elements come together after seeing you create the sets on Instagram!
This is how challenging some clients can be. I love this. Thanks for sharing.
This was a really fun video to watch, loved the energy. Love to see more video like this. Suggestion - a short explainer for the next 😅 if possible but love it all .
More of this! spectacular!
More of this great loved it!
Designers usually don't like working under pressure，but this kind of game is really a show that people like to watch
Jake & Ben two best motion designer of all time. You guys are amazing.. Your CZcams videos, courses, works are super creative! Keep going. 💯🔥
We need more of this! Very inspiring and love to see how you guys pull it off in such a short time.
Grats Jake and Ben! A solid 10/10 👏🏻
This was an epic battle. I loved it! 🤩
I want to see more videos like this.😁
This is the best! More of that.
Comedy, action, suspense all in one package!
I never expected to see you both competing!
I was so stressed to see you both trying to do an animation in 30 minutes. I did sweat badly! This video is a real example of even the best animator has struggled with a brief like that. Looking at your works, I always thought that with your magnificent creativity, animation skills, tools, and experience, you guys wouldn't have the issue of being that frustrated. Still, you felt it, telling me to myself: man, even the masters, have those issues.
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!
FIV: I liked both ideas ;-)
This was awesome, It reminded me a lot of the clients I had to deal with when I used to work at the agency, only this time was fun to watch
This was amazing. I’d watch so many episodes of this.
Loved it♥ Please make more of this :)
I really love this sort of content! So much fun and remind me a lot of the common situations we are facing in the work in a very interesting way. Thanks you guys
Please, more of that. Wonderful video idea. A competition against James Curren would be the highlight of my life.
amazing video, the CC Light Sweep part was hilarious ahaha
That's so cool you came up with this idea! I follow and admire you both :)
Hey Ben. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this, very cool format! Even watching this, we learned something of yours and Jake's process. The client feedback made me chuckle, all too familiar.
My suggestions for your next battle opponents are: JR Canest (Jorge Rolando Candeo Estrada) from Ordinary Folk or ECAbrams
What a great video. You summarize the real working process brilliantly in a relatively short video.
This is one of the definitely more cool content for after effects user, is incredible. Love it so much!!!
Yooo.. this was dope... We need more of these!!!! Shows the reality of situations!! Can't wait to see who's next!... Maybe not just after affects... If it's a challenge on motion graphics.. why not reaching out the community of davinci resolve.. epic!!!
OMG, this is amazing! Jake and you have taught me so much through the years.
You should start an Ultimate Motion Designer tournament with all the lots from SOM and all the heavyweights from Skillshare and CZcams.
Mid way through the tournament you have to team up to win a challenge against Aaron Blaise or the Bancroft brothers.
do more of this!! this is amazing
Man I stumbled on your channel not long now and I’ve been glued man. I’m a very very new guy in the field and to simulate the work life and clients responses and all that and thought processes. This is so good man. Thanks so much🥺
Wow!!..Excellent video!! .. the interaction with the client is so real 😂 .. you are the best Ben!!
This was great, you both did incredible for the short turnaround.
This was incredibly fun to watch! I would love to see the next one against Hayley from Motion Hatch :D
Seeing how creative blocks are easily managed by simply thinking outside the problem. Watching random pictures and video could give you the solutions to the problems. Thanks Ben for this video. I love it.
What a cool video concept! Id love to see more like this in the future!
This video has actually made me feel pretty good about how quickly I work from concept to end render.
Nice content.
Oh guys, that was so funny and I felt a kind of relief. It was great to see that the masters of motion go through the same problems with client requires, struggle moments and rush time. Great content, cheers!
this is amazing, i laugh so hard in the client feedback. loved this style of video, inspiring and entertaining. thanks ben!
Loved this! It's like watching my two favourite school teachers duke it out for our entertainment! Dioramas looked amazing too :D I think my favourite parts were watching Ben's reaction to the first logo Andrew put up and then the reaction to not trimming the work area for the final render. Can relate SO hard 😂
This was ridiculously fun! I would pay good money to keep a "motion battle series" such as this going. Imagine the names that could come thru and do this with you! 😍 What a refreshing approach to motion education content in general!
So long watching and loving you both and now this video, I love it madly! I owe so much to you both!!!!
Thanks so much for watching, and thanks even more for loving! (hate-watching is also acceptable, but not preferred.)
@@BenMarriott I've been loving and watching you and Jake for a long time...probably 4 years. And you both have shown me how to do and create a lot!
My anxiety went up at every absurd client feedback 🥶
The mashup we never knew we needed! Great video ♥️
Great video, I really enjoy this type of content!
Two of my favorite channels. Worlds are colliding!
This was so fun to watch! You and Jake did great despite the short time given. Please make more of these! 😁
This was actually very fun to watch, i hope you keep making new episodes because it chabge for me the way i enjoy watching CZcams videos.
the authentic stress reaction at the beginning with the little logo prank informs me that this was very much not scripted. Awesome content ❤
