How to create your own animated series

In this video we show an exclusive behind the scenes tour of our animated series 'The Thingshow'. We show how we're using AI-tools like Midjourney, Elevenlabs and Chat GPT but also more traditional software like Photoshop, Premiere Pro and Character animator.
Please enjoy and if you have additional comments please add them in the comments.

I made this video to show how much/little AI helps with making The Thingshow. You'll see there's still a lot of hard work and love behind this channel.
Nobody is interested in 100% AI-generated videos for the same reason nobody cares about two chess computers competing against each other.
This video is meant to inspire people to realize their creative ideas and point them to the tools that can bring those ideas to life.

[@JadziaiGrzechu]

I fully agree with you. The entire character animation process is the most difficult and takes a lot of time. It takes us 30-35 hours to prepare one episode. Generating graphics using AI is the easiest, but it's just an addition. And the most important thing is the script. Without it, even the best graphics and animation mean nothing. We wish you good luck - Jaga & Greg

Oh thank u ❤️🙌🏻

[@cashoyboy]

a good show starts with real artists

[@YoreHistory]

I agree and that is why artists should be using these tools for productivity/creativity gains where applicable. These tools can really benefit and they aren't going away.

[@Manta_Tv]

this is what real sin is. i am horrified.

[@Manta_Tv]

its the most vomit enducingly uncreative thing i think i've ever seen.

[@david_ce]

@@Manta_Tv You sound like you haven't made a single piece of real art in your life

[@david_ce]

Coming from someone that is using computers to art as well, this is the most ignorant comment I've ever seen. The stench of elitism is pungent on you.

[@DoubleCritFail]

This was a really cool behind the scenes look. Thanks for sharing!

[@shaikikbhalBasha]

thanks

[@nuriman432]

it`s amazing

[@The_Thingshow]

Thanks

[@Democratese]

This is great. What do you do for mouths? Always my issue when making new characters

[@The_Thingshow]

Thanks! I usually reuse the same mouth for new characters. I picked Aardman style mouths to get away with it.

[@Democratese]

​@@The_Thingshownicely done.

[@that_Random_Cake]

Im in pain right now even thought this is really well made I dont think A.I should be used for animated shows. Good job tho.

[@savitasaini6943]

please make more detailed video of this

[@johng7423]

Has character animator sorted itself out? Last time I used it all the body parts kept detaching from each other when I made the character walk.

[@The_Thingshow]

Character animator can surprise you like that.😁 There's usually an explanation if you dig deep enough.

[@xbank.]

hello, I like your skill, I would like to pay for a full tutorial to make all these animations that you have done please.
if you agree let me know

[@The_Thingshow]

Glad you like the video's. Unfortunately, I don't do personal teaching. Luckily, CZcams is full of great tutorials about animating in Adobe Character Animator. A good start is to visit this channel: @okaysamurai

[@justtrend5730]

❤❤❤

[@OmIwanReaction]

Thank you, can you make a more detailed video? especially the video editing part 👍🏻 btw I have subscribed 😊

[@The_Thingshow]

Thanks for subscribing! There are a bunch of great editing tutorials on CZcams, not sure if I can add anything of value. If you have specific questions, I'm happy to answer them here.

[@Afkmuds]

have me on your show? 0-0 immma artist and i use ai assa tool to make my art better < 3

[@user-uy7ue5xs5g]

is it free to make like this

[@The_Thingshow]

There are free plans for most of the software, but they will not be sufficient if you want to create a lot of content.

[@HexMedia2474]

It's clear you put a lot of effort in this but please stop using ai voices, they are painful to hear.

[@The_Thingshow]

That's the goal. As soon as the channel is monitized, I can start paying actors

[@selenophile5256]

So you spend time doing the character movements,
Writing script, animating the eyes, feeding the dialogues, putting the layers together and sound production.
And the ai just mashes the random characters it produces and voices in the most momotonus tone.
If you learned how to draw , you might actually be able to animate exactly what you want since you are already doing all the work....

[@tidectrl]

alternative way: get actual talent

[@jerry7866]

ai "art" appals me.
