- Let's talk about camera angles and techniques! Something often overlooked by new animators - and very important for storyboard artists! - because they're so focused on the animation of their characters that their camera work isn't fully considered. But good camera techniques and carefully planned shots will greatly improve your storyboards and animations.
Camera angles and movements have a huge impact on storytelling and subtext, which contribute to the strength of your shots. Become a better storyboard artist or animator by using camera work to its best advantage.
Storyboarding and planning your scenes and shots is incredibly important in the animation workflow process so don't overlook it - and part of that process is carefully considering your camera techniques and angles!

Arrives for Robyn's knowledge & stays for the witty sarcasm ~ Thank you! Love ya!
I love that, thanks Reila! Love ya byeee!
So, I've always loved storyboards with all my heart (way more than full crafted animations) because I find them to be extremely expressive yet I didn't know they were called like that until an hour ago, then, inmediately after learning that, the first thing I found was your really fun and informative channel! This seems to be my lucky day❤
That's awesome to hear! Hope your luck keeps being good !

@@RobynO_O Seriously. This video is so incredibly helpful. Im working on a small animated cartoon series as a passion project and this video helped so much. I have adhd and often struggle alot with paying attention to these kinds of videos, but you have the perfect mix of being casual and passionate about this, it just works so well and you explain everything so well, I've spent hours noting up everything you said about each camera angle and technique in this video in a journal, it's just so amazing. I can tell you put alot of effort in your videos, keep doing what you're doing, it's all just so great. thank you!
@@gurg6950 that's awesome, I'm so glad to hear that ! Thanks for letting me know that my videos are genuinely helpful, and watchable! 😊 good luck with your project!
@@RobynO_O ❤
an extreme close up is a close up.... but extreme... jajajajaja thank you for your tips :) by the way I love your background! really nice color (of the wall) XD
Ha ha! Thank you! I love the wall colour too. Some people have let me know that they don't dig it so much but I'm really happy with it!
I know this isn't related to the video, but I think you're really beautiful
Thank you , that's always nice to hear!
Hey Robyn, Thank you, Thank you thank you! After this video I'm taking a well needed break from modeling and rigging and going to study every Tim Burton movie I have for the rest of the night, maybe tomorrow too. haha... Now that I know how to study all the different shots ; ) I see from the T-shirt, maybe summer has finally landed over there... It made an ugly comeback here. I think the shorter video format is just as powerful as the longer ones. It's amazing how you manage to pack so much useful information into the shorter format. Are you doing a Rookies animation critique this week? anyway I hope all is well and Thank you again for being so amazing!
Hi Justin, you're welcome! That sounds like a good plan, can't go wrong with watching Tim Burton movies and it's good to take a break when you've been focusing on one specific thing for a while! It actually really helps, once you're aware of the shots, to watch movies and try to study what kinds of angles and techniques they used and why. Yep I think Summer is finally fully here, although it's technically Spring but it's pretty hot already! I'm not doing a Rookies critique this week, there weren't any new submissions for feedback. Thanks and I hope you're doing well too! Have a great rest of your week
Really good video, you sound South African, are you South African? 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
thanks! I am 😊 Joburg born and bred
Which song was that 😂
ha ha I don't even know, it's just been doing the rounds on TikTok and I thought it was hilarious
if u dont mind me asking, are you australian??
I'm South African :)
@@RobynO_O cool! you sound australian lol.
@@shreyalove715 ha ha think our accents sound pretty similar to other people
@@RobynO_O ig thats true lol. I've always wanted to visit south africa! i love how diverse it is.
@@shreyalove715 me too, thats one of the best things about it !
I was wondering if I could be an animator in south africa but work from Home , because I don't want to take the vaccines
yes you can, especially now since so many people are working from home. Some companies do prefer freelancers to work on site but you can tell them upfront that you prefer to work from home. They might or might not be ok with that. Depends on the company.
@@RobynO_O Do you know any animators that work from home ?
@@genasagiri6905 I do but I work full time , I'm not a freelancer . But any freelance jobs I've done except for the really big long term projects, have been worked from home.
@@RobynO_O I see, well I'm just so concerned for my future as an animator and i really want to know everything about it . I'm saving money for a drawing tablet to make anime art/comics and possibly try to animate, which drawing tablet would you recommend if you don't mind me asking ?
