The Lion Guard

Was this show animated in 3D or 2D?

It's flash puppets.

That's putting it bluntly, but yes. Because the computer program does a lot of the heavy lifting for them, the show uses a lot of weird perspective shots that other cartoons seldom use. The characters are often seen from behind, or from above, and while facing different directions. It doesn't always look "right", but it's still neat, considering how often modern cartoons force the characters to be facing the screen.

>It was at this stage in The Lion Guard’s production that things took a slightly different turn. Christian Larocque, animation director at Mercury Filmworks, wanted to find a more fluid way of animating characters in the short amount of time he had available to him. His idea was to “rig” the character in 3D first, which meant creating a digital puppet of each animal character, which the animators could then spin around and see from every angle.

>It was this technique, thought to be the first of its kind, that allowed the team to put the cartoon characters in every conceivable position, whether they were jumping on to rocks or leaping into the air. This allowed them to see how the characters would move in any given situation. “The rig has all the points of articulation; all the joints of the character, the mouth movements, the eye movements,” says Riley. Once the animators had used the 3D rig to work out how each character would look in each position, they could translate that into a 2D model to give the animation that authentic, “handdrawn” look.

>The 3D rigging meant, according to Riley, a lot of work at the “front end of production” – but the result was worth it. “We’ve all been blown away by how successful it’s been,” says Riley. “Everyone loves The Lion King so much, we’ve got to produce a show that tries to approach that level of quality.”

If that technology fell into the wrong hands - or the right hands, depending on your perspective - I wonder what they would be able to do with it.

I want to have sex with all of the animals on this show.

Do you suppose he watches this show for his waifu?

>>90186769
Don't fuck the hippo. That's disgusting.

>>90187454
Why not?

>>90186779
Not just his waifu, judging by the way he reacted to cheetarah, it's safe to assume he likes all kinds of characters.

So it's created using 3D models filtered down via its artstyle into a 2D image?

>>90187995
Hose him off and then fuck his asshole.

Either that or wobbly bouncy 2d shapes.

No, it's rotoscoped, but with 3D models instead of live-action actors.

You don't like boys either? What do you want? Dickgirl animals? I don't think that's appropriate for a children's show.

I think /co/ may not be the right place for you if something like this bothers you so much.
Have you tried Toonzone?

>>90192626
That's more like a prolapsed vagina that can go erect than a penis.

Yet the show doesn't have much of a following, if at all. People never quite got over the "preschool" hurdle, even though the show could easily pass as a TV-Y7 show. Their decision to make it a preschool show had more to do with merchandising than anything else.

Last bump.

She's a cheetah. Having strong legs is probably implicit.

This is a completely unedited screenshot from the show. Taken out of context, sure, but still unedited. Fuli had a bunch of little animals riding on her back and, later in the episode, said she could still feel them. Bunga checked for her and told her they were gone.

>today's episode was pretty bland

that describes every ep, and I like the show

>>90184768
why would they make a kids show out of one of the darkest Disney entries? They could do so much more with it

>>90204986
They're not all bland. Many of them are, perhaps. There have been a few really good ones.

>>90205109
which ones?

>>90205832
I liked the Kupatana one, as the jackals are generally great villains. The aardwolves one was okay for the same reason. It's probably overstated, but Jasiri's two episodes are also good. Yes, Zira and the outlanders are downplayed a bit, but that's to be expected.

The Imaginary Okapi is worth mentioning for Steve Blum. I'm not sure he voices many animal characters, but he was fun as the leopard. The Trouble With Galagos was okay as well.

No it's all pseudo 3d unlike actual 3d of paperman with overlayed 2d elements.

Lionguard is made in toonboom harmony and utilizes this kind of tech:

Disney released this mini-fig in a blind-bag, listing it as "Battle Fuli". This just screams "battle", doesn't it?

>>90214908
Isn't toonboom basically like 3D in 2d or something? I remember someone was making a rick and morty parody in toon boom and he essentially rigged the characters up like they were 3D models.

>>90223674
People look for things to complain about. They don't care about the truth. The fact that the main characters are essentially adolescents instead of little babies is one of the things that I like about the show.

>>90225920
Kion can't be an OC, his colors are too simple and has no accesories
