suMales think Steven Universe is the best show on tv right now unironically
>>93374398
The only good thing about this is that it's technically proficient. Good shape consistency, good motion, decent timing, good overlapping and follow through.
Otherwise, it's a boring static shock for an action, that composition is a fucking mess, Stevonnie is making a horrible :T face that is completely ill fitting for the situation, the palette is all over the place and doesn't tell you anything about the mood of the scene, and any cool training is immediately ruined when she does a goofy Yoshi run in midair.
So yes, this is technically "good animation", but that's strictly it.
come on stop bein salty i wanna see some nice gifs

You've been playing too much dark souls anon
>>93374398
My favorite moment of the show
i think op means slightly above average than shit animation in currently running shows
>>93374627
What shows would you like us to post from? What cartoons currently airing do you think has stunning moments of animation?
Clarence, Uncle Grandpa, We Bare Bears, Star Vs., Penn Zero, Loud House, Spongebob, Fairly Oddparents, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Two More Eggs, The Croods, Puss in Boots, Pickle and Peanut, Billy Dilley, Home, F is for Family?
Seriously, what are you expecting? All those shows might have serviceable animation and at least get the job done, but that's it. We don't practice any sakuga techniques here. The closest you'll get are guest animators once in a blue moon.
Animated shows were founded on the nature of a cheap, limited production with shit animation, and the skill level of artists who work in the TV industry has degraded every ten years since then.
You want consistent good animation from the States, you're gonna have to look towards movies, not TV.
>>93374571
>>93374608
A decent chunk of it seems like it's false-flagging, because it's some of the lowest effort bait currently available. You don't have to put even a tiny bit of effort in and you'll reap some salt.
>>93375118
Fucking this, you can post a completely benign topic like "Hey guys what's a good cartoon to watch" and if your OP has an SU image in it the thread gets fucking flooded with people shitting the floor about SU. It practically seems like there's a dedicated group of shitposters that wait for anything remotely-SU related to get posted so they can call it shit. Inb4 SU fan, I'm not defending it for a second but holy shit it's surreal how much fucking assmad this show seems to cause.
>>93374659
What really makes Gumball's animation spectacular is that it manages to look good while being a complete clusterfuck of different elements and art styles. The staff of that show is talented as fuck.
>>93375206
i know! for people that hate su so much, they fucking love to talk about it. i just want to talk about cartoons without it devolving into this shit
>>93374659
Wait that was the first episode? They made a great impression then.
>>93374794
The problem with movies nowadays is that they are all 3D cg stuff. I would love to see another 2D animated movie made in America again.
>>93375247
3D has surpassed 2D, 2D is just a novelty now.
>>93375245
Sadly, it got worse after that. Literally one of the most visually impressive moment of the show.

>>93375291
3D looks shit compared to 2D
>>93375411
That was like 5 or 6 years ago
>>93375445
And the only time SU got good animation was when a Japanese studio animated a couple of scenes so i dont see your point
>>93375416
CG can look pretty fantastic when you put the money in. At least when it comes to monster and animal characters. You can also get a lot more acting done in less time than 2D, which is a bonus when working with tight deadlines.
>>93375411

No it doesn't.
https://vimeo.com/43769992
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTii0uCrKqI
Both of these took one month of work to do, but the top is definitely more elaborate.
>>93374398
While I can sorta appreciate SU's story line, the animation is a fucking joke 99% of the time,
>>93375700
CGI is generally more expensive, but that's because all of the technology and specialized technical experts you need. No art takes more man-hours to make than traditional animation.
>>93375747
>intended to start more edgy SU hate/drama to get any mention of SU banned for good!
so this is a good thing?
>>93375838
>No art takes more man-hours to make than traditional animation.
>>93375671
>>93375652
That's a normal thing in competent CG. CG looks like complete shit if it ever stands completely still, so the models need to constantly be moving slightly. Breathing is the easiest way to do it.
>tfw too lazy and incompetent to learn traditional animation
>>93376034
>No one pays for traditional animation anymore.
FTFY
>>93376152
They still pay for it, but only if it's made in some third world shithole for pennies on the dollar.
>>93376339
It's obvious.
Unionise the animators in those third world shit holes.
Make the networks move their animators team until they run out of countries to exploit.

>>93374398
Remember that one well animated fight scene from that one amazing SU episode where Jasper and Pearl sparred against each other and then fucked afterwards and nobody cried or wandered off to do nothing with townies the entire time? I wish I did.
>>93376786
She phases through a fucking tree in the beginning
>>93375671
>>93374414
plus a Japanese Animator did some of the keyframes for that specific episode
>>93374398
Wasn't it found out that nearly every cinematic SU fight scene was just traced over from various anime scenes?
>>93374398
>currently running shows
>>93376989
nope: you're thinking of one specific early "fight" (pearl sparring with a holo-pearl) was a blatant homage to a fight from Utena
everything else has been unique for the most part
>>93374571

But yeah, building 100 mouth shapes takes longer than drawing 100 mouth shapes.
>>93376786

>>93374794
Not to mention shows like Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Bunicula, Be Cool Scooby Doo (even if both are barely airing as it is), TTG, 90% of all anime... I could go on myself.
Face it, it's rare enough to get any form of good animation from any TV production. What you're asking for OP is something that can really only be found in commercials or in the occasional show like Samurai Jack. And even that's stretching it.
>>93374398
I despise this show a lot, but that was actually pretty good.
>>93377783

No, it's not. It's just as decent as any other show on CN sans Gumball and Uncle Grandpa. It's perfectly serviceable but not shit in any way.
>>93380492
Japan's is just flashing and fighting. There's no class to half of Japan's stuff. I always felt there were more interesting stories produced here.
>>93380565

>using a movie as a example
Really?
>>93380583
Yeah but where's the pizzazz? There's no fun or nuance here. It's something that could be done better in live action. I like my cartoons to stand out, do something that only the medium could do. Anime never had that for me. It needs variety, because anime are either all stupid pocket monster randumb humor or super edgy and bloody experimental films and shit. Boring.
>>93380683

Anon, while I disagree with your stance whether it should be live action or not, I'd suggest you try Tatami Galaxy or any of Yuasa Masaaki's works.
His stuff oozes style and personality. It's some of my favorite animation.
>>93380866
That's a little more interesting. I feel soul here. It's got an atmosphere different than the rest.
>>93380896
I'm just gonna post some more of his stuff. This is Ping Pong the Animation. I can't post the webm because co is being shit.
And Tatami Galaxy is probably my favorite anime. Tl;dr it's about an under achieving college student who reflects on how he fucked up his first few years of school. Each episode is an alternate reality where he fucked up differently.
>>93380982
This is from Kemonozume. It's like Romeo and Juliet with exorcists.

>>93381037
>If /co/ just accepted anime was better and focused on pushing for higher standards here that'd be swell.
Even if the entirety of /co/ pushed for higher standards /co/ isn't the fucking target/money audience for the shit they watch! Just like /a/ isn't the target for anime (most Japanese creators don't give a shit about western audiences as a whole.)
Neither board is ultimately relevant on a feedback level to their industry, /a/ being slightly less so than /co/ because at least /co/ can brag that some of their creators have poked their heads in. However, even this is irreverent because western cartoons are made for children, and will continue to be made for children until the whole fucking industry collapses, there will be no evangellion effect, fuck we've even watched Evangellion, and western audiences don't give a shit. Disney rules the market and Disney knows they can just target children and the adults WILL follow, even the pathetic childless otaku will follow and waifu their shit and pay up their cash. No point in trying to target fucking otaku and losing the much vaster child/parent market.

Younger me used to think that action scenes = good animation. Thank god I can actually appreciate stuff like this now.
>>93378244
It's good animation practice and sexy at the same time.
I mean, one of the biggest issues with Western animation is that the really talented people pretty much never work together. You have companies whose only purpose is CGI, and they do god-tier CGI work, but unless you're working on a movie or similar big-budget project, you'll never see any collaboration.

>>93384554
France man
>>93384554
The french have done well and seem to be gaining momentum.
One thing that disney/pixar does or wants is that they emphasize characters and character motivation
I"m just gonna repeat what my teacher said.
Look at the diference between how these characters move, act and are design
Ratatouille
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whQHK_G3hH8
So in this scene. Everything is completely design. Pay attention to the negative and positive shapes and how it guides the eye.
Throughout the whole scene, the animation is reserved. They're all going for the golden poses to sell the story. When Linguini holds remy out above the river, you're only feeling tension because of the context of the scene and accompanied music. The actual scene itself isnt animation intensive. More simple but clear poses. Linguini may some to move a lot but his key pose is generaly the same. Throughout his rant, he goes from pose a-b-c and then stays in A. He may move a lot but he the animatator is very reserved to both stay in those story telling poses and let the audience see the eyes. Even when linguini is shock by his revlation about Remy, the extreme poses are still very clear.
A Clever trick. You dont have to animate everything. when Linguini knocks the jar over. you don't see him actually go into the river. saving time, money and effort. Just a simple splash and the Story moves on, making sure the scene is going at a steady pace.
1 out of whatever. gonna keep going until i type out his lecture
>>93384734
In this scene here and next, you can see how beautifully these shot is design. How Linguini is hunched over and looking at Remy and how the nose of Remy points back. Not only is it the pose but also the layout and color, guiding you're eyes on where to look.
Overall is a very simple but very clear in its excution
Next up. how to train your dragons.
>>93385014
>Next up. how to train your dragons.
Pretty radical shift in topic to be honest.
>>93380693
mate that's major bullshit. animation isn't just cartoony movement and imposible angles.

>>93384644

>>93385212
>you couldn't get in live action
Ok, weeb
>>93385014
Had to record footage because i didnt have a copy of dragons on hand
https://files.catbox.moe/kd79jt.mp4
So similar scene.
So when hiccup is on his desk we see how messy and cluttered his room is to emphasize the point that he is a busy kid, between Toothless and dragon school.
However the clutter makes is hard to read the characters and the dark lighting makes it hard to see the characters. Along with the fact that there is quite a bit of extra moment. It helps sell the character but makes it hard to focus on where our attention should be. ANd if wee cant see the characters face and eyes, we lose attachment to the character..
So alot of times we're sacrifacing visual clarity for motion.
Its a design choice of the movie though, they wanted a very tactile feeling, hiccup feels alot of his surronding. A big contrast to the previous pixar scene. While these characters are more realistic because all those movements help sell the character is becomes a question of how much is too much movement before it becomes visually distracting.
Next up is Tangled

I understand the concepts you are talking about but I don't really see them present in the example you gave. 3D animation didn't really get a hand of athmosphere and set design until very recently. Ratatouille and HTTYD don't really shine for it.
question: do you only analize disney or you observe other pieces of animation?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sst1GK_wDCo
So if you compare this to ratatioule and dragons. you can see a huge style difference. in Tangled everything is push to the extremes. Very simple poses, shillouttes, clear lighting. characters are in light, everything not import is in the dark. The eyes are centered on the chracters and dont move around lot. everything is very clear and simple to read. Alot of A to B poses. they dont move around alot compared to Dragons.
WHen eugene freaks out. even that is reserved. Eyes are clear to read. there is no B pose, so eugene stays in A through the whole scene and the animation very simple. When Rapunzel tells him to don freak out. She goes into the next pose and stays. Back to eugene. He stills stays on the pose and then finally breaks out into other pose, A to B.
The choices made is on how much and how limited they move. While it is animated is all very design. It all about clarity. whlie not as realistic in movement like Dragons. it still doesnt take away form the emotional appeal. Throughout the whole clip. you never lose sight of the eyes. So the pose and the lighting ensures the audience you never break contact with the face and eyes comapred to Dragons.

I bet Diana's happy she can murder something in a pg cartoon.
I've always found myself more attracted to the idea of animating action scenes, but do you think it'd be better to work on more subtle subdued animation.
>>93385649
Ah no. im just a student taking an online course. I thought the lecture on animation and movement might have been relative here. so i decide to write down what my teacher said..
I'm still learning how to implement all these things and i'm re watching movies to my animation. But all these notes were from lectures that i recorded.
I went to Ianimate and my teacher was Tal Sharzman . He recently finsihed up cars 3 and is working on Incredibles 2

OK KO takes the trigger approach to animation. Where the quality of animation is inconsistent so they can focus on really focusing on animating the action well and the weaker animation is used for comedic purposes. What the people making OK KO haven't got down is smoothly transitioning between the two. I like that they're trying something fresh though.

Not to the extreme Trigger takes it. Plus you can see the Trigger influence in the first episode with how they introduce the characters.

It died too soon
So whats the deal with american animation? Why is it so bad? I mean even Japan that pays literal peanuts and has clearly low budget anime has better animation than most American shows.
>>93389859
Because America simply doesn't take cartoons as seriously as Japan.
Japanese recognize animation is a medium, not a genre, and can be enjoyed by anyone of any age.
America still sees cartoons as for kids outside of exceptions like South Park/Family guy

>Japan's is just flashing and fighting. There's no class to half of Japan's stuff. I always felt there were more interesting stories produced here.
Except Japan understands that animation doesn't just have to be kids shows or dick jokes. Seriously, adult animation is one of the most childish fucking things ever, and I can only think of Venture Bros as an animated show for adults that actually tells a story, rather than using the show as nothing more than a glorified clown car releasing half a dozen sex jokes in the span of three minutes. It's also why it's one of the best adult cartoons ever made. I'm not snobby, Superjail is one of my favourite cartoons. I just know there's nothing classy about the show.

I wouldn't call OPM's animation particularly innovative or noteworthy, but it definitely does a competent job of conveying the character of the series, which are what really set it apart.
>>93393689
Bojack is pretty much just another adult comedy with formulaic feels moments

>>93393819
to bad the current state of american television doesn't allow for it. Soccer moms killed saturday morning cartoons, and the toyetic formula shows had long since died. So there not a lot of options for cartoons to make a return on their "investment"
And given the west mindset for animation being either kiddie shit or immature, low-brow "adult" sitcoms. There is an extreme lack of diversity of cartoons.

It is kind of a shame that the few good animated shows have to emulate anime in order to be taken seriously. Teen Titans, Boondocks, Avatar, new Castlevania coming out.
I do wish we got more B:TAS or Venture Bros type shows. I'd like to see an actual western take on stuff rather than, "W-we look like anime! That means we're serious, right?!". Something that does have a story to tell without falling back on basic geometric shapes for designs. Like, I think the worst aspects of stuff like Over The Garden Wall, Infinity Train, and Gravity Falls are the character designs.

People just don't like toon-like styles. Just look at how people prefer the original anime-like Ben 10 over the toon-like Ben 10 omniverse. Omniverse is the best Ben 10 series yet a lot of people hate it just because the art. Same with Transformers Animated. The best TF show out there and people don't taken it seriously for its art.

You have no excuse Anime fights are the epitome of floaty is just that characters are so attractive and girls so hot you don't really care about it.
There is a big reason for it though since Japanese cannot generate such impact irl. Direction is all that matters Those DC movies have much more "punch" and there is probably lots of gooks involved in their creations.

"Why are you so hard to talk to? I'm polite. Each time I approach you, I say konichiwa. I always ask you about your favorite anime before talking about my waifu. Youre usually really shy (which is cute imo) but I hate that I have to be the one to constantly engage in conversations with you, and how you usually act disinterested because I'm a Christian. Yes, I get that it's awkward because of things like the Crusades but I don't hold it against them. Why can't the himes just realize that I respect Japanese culture and that I really want to be part of it. I'm willing to marry a Japanese woman, adopt Japanese children and live in Japan for the rest of my life. Hell, I'm even learning the language by watching undubbed anime. Plus, I cook a mean bowl of rice (for those who don't know, Japanese eat a lot of rice, I do too my Mom says that I act like a Japanese person because of all the rice I eat and the shit I watch"

we asked the animator of that fight scene on /sug/ once and she said that she doesn´t work in the US, and CN only lets people living there to work in official stuff.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nQLiq3PkG8
>>93403282
Because it looks "ugly" and "childish". If a cartoon has a cartoonish style people don't take it seriously. That is why people prefer TF Prime. Prime is a "dark" and "serious" show for mature "people" and Animated is for dumb little kids

We need to bring back the invisible hand for animation
>>93403654
>>93403654
Which is weird, because the animation style lends extremely well to fast paced action scenes and interesting character designs. The story deviated a lot from previous entries, which mean that the characters were all original fresh takes on their original part counterparts. Transformers always had the problem of throwing the audience into a team that already work extremely well together, that had been fighting the same war they've fought since forever ago. How could you tell any interesting stories with this kind of a premise? People always complain about the human characters, but that's the only element in the typical Transformers show that could introduce new elements that are developed through the show. Not to mention, the animation style also forced the toys design to be much more creative and varied, which was also a plus. TF Animated was different in this regard, and it worked, but people hated it anyway. So strange.
>>93403869
Manchildren like to pretend that their kids show isn't for kids and it's actually some super hidden gem TV show that should be respected by the average populace. That's how bronys and SUfags came to rise because their shows are "secretly very adult"

Ben 10 Omniverse has the same problem. Derrick style works great in motion but people hate it because it looks "ugly". A lot of Ben 10 fans prefer the piece of shit that was Alien Force just because it was a "dark and mature" show. Look at this. It looks fucking great:
