5 Amazing Animators You Should Know About! - Duration: 10:15.
On this channel, we've covered what budget means, how to identify animators, what bad
animation is, and of course, the endless coverage of various Dragon Ball-related media.
Throughout these videos, I'm sure you've started to gather at least an idea of the
type of animators or style of animation I personally enjoy, but I've never taken the
time to sit down and specifically talk about who my favourites are, what aspects of their
work I love, and what shows from their back catalogues I highly recommend.
I've never really given you guys the chance to talk about your preferences either, so
I hope we can use this video as an opportunity to sit back and talk about what we love, recommend
some animators, some shows, and just get to know each other better.
And, if you're new to this channel or new animation, then I hope you get something out
of it, too.
There are a lot of different approaches to movement.
For some, the heavily detailed artwork and highly stylised, exaggerated timing of Naotoshi
Shida's work is where their love is at.
This of course goes hand in hand with animators like Yuya Takahashi.
It's big and bold, with a real emphasis on rhythm over anything else.
There's also very snappy animators like Hiroyuki Imaishi or Yoh Yoshinari, very clearly
inspired by Yoshinori Kanada.
They almost want you to stop and admire their flashy key frames, often snapping between
really intense and dynamic poses.
You can pause at pretty much any point in their work and get a perfect screenshots.
On the other end of the scale are the animators whose emphasis is almost entirely on movement.
The characters flow from position to position seamlessly.
There's no distinctive key frame vs inbetween.
The characters are often stylised in a very minimalist way – lots of loose line work
and relaxed poses.
This is the type of animation that I absolutely adore and it's where almost every single
one of my picks lies in this video.
Let's get started…
In no particular order.
First up is Shinya Ohira.
Perhaps the most unconventional animator of anyone on my list, Ohira's work is hugely
expressionistic – it reminds me of very famous artist Gustav Klimt's sketches.
It's characterised by its hugely rough line work – there are no ruled lines here.
The characters move as though filled with water – with shading and form changing from
frame to frame.
Everything is about his work is extreme – the focus is totally on expression through abstract
form, rather than adhering to rigid reality.
The intensity of a scene is conveyed through wild brushstrokes or pencil marks, and of
course, the dramatic deformations.
Unlike most animators, what's happening in the scene isn't what evokes a feeling,
it's the way that it's animated.
WaveMotionCannon is a spectacular website dedicated to covering all types of animation,
and there was a part of their Ohira coverage that really stuck out to me.
I think it sums up 1.
Why I love Japanese animation so much, and 2.
Why Ohira is one of my favourites.
It says, "Whereas American animation is mainly concerned with truthfully representing
the characters that are being animated, Japanese animation instead focuses on the depiction
of the movement itself".
This is so, so true, and if you're looking for entire pieces that exemplify this approach,
I strongly recommend Kid's Story – a short in The Animatrix anthology.
It was supervised by animator Shinji Hashimoto who ALMOST made my list, and is definitely
a big influence for Ohira.
Ping Pong is another show that is also all about wearing its expressionistic style on
its sleeve, and embracing it from start to finish.
You'll struggle to find another sports anime as interesting as this one.
Next up is Mitsuo Iso, who in some ways, is very much the opposite of Shinya Ohira.
Iso embodies realism – he understands how things are supposed to move in reality, and
applies that to his animation seamlessly.
Every movement accounts for the object's weight and its inertia.
It's an absolutely unbelievable skill, and it makes his scenes so breath-taking to watch.
Even when he's animating things that simply don't exist – the Evas in Evangelion,
for example – they move in ways that totally sell them as living beings.
The way he goes about achieving this is fascinating.
The typical work flow of an animator is to draw the beginning and end key poses, and
work through the middle sections, before having inbetweeners fill in the rest.
Iso totally does away with that, handling every frame in his sequences, and treating
every drawing as a key frame.
He's never drawing from pose to pose, but rather moving through the motion frame-by-frame
in a really organic way.
This results in the 100% seamless movement you find in his work – there's no snapping
from key to key here.
Things accelerate, decelerate, and change course in totally natural ways.
This makes him an absolute master of movement, and one of my favourite animators working
today.
There are few shows that really embody his work as a whole.
Even his passion project Denno Coil failed to translate his style across the entire series.
If you're looking for his best work, you cannot go wrong with classics like Ghost in
the Shell, The End of Evangelion, and of course Blood: The Last Vampire.
Not quite a classic there, but definitely some of his best work.
Next up is a much younger animator in comparison.
Not quite the youngest on this list, but at 33 years old, Hironori Tanaka is a shining
example of the unique young talent found in the industry.
He was first discovered with his contributions to Toei's various PreCure series, and was
so impressive that director Takashi Otsuka at one point just left vague instructions
on his storyboard, and left everything else up to Tanaka.
Stylistically, he's most recognisable for his Ohira-esque linework, particularly when
it comes to the hair.
When he's let loose, characters will typically distort in a similar fashion, though certainly
not enough to scare off those who care for a more grounded approach.
His effects are very aggressive, dominating his action scenes, and making for some seriously
eyecatching compositions.
He's one of the hardest working animators around.
You can find his work across so many different shows.
It's absolutely astounding for someone his age.
Concrete Revolutio has a whole bunch of contributions from him, and even if you're not a fan,
that show is one of the best looking things to come about in a long time, so check it
out anyway.
Moving along, we have Norio Matsumoto, an animator who's been around for quite some
time, but first started seriously blowing minds from the early 90s onwards.
Fans of Naruto will know him for delivering pretty much all of the mindblowing fights
from the original series, in particular the battle between Naruto and Sasuke.
He amped up the action in Rurouni Kenshin, a show that doesn't have masses of great
animation on the whole, and contributed the far superior Gon vs Hanzo in the 1999 adaptation
of Hunter x Hunter.
He's an action extraordinaire.
His work is remarkably fluid, with extreme use of smears and squash and stretch.
I don't think it'd be inaccurate to say his extensive work on Naruto helped to form
the style of action that became the norm throughout the rest of Shippuuden.
Whether it be character acting or breathtaking fight scenes, Matsumoto's absolutely got
you covered.
Naruto's the obvious recommendation as far as shows go, but don't hesitate to check
out Isao Takahata's Tale of the Princess Kaguya for a very different look at Matsumoto's
talents.
Lastly, and despite me saying this was in no particular order, I have left my favourite
for last: Shingo Yamashita.
At only 30 years old, he is far and away the youngest animator on this list, but perhaps
one of the most idiosyncratic of the lot.
He is a part of the web-generation of animators, meaning he's one of the self-taught talents
in the industry who rose to fame through their gifs across social media.
Unlike the majority of animators who still work with pencil and paper, Yamashita is a
purely digital animator, who's been known to work in Flash.
Thanks to the playback freedoms offered by digital animation, it's much easier to put
together more complex camera sequences, and it's something you'll find in a good number
of Yamashita's scenes.
This is helped to life by a great deal of 2D background animation, along with some seriously
complex effects.
Much like everyone else on this list, Yamashita continues the running theme of exaggeration
and expression in his work.
He wanders severely off-model to deliver some truly disturbing sequences – in a good way!
And much like Ohira, he's not afraid to bend the rules, and it's not uncommon to
see him entirely abandon linework in favour of dynamic blobs of colour.
In spite of these influences, his work is very much his own, and he really is like no
other.
Birdy the Mighty, particularly the second season is one of the most amazing examples
of webgen animation, and you can find not only some of Yamashita's best work there
there, but also the likes of Tanaka and Matsumoto, too.
Yozakura Quartet is another very webgenny show, and definitely something to check out
if this type of animation appeals to you.
Loose, heavily idiosyncratic styles are 100% my thing.
I get so excited whenever I see movement like this, and it's one of the hardest things
to get right.
Making simple look stylish is not easy, but all five of these animators do it with ease,
and it blows my mind every time.
Thank you so much for listening, these have been some of my favourite animators in the
industry.
Be sure to let me know in the comment section where your tastes lie, who your favourite
animators are, and what shows are best to get a feel for their style.
Before I go I do have one thing to say: for those who have followed my channel since I
first started covering animation, you may be sat there and wondering where the hell
Naoki Tate is on this list.
I love Tate, I admire everything he's achieved at Toei, and he's absolutely one of the
strongest at the studio, and my favourite animator on Dragon Ball Super.
I will defend him to the end of days when fans try to claim he's somehow terrible,
but I'm also a realist, and it's clear he's not a touch on the animators listed
up to this point.
Just wanted to clear that up before the comments roll in.
Again, thanks for listening, be sure to rate the video, and subscribe if you're new.
Check out my latest video on what 'bad' animation is, and I will see you next time.

We are going to wait for

likely the next opportunity to
generate cash flow where it
makes some sense. The
rallies we saw last year were
all based on problems in
South America. It is a big
crop. It is not as big as last
year and so I think the
picture is positive for beans
and if beans are going to
continue to move higher
which whether we break
down on this - on this trend
that we have now or we
trade higher on into
December. I think you want
to be long beans in the front

EXTENSION'S JOSH
MAPLES SHARED SOME
ANSWERS.
---TAKE SOT---
[MARKET INTERVIEW
SOT]
---SOT---
Was the total number of
cattle and calves on feed
about what analysts
expected ?
Well it was in the range of
expectations. So pre-report
expectations, the average
was about a five point seven
percent increase over
October of last year, or over
November 1 of 2016. Uh,
this year came in about six
point three percent above.
So not too far off.
Although pretty much in the
ball park, but still we'd be
correct in using the term
'large' in describing this
inventory compared to a
year ago ?
Large is a fair term. It's a
fair term not only for this
report but for a lot of the
inventory story lines in the
beef and cattle industry right
now. The November first
cattle on feed inventory was
the largest since 2011. The
calf crop in 2017 is likely to
be the largest since 2007.
Beef production in 2017 is
going to be the largest since
2011. So I think 'large' is a
fair term not only for what
we're talking about here but
just in general on inventory
numbers in the beef
industry.
Any idea how much longer
we might continue to see
these year over year
increases in inventory ?
Yeah, I think we've
continued to expand the
herd in 2017. Uh, definitely
not as rapidly as we have
the last few years, though
we'll get a better feel for tha
here whenever the January
inventory numbers come
out. But right now I don't
see too much to suggest
that we're going to see a
slow down in these
placement numbers. We've
just got more cattle on the
ground out there, more
calves on the ground that
have to work their way
through the feedlots.
So, that was inventory.
What about placements ?
How did that figure shake
out ?
Yeah, so placements were
also in the range of pre-
report expectations. But
that range was pretty wide,
just like it has been for most
of the year. I think the
average pre-report estimate
was about 7-percent
increase over last year. The
actual number came in at
10-point-two percent above
October of last year. So
there was one extra work
day for packers this year
compared to last year so
that kind of makes the
numbers a little bit more
difficult to compare. But
still, that's not the main
story. The main story is
we're continuing to place
more cattle in the feedlots.
And quickly to close it out.
The marketings figure, how
did that look ?
So marketings came in six
percent above October of
2016. This is a big story
that gets overlooked
sometimes. These
increased marketings are
making sure that while we
have more cattle coming in
the feedlots, we're still
pulling them out at an
aggressive pace. This is
really helping our markets.
TRT: 2:40
OUTCUE: this is really
helping our markets

🎄 Art advent calendar ft. Animal Crossing - Vlogmas #1 - Duration: 5:18.
Hello everyone a welcome back to my channel. Today is the first day of
December and I'm doing vlogmas this year, just like last year. But this time I'm
doing something a bit different. I'm going to make an art advent calendar and
I'm going to draw every day until Christmas. To make things a bit more fun
and interesting for me I decided I want to make an Animal Crossing calendar
because I am playing Animal Crossing Pocket Camp at the moment and I'm very
very obsessed with the game. So, how I'm gonna do this. Over here I've got
characters from Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. So the villagers over here, about 40
of them. And there I've got some more characters. I've got some Christmassy
winter themes, all written. I would say I've got about 40 of them as well. And
over here I've got the little boxes that I'm gonna attach to my Christmas tree.
This little box you can open and I'm gonna put a character inside and a theme.
And because I've got more characters than there is days until Christmas, in
some boxes I'm gonna add a few characters and a few themes. I'm going to
do the boxes put them on the tree, and then I will pick the first day.
Okay so I've got my pile of paper I'm gonna take a box, open it and add two
characters and two themes. Completely random. I'm not looking at what I'm
doing. And there we go. I'm going to do that for all the boxes.
Okay, let's find the first box.
Found it!
There we've got our little box of today.
I'm gonna open it to see which character and which theme we've got.
So first we're gonna look at the themes and uh oh I've put three inside.
First one is a "log", the second one is "snow globe" and the third one is "soup".
And we've got two characters. So the first one is "Lily" a little frog and the second
one is oh it's "Isabelle". So this is the first character that we
meet in the game. How fitting! This is really random by the way.
Okay now I'll get to sketching.
I've got my markers with me and now it's time to color!
And that's it! My drawing for the first day of December is finished. So I did pick
Isabelle, Lily, log, soup and snow globe - Isabelle is here, this is Lily and
there's some soup, they are seated on the log and this is a snow globe.
I hope you enjoy! You can check the picture on my Instagram and I will see
you tomorrow, for another vlogmas. BYE!

How to Crochet An Advent Calendar: Christmas Tree Step 2 - Duration: 14:59.
Hi everybody, I'm Mikey and this is part of the Advent Calendar Series
that is a crochet along. For those working on the crochet along with me every few days a new video will be available to advance
you to the next part of your project.
There are 15 tutorials in all to complete today's project.
If you're finding this and the crochet along is done all videos will stay up indefinitely. In the more information of this video you'll find
a link to the playlist where all the tutorials will be listed in order for you to play along. The entire pattern is now available
for free. For those who don't need a video
refer to the video description to get redirected to the pattern. So in the meantime let's begin with today's tutorial to advance you to the
next step and of course wishing you the very best of the festive season ahead.
So let's move along in the project.
We're going to do the Christmas Tree here today, and we're also going to do the star.
So we're gonna do both of these. This is number two of the crochet along. For this one
you're also going to need your buttons because we're gonna apply our buttons at the end in order to do this.
So let's take a look back at the pattern first
and then I'm gonna show you what you need to do in order to complete the tree.
So on page number two is the tree section 1, 2 and 3 and then we get go and do the start just like you
see here. So what's gonna happen is that we're actually starting this tree upside down. So you have to look at this tree from this
upside down perspective, and there's a repeat of different
Instructions just like you see here
and we're gonna go through those and it says to repeat step four as you see once you get there.
And you'll notice that it increases like a triangle.
But the reality is, is that we have to visualize this thing upside down in order to
begin. So with your 5 mm, size 'H' crochet hook today
let's bring back the tree, and I'll show you how to look at it from this point of view for the pattern.
So from this perspective. We're going to be crocheting starting at the tree at the top section
just like you see here, and we're gonna get a triangle, and then we're gonna fasten off.
We then are going to start the next section
fastening on as we just skip so many stitches and we do across and then we continue the triangle out again
and then we fasten off and then the final section we skip so many stitches,
go across and then go as a triangle. just like you see here. Let me turn
it around if you need to freeze-frame to see where these buttons are the buttons are
incremental just like you see. So you have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the bottom,
you have four in the middle right here
and then you have four along this section here, you have three about halfway up,
you have four along this section here
and then finally the extra three right at the very top. So at the end of today's tutorial
we're also going to concentrate on the star, but let's start off with the Christmas Tree first.
So let's begin with the slipknot
and we're going to create this and insert our hook in this is using dark sage and a 5 mm, size 'H' crochet hook today.
So we have to then chain two so 1 and 2 and let's begin row number one.
It says one single crochet second chain from the hook, so just go, just count back
it's the very first one anyway, but you're just gonna do one single crochet here
and this is the very top of your Christmas Tree like so. We're then going to turn your work.
So I know it's kind of hard when there's only one stitch there, but that's okay
we're gonna get through it. So then we're gonna go row number two. So row number two it states chain one and two
single crochets in the first single crochet.
So just chain up one and there's only one here anyway, so we're gonna put two into this one, 1 and 2
okay and
then we're gonna continue, so we're gonna turn a work into row number three. So row number three says chain one and
it says two single crochets in each of the stitches.
There's only two, so you're gonna put two single crochets into each so 1 and
2 and
then do the next one it the next one over so 1 and 2,
just like that.
Okay, and then we're gonna turn our work and do row number four. So row number four is the identical for the remaining of
section number one.
We just have to keep on going in the same manner.
So we're gonna chain up one to always start and in the very first one
we're always gonna put in two single crochets so 1 and 2
and then in the stitches in between there's just gonna be one single crochet,
okay, and in the last,
so there's two in a row and in the last one here there's going to be two single crochets.
So that was row number four
So what happens is that you need to increase the tree
so there's up to have thirty four stitches all the way across. So turning your work
just chain up one and put in two single crochets in the first one, okay, so 1 and
all the sections work like this just so you know it for the future and then one single crochet in each going across
except for the very last one you are gonna put a total of two.
So just keep an eye on the stitch counts and just occasionally count
but you can look at the pattern and you can see that you got a little bit of a while to go before you can
even get thirty four stitches all the way across. So just to review one more time turn your work, chain up one,
two single crochets in the first one,
one single crochet in each going across except for the very last one where you'll put in two single crochets.
So I want you to repeat these steps until you get thirty four stitches across and
then just count it, count out just to make sure and
you should know that every time you're doing one row you're increasing the count by two
because you're adding one extra to the front and the back.
And I, when I come back so I want you to do that, when I come back I'll have that done for you. So
what I have here is that I have it increased out just like you see here
I've already put on my buttons and my star
but I've increased it out till I got to my 34 stitches all the way across.
Then I fastened off. So then moving on to section number two.
Section number two is that we're gonna skip the first seven stitches and then fasten on and then go all the way across and
you want to go until you leave the last
seven stitches untouched on the other side.
And then you just continue to put two single crochets in the first one and the last and you continue to go out
again
just like you see until there's 54 stitches going all the way across.
Then once you get that done is that you're going to fasten off and start once again on section number three skipping the first seven
and then you go all the way across ending leaving seven untouched and then continuing to
just grow out putting two single crochets on each side and continuing to grow it out like this.
Okay,
so once you have that done all you just need to do is then you need to sew this down to the actual project itself
and you can see where they have sewn it right here in behind.
So they just went
directly right across in order to hold it down into position so you can see it's kind of dipping down right here because it's
sewn right here
and it's also sewn along the edge. When you go to sew you'll notice that when they sewed they actually just
didn't go all the way through the project when they did that so they just went in the top upper sections here
just did the top fibers in order to hold it down. Then what they just did is then they just took
complementary buttons, and we have those buttons as well, and then we can just sew those into position and let's turn this one upside,
the other way
and you can get a good idea where all those buttons are. If you need to freeze-frame the video now is the time to do
it. So you can see where all the buttons are without any of the decorations on them
and as the week or the days come to gone or come to go you just take the decoration from the pocket
and then you just hang it on to the tree wherever you want in this entire tree will be decorated once we get that done.
So that's how you do this tree.
It's actually really quite an easy
section. The hard work really has been done within the actual
backdrop for time wise. All the rest of it then becomes not much easier to work with. So without further ado we're now going to move
on to the star. The star is actually really quite an easy one to do and then you have to then tack that down to
the top as well, and you can see that they tacked it just like right in behind here.
So let's begin to working on the star next.
So let's begin working on the star. You're going to need a gold color and in the pattern it has all this listed.
It's not very much work
that's required to do that and then we just create a center circle
and then we create a star points here in order to have it come off the edge.
And then once you have that done you sew it down to the top of your project just how I just indicated and there for
it'll be the star on the top of your tree. So without further ado let's show you how to do that.
To create the start all you're just going to do then is that you were going to start off with a slip knot and
you have to then chain a total of three so 1, 2, 3.
Then what you're going to do is that you're gonna put ten half double crochets third chain from the hook.
So you're just gonna wrap the hook first and go into the very first chain and
you wanna do that a total of ten times. So this is a half double crochet.
So 1, 2 this is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
And once you have that done. You're just gonna slip stitch to the first half double crochet.
Make sure you go actually to the top of it don't go into a chain space because then I'll pull it apart.
Just like that, see so it's nice and closed. So let's begin round number two, chain up two
which doesn't count as a half double crochet by the way and you've got to put two half double crochets in each of the stitches
going all the way around. So
you're gonna be putting in two into that one and then two into the next one and
so forth. So put in two half double crochets in each going all the way around. There should be a total chain our
count of 20 half double crochets
when you go all the way around and it does matter because it is a star with five points in it, relies on you to
have 20. So please do that all the way around, two half double crochets into each.
So as you get all the way around you're just going to slip stitch to the top of the first half double crochet
and you're done. So you're gonna fasten this off. Now usually in stars
we don't do that
but the designer is asking us to. So we fasten off first and
the points work over four stitches. So if you think about there's 20
stitches going all the way around.
I'm just weaving it in as I talk to you. Then what happens is that you can have five points which
equals a total of 20. So 4 times 5 points equals 20 stitches.
So let's begin doing one of the points. So we're just gonna start off with a slip knot first onto the
needle or hook and you're gonna choose any one of the half double crochets,
it really doesn't matter which one you choose because they're all equal. Just
fasten it on with the slip stitch so just pull through and through and you want to chain two.
Okay, so that doesn't count it as anything. So now you're going to then put the next two together.
So you just go right into the one you did the join so wrap the hook first
It's a half double crochet two together pull through and then
go into the very next one. So wrap the hook and go into the next one and pull through and
you'll have a total of five loops on your hook, so you're just gonna pull through all five.
So then you're gonna do that again with the next two. So wrap the hook going in, pull through,
wrap the hook going into the next one pull through and
then you'll pull through all five loops on
the hook.
Okay, so just take your time, and then you turn your work.
So you technically only have two stitches here when you turned. So you're going to then chain up two,
okay, and you are going to
put in their, um
half double crochet in each of the next two. So you're gonna do the first one and
the next one
and then turn your work okay, and then you're going to chain two and
these two are going to be coming together. So just put those a half double crochet two together
like that and then you fasten off.
So you pull through everything and
then fasten off, so there is a point right there.
So I'm gonna show you one more time just to make sure it's clear.
So then you just leave enough of a strand here that you can hide that in and then you sew that down on to your,
your backdrop. So let's begin to do it one more just to make sure, I'm gonna get rid of this
strand here. So let's do another point. So just grabbing the yarn create a slipknot and
we're going to go into the next one so
see where this one is part of that one so we go into the next one available.
Going in let's fasten it on with the slip stitch
and chain two, doesn't count as anything
it's a builder. So this one plus the next one is gonna be two together for half double crochet.
Okay, so you've got five loops on your hook pull through all five and do the same with the next two. So just advancing in
the next two
okay, pull through all five loops and then turn your work, so you're gonna chain up two and
there's only two stitches here, so there are only gonna be half double crochets one in each this time.
So you get like a row without having to think too much about and then turn your work,
chain up two and the two that you have left you're gonna bet put those together for
a half double crochet
just like you see and
then that's it. So you fasten off and there is another point for you.
And you keep doing that until you get five points.
So once you have that done is that you can refer to
the section and you can sew it down to here and when you look at the back you can see that
they hid the back section in right here, so all the strands that were on the tails were in the back.
You'll never see it anyway, so it's actually pretty easy to do and therefore you've done your tree
and you've done your star, you've got it sewn down, and the next time we come back in the next video
we are going to work on how to do these pockets. The pockets are relatively easy they take a little bit of time. Got some
slip stitching work in order to create the numbers that you see
but other than that that's what we're gonna be doing next. So I'll see you next time here on The Crochet Crowd as well
as yarnspirations.com. Bye, bye 👋
