People Are Still Needed!!!

So this is a followup to my post about a Wynncraft Animated Series (https://goo.gl/xoOkgd)

I have a few voice actors, artists and writers however the one thing I really need are some animators (or modellers) as without people to animate the series then we cannot actually do the series...

 

@Meroboter asked to be tagged - he'll probably happily help

 

I think @Francis12qwasyx is the best modeler on this forum, and I only use mine-imator, sorry
also francis is a maya user so you're lucky

 

What you are asking of renderers/animators is crazy, like I'm loving the idea of the community collab to make an awesome series but the animators are at the heart working their asses off, that's why no one is signing up. I think a lone project of just one episode would work well and you might get a few animators but a series of animations WITH VOICE OVERS ;~; ;~; ;;;;~~~~~;;; no no no just wont work

 

coward

 

You use mine-imator nerd

 

That is why I am trying to find multiple people so that it can be shared between them.

 

I'm a huge pro at Mine-Imator, I can make my renders look like Cinema 4D if I put enough time and effort into it.

 

It's also impossible for multiple people to work on one project, constant file transfers + all the textures. And different platforms (Cinema 4D, Maya Autodesk, mine-imator *yuck*, Blender.

 

Impossible would mean that it cannot be done. It can be done, however as you unintentionally contradicted yourself, file transfers are a thing. And another thing are lovely additions called Plugins, after a simple google search "can c4d open obj files" and another of "how to open obj files in blender" shows that it would be possible to transfer files between programs, Max/Maya & Mudbox can't open eachother's files, however they can open .obj files and .fbx files allowing for conversion between; C4D, Maya, 3DSMax, MudBox, Rhinoceros, AutoCAD and a F*** ton more.

 

.obj files are fucking useless lol

 

I'm sorry and I do like the idea but I agree to what PixelVox is saying, and I'm sure all of the animators there would agree on that point...
You probably won't find any help with animating for series here let's be real, it is too much work mate...

 

.obj was an example, other files work too, and online converters exist too.

 

Unfortunately, I can't service you with modelling, but I can provide you with a signatur which should be able to get this thread as much attetion as it can.

I mean yeah it isn't impossible, but it'll take a hella long time. Unless they are very talented, it isn't much of an option. A better choice could be machinimas, where there is still a bit of animation work going on, sort of like what crafted movie does. Another thing (Don't know what it's called I'm no animator) is pre animating a bunch of things like running, walking and breathing and using those presets all the time so it doesn't take much work in the future.

 

I don't see how this is possible. Some things are possible and impossible, but asking people to volunteer to create a collab is quite a thing to do. Although I love the idea and the outcome would be amazing, the different platforms would also affect the duration of the film, and not to mention the final editing. I understand this could be done for the sake of entertaining the community, but it would be preferable to have everyone on their own platform, but then again, everyone has their own ways and styles, so that would affect the way the animation looks.

 

From my personal experience using 4 different animating softwares, what he just asked of animators above is in-fact impossible. And what you were talking about is c-motion :P But that is clunky and still not universal on all animating software

 

I want a trailer to get everyone hyped for the series. I'd love to see that.

 

He uses Maya?!? Dang, I've always wanted to get into Maya with the student copy, but it's way too complicated to just sit down and start.

 

If you're asking for multiple animators, it'd be best to ask a group of friends who happen to all animate, preferably using the same program and with the same skill levels as each other. They'd have to be willing to help as well, unless you'd be willing to pay them for that needed "motivation", as animations are not the easiest thing to do.
