Hand Drawn Time Lapse

Saturday, March 21, 2015

A moment of artistic insanity. A presentation for my Youtube channel using Blender 3D and Gimp, more precisely, the GMIC plugin. The Television model was taken from the Jetsons Show. I'd like to thank the http://www.hollywoodcamerawork.com/greenscreenplates.html for ceding the model who was transformed into a drawing by the GMIC.

Blender and Freestyle

I used the Tamito Kajiyama's SVG Maker into the blender to produce a vector file, my intention was to export that file to a program like Synfig to manipulate as 2D. Unfortunately, it couldn't be done because the Synfig and Pencil don't support svg file. After that, it was necessary to use the Inkscape to then export to Synfig. "My (computer) processor sticks its tongue out at me". Gimp (with Blender Editor of course) became my animation program for a while, I'll use the layers as frames. Note that I took away some frames from the render settings in order to get the animation effect of frames by frame.

I was testing the possibilities with Miss Cloude and I decided to make her protest against the lack of heath, education and against the corruption, although she already stole a bag of rice from a little communitary party. LOL.

One Less Creative Person on the World!


animator 2dThe Dutch animator winner of the Golden Bear , Gerrit van Dijk,  died now on December 4th and left us his work of art . I liked his 2D techniques, he used many times the rotoscopy technique with Pencil Drawing Effect having an insight into social injustice.

his wise words about school:

"You only learn technique. The creativity you learn is no creativity at all. You know exactly what colour socks you should wear and what your hair should look like, but not how to put something on paper"

Between Two Litigants was the animation that gave me the most work ever. The half of the process was traditional technique 2D (except the use of acetate) and the other one was tablet. Anyway, I didn't use vector graphics techniques.


Where the Story beginsDuring the process of the traditional technique, my patience was really put to the test. In the beginning, since I hadn't any practice until then, to make between 3 and 5 different designs on the light table, to create the illusion of movement, I took the whole day. Then, by scanning drawings in pencil trace, It still took half a day, if everything occurred well in the computer prediction, I put the pictures back on the light table and I reinforced them with black pen (of course, it took the other half day). Dude, it was terrible, and the worst wasn't the animating process in itself, but external factors which hindered me. My neighborhood wasn't one of the quietest; there were cars with speakers yelling at people, telling them to buy the most useless things, my mother who told me to get a real job and neighbors who loved reforms, by the way, one of them was maniac; he loved to hammer aimlessly.


Miss Cloude is laughing at the ParrinhaIn short, to animate 9 minutes and 10 seconds, it took me 2 years and 6 months. For 6 months, in fact, I stopped, because I couldn't concentrate with so many hammers ringing in my head. The sound effects and musical part demanded lots of research. there were also many external factors to hinder, as mentioned above, sound cars and hammerings which forced me to make recordings at night. The story, Between Two Litigants, focused on two characters with conflicting goals. Parrinha, a body shop worker, needed to finish his service at time and there was none to help him. Miss Cloude, however, wanted to spend a pleasant afternoon and to have a siesta without problems watching your favorite TV show.
Some people say I don't like the Miss Cloude, but this is not true, since I feel the two characters' drama. The Parrinha works alone and needs to maintain the quality of his service and Miss Cloude needs her space to be respected in order to achieve her target.


Parrinha's talking to Colonelo CompanyWhen I finally finished my animation work, I was drafted into State Military Service and sent to a barracks in the border of the state. I couldn't even see my animation be displayed in my city Short Film Festival. According to two friends spies who were at the festival, the compatriots' reception was extremely cold (except the children's one who laughed at Miss Cloude and Parrinha's fight), They looked at each other with a huge question mark on the face, others shaked the head angrily.
I showed, posteriorly, this short film to my platoon, some people in the barracks and in the town I was living. The result was equal to what had been to the kids of my city; they laughed at my characters' fight.

Why Do Some People Take Things So Personally?
