Thank you so much for half a million subscribers. I hope this video strikes a balance between helpful and entertaining. I encourage everyone with the faintest interest in animation to try out this process, it's really fun and unique. It's okay to steal my style outright, imitation is flattery and the greatest jumping off point for finding your own style. Links in the description to everything you'll need! Much love

You are the best human, I love you guy.

Thanking for mouse clicks.. such a shitty trend

Thx man

You are humble, I appreciate you

I think your take on “cheating” with newer tech is awesome and can be applied to so many fields too.

Do girls animate like that? do girls do that?

Reminds me of Rick and Morty for obvious reasons

wow man, i always wanted do something similar, but i'm not to skilled, for realise. this is amazing!

I fkin love this :D

Why does he sound like Strong Bad? It's not just me, right? And I say that positively. No insult intended.

Very interesting way of animation. It's like rotoscoping but more AI based

This is so cool. It's a combination of animation and live action. It's amazing

One of the most unique styles I've ever seen, so it was fascinating seeing how it comes to life!

i¡i

4:40 That's damn funny

be ready for 10000s of 10 secound garbage as videos converted with this style to be recomended to you.

Thanks a million for some nifty behind the scenes Joel Haver! Your animations have the kind of genuinely funny charm only brought through one of my also favorite things in life: improv. This charm in animation I've only really encountered when watching several clips of Home Movies on YouTube, keep up the good work dude! Your comedy gold is incredible :]

I always figured that you just made a drawing and motion tracked it onto a person in real life. Guess i was kinda right

I hope you never change, Joel. You have a great personality.

This thumbnail is a true Diavolo moment

Really appreciate that you shared your way of making video!

people be saying this is easy. i thought the same thing on automotive bodywork. . . .

0:14 I literally have the same monitor?! the EXACT sony monitor with the cruves!?

This guy makes Ebsynth popular again....

oh wow this is amazing joel

I had seen your animations and I never could have imagined that making them is this simple.

I just discovered this channel. It's so good for watching while baked.

looks like ugly america

This was super interesting, cause I could always tell the animation style had.. "something" that made it how it is but I couldn't really understand what. But your explanation about why the animation tends to glitch out made me realize how you focus on keeping still, which adds that kinda unsettling and "awkward" aura to the scenes but in a very entertaining way.

trueadventure man

He is already a Legend

first 25 seconds is how i feel about pokemon sword

Subarashi desu

I hope I find a Joel in my life someday

you are so awesome and fun and a simplistic genius.

This entire thing looks like a fever dream

I don't even know who you are, and yet this is very helpful.

how do you decide what a shot is? is it 24 pictures? or when theres some significant movement?

please do more of the rpg xD that was so fun

I owe you a pint of beer

Lets make animations , hazaaaa!

I see he put it under SKETCH comedy....(badum tsh)

danm thought he was using a Snapchat filter for a while there

i've been wracking my brain trying to figure out where i know those menu sounds from aaaaand it's killing me inside

Definitely an interesting style

Joel Mama lol Okay I quit YouTube.

I think its easier to use cartoon filter, bcs its seems pretty similar to this

So that's how you do those movement glitches too. They're an accidental byproduct. I thought they were done on purpose since they look like video compression glitches. They go quite well with the retro/low quality footage vibe.

Why am I so confused

It reminds me of Aqua Teen for some reason. Or at very least something that would be on Adult Swim.

Thank you so much for giving away this information along with software, it was so helpful and inspired me to use it for a small college project. Really helped make it interesting and made my project fun to do. You really are one of the best creators out there

Thank you so much for this! I love your animations! ❤️

This man is amazing

Great video! Just discovered your channel. Continue the great work. I love you too

I genuinely do appreciate you adding to the toolbox of all animators\

Now that we know now we wait for someone to make a 1 hour movie

Our left hand in this video is horrifying

Thanks for this - wow

jesus someone has free time in covid

sir, your words are both miracle, and a curse

Haven’t seen a single video of yours until now and this was hilarious throughout! Even being in-depth and informative it never stopped being fun to watch. That’s a definite subscribe from me

I came here to appreciate your work. Many thanks, Joel.

This was awesome. Thank you.

WTF???....

I would love to see you do something with an Aunty Donna sketch or Tim & Eric. That would be rad.

Joel your a fucking hero

Y'know, i MIGHT give this a try. might, LATER THOUGH, yes later. totally not gonna procrastinate until i forget about it again.. later.

I have NEVER seen animation done this way. So I am just amazed by what you ended up creating. Like serioulsy...wow.

Me before: “I’m tired of working all week, in a crappy minimum wage job. I’m gonna start making short animated videos on YouTube & try earning money that way. How difficult can it be?” Me after: “I absolutely love my minimum wage job”

4:14 Gus Johnson's in the video!!!!

welp this answers a comment on another video XD

Dude this is freaking awesome

That's way too much work. For me at least 😂

Why did you age yourself 50 years bro

Diavolo's infinite death loop in the thumbnail be like:

Can anyone give me the free equivalent of the thing that got the frame by frame breakdown?

You use the video editor he mentions in the vid (or the free one he mentions in the description) to render the video in a frame by frame. Just puts them all in a folder Then the program he mentions maps the picture to the frames

Wow that's a lot of effort

Gonna try this, thank You kindly ♡

Wait. Let me see if I understood this: you do t have to outline all the frames and the software does it automatically for you unless something wrong happens?

Pssssst! Hey! Over here! Ok, hey, listen, there's no way I have the patience to do this

Reminds me of the animated lord of the rings movie

Jesus Christ! Amazing.

Or Allah, or who ever...

Am I the only one who thought the thumbnail was a bunch of his clones holding shotguns?

That is my EXACT philosophy on art of all forms, it feels good to have a creator I really enjoy say it!

Hehe, knew about this program since its alpha state, but now a lot of people will know about it and use this. :D

what a chill dude

Oh my god so you can’t make them blink or else it turns you into a demon.

Is this rotoscope?

"Ju-ah juju blu, blu blu flu flu!" Joel Haver

just curious - could you do like a 'clean plate' at the start for ebsynth to use? like, a bit at the start with open mouth and eyes and use that to produce the animation? then edit it out after?

1:36, this face killed me

Yeah. It is 3:15

What a cool and fun way to do animation! kinda wanna try it out a little Thanks for showing your process!

Sometimes it can take a lot of courage to share knowledge considering what it took to learn it, thank you.

That’s why they don’t move much.

The key frame is just a Joel pog

Keep up thE animations their unique! Sub!

I understood almost none of this but it was still great. Thank you for being funny *and* putting crazy hard work into. Edit: it.* Hard work into it. This guys tracing and framing one at a time and I’m writing a full sentence.

I know, I shouldn't do it, it's not something that should be done, but I did it anyway, I'm sorry. I have two YouTube accounts, so I liked this video twice. I never do it, really, it's like once a year, maybe more. This one seriously deserved it, so I also subscribed twice. I would have subscribed to this channel anyway with this account, yes, but this is the video that made me subscribe twice. Thanks, Joel. Thanks.

Me: "Wow, he's so good at creating awkward moments" Joel: "Actually they were real, I didn't write anything down so we genuinely didn't know what to say" Ahahah

i was wondering why some scenes where like he was asking a girl out

fuck they were so awkwardp

we should use tolls ;)

amacing

This is tons of work

Lol half million now it's 773k soon enough will get full million 😁
