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
I pray Who Sees This Will Be Successful In Life , God Has Plan For Anything Trust The Process Never Give Up God Bless Everyone ❤️ 🙏
THANK YOU!!
I love you joel
Poggers Joel. This is super neat thank for sharing
You absolutely deserve it, I've gone back and watched so many of your old videos and they are all top tier.
So... Ebsynth automatically rotoscopes a whole shot using some keyframes as reference? That's... fucking amazing.
Yes! It's such an incredible tool!
That's crazy...
Crazy. Time to make rotoscope anime
PM ME YOUR TEST VIDEOS
My thoughts exactly, excellent software
So this means that he explicitly outlined the nipples on the villain in the Scooby-Doo bit. lmao
Ikr lol
I was 70th like and I’d like to apologize for that lmao
He also does some fantastic croch work!
Not only does he have a good sense of humor and is a talented creator, but he's also a genuinely awesome dude. Thanks for the tutorial.
People who whine about "cheating" should really learn how to create art first and then get back to us when they realize how time consuming it can be with traditional methods. 2 Art degrees here. I love this video. It's crazy informative and not just that, it's a kindness to other artists. I'd love more videos on artistic processes like this.
Surprise surprise, art is a product, not a process.
@@joelmichaelviado1226 definitely not from the perspective of an artist lol
@@joelmichaelviado1226 it's both , goofy
@@joelmichaelviado1226 In the eyes of the artist, it is both the process and the product. In the perspective of the consumers, it's just the product. It is very rare these days that patrons pay you for anything you are yet to create. The only ones that do those are museums and galleries, and most of the time, only for established artists who can sell anything due to their names. Artists outside that category are starving, so they'd have to keep grinding to produce art for tge consumers to earn a living. I'm talking digital artists, animators, mangaka, portrait artists, etc.
I heard that the clip from take on me was rotoscoped and it was the most expensive and time consuming thing ever for the group
He animated himself animating himself, the madman.
yeah. That's the part that got me.. i was like thinking this is some inception type ish. haha love it.
Complete Mad lad
I thought the glitches were on purpose lol they really do add too it somehow. Kinda makes everything feel off and even more like an awkward fever dream.
They’re definitely kept on purpose! I always make sure to keep it just glitchy enough!
Same here, I really like it too because it just really fits with the old vhs type of animation style with weird glitches as the tape corrodes and ages.
@@Joel-Haver The glitches and the VHS feeling are some of the things that make your videos great, good job!
@@Joel-Haver Is it possible to use this on a live facecam given the right circumstances? I always wanted to try Vtubing but making the avatar look stupid and unrefined unlike the 3d anime models everyone uses. Love the vids btw.

I wonder if he has a similar sentiment to how ai is nowadays where you dont even need to do anything yourself whatsoever. Is that still a cheat code or has it crossed the line
All jokes aside, Joel's point about art being accessible and fun is such an important lesson for creative-types.
definitely, i really loved what he had to say at the end

Wtf not only does Joel have some of the best videos in existence, this has got to be one of, if not the, best tutorial ever. It’s fun, educational and creative af.

Lmao this is totally it Hahaha
HAHAHAHA TRUE
exactly
Yeah, it's just enough that you can tell it's not meant to be happening, but not so much that it's over the top and annoying. There's a lot of things like that in art.
It sounds stupid but its the appeal and absolutely true
To be honest i never realized how much work it was to make these videos, i thought it was just a camera effect but this is by hand!? incredible.
This is rotoscoping for a new generation. holy mackerel, If someone makes a movie with this style, you better get a special thanks in the credits, man.
Its crazy that he burned an actual village for the plot point in his last RPG video
Holly shit the burned village was AI assisted rotoscoped! the absolute madman!
how else will he be able to trace and draw the burning flames without doing so, huh?

@@baconknightproductions8297 the best thing i can think of for the long way is the incredible bonus features on richard linklaters movie "walking life". the movie itself is awesome so maybe watch it first and then to see some truly amazing stuff with it watch "a scanner darkly". its keanu reeves, woody harrelson, robert downey jr and wynona ryder. so yeah... again, the movie itself is just next level. its richard linklater again and it has some great special features but im 99% sure it was invented by the richard and the waking life crew. theyre both great anyway. and with a scanner darkly sometimes i lose the fact its animated. its really neat what they do.
ikr, im ready

Joel is the kind of friend who a talented and creative introvert would wish to hang out with while working on projects like these. He's an awesome guy!
Never have a I been so interested in a man talking about how he animates for 7 minutes, his genuine awkward but real voice really draws my attention and makes me smile, every youtuber knows what its like to have a "recording voice" but this guy just doesn't care, he just speaks in his most genuine tone, and I whole-heartedly respect that.

"All technology is a cheat code." -Joel Haver, 2021
That's a great quote
He's so right. Lights are a cheat code for the night/darkness. Technology!
Well, akchually technology is more like a pharmakon, but I still agree with Joel. Thank you Joel (i love you)(like fo real bro)(don't call me though)
I would agree with the fact that the awkwardness is key to your videos' entertainment value... specifically those pauses, gives that perfect amount of "oh, this is off" to be weirdly enjoyable, fantastic job!
I come here from time to time only for " joujou bluu bluu fluu fluue".
This is some meta behind-the-scenes content

Gotta take into account that the tool don't matter if you don't know how to use them. If anything it will enrich the community and help drive the art form forward enough to make the tools more effective and whatnot.
This is how good art can be when it's not done for capital.
i think rotoscope animation is really such an underrated style. depending on the context its used in it can either emphasize in the moment awkwardness like joel said, or complex movement like this one music video i saw. plus if you do it by hand it can probably teach you a few things about animating movement on your own
this is why I prefer Rotoscoping. The only limitation is how much work you’re willing to put into the product. Whereas with CGI and Mocap you absolutely are limited by the computers abilities.
3 o'clock is a nostalgic time. Reminds me of getting out of school.
This is the best KZhead tutorial on earth.

Glad to see you here! :)

"Art should be in the hands of everyone, you know, we shouldn't have to break our backs and our wallets and waste our lives to make it." Fuckin quote of the year right there
Might be a little early to make a claim like that, Joel has 11 more months to spread his wisdom.
ALSO it allows talented artists to make MORE art because it takes them less time to complete each project. Their time is spent on artistic decisions rather than labour.
5:41 Yep
"Art should be in the hands of everyone, and we shouldn't have to break our backs and our wallets and waste our lives to make it." Subbed. I was gonna anyways, but that kind of sentiment means a fan for life. Thank you, Joel.
This video is elite!! You’re such a legend for this video dude! I love your content 🔥
he does it with a mouse he does it with a mouse he's too powerful
And that mouse's name is Marshall
I've drawn and sometimes animated digitally with a mouse my entire life and only as I got older did I realize that everyone thinks that's weird. If that's all you use you get used to it, it can be as easy as drawing by hand, sometimes to me it feels easier. But of course you can never get as much detail as you could if you were using like a tablet or something, like I don't know if there's a pressure sensitive drawing mouse or something... Actually I'm gonna look that up.
Well he can't do it with Marshall the Rat because he's a criminal.
@@Squishito A pressure sensitive mouse sounds like something that should exist but I'm not sure it does. Drawing with a mouse hurts my brain because I'm left handed for writing/drawing, but right handed for mousing. So drawing with a mouse feels like I'm using the wrong hand to draw, even though it feels way worse to mouse draw with my left.
Is the Mouses name Marshal ?
Petition to give this style a nickname like "Haver's Technique" or something to give credit where credit is due
Thank the guys/gals at Ebsynth, Haha! they probably worked their ass off to make this type of program to work!
@@snazzle9764 Bang on!

@@Schyferyel Love it :D
Well, it's called rotoscoping. It's neat and it's cool he's kind of revived it, but it has a history that reaches back. One of my favorite uses of it was in Adult Swim's *Dream Corp LLC*
Thank you for making such wonderful art. The awkwardness and realness is fantastic. Well done on the much deserved subs.
Dude, please never get rid of the glitches. Its part of what makes the videos what they are

"Art should be in the hands of everyone and we shouldn't have to break backs and wallets and waste our lives to make it." - Joel Haver, 2021
So much wisdom at such a young age. Joel is the hero we need but don't deserve.
This should replace every "inspirational" quote about art
Joel really is what KZhead needs more of, I applaud his hard work and dedication to fun. Also his voice is just amazing!
A man of the people!
@@formerstrangers1939 Right? His voice is just soothing. No homo, but it makes my heart happy every time I hear it.
"Art should be in the hands of everyone, and we shouldn't have to break our backs and our wallets and waste our lives to make it."
This reminds me of that "but DJs aren't real musicians, they're technicians at best" bs
Some people seriously think that music should be free since "it is a hobby, not a job" but do they seriously think many people would want to make music then, let alone have the financial capacity to?
@@DenSvartaStjarnan He's talking about making creativity tools accessible to *creators* and the fact that everyone can be creative. It's the *consumers'* responsibility to compensate the creators of art and music they enjoy.
@@DenSvartaStjarnan Some people do think that. And they are absolutely asshats. But more in line with Joels theorem for art. Doesn't music exist to be heard? And if you are someone who dreams of creating music, in some form, by some method. Then shouldn't the barrier to entry be as low as we can make it? The argument is hardly that art should be devalued to the point it should be free, but more that the world should be a place full of art. And if you are someone who wants to create art (for profit, or pleasure, or acclaim, etc) then you should be able to do so.
Love the video. Really appreciated the sun going down while you did your monologue about art being accessible. *Applauds*
first time seeing your work. first time hearing anything about Ebsynth. am majorly happy about both. much love keep up the good work. two years after posting still finding new people to impress with this.
This has a bob ross tier purity to it. Strait forward. With an honest script and a pleasant demeanor

When he showed that he highlighted the still frame I really thought that he was going to do that for every single frame. Which is what does happen. Just the program does it for him. I think that encapsulates the point he was talking about because fuuuuuuuck doing that lol
100%
@@ohnoitsu1 I mean, folks used to do that (although to be fair, they had teams of animators to do it). It was called rotoscoping. The really funny thing is, one of the big uses was as a cost-savings measure to get decent animation for really complicated motion. Apparently it saved so much time (and therefore production costs) in animation for complicated stuff that the savings outweighed the cost of hiring some no-name actors and filming them dancing or fighting or whatever. It also was used sometimes for stylistic effect, like the music video for "Take on Me".
@@Maddbox11235 Good to know. Cheers
As someone who created his first animation in Macromedia Flash using Poser I really appreciate this look behind the curtain. Always incredible to see the effort that is required for even a 10 second clip. Keep up your great work, I really like it!
Jesus Christ the effort that went into this video... Explaining the process whilst putting in the very techniques into the video, keeping the character going, the explanation going, while also finding a way to as an editor and creator have fun with it. Letting the video become somewhat meta. It's fun to see and kinda rubs up against humor for me. It can really give a glimpse into the mind of the creator to see the levels of effort behind a given project, and what little tidbits get hidden in-between the metaphorical lines. This video is weirdly genius even for being a behind the scenes kind of video. Like how the animated person is doing the work over a typically real person. That's just... Funny to me on a level I can't quite put into words.
Dude this is pretty rare, for a creator to be praised for a unique style and everyone be asking how do you do it and then just come right out and explain exactly how, give away all the "secret sauce," and literally tell people it's okay to copy exactly their style. It's just so cool and it shows you're not insecure in your own ability to continue to innovate, evolve, and grow, and that empowering others is more important to you than trying to hold onto some gold nugget of the artistic realm that you now have ownership over. Super dope dude.
So much wisdom at such a young age. Joel is the hero we need but don't deserve.
Although I totally agree, it still has some insignificant negative impact on his work. Take some of the secret fastfood recipes. People would be able to copy and recreate them, which in itself doesn't really have any impact on the flavour of these secret recipes, in fact, it's the opposite. Giving people the opportunity to improve, upgrade, alter art styles through inspiration such as this channel, will make the "flavour" significantly better as we will be getting more "recipes" of such type, where some may be potentially far more "tasty". But, the insignificant negative impact is that it as a result makes his work less unique. Now, in my opinion, I like when the stuff I watch is unique. I enjoy a wide disparity between the kinds of content that gets recommended to me. Unfortunately, this is difficult to do when so many people spam the same things. I made the mistake with reddit-reading videos. I fixed my recommended now, but for a few weeks it was pretty annoying. The risk of poor-quality content becomes greater the more people try it, which as a result makes it harder to find the best of the best creators out there. edit: I totally support what he did, but this is rather my individualistic preference. I get that some people may like seeing more content like his, but I personally prefer my content "concentrated" rather than "watered-down".
@@TechSupportDave I agree. However, you miss the point in what will *ALWAYS* make Joel's animations superior to anything that may come out similar to it: him, Joel. He has such a unique way in how he carries himself and talks that can never be imitated or copied. I watch his animations not just for the cool style of the animations, but for the characters he creates.
@@TechSupportDave you like your content not watered down and concentrated so that a variety of single creator's have different styles. But by doing that your missing out ALOT of fun shit people make that is similar dude. The only insignificant impact that has happened is that you limit yourself to feeding through a straw While as everyone else has their helpings by the spoon full. Because You won't broaden out what you watch. You've restricted yourself into a corner. Joel on the other hand is the opposite. By revealing his secrets he's shown that he's not afraid of what other people make. He's strongly confident that his content alone is more then just an arstyle. By sharing his secrets he improves and encourages other KZheadrs to be creative and to give them the spark so that their content might be able to be "concentrated" Aswell It sure as shit is better then hoarding his techniques so no one learns how to improve
@@pingaspearce9403 [TL;DR at the bottom] I disagree with this one part. I do not watch youtube enough to feel the necessity to NOT feed myself through a straw (Though I wouldn't call it that). Therefore, I prefer to watch only the things that I love the most. My youtube experience would become significantly worse if I were to suddenly start watching everything that gets recommended to me. For one, it would mess up my recommended as I previously mentioned. Two, I'd be wasting a lot of time on content that I do not enjoy, or do not enjoy as much. This is something that I did when I was younger. I did not enjoy the amount of videos I'd abandon half-way. It was not only unhealthy watching things I don't enjoy, but it was also unhealthy how much time I actually spent on youtube. Just to clarify, it's not that i'm not broadening my horizons. I have simply stopped letting myself get clickbaited. This means, 99% of the time I stay watching content that I enjoy the most. That 1% being that risk of wasted time. That's a balance that I'm fine with, as it means that for every 100 videos watched, there's one video that I watch that I don't know I'll like. And, that 1 video IS usually a video that I'll like. Why? Because it's usually a video that truly grabs my interest and perfectly appeals to my preferences. In fact, these proportions are perfect in my case, because there's also a 1% chance that I'll stop watching a type of content or creator. So the things I watch are perpetually changing. I probably wouldn't even call it a "Straw", but rather just a methodical approach that completely satisfies me. There will always be amazing content creators that I won't know about. Why would I bother going out of my way to find them all when it's impossible in the first place? Why would I even want more if I'm already watching content that I wholly enjoy? I quite frankly don't see the point if I don't have the capacity to regularly watch them all in the first place. This isn't pokemon. Maybe to you it is if you spend your entire days on youtube, but other people are often different. I can't spend my days searching through youtube for new things, and I don't know why I'd want to if I'm enjoying watching the things i'm enjoying. TL;DR: I'm not feeding myself through a straw and who are you to tell me how I should use youtube? I'm already watching content that's as enjoyable as it can get for me, if you have a problem with that then you're simply an asshole. --------------------------------------------------------------- Won't be bothering to reply any further as I'm anticipating people to purposefully misunderstand me, as you already partially did but there's no point pointing it out now.
I'm getting the feeling Joel has yet to grasp that he's changing the whole game.
You are a comedic genius and a huge inspiration to me in so many ways. Thank you for sharing this knowledge! I can't wait to get started on a project of my own!!!
Thanks for making this, Joel! It is nice to have a look at your creative process.
I love this anti-gatekeeping sentiment.
Yep, I like how he just shares his technique with everyone
Bit of a shame that we still have some self-appointed gatekeepers hassling creators like Goat-on-a-stick for "ripping off" Joel's style despite this. :/ Weird how people latch on to a new thing and then try to jealously guard it from everyone else.
And now the whole style is named after him. The joel haver animation style
@@sixstringedthing Hmm, checked out goat on a stick. Was a bit surprised that it wasn't just the style but the content too. NPC perspective and all that. Gotta say, if I was gonna use the style myself (and I'm all for that - it opens up whole new worlds to people) I don't think I'd also copy the ideas. But hey, I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Not always a good thing though.

I already love all your videos, but this video really made me love you as a person. You're one of my favorite content creators and it's great to know how genuine you are. Thanks for your work
I've been watching your videos all day and just googled how you make the animation. I didn't expect you to be the one to explain it. Thank you so much!
incredible
Incredible indeed, Berd. Incredible indeed

Fair play for putting your method out there. Lots of people wouldn't have.
It's a gamble. You either have your own style and make money from it. Or someone steals your aesthetics and makes something better than you. Obviously, it's hard to make something better than this dude's trilogy. But I'm speaking general terms. Why secret cooking recipes exist.
In this case I feel like it's safe from being stolen willy nilly cause it takes so much time and effort.
Joel's goal is to encourage people to just create, and make stuff, so he's not worried about revealing "secrets"
True and it could just further boost him cuz he’s the OG and word will get around
That's why Joel is king. He's just too humble, lovable, and hilarious.
Thank you so much for this! I am a theatre actor and this is an amazing tool that I think I'm going to play around with it. I've yet to venture much into film or animation, but this style seems like a great way to get my feet wet. You videos are hilarious. Keep up the great ART!
I never really noticed that your characters didn't blink, but so amazing how expressive your animations are.
Jesus thank god we still have creators with integrity and who are willing to share how they do things. Who instead of making a brand, make a community. Love the animations and this comment section dude.
Funny thing is, at the same time his brand was also strengthened. Everyone refers to this now as "Joel Haver style animation".
@@tamasmuszbek yeahh, I'd say it's making a community while also making a brand
Instead of making a brand make a community ❤️
@@tamasmuszbek I saw his videos a few months back, and then I had to look for it. I love the unique asthetics of them.
“I’m just going to show you how to do a random shot.” Proceeds to show us how he did that exact shot.
Animationception
These sketches are so funny and a lot of that is all the animation and style, it really adds to it.
You put a ton of work into your videos. This breakdown was amazing. Respect.
This is Joel Haver. He believes that art does not belong to one person, and should be shared with everyone, so he shares his entire art style rather than hoard it for himself. Be more like Joel Haver.
I disagree. What he did was very selfless and kind, but I believe if someone discovers, practices and hones their own art style, they shouldn't feel obligated to reveal to the world exactly how to replicate it. A style is what makes an artist unique, so I can completely understand those who are opposed to sharing their process.
@@sloppyphart7879 I agree with what youre saying but I think that they just said “be more like Joel haver” for the sake of quoting a meme
Joel haver? More like Joel giver
@@niedzisiaj6645 this is a special and specific style of rotoscoping animation that Joel discovered. That's what I'm saying.
@@sloppyphart7879 There's more to uniqueness than just style. Joel has built a whole world of characters at this point that are specifically his.
They may copy how he animates, but *NONE* can ever be in par with his natural comedic acting !!!
Same comment I made a minute ago))
@@razor23Ukraine what?
I feel like the method can be 'copied' which Joel really seems to encourage, without his _style_ of animation being copied, which no one could do as well anyway :)
the speech pattern and timing is like 90% of the appeal to me
Yeah the animation is like the icing on a cake: it’s nice and I like it a lot but I enjoy a full cake way more than just the icing by itself.
HOLY CRAP. So it *is* rotoscoping! I thought you had some really sophisticated filter or something. Damn, my respect for you has INCREASED a lot.
"it should make it a little more fun, ahm, ushoo shoe bluebloo" -Joel Haver, 2021
wow, he gave himself a cartoon mustache, then went back and gave his real self a real mustache, that's dedication
“Art should be in the hands of everyone” Such true words.
Not everyone can be a great artist but an artist can come from anywhere.
You: giving money to ethots
This is crazy! Amazing tutorial and thank you for sharing a part of your talent to the world!
Joel, you have the mind in the right place, my friend. Congrats for your excellent work.
The world will remember you for this selfless gesture. Sharing information and encouraging others to utilize these tools and your process to foster their own creativity. 👍
No way the mandem nem is here
Well said!
hereeee we go
I was actually wondering how he made these videos for weeks. It's a nice and simple way to make animations. Always wanted to make one, but I don't have much skill so this is great.
"Art should be in the hands of everyone, and we shouldn't have to break our backs and our wallets and waste our lifes to make it." I love that statement.
@@Jukestar learn an instrument and write lyrics man you got it
@@Jukestar Dude, I know what you mean. From distractions; to being lazy, unmotivated, depressed, or just not enough damn time to sit down and write something; there are so many things stoping people from getting their creativity out there! A computer brain interface is kinda scary, but if it let me think, build, and edit with my brain. I wouldn’t care if it sucked the soul right out of me lol.
@@Jukestar I'd get a DAW, I think Ableton has a free version. It's overwhelming at first, but once you understand what does what you can put some brain into actual sounds.
That's why I use torrents
@@azca. For real lol. You think I PAID for Zbrush and FL Studio?
I like your stance on making art accessible, Joel Haver
