Gotta love when a cartoon character plays an epic solo, full of tom runs and cymbals, on a three piece set with only a hihat.

Sakamichi no Apollon (Kids on the Slope) was directed by Shinichiro Watanabe, best known for his work directing Cowboy Bebop. he himself is a huge music fan and brought in Yoko Kanno (talented musician and composer of Cowboy Bebop soundtrack amongst many others) to work on the production of Sakamichi no Apollon. they wanted to get the animation of playing the instruments right, so the old animating trick of filming live session players and tracing the playback of their movements, named rotoscoping, was heavily employed during the production of the anime.

Rest in Peace, Neil Peart. So good, not even professionals could animate him correctly

Thank you for the WWAP, I've seen so many videos harping on un-realistic playing of instruments where they don't recreate what's actually happening, they just point out the flaws. This made it a lot more fun to watch. It's also funny that the WWAP almost always sounds like what someone who just sits down at a kit with no experience plays. Great work!

I'm an animator, however I have zero knowledge in music experience, so seeing your WWAP treatment made me laugh. In class I was taught I have to do research and gather references so the fictional world feels realistic in the animation. So that also means if an instrument is being played and seen in the animation, I'm sure the Professors would be extra picky in that part to make sure the instruments drawn on screen would match in real life as well. I do think the animators, depending on the budget and deadline, may have been stretched for time for the bad ones, while the good animation with music matching up means the animator took the extra time to match everything frame by frame. I would have done the rotoscope technique, like you said where they may have recorded the drummer and then went frame by frame in a video and tried to replicate it in the animation frame by frame to keep it as accurate as possible. It was a funny video and I enjoyed it, plus I learned a lot from you.

@paolaanimator

@@bubba200874426 There are newer ways with digital animation technology, for example I can make a rig for a 2D character, and reuse certain body parts, only limit is that it is more restricted with movements (no exaggerated cartoon poses like stretchy arms) but it does help save a lot of time in 2D animation. Plus if done right 2D puppet rig can also have some hand drawn animation combined, and it has great results. In TV shows, there are hundreds of different body parts that can be switched in-between so the animation and acting of the characters looks more natural, and this helps save time in that the animator can stay in proportion, not having to redraw the entire character over and over, etc. There's even an automatic lip syncing technology, where you can upload an audio of someone voice acting and the computer will automatically have the mouth rig match up with the audio. Lip syncing manually is time consuming, so with this new technology, what usually took hours becomes a few seconds to set up, then go through the animation and fix any mouth poses to match up with voice acting if some mouth poses doesn't match up, but it saves time as well. I use Adobe Animate, I uses these techniques and they helped a lot to submit the animation by the deadline, it was a while ago since I did 2D animation. For 3D animation, since I am into 3D animation and I want to be a 3D animator, the best method would be a motion capture suit. Although these suits aren't cheap, in the long run they save so much time. An actor wears the suit and the acting gets recorded, then the animation data can be uploaded into a 3D model and just some tweaking to improve the animation. So musicians can also wear this motion capture suit and it would capture all of the movements. I got to use the motion capture suit and it was a game changer in terms of saving time for 3D animation. For these programs, I used Maya for 3D modeling and making a rig, and Motionbuilder for motion capture animation data that can be transferred to programs like Maya. I also love Blender, great free 3D software, but Maya, Motionbuilder, and other 3D software are considered industry standard. These are some of the newer animation techniques in the digital age that helps save lots of time in production. As much as I love hand drawn animation (I grew up with Disney movies), in 2022 where everything is more fast paced, especially with rise of social media, the newer animation techniques helps to save time. With rotoscoping digitally, you can trace over video footage but it takes a while. I hope my comment helps out! Yeah, there are definitely time saving methods in digital animation, both 2D and 3D, they can take some time to set up but once it's set up, it saves a ton of time in the long run. I learned many of these techniques as a college animation major, I'm graduating this May so I just wanted to share some of my knowledge.

A thing about animation production. While the voices will be recorded off the script, the later effects like music and sound effects are added MUCH later, after the animation is already done. Animators generally aren't animating to match a specific soundtrack. To top that off, a small change in an edit (for time or to land a joke) will completely destroy any synchronising of sound. You can often see this in live action medical dramas where you will see a heart monitor go in and out of sync with the heartbeat sounds between angles.

Think it's a bit strange that metalocalypse isn't perfectly animated in the instrument sequences (I've watched the entire show and am a musician, so I know what I'm talking about) since the show was made almost exclusively by musicians.

Kids on the slope quite obviously rotoed the drummer and pianist. The entire animation principle of anime is to use as few frames as possible, so when things look smooth it's very likely rotoscoped. Here it was decently obviously as all the movements had more frames than the rest of the anime combined. That and it was very accurate drumming, as well as the piano playing was on point.

Fun Fact: The reason why the animation in Kids on the Slope was so spot on was because is used Rotoscope animation

Dude metalocolypse was one of the greatest shows ever mainly for the OST and the fact that it was written and animated by amazing musicians

It is SO hard to animate instruments, almost any, and drums are among the most difficult.

Recently I analyzed my time in the fall of '98 - Spring '00 time of being part of a high school marching band. So 2 years worth of concert percussion and in the marching band's auxiliary section. I did only concert band after that for another 2 years, but that isn't entirely relevant. I went from clarinet and into a 32-key 2.5-octave glockenspiel. The band director showed me the basic matched method to hold my mallets... and that was it. He left me to my own and I had to learn from sight what the snares did anytime I saw percussion notations on my sheet music. So, 20 years later, I find I miss playing the glock and went on a deep dive to buy one and every glock kit I searched, also comes with a practice drum pad and drum sticks. So it's at this point I realized - my old band director did not really know how to teach intermediate band glock players, because I think I only had 2 music pieces specifically for glock and/or xylophone. He mostly gave me oboe or flute music to play off of. So my time in band, I felt like it was too easy to play, since the only drum skill I needed to master was the bounce roll and the band director never gave me sheet music that required 4 mallets (which I begged for). So here's my question: Would it be possible to see a few videos here at some point where we can see drum rudiments the keyboard percussion (glock/bells, xylophone, marimba...) are most likely to use?

This is top tier original content. Well done.

thats really insane how much detail you put into this stuff

What bugs me even more than the animation of the actual playing is most of the setups. I can forgive if you don't animate all the strokes 100% correctly, but at least google a picture or two of a drum set for a reference when you draw them. :D One that hurt my brain most was the one crash over the snare in the topside view of the Metalocalypse kit that would be utterly unplayable and would clearly be buried in your forehead if the player would sit straight. Considering that the show is about the band and not just some random bit in Calliou...

Pixar has a program that can match animation to music perfectly, they used it for the movie Soul and created it for the piano but it can be used for any animation or instrument. Basically the instruments play themselves accurately to the written notes then the animators match the character to the instrument, even the tendons from the fingers under the skin move accurately.

It's sometimes pretty amazing the attention to detail that animes sometimes possess, I remember an opening for one that came out around a decade ago where one of the main characters was playing piano and iirc I remember it was animated very accurately to how the piece would have been played. I also seem to remember some I've watched in which the guitar playing was also very accurate. It's really awesome to spot the few animations where the playing was animated accurately I'll have to see if any I've watched have good drum scenes

FWIW the wwap process would be so much faster in logic studio, since you can import video files. Then it's the same process but you can just use a drum kit audio unit to put the notes in via a single MIDI track, rather than importing several channels of individual wav file hits. You can also have a bpm clock, which you can match to the video's original audio (logic has a bpm counter tool), so you can see the grid of beats and measures easily at the same time as keeping an eye on the minutes, seconds and individual video frames. Everything can be matched even down to the sample level if you want to get needlessly perfect (48.8Khz is the best audio sample rate for lining up with common frame rates, but I don't remember the math or the process for syncing with frame rates in logic, I use cubase these days... but I think that advanced microscopic stuff is more for high end scoring or foley purposes anyway, and for the initial production; in fact exactly the kind of tool ideal for lining up music to animations when making scenes like these, go figure. Ofc the whole production team needs to be on the same page though, which you can see in the family guy clip and the opposite in the caillou clip - which should've lost a point and been F tier just for being such an awful show at its core, but I digress). TL;DR even just being able to match MIDI drums on one channel to video would make the wwap process easier and more streamlined. And the ability to match the project grid bpm to the original audio for constant reference when inputting the MIDI. There's no worrying about visually lining up the phase of every single waveform transient, etc. More impressive that it was done in final cut though, props.

Definitely would like a part2 to this video

Wow. XD

Thank you for this!

First video I've seen from you. You got my like for the concept, But got my Sub for having Brave Little Toaster in the intro.

imo simpsons and athf shouldve definitely been switched around. the rhythms may not have been perfectly accurate and the movement around the kit may be lacking but with a complex solo like that i think they did a pretty decent job and it looks a hell of a lot more believable than bart hitting random drums and cymbals in a dirt-simple drum beat even if the rhythm is mostly there

Well I love when you give a good over look of cartoons with drumming in it to what you see and hear. I would like for you to do this with the cartoons like the Flintstones and Josie and the pussy cats just to name few. But there are lots of cartoons out there so do part 2 and 3 with the list add it on from part 1!!

this was way more fascinating than i care to admit

That Kids On The Slope drum kit is animated very beautifully. I love the tom mount!

For Metalocalypse, I know there are a lot of shots of Pickles where it's just a looping animation (a majority of their concert scenes really). But one I would suggest is in Tributeklok, where he doesn't even have a full drumset but you can hear a normal arrangement.

I noticed this on Family Guy in an episode guest-starring Heart ("Peter and the Beanstalk") that the drums were spot on. Of course they have the $$ to get this level of detail, but props to them for putting in the effort.

Family guy always tries to have the instrument as close as possible

holy smokes that WWAP on Caillou made me spit up my coffee

Just liked, subscribed, and now commented! Let the video begin!

I feel those asking for at least competent, realistic drumming animations that mostly sync up with the music, even if it's not perfect (like the 12 oz mouse clip) are being fair and reasonable. Although, those looking for ABSOLUTE perfection for something this complicated and precise to animate (like some of the videos I've seen talking about this) are being unfair and unrealistic. Like the people criticising that drumming scene in Hop with ONE shot that doesn't sync up, despite the rest of the scene being mostly dead on.

I always liked the drum aninmation in "K-On!" and "The Melanchily of Haruhu suzumiya" but the second one is NOT up with the Music being played.

I literally scrolled down the comments just to see how long it would take before someone mentioned K-ON! Lol. Yeah, he should definitely do a scene from that one in Part 2.

@@lanceolson5988 To be fair, even if it’s off, it’s established that the girls are not very good musicians. All except Mio and possibly Azusa care more about tea time or a day of “debauchery” that honing their musical skills.

@@skeetermania3202 I know, but we're not talking about the girls' talent. We're talking about if the animators drew Ritsu hitting a snare when actually a tom is being played in the audio.

I don't know why this is so funny to me, but i am grateful you are doing it

Bro... You spoke to my soul!!

For some reason, all of my musician friends and myself had this collective mistaken memory that Neil Peart was dead. We didn't learn he was actually alive until the Aqua Teen movie came out. It was rough when he finally bit it for real. The injoke that "yo, Peart is alive" whenever a Rush song came up was no longer funny.

Did the animation frame rate limit the accuracy?

It shouldn’t…

The caillou clip needs crickets at the end, followed by a distant "you suuuck"

kids on the slope, when he was playing floor tom, it sounded like he was playing snare around the part with the rim ticks. Look at the part around the 14 minute mark of the kids on the slope video and around the 13 minute mark of the EMC video.

In most metal drum kits, there's usually a hi hat on both the left and the right

The accurate Caillou raising his sticks after the performance fucking SENDS ME.
