Paper Animations Jun-Dec 2020

Some paper animations made during the production of THROAT NOTES • THROAT NOTES
I was giving people drawings as a Patreon benefit to fund my animating but then the drawings turned into the frames of more animations. If you sit still too long everything else starts moving

@@gruckusgrackus5815 Of course! But I didn't mean it to come across like that. (tl;dr at the end) I was just complimenting the smoothness that Felix can get with his paper animations, comparing them to a time-honored gem of animation, the Thief and the Cobbler. It was taken over by a different group of animators part way through its development. As a result, parts of the Miramax release had animation that wasn't up to par with the original work by Richard Williams (same guy who made Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but this was his passion project) and wasn't really "finished" up to par in terms of animation quality. It's a rare gift to be able to make such complicated paper animation look so smooth. While Disney was making Aladdin on computer, the original work for the Thief was illustrated all on paper (It took over 30 years of grunt-work before the movie saw the light of day! Paper animation is hard!). tl;dr: Felix has that skill comparable to the old greats of the animation industry, as you can clearly see. If he wanted, he could finish the Thief and the Cobbler just as brilliantly as the original animation (probably even better!), because he has that skill. That's all I was saying. If you enjoy how great Felix's animation is, I recommend checking out ""The Recobbled Cut" of The Thief and The Cobbler on KZread. It's chock full of beautifully smooth animation, just like Felix's.

Everytime I get recommended this channel (which is every time he posts), I forget who it is, think the art is similar to something I've seen before, and then ALL the trips that he has ever made hit me at once when I see that I'm already subscribed. Every. Single. Time. I love it, do it again.
the fact that these were made during and possibly delayed throat notes makes me happy, you creativity flowin and you used it when you could.
I absolutely adore the sound effects in all of the animations
1:13 minutes of a masterclass that is better than the majority of the animation schools worldwide.
Hello Felix. I don’t know how often you read comments, but I just want you to know that watching your animations always brightens my day. Thank you for everything you do!
I would have never imagined to see such crazy artwork but what I think the sound design makes it at least half times better
I absolutely love the way that the funky sounds are assigned to different parts of the animation
I genuinely think you are my favorite artist/creator thank you for literal years of entertainment and art
Man is so powerful that his drawings make sounds
The amount of talent and mostly patience in making this is just- *chef kiss*
This amazing dude inspired me to get back into drawing
glad to be early and witnessing this.
You can't explain what you are seeing with his animations. You only understand by seeing it.
This feels like a freeze frame in a ghibli movie on crack
god your art is so cool i remember watching your stuff and it intensely inspiring me to go into the animation field (didnt happen) i really truly wish creativity was valued and we saw more intricate and creative animation like yours in the world
Felix’s animations have one of the only styles that I can watch for hours, regardless of the story, and be 100% engaged until the very end; it’s just so wild! There are very few things that do that for me, so stuff like this makes me super happy.
I love the way they loop so seamlessly.
Still unsettling and dreamlike Just how I came to love them
This madman saw a bunch of paper and said ''alright I'm making perfectly looped living drawings'' beautiful, as always Felix
sometimes im sad that i dont live in the age of artistic masters then i remember FELIX
You are a crazy man with weird ideas and your animations doesn't have a context. And that's why i freaking love you!!!
BRO THE ONE AT 0:12 IS SO COOL WITH THE INCREASING ELEMENTS TO THE SOUND DESIGN I LOVE IT
