this is coollllllll
the amount of time i've spent trying to figure out chosen and dark's house is genuinely kinda embarrassing
I even started building rough approximations in the sims 4
all this for what? a few drawings? a fanfiction i probably will never finish????? I DONT EVEN LIKE ARCHITECTURE THAT MUCH???
guys i think i might be a little bit deranged
RANCHER DUO MY BELOVED
im screaming.
jimmy kills skizz in front of tango and just says “dont report it youre my rancher’ AND TANGO DOESNT REPORT IT???? and he proceeds to DEFEND JIMMY AND LOSE THE GAME????
tango is always about playing the game and being fair and if you see old vods of him playing among us if someone kills in front of him theres always a little squeal and the imposter has to work so hard to convince him not to report
but for jimmy?
HE JUST COMPROMISED ALL HIS IRL MORALS ABOUT PLAYING GAMES AND BETRAYED HIS TEAM FOR THE LITTLE BLUE GUY IN THE PARTY HAT CAUSE HE SAID PLEASE
these two, tsk tsk tsk
It's actually pretty clever and logical.
lmaoooo anyway did you ever have like a what the freaky was is called um a hhyperfixation drawer????
HOW HAVE YOU NEVER SEEN AN AAAA BATTERY????? HAVE YOU NEVER PLAYED WITH BATTERY OPERATED DOOHICKEYS DO YOU NOT HAVE WHIMSY AND JOY....... /j
NO I GOT IN TROUBLE FOR PLAYING WITH BATTERY OPERATED TRINKETS WHEN I WAS LIKE AN INFANT . i did have a pee drawer though
okay what if i were to shoot you with a nuclear misslie? could you brush that off?
If I were shot by a big gun honestly I’d just brush it off. Like yeah man, maybe that would hurt you, but I’m the special guy.
Yesterday, I decided to use AvM as an example for "Expression through Body Language in Animation" so I thought; why not share it over here?
Expressing EMOTION through Body Language (Using AvM as an example)
Body language is actually very important in animation. The use of it can help express just about anything! Sometimes it doesn't have to be facial expressions or strong voice acting to make a point about how someone is feeling.
For example, simple movement, like throwing your hands in the air or jumping around, can express joy,
confusion,
and even woe and sadness.
Sometimes, the complete use (or lack) of movement can be very telling of an emotion. In the picture above, Purple is standing completely still at his mother's grave, head cast down in sorrow.
Did it take any line of dialogue or facial expression to make his grief clear? No! All it took was simple body language.
It even helps differentiate one character from another, in terms of how they walk,
(Green skipping dramatically just SCREAMS theatre kid in The Wishing Well short:)
how they pose
("Blue" posing in a way that the REAL Blue most likely wouldn't in The Witch:)
(and Red’s aggressive movements vs Green's cocky ones from The Prank; you can tell by the way Red stomps up to Green that the poor guy is getting mad)
their fighting styles, too; where Red shows his aggressive and impulsive nature in the way he fights, compared to Yellow taking a more defensive stance in 'Green's Channel';
And even how they sit! HOW THEY SIT!
The animation team could've easily had them all sit in the exact same way, but no! They had them sit differently, in ways that give them all more personality.
And later on in the same short, they expressed frustration differently!
Red's pose here being some sort of pout, Blue’s feeling more of a "damn it!" while Yellow is a classic thinking pose; showing that he's possibly coming up with ways to succeed in another try.
And it didn't take a single word, nor a FACE, to get this point across! All it took to convey emotions was how they move! It's actually really interesting to think about. It didn't take voice actors or faces or even character design to show emotions and personality, all it took was a good understanding of body language and movement. Props to the Alan Becker team for that!
Before I go, here are some other examples of how simple movement conveyed emotions in AvM.
Blue's shock turning to horror in the Omelette Short:
Green laughing in Fruit Ninja and Wallpaper:
Orange tiredly rubbing his eyes in Ragdoll to show that "He didn't get enough sleep for this nonsense":
And finally, Red, Green and Orange leaning differently during a race in "Carrot on a Stick"
That's all I have, thank you for your time <3
I genuinely admire how the animation team managed to pull off body language so amazingly! It's so cool how you can express so much about yourself through your movements alone.
thank the lord ive got the band bit i cant skate to save myself
Sorry I’m just crashing out cause what do you mean I’m not a teenage boy in the 2000’s who rides skateboards and is in a band with my best friends?
