Jumpstyle - animation

What happens when a DJ and a stick animator decide to do something? This happens :P

This is the story of a dude who likes hip-hop, but something changes his opinion. Hope you enjoy and see something interesting :3

Behold the power of that which is yet unborn! For the swirling images that flow forth from the Chrysalis are only a shadow of the sleeper's true power.

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

It's just a lame copy off Jumpstyle. It's much older :P
Actually we're fighting Jumpstyle VS R&B... I think I'll do episodes.

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

What's the point in linking to the same flashy again? neutral

The "What's R&B?" was ironic, I think.
Besides, originally, it stood for "Rhythm and Blues".
Now, it doesn't stand for anything worth speaking of smile
"R'n'B sucks": check out Chris Rock's "Champagne"
(the uncensored MP3 is better than the YT video)

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

"Rhythm & beat" would be a little redundant... smile

There's nothing wrong with the "actual" R&B.
The "contemporary"R&B is what you don't like.
I don't like any of that either (except for a few... exceptions).
"I mean, there's a couple of people that can flow, but for the most part, the genre sucks"

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

As you wish... Tell you what: if you make a video that shows all of Oni's characters jumpstyling in sync (in Oni's environment or in other places), I'll kiss you on the nose.

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

If you were a girl I'd accept, but here's something - I've already started doing an Oni stick movie with sticks represending our Oni people fighting on the Syndicate Mountain Compound. I can't draw the actual Oni characters frame-by-frame in full-body animations, what I can is what I said I did, or animate the 3d characters which I've done... I'm working hard on those jumpstyle movies for rnbsucks.com right now but I'll finish an Oni stick movie eventually ;P

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

what I can is what I said I did, or animate the 3d characters which I've done...

I was thinking of the latter: the former is harder because the characters will have distinctive features like hair, armor, whatever... and adding those to stick figures would be a pain.
In either case, I assume you can make the animations for one character and then apply them to all the others (that's more obvious in 3D). If everybody's in sync, the amount of work is just proportional to the variety of the jumpstyling.

I'll kiss you on the nose.

That's a quote from the Hercules cartoon (which I haven't seen):

Daedalus: Behold, the fundamental machine: the lever. Sublimely simple. Say it with me.
Hercules: I got it.
Daedalus: No, say lever! Never mind. Here's a working model. As my close personal friend Archimedes once said, "Give me a lever long enough, a fulcrum high enough, a place to stand, and I'll kiss you on the nose." He was a strange man.

I'm a strange man smile

Re: Jumpstyle - animation

Well that short 1 minute jumpstyle loop which (again) you can see on rnbsucks.com took me looooong hours, what I've done so far on my "Oni: Daodan Stickalys" project are colorful sticks with anime hairs that look more or less like Konoko, Muro, Griffin, firys, cops...

How many times do you want me to watch that flashy? Not that I didn't like it, but... smile
I didn't say the jumpstyling anims would be easy to do. Maybe easier in 3D though...
(a few basic arm and leg movements, which you can then combine in many ways)

Reminds me of Black Shades, by the guy who did Lugaru
And Lugaru 2 will have multiplayer? Now that's interesting...

Sorry, Sektor. Gone astray. Again. smile
