pretty sad since the fight scene wasn't even well animated. No weight or momentum to the blows or anything and it was a choppy mess

I thought some cuts were okay and same goes for the choreography as well. It's not material worthy of a sakuga MAD though.

I'd not say it's terrible, but if that's the best cut in the whole show I have to wonder why anyone would subject their eyes to it.

I agree that the movement was choppy, but I didn't really like the choreography that much either. There was no concrete flow of action and it seemed like a bunch of shit mashed together instead of progressing as a single unity.

The fighting moves were fine, I'd say some of it looked like proper martial arts moves. It's the animation and perhaps storyboard that dragged it down.

I keep reading about how Miyazaki made Ponyo as hand crafted as possible. So did Ghibli use actual paint and cels or is this just referring to the lack of CGI for the movie like what was used in Princess Mononoke?

Before anyone responds, I know how unlikely the former is.

I'm pretty sure it was more to do with using hand-drawn animation.

Ghibli has been using digital cels since Spirited Away.

-Judging from the number of key animators, new part should be about 30-45 minutes long. It all depends on how big part Yutapon animated.

Kinda wish Bari was here as well. Would have been nice to see him work on some HQ budget cuts. Yutapon even retweeted Bari's tweet today.

That's nice, what's the total running time?

Name: Anonymous 2013-02-08 9:22

>>259

150 minutes. Also, the 30-45 minutes thing seems to be just a speculation. Apparently, it's shorter, but Yutapon animated circa 5 minutes.

This is not rotoscope, right?

I'd say it was used as a reference. Which is common technique in animation.

I suspected as much, given the different camera placement. By the way, that's Norio Matsumoto's cut was it?

Either him or Tokuyuki Matsutake.

The Hanasaku Iroha movie looks rather...normal.

There are two nice cuts around the end but it's really mediocre for a movie, especially considering how short it'll be. Can we have Ando back?

Actually, I wonder how Ando is able to direct both Tempest and HanaIro at the same time

I'm guessing enshutsu work is being done by someone else...?
Since it's only 1 hour long it can't have taken that much time, especially if they began work when the show ended.

Apparently Chikashi Kubota animated in SSY #19. Hopefully it's an interesting cut.

Koike Lupin had less than 3 weeks per episode of animation time. No wonder the show ended up so poor looking in the production values for something that aimed so high..

What's the average animation time like for most anime? Also, where did you read about that?

Thomas Romain, a gaijin Satelight employee. He was replying to your exact same question:
>The preproduction of a show (script and first designs) starts around 9 and 12 months before airing in general.
>The firsts eps are produced slowly then it accelerates until the end. Episodes are still produced during broadcast of the firsts
>Once the storyboard is finished we need 7 weeks to achieve a standard qualiry ep. Sometimes it can be a lot shorter!
>10 On last year Lupin show. Friends told me they had less than 3 weeks from animation start till airing! Insane even for Japan.

What's the point of even trying to air shows with a schedule like that? There must have been some big issue in there for it to get so fucked up.

Shinsekai Yori 19 was really good, there were a lot of very powerful cuts. Although that may be the storyboard in part, which was just pure genius.

Only notable guy was Kubota, really?

Why don't studios have more in-house employees anyway? Most of his problems seem to stem from this.
