So I'm working on an actual non-meme TF2 video. Here's all I have to show for now
Just gonna geek over fan-made SFM music videos really quick because XboxGamerK is a fucking beast. Her video “The Illusion of Living” for the “Can’t Be Erased” metal remix (by Xandu ft. Zak)? Fucking amazing. Good shit. My favorite one she’s done personally, and that’s not an easy choice to make. Perfect visuals for the song, AND it tells an entire story beyond the lyrics.
(The gifs aren’t great quality because this is Tumblr, the videos go up to 1080p60. Honestly just watch the video anyway, support XboxGamerK)
Look at this glorious bastard and those fantastic falling physics, both of him and his tail AND every individual gear and wrench. How the hell do you take a basic map and a T-Posing model with no lighting and turn it into something like this. I don’t even know if SFM HAS built-in physics, from what I can tell from her progress videos this might just all be done by hand.
I can feel that shit. And it’s so perfectly fitting for the point in the song. She’s so damn good at that.
She has some of the most fluid SFM work and most fantastic lighting effects I’ve seen from an amateur animator, I wish I could get better quality gifs on Tumblr
The creativity she has working with this is amazing to me, and she has such a good grasp of mood.
She’s got SUCH A GOOD GRASP OF FEELING AND STORYTELLING WITH SUCH LIMITED RESOURCES. She can tell an entire story in a few minutes based on the lyrics of a song she animates the characters to. And it’s a good story. SFMs are NOT the kind of thing that makes me think “yes, this is good media” and then there’s this.
I’ve seen her progress videos for this one (they’re like speedpaints for snippets of her animations) and her desktop clock shows her working for four hours to get the first 18 seconds of footage. Like four and a half seconds per hour of work. It’s a five-minute animation. Those first 18 seconds are some of the least dynamic of the entire video. I admire her work ethic very much, I could never put that much time into something for progress that slow. I would die.
Engie kicking people off buildings. Be careful fellas :0
Haha, guns go brrrrrr
I love seeing how far creators on youtube have come when they started out having barely or never used a certain platform before. Never forget that you’re always improving, guys, and keep at it.
I’m particularly nostalgic about SFM music video animators right now.
(a couple of the gifs for the older videos may not work properly, they keep stopping after a couple of cycles)
