/rwby/ - RWBY

M8 he was never really that coherent of a individual. Hell if I recall there was a mention by one YT commentor who was just trying to compliment him and all they got in return was him jumping the gun and biting their head off.

And it's usually for your best interest to stay away from most of, if not all of RWBY's community. Because it's like staring into the Abyss's Asshole and having it undulate back at you.

I remember there is a way to get them back but only the board admin can do it.

At least extract the html code or the text and rebuild the thread with whatever useful thing he can find.

>Doesn't matter.

My point there was that I don't see the point criticizing the critiques. So they have an annoying voice, they call each other names, it's another day on the eternal debate, so what? They can do it. You can too.

>25:04 bitches about Rooster Teeth not improving or taking criticism well throughout the video, proceeds to cry like a bitch immediately after when someone calls him a faggot

How is calling someone a faggot criticism?

It's just calling him a faggot. From where in that sentence anyone is supposed to draw ways to improve or change?

>hell one of them gave some solid advice for him

>but he puts the comment in the 'toxic fandom showcase' because it wasn't worded kindly enough along with the others

r/rwby: "Only worship RWBY and their mighty creators Miles and Kerry! Three times a day before you go to sleep!"

r/rwby: "Monty is the messiah when we need it, any other time he's the false prophet that wasn't that good of a writer either!"

Threadly reminder that bumblebee got mixed with women's day and made Glynda die.

He's not wrong about just scrolling and finding shit out of place either. Pics related grabbed minutes ago from this day. No need for digging.

I'm not a fucking prune but if the sexual tension is killing them so bad why not rub one out and come back when they can think on something that isn't "how can I draw something suggestive between these guys?"

Just get it out of your system. Why everything has to be about placing characters in situations where you want them to bang, all the time?

>They are. They have punching, kicking and shooting.

But it still lacks animation fundamentals that ruin those actions- any action/movement the characters make. I'll say that I don't know jack shit about fight choreography and I'm just getting used to knowing the fundamentals right now, but in art (and most likely other subjects) its absolutely necessary to demonstrate your fundamental steps before you can get into the details.

When people move, their bodies motion against gravity. Even when the body is still, there is still implications of gravity (feet being squashed slightly on the ground, muscles working with and against it). Almost all of animation will mimic the basic gravity that exists in our world. This is one of the fundamentals to know when animating characters.

The goal of animation in general is to make it believable. Pic related is a snippet from the beginning parts of Animator's Survival Kit that explains this well. In general , animations need believably in their world rather than realism. In order to do that, people study anatomy and how it moves and why it moves like that and apply it to their fictional characters. Looking at anime and cartoons, if there are characters jumping and flying up 10 ft up in the sky, there's still a sense of force occurring in their movements.

This is just one part of Monty's bad direction/animation btw, there's other problems in there like composition and bad color relationships with the objects/backgrounds in each scenes. He's not the worst animator in the world, but he isn't good.

So you can have all of the flashy, cool 5 sec. movements in your whole 8 min fight scene, but without that fundamental knowledge of motion then every single thing in that scene, and even your whole show/movie will fall apart.

In drawing terms, this will be like those pictures that follow coloring tutorials in attempts to make your drawings look pretty- but if you can't draw, its a bad picture no matter what you do. (Which was why many western artists drew bad deviantart anime back in the day, because they don't know that the animu drawings they saw were good because they had fundamentals in them, not because of "their style")

>Read it all.

I stand by my opinion. What, as a consumer, have I got from these animators following da rulez?

Almost nothing.

Monty moves everything, little to no commentary, music in tone and it is a beating.

Current BC interrupts the fight (like in s6 Cinder vs Neo, RWBY vs Cordovin, Ruby vs Leviathan, s4 RNJR vs Fluffy, s6 Yang and Blake vs Adam, s5 RWBY vs Hazel (worst of them all).

All of them could be fights had they not paused them to deliver unnecessary, corny, edgy lines. Or long useless sentimental scenes with dramatic music pulled out of mexican stories.

Anon, I respect that you want to follow the book. But if the book means that I'm not getting jack, I'll prefer Monty's mediocrity, because within his mediocrity, I got entertained. I got fights that feel like fights. I am not here to go frame by frame to study their technique, then give them my opinion, I'm here to look at the product of their technique and then give them my opinion.

And now, samples from "Monty Oum and Monty Oum notes vs Current RWBY department, Autodesk and all the fresh graduates from whatever art schools are in Texas":

<The first:

>s2 episode 11, rwby gets into the train compartments. As soon as they drop, Blake hands Weiss ammo; "here, have it." Move.

>Next scene, Weiss finds doomguy; "you go on ahead". Doomguy: "I never thought I'd have the privilege to kill a Schnee." Fight.

>Next scene, Yang finds Neo, "you go on ahead". Fight.

>Next scene, Blake finds Roman, straight to the fight. Not a single word until it's almost over.

>s3 episode 11, docks, Ironwood is supervising evacuation. A fucking Alpha makes its way through.

>Ironwood and Alpha lock on each other. You can feel the heat, like when two lions are about to fight.

>Ironwood rushes, grabs Alpha right arm, twists it, pulls a revolver and shoots it on the head.

>Walks away not looking back

>Anon: Dude, this guy is so badass

<The latter:

>s5 last episode, Hazel is half done, Weiss or Ruby (can't remember) "looks like you're finished"

>Anon: Shit, she left her guard down, next camera change she's getting plastered into the wall, look out!

>Hazel, standing still shouts like a potato: "NOOOOOO!"

>Anon: Fuck you. Fuck both of you.

>s6 episode 13, ruby rides a wasp "you can do this, you have to do this"

>Anon: Shit, what's she doing, why she's going in front of it.

>Anon pause: Maybe it's going to use herself as bait and when they get godzilla far from the city everyone will join the action, even the old lady.

>Silver eyes

>don't work

>Anon: Neat, maybe it is just so the fighting gets more intense

>Ruby "jin!"

>They're pausing shit again

>Smug dialog

>Silver eyes

>work, sappy music

>Anon: GO FUCK YOURSELVES.
