Hey cunts, at what point does animation become excessive?

Hey cunts, at what point does animation become excessive?

Animation is only excessive when it distracts too much from the point of the actual scene without adding anything. Characters being lively and expressive in an exaggerated way isn't "excessive animation," it's just cartooning.

This looks great though. I think you guys just hate cg lol. I see complaining about choppy frames too.

If you knew dick about cinema you'd understand that the character in focus needs to be lively and expressive to have an interesting shot. Do you want her to just stand there and talk like some playstation 1 npc?

posting a Anon Babble thread that just died on Anon Babble

kill yourself op

If a woman acted like this while interacting with her I'd assume she was flirting with me and I'd develop an unhealthy obsession with her.

Is that what this character is from? I have only seen it in porn

Stop all that fucking fidgeting!

If this was 2D you'd be calling this the modern standard of animation

The animation isn't bad. Actually it's very good. But the Kiriko age discrepancy kinda fucked up the Shimada backstory.

This is the definition of "overacting", it's bad in live-action and it's bad in animation.

OP’s example is 100% excessive, don’t kid yourself

the character in focus needs to be lively and expressive to have an interesting shot

holy pseud
never bring up cinema ever again, you tumor of a human

fuck you, the lack of expression is also a resource, like silence and black screens

Some of the best performances in movie history are praised for their subtlety, which is the exact opposite of your broad (and incorrect) claim. Maybe try watching a movie instead of just bring up "cinema" as a piss-poor rebuttal.

hahahah youre so hilarious anon, and what an original joke too!

Its the shit I hate in Final Fantasy, thats why I never played any besides Dissidea.

In live action you are actually supposed to overreact otherwise it looks like two anime characters talking
Optimal acting for television is like when you are drunk with friends talking about old times because all that movement is real and shows true interaction
Go to anywhere public and you will see people are mostly static with limited movements.
Its real but not good at getting and keeping attention
Aren't those performances displays of strong emotion and pain, the words expressing the pain and situations regarding it being what makes it good acting?
Its rare to see someone talking about the great acting from a scene of a bunch of dudes doing pretty much nothing

This looks like someone tried to copy dreamworks animation because they don't understand human emotions well enough themselves

Bitches were really acting like that in the late 2000s and early 2010s.....I miss the quirky white girl era

If you knew dick about cinema you'd understand that the character in focus needs to be lively and expressive

The Dollars Trilogy begs to differ. The character in focus needs to match the direction of the scene.
You'd never direct characters like this in a drama or thriller, animated or not.

Kiriko is for BBC

Do you want her to just stand there and talk like some playstation 1 npc?

Yes, it'd be less spastic than modern shit

Theres nothing abhorant about the animation itself. The character, on the other hand, needs her face put through a pastrami slicer.

Put it this way:
If she was a real person (an actress) you would say the acting in this scene was just bad.
However, you can't say that the animation in this scene is bad. That is because the animation is made in relation of what the character is supposed to do.

While I love animation I have found my self slowly falling in love with looking at raw key frames, animatics and even storyboards in motion. so while I don't hate over animation, I do think animators should learn to let things linger.

not there

low empathy individuals struggle with any expression that isn't dismissive disgust

Color me surprised.

All right, I'll bite. Explain why it is excessive and how it's hurting the scene.

animation is cinema

why is animation acting just symbols and cliches now
