Nova Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Well,i am thinking of making kinda furry magical gurl anime but i know i need much money and good art skills and time but how long does it take to make a storyboard and then the fullrender. I am thinking to make short animations next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Although I can't tell you how much (it was still likely a lot for a normal person) kill la kill was a low budget anime. It takes a lot of money, time, and talent to make -decent- full length animations in a reasonable time frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 you mean i should learn and practice before the difficult parts.yes completely.yesyesyesyesyesBUT i wouldn't discourage you from at least trying a larger project to see if you can do it. you will probably find it a failure, but failure in that regard can be educational as well.but don't rely on that! build the small things up all the time.

Misomie Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I remember some of the youtubers I used towatch talk about their animations. For a five minute video, there was around 12k frames. Each frame can take 30 minutes (for a faster artist) or one hour plus (for a more detailed animation or a slower artist). Aka, it takes a lot of time.

Yamidog Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Assuming you know EXACTLY what you want and don't need any revisions, a storyboard can take as little as a day or two, assuming you're an art machine.As for animating, 2D (hand drawn) animation is generally recorded at 24 frames per second with each drawing shown twice, so 12 fps. A standard episode is around 22 minutes which means you will have about 15,840 frames, and the same amount of hours spent assuming you spend one hour per frame. Add in backgrounds (pretend 10 backgrounds, 5 hours each), plus editing you're looking at about 16,000 hours of work.If you do it alone working efficient 8 hour days it will take ~2000 work days for an episode.My thesis short film was 1min 20sec and took me over 300 hours to complete. I recommend working in a group instead of solo for animation, something MAP style with multiple artists, though you'll need to find some hobby/volunteer animators.

Dr. Doggo Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Traditional animation takes tons of time. There's plenty of short animations to watch on youtube and a majority of them took months or a year to make, all intensive work. Flash animation cuts a lot of corners via certain techniques but doesn't look as good (IMHO) but still takes a lot of time, plus an extra layer of technical knowledge.From what I know about anime, most popular animes started as mangas. The manga itself is months/years of work for a single person even if its not long-running. However, writing/drawing a manga in the west isn't likely to succeed in the east to be made into an anime. Plus, the traditional animation industry in the west is close to dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sar Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 That purely depends on how much you are willing to reiterate your story. If you think you've got something right first time, chances are you've rushed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
