Thank you so much for half a million subscribers. I hope this video strikes a balance between helpful and entertaining. I encourage everyone with the faintest interest in animation to try out this process, it's really fun and unique. It's okay to steal my style outright, imitation is flattery and the greatest jumping off point for finding your own style. Links in the description to everything you'll need! Much love

Someone write him a python script for putting every frame into each new folder lmao

This man is too wholesome for... Like... Everything

Was here

Yes! I will know your secrets!

History is being made right here

He looks like a vrchat avatar

Half a million then now 800k+ that's awesome and well deserved!

You changed your look so many times bro damn

"Absinth does have some quirks" Yeah, it does

you're the first content creator I've encountered for a while that I think is massively original and inspiring, for a bloody long time. you're hella awesome on so many levels and thanks for this vid!

He could keep it secret but no, this man shared his secret knowledge, give this man a medal

He reminds me of Walter Jr.

Hey ADULT SWIM. Give Joel a bag of money to do more of this. Seriously, don't be a dick about it, just give him the money.

Sire! What is your first decree as Galactic Emperor... Heh hehhh

GER really did mess with the thumbnail.

You're the best comrade Joel.

Wow, hehe, what a great video, maybe i will subscribe sometime, maybe not, i probably will, but who's to say

my brain hurts

This tutorial has a lot of zhu zhu blu blu flu flu

This is awesome. A for Effort and A for Content. Love it.

I already knew how you did it! But I thought you used an AI tool which does the same thing.

You have anxious Joe Pera energy

how i watched this video

"Thas crazy" The most underrated phrase of the whole video.

TELEVISION NEEDS YOU JOEL

2:49

way harder than what I thought

Dude, awesome video, I am a 'couch content creator' and as I'm sure you know whether it's github for programming or vids like these or how to Garageband vids or how to Blender pixel art... I just love how most of us creators help each other. So many people are talented and are lacking either resources or time, as you said, everyone should be allowed to make art. Everyone! You shouldn't be limited by the fact you don't have a production team to whip around or a sleazeball Money Lord to back you. Love the sentiment here! Saving this, and if I ever have a video or video game project and end up rotoscoping something, totally throwing you credit. Much love Joel!

Well then, i'd love to see the original camera shot videos without the animations.

So this is how you make it look like shit

Thank you for sharing

scuffed vtuber

Thanks for making this and your great films. I love your look and it's so unique that it'll be difficult for anyone to ever copy you, which is great!

wow, that must take hours

This man literally started a revolution with this beautiful animation style

Loved to hear your thoughts on using new technologies to make art. I couldn’t agree more! Thank you for showing us your workflow Joel

How I animated this video: step one: turn every frame in the video into pictures step two: edit them one by one step three: finish

This is an actual vtuber

hey this looks really nice and i've never seen animations like this anywhere else this may be somthing i'll try mabye not but its defiantly really nice and creative good job

This is awesome! You must work pretty hard on these.

“Blue blue flu flu”

I'd love if you created a much longer step-by-step process for newbies for your animation creation. Great work!

That monitor looks like the playstation TV where you could play splitscreen without splitting the screen.

you are like borat good

You could have kept your trade secret or trademark it for profits, but you didn't. You are a real gem of UZtop!!!

Well damn dude that's some cool stuff good luck dude really

You are a treasure that's hard to come by, keep on keepin on buddy.

Wow that is really painstaking process

Omg dud thenk you for linus tech tips moment help amog sus animation

I like how this guys features changed throughout the whole video lmao

0:33 Can't wait for the next manhunt!

Tried doing this, and now I'm scarred for life by the monstrosity I created.

So this is where the dev behind The Town With No Name has been after all these years.

That's why all of his videos like this are pretty short because it's a pain in the ass to do

nice, subbed

Ebsyth exported my files, but the folder is empty. Any advice?

That’s crazy

This makes me appreciate your videos 1000% more thats alot of effort!

Joel, you beautiful soul 💜

Your films seem like something you’d see on adult swim

Another worthy contribution to the all.

Joel Haver is going to be the Bob Ross of youtube videos

4:39 You can see the exact moment he has a stroke due to all his hard work No but seriously, it's impressive how much work you put into your animations I admire you, bro.

wow, nothing but respect for you my man I've only seen three of your videos so far including this one and I'm extremely impressed. the time you put into this you definitely deserve over a million subs

🤔 Joel is God.

Thank you for the video so much! So informative

These animations are awesome man!!

4:40 My new favorite word for 2021.

So, do you have to completely redraw the character every frame that you choose for the expressions? Is there some quick method around having to do that?

I relate to that first line too much

good vibes - cool art - awesome joel!

This. Is beautiful.

I knew it was EbSynth right away the first time I saw your videos. There's no mistaking it!

thats a whole lot of work

Can someone explain to me his definition of "shot"? Is it a single frame, is it every frame in one angle?

JUJU BLUBLU FLUFLU

So that's why you don't blink in these vids

Holy shit this guy's a fucking legend actually

4:40

Juju fufu popo

This man is like a Euclid class Reality warper SCP. Just call him SCP-053-JH, the Animated Reality Bender. Anyone near him has a 80% chance of being sucked into one of his videos, and they are the even more socially awkward character in the scene. Anyone transported in never comes back the same, they act like the characters around them depending on the stage around them; and they stay socially awkward and have dialogues with themselves while trying to fight rats thinking the rats have weapons.

his shirt... I thought i was going insane.. But its changing! Hes evolving... not just his shirt his entire being is evolving.

Really interesting, love your work

you are like a mix of jshlat and Eddie burback

1:36 did u just smile

Ah yes, the labor intensive process of rotoscoping

i was expecting a goody self aware video but instead but thoroughly educated in the most down to earth, best way possible - i’ll share this with my communications technology teacher and perhaps we can do something with this info in the future for our school! much love you’ll have 1M by the end of the year at the most, congratulations:^)

"Anytime technology makes art easier to learn, more accessible, more efficient, we should applaud it. Art should be in the hands of everyone." Couldn't agree more, thank you for this!

respect bro, thanks for this.

This is like from the 19's

Mans a legend

Thanks for this informative video, Joel. I have another question: You call yourself “Joel Haver”, but how many Joels are you currently in possession of exactly? Does your reserve of Joels impact your videos at all? Where are you hiding them? Thanks.

you got the CRTTV look

damn that's actually very cool

Noice

This channels going up like Bitcoin

Thats angenius!

The least I could do is throw you a sub
