Tips for Polishing Animation from a Disney Animator

What can I say ? Two really awesome persons together, talking about animation ..MAGIC !! Thanks Sir ...I love it...as always !! ;-)

This was so useful to watch! Some really great and helpful advice in here, thank you so much for making this! xD

So much valuable advice and information thank you so much for this interview :)

Great video. Some nice advice's. But the edit was killing my eyes. Sound wise all ok, and if you just listen its great. But looking at it, with everything jumping it was a nightmare. I understand that there was a lot of water that you edited. But I would rather watch a 2+ hour long video than this edit. Hope next time you prepare a script or don't edit that much. Anyway great job. Really interesting topics for animators. Keep'em coming.

Hi sir, I am from India and i am about to finish up with schools. I want to study at school of visual arts in New York. I want to become a modeler and an animator , and I am terrible at drawing. I know basic modeling and animation which i learnt from an local academy in my town. Most of the portfolios I saw which were accepted contained hand drawn stuff. Will i get accepted if I only include some 3d models and pieces of animation? I am very serious about it and i have also started preparing for English tests such as the IELTS. Thank you!

Sir Wade! Great Videos as always, I love what your doing to help everyone that aspires to become an animator, myself included! So Keep at it everyone, and we can all grow together as artists! :D

Superb!!

Thanks sir Wade..

I’m 17 and my dreams to be a animator am I too old or too late to start now and be successful ?

Hey could you do some maya tutorials

Well i want to study animation at college and i want to work at dreamworks after finish it but what i should have to work in it ?

Thanks for this video sir..

So much good advice here and I'm so glad you answered my question in Tim's vid. You've got a new dedicated sub.

Loved the bit about robbing a frame here and there to speed up or make an action a little snappier. I do this a lot as well. And I HATE half frames. Lol

can you tell about walk cycle and upper body in next tutorial

EVRY..... EVERY.... EVEEEEEERYTHING. ....EVERY. Gesturing all over the place.

Did I understand it correctly.. he said to always animate in FK and use IK only when there is interaction?

I really want to be an animator when I grow up. A lot of people dont believe me because I'm only 11 but ever since I wanted to be one I'm always fascinated when I watch movies. Thank you so much for the tips and information!

omg this is very useful! You got a subscriber here man. I really wanted to work in disney but my animation skill is way behind the required quality. Please get more information from disney animators :D

Sir, could u make a tutorial with contains information about how to made a blocking poses of a lenghty dynamic movements of a character.....including progressive run & walk

This was great, thank you for making this video!

Thank you for the video, really appreciate it!

Dang, Two legends sitting side by side! Loved this video! ❤️

what do you do when you animated a LOT and then maya freezes?

Thank you so much, amazing tips !!!

Practically batao bhai thearically nhi samj ati

Thank you very much :), This is very helpful

really polishing not there in student work? I'd say it's when you're pro that you don't get to polish anymore cuz you don't have time.;

Does anyone know about that script that he talks about which works moving the keys to whole frames without editing the curve?

Good stuff, this is pretty much exactly what I do lol

Such a wonderfully candid, open and honest conversation. So many great tips that feel so much more inspiring than the often daunting nature of others' tip videos. Thank you both.

scale keys for the timing.. it is a problem for me. surely arcs are everywhere. mouth, eye brow, torso etc. I must be carefull for everything.

this guy had alot of good tips. how hard would it be to clip some b role of ratatouille?

Thank you gor making this videos!

He’s my brother in laws brother

This is such a useful video, I'm a 18yo aspiring Pixar animator and, while perfectly logical, it feels good hearing those tips from a professional, and more !

Hello from Russia, Wade!
Thank you for very useful stuff!

really nice video!! nice tips. I liked all the stuff about the face.

really nice one

I always learn something new from re-studying this video! I miss interviews a lot they're super helpful and fun to watch. Please do more!

I feel like animation is much like cooking in a sense, it's a lot about the feel, even on written recipes you see a lot of :salt to taste. What I mean is that it has a lot to do with the feeling, how you feel when watching how others feel when watching.

Being an animator for 25 years, I can agree to every single word he’s saying.

Im just before my final presentation for school, and this is litteraly perfect gold for me rn

Great questions for the interview Wade, everything said is exactly the things I either consider or worry about on the daily. Such good tips.

A ton of really great stuff in here!

nice video thank you!! dark brotherhood?

Thank you. this is more than an educational resource🫰

This is a great one to watch all the way through, so many useful tips! What do YOU guys struggle with most when you're polishing???
