So maybe Ebsynth could be used for this?

wow really? Man sometimes you really can't compare your own work to the a big studio since they got even machine learning helping

I've seen multiple videos, in which they edited and moved around the facial strokes, similar to greasepencil or a spline. They may have created their custom tool with the help of machine learning but they definitely did not just put it into a machine that made those strokes for them.

@@poppi3362 they drew them by hand, but just for key frames, the model was responsible for filling the in-between frames.

@@RafaelBeckel kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fbGdq6aV3LfKaJc.html This is what I saw, they used rigged lines and could draw lines as well.

I get that, but try to think of it as essentially the equivalent of a cook book. Listed out steps with a picture or two. I like these little snippet videos that are more like "hey this is a thing that is possible" then you need to learn how to do it. Takes a bit longer but usually will learn a few extra things on the way. (P.S. I think CGMatter and or Ducky3D have tutorials that go more in-depth on stuff like this)

@@34zporlier10 I'm saying from a perspective of someone who's been in the field for several years. These steps are pretty basic general toon shader principles. Spider verse used other things to make it look unique. If you follow this tutorial your video will not look anything like spiderverse, it will look like a toon render that's it

@@Dhruv1223 Brunt of the work went into strong shape language using modeling, custom normals and some blendshape trickery involving said custom normals, texturing and compositing. A lot of what was in this video's a good chunk of the basic idea of what was used for Spiderverse, and other productions like Arcane by Studio Fortiche and RIOTGames, and the new DreamWorks animated movies (Puss In Boots 2, The Bad Guys). After, it comes down to style. I've seen solid theorycrafting on Arcane and SpiderVerse in Blender that I'm currently diving into; LightningBoyStudio goes into great detail on Arcane especially, and SothernShotty does stylized stuff that can be applied. There's a lot of theory vids and solid results on KZfaq with a little searching; "Spiderverse Blender" and "Arcane Blender" gave me solid stuff. But ultimately things like composition, character design, cinematography, lighting, ingenuity's a strong component, a vision and purpose for diving into a popular style, etc etc... That all comes down to the creator(s) It's good that you've been in the field, so a lot of these terms are probably baseline. Hope this helps, and good luck on some awesome future productions!

@@Wyntrfang lightning boy is amazing! I've actually been using a variations of what they did for arcane since sometime as well (however their projection technique was a life saver for me, before that I would just get regular textures paint over them in a painting app and then re apply playing with shader to RGB and other nodes to get the look i wanted). My artstyle is also more 2d based, so started watching Lightning boy from the first video that he released :)

Hello, you didn't add the texture for light effect.

Pls send my a tutorial

indeed feels misleading when the author himself doesnt even feel confident in showing it at all.

Why would they need to when they already showed an example??

@@How2MagicMan101 you mean the completely blurred out rendered sequence at the end?

@@pom791 I don’t think he ever stated he was gonna show a final result, but he did show examples for everything he taught

@@How2MagicMan101 Its basic etiquette to post a complete, finished result in a tutorial that advertises "how to achieve X", especially when the WIP shown looks as lack luster and low quality as it does in the video. You are being disingenious, putting your final render behind a blur wall shows lack of confidence of the finished look.

*than

I think it's only available in the compositing tab

you ever get an answer on that?

Actually.. The screen mix by the blue color needs to be gone, Plug the blue displacement node directly into mix screen node from Pink.then it works wonderfully

Glad you figured it out :)

agreed

I agree with this statement fundamentally, but it’s also worth noting that studying other styles is a really great way to learn techniques that you can use to further improve and evolve your own style.

Start with blender guru's donut tutorial and then follow tutorials you find interesting

Crossmind Studio is cool if you’re a beginner but want to go into more advanced stuff

start with blender guru's donut tutorial then just watch some videos get inspiration and make something.
