It’s STILL crazy how Lackadaisy-Pilot came out a year ago.

Seeing the slight loss of innocence being lost at such a young age is haunting.

Atlas probably doesn't speak because Ivy doesn't remember his voice. Ivy may also only remember him from photos, which would mostly be black and white.

ProZD’s vocal length is just the right amount of both Devious and Machiavellian

14:38 How dare Viktor laugh at Mordecai’s roller skating.

I love that the backgrounds are just sepia toned, very limited colors.

This short takes place after the events in a flashback in the Lackadaisy comic (starting in Lackadaisy Gravediggers and ending in Lackadaisy Bygones), long before the events in the animated pilot. Victor and Mordecai were in a brawl/gunfight with some rival gangsters, during which Mordecai did, in fact, fall down some stairs and break his arm - and then stabbed a guy with a piece of the broken railing. Victor was telling the truth about not losing his eye in the war, though. While he did serve in the US military during the Great War (WW1), he lost his eye after moving to the US while participating in a worker's strike before the beginning of the story.

I get the feeling that Atlas does have a legit color scheme but that's something they're holding off on for... reasons...

Love this because it focuses on 3 of my favorite characters voiced by some great voice actors which both Ivy & Mordecai voice actors are both voice in the English dub of “Delicious in Dungeon” as Falin & Senshi

I absolutely loved the thumbnail artwork because it basically foreshadows Ivy following in her father’s footsteps later on in the future. Also having Edward Bosco be the VA for Ruby Pepper blew my mind! An also Atlas May, no voice lines whatsoever but he’s still a mystery even in life and having his overall character design to have monochromatic colors is just genius!

The Lackadaisy channel is getting SO close to 1 MILLION SUBS!

A lot of props in Lackadaisy are CGI, so yes the gun is CGI and so is the entire background with GREAT texturing. The people responsible for the technical side sometimes post stuff on the official server, so that's where I find some of the little fun facts for how something is made.

I seriously can’t wait for season one of Lackadaisy. I’ve been a fan of it since 2014,and it’s phenomenal how far it’s come!Loved the reaction.

Love Lackadaisy, can't wait for the full show.

The talk of 2D vs 3D reminded me of episode 2 of A Fox in Space. Where they used 3D models in blender but got them to look pretty dang close to looking 2D. Given that its one dude doing all that, its wicked impressive.

Ingenue is what got me into Lackadaisy! I watched the pilot but wasn’t really into it, but after this short I was ALL in, rewatched the pilot and fell in love with

Giancarlo Desposito should voice Atlas, he seems like a good fit for the role

Ruby is Ivy's dad! Not her brother! He looks very young tho in all fairness, it still makes sense as Ivy is very young in the short but also back then it was common to have kids when you were turning into a full fledged adult. And the short takes place around early EARLY 1920s, I think 21, so it makes sense why Ruby looks quite young here.

Lackadaisy is just so pretty

Reuben/Ruby Pepper is Ivy's father, so it was her dad that we saw

I LOVE the attention to historical detail in this series. The Twin Six Packard at the start had me in stitches. ❤

12:50 Training an AI on only your own work causes technical issues. With a sample size that small, the resulting model would be prone to hallucinations, bad results, and other kinds of failure. In other words, AI that can't steal data is AI that sucks at its given purpose. Ps: Atlas' all-grayscale design reminds me of W.D. Gaster.

I always figured that Atlas' grey tones was partly that he's so far the only character in the main cast who is currently dead in the modern day of the comic and pilot, but since his eyes are colored here and his tail has that slight yellow on the bottom I bet he's also just naturally grey colors and REALLY leaned into it for his fashion LOL

If someone creates an AI TV streaming service they had better not think we are going to be paying for it.

This vid is 19 minutes and 28 seconds long, sooo close to when the comic is set!

Btw I'm not sure if someone here already wrote this, but the song used in the credits is a cover of a real life song called "Somewhere A Voice Is Calling" by John Francis McCormack ✨

I just knew why they spend time talking more about AI animation arts, than talking about how did Lackadaisy making animation.

Love this and man i wish the show will have a s2 and be after the pilot!❤

If you haven't you have got to watch the short animation "The Red Eclipse". It is such an interesting short.

If you are possibly taking suggestions would recommend Dungeon Flippers.

Hay there

Can you two check out lackadaisy and paranoid dj liquid gold

Saberspark is not getting away from the furry accusations with that furry avatar (cough*Fursona*cough)

Little Ivy is so cute❤❤

I recommend Alan Becker. You could start with his older stuff, or with his newer stuff, but they’re both good.

Like others have pointed out, Rueben is Ivy's FATHER, not her brother.

can u do Puzzle and sling next?

I watched Ingenue's live premiere

Ai being used on a personal level isn't the worst thing for inbetween key frames buuut lets face it it always ends up going too far to replace things ...look at the history of horses and cars

@12:45 The one issue with that program is that people will use it on other people’s work. I’ve already seen an artist have their art style replicated by AI and being posted to the same site. As long as other people have access to your art and an AI, sadly nothing is safe. Though it might not be as problematic in the animator field

I believe Atlas is supposed to be a Lynx.

tbf, I don't mind using AI to help me with some ideas (I'm not a visual artist) but I do like it for music, programming and sometimes other concepts.

2:00 I mean, Australians like to call Amerian money 'Freedom Eagles'. Oh, how much is this book? Ahh, it's 15 Freedom Eagles.

🥬✨

I think AI is fine. Like, for in betweens, go ahead and let it make them and then go over it again yourself after to polish it off or fix errors. You save time and still have everything pass through your hands. Win-win. It's about responsible use and transparency. It doesn't have to be an absolute black or white issue.

Try watching Space King or Punch Punch Forever!

Pão

I'm considering trying to use showrunner to distribute* actual indie animation (A.K.A. human-made animation). I hope it's not too locked down for someone to get something good weaseled in so the people who would be using it for AI schlock go "oh, this is awesome" and the animators can show that it actually takes work and talent to make something good. I feel like that might be an avenue to get people to side with us artists instead of these theiving a**holes. Then again, the AI bros tend to stick to their guns. This sucks.

i feel conflited about prodz still having a part to play in this animation studio after his racist ass remarks about who should be allowed to voice whom based on skin color, but at the same time i like how some people are all like forgive and forget. im on the fence here.

Uhm.. Thats Ivy dad😅. He does look young lol.

AI is terrible and we really shouldn't give it the time of day

I didn't know she had a brother, I thought that was her dad.

Is it just me or has everyone basically forgotten about Lackadaisy?

I don't mind AI as long as it is announced.
