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

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

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

01:03 01:36

This whole animation gives me A Scanner Darkly vibe.

This is a great example of rotoscoping

Trendead makes really good use of this information. Thanks for sharing it, and have a good day.

HE DIDN'T EVEN BLINK seems like SCP-173 finally have a worthy opponent

You a big brain boy

This can’t be accurate

I though these animations were made trought a Kinect or something that captures movement, damn this Is even better and Also way harder

Could anybody please explain how he colors in his face so easily around 2:50? I am having trouble at that part, thanks!

5:33 FUCK yes.

He’s like, awkwardly nice and loving

0:32 dream be like

Guys i know this is confusing but i think the thumbnail is a jojo reference!

How am I just now discovering this genius?

I'm watching on Feb 25 2021, 34 days or so after the video posted. When he said "half a million" I looked and was surprised to find it's now 800K. This channel must just be exploding.

“it gives it a lil life. a lil joo- ajoojoo abloobloo floofloOo” im crying. you are so silly oh my god. you are probably such a fun person to be around 😂😂

I've been having videos pop up in my feed thanks to this tutorial. All them call it Joel Haver style. Love it and love our lil Joel. Even if did he call his substitute teacher mom.

Tip: watch this channel if you're bored

I didn't even realise that this was posted on my birthday. kinda cool. Any video posted on your birthday feels like it was made for you, for some reason. idk.

Cant be the only one that thought he was holding a ak47 in the thumbnail

MNmore recommends this and OK its pretty good

Nah, art is more than a final product. Art is more than a story or an idea or a message. Art is also about ability, practice, capability, technique. But this is still great work, and I think it's art. But don't put down hard work, practiced technique, and superior ability.

Do girls animate like that? do girls do that?

Reminds me of Rick and Morty for obvious reasons

wow man, i always wanted do something similar, but i'm not to skilled, for realise. this is amazing!

I fkin love this :D

Why does he sound like Strong Bad? It's not just me, right? And I say that positively. No insult intended.

Very interesting way of animation. It's like rotoscoping but more AI based

This is so cool. It's a combination of animation and live action. It's amazing

One of the most unique styles I've ever seen, so it was fascinating seeing how it comes to life!

i¡i

4:40 That's damn funny

be ready for 10000s of 10 secound garbage as videos converted with this style to be recomended to you.

Thanks a million for some nifty behind the scenes Joel Haver! Your animations have the kind of genuinely funny charm only brought through one of my also favorite things in life: improv. This charm in animation I've only really encountered when watching several clips of Home Movies on MNmore, keep up the good work dude! Your comedy gold is incredible :]

I always figured that you just made a drawing and motion tracked it onto a person in real life. Guess i was kinda right

I hope you never change, Joel. You have a great personality.

This thumbnail is a true Diavolo moment

Really appreciate that you shared your way of making video!

people be saying this is easy. i thought the same thing on automotive bodywork. . . .

0:14 I literally have the same monitor?! the EXACT sony monitor with the cruves!?

This guy makes Ebsynth popular again....

oh wow this is amazing joel

I had seen your animations and I never could have imagined that making them is this simple.

I just discovered this channel. It's so good for watching while baked.

looks like ugly america

This was super interesting, cause I could always tell the animation style had.. "something" that made it how it is but I couldn't really understand what. But your explanation about why the animation tends to glitch out made me realize how you focus on keeping still, which adds that kinda unsettling and "awkward" aura to the scenes but in a very entertaining way.

trueadventure man

He is already a Legend

first 25 seconds is how i feel about pokemon sword

Subarashi desu

I hope I find a Joel in my life someday

you are so awesome and fun and a simplistic genius.

This entire thing looks like a fever dream

I don't even know who you are, and yet this is very helpful.

how do you decide what a shot is? is it 24 pictures? or when theres some significant movement?

please do more of the rpg xD that was so fun

I owe you a pint of beer

Lets make animations , hazaaaa!

I see he put it under SKETCH comedy....(badum tsh)

danm thought he was using a Snapchat filter for a while there
