tae

[seetherlee]

I think you guys need to spend a little extra time on your modeling and rigging.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yeah, mostly time and schedule issues. Thanks!

- TAE

[2pac4life400]

oh yea i 4got u cant c me

[Peppylex1234]

I mean how long does it take. Sorry, I made a typo. xD

[TheAnimationEmpire]

I don't know. I guess we averaged 2 seconds of animation an hour. But that's just the animation part. =^)

Thanks!

- TAE

[Peppylex1234]

Lol this is amazing as usual! You guys must work your tails off on these. How does it take? 5/5

[thewhulk]

good vid still just get some dudes to help u on this one (p.s dont ask me i have a horrible voice when its recordet i have a crapy mic)

[thewhulk]

friut has never liked bugs

p.s get some guys to help u do the voices

get a guy who can swhitch voice fast or record after the made the 3D animation

[AshyJakk]

This looks like a video game.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

It certainly should be a videogame. =^)

Thanks!

- TAE

[TheAnimationEmpire]

AJ!!! Thanks for the compliment! Please go to our channel and vote for our 2 new Fox animations! Thanks!

- TAE

[AshyJakk]

Hey, thanks for responding LITERALLY a year later. I appreciate it.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Hahahaha! Well, we also responded a year ago. =^)

Thanks for watching!

- TAE

[dangsterr]

I once tried to do a 3d animation... I couldn't even model the characters...I seriously need to study 3d animation cause it's so cool!

[BlackVen0m]

ahhahahah agent paul pineapple ..Plupp in the eye then hes like AHHHHHHH AHHHH running around all crazy lol ahhahah

[REALGREYBLUE]

Yes seems much clearer. :) Same great fruitiness too yet tastes freshly picked from your animation tree. umm I don't know 5 stars!!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Hahahaha!!!!

- TAE

[desktopdoodlz]

nice strongbad techno song at the middle :P

[EdddieTM]

lol cool

[bayulebih]

love the character animation..

the modeling looks simple and nice, so does the rendering i think it's so efficient lol.. looks great..

but maybe i don't like the color i don't know why.. maybe coz it's compressed or something..

nice one though!

but ummm.. bug vs fruit...?! XD ... lol man.

[mxo92]

haha cute

[weeeman45]

lol

[markous57]

Not my kind of story but you have a lot of talent. I have a long way to go to get that good. Great job.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

What story? LOL

I wouldn't accuse any of our Fruits VS Bugs vids of having stories, this one the least of all!!! =^)

Thanks! Are a 3D animator?

- TAE

[programmerguyviewer]

Lol, I loved it.

[sebbef]

dont talk bullshit about this movie,you all know,it takes month to make movies like this,so dont talk bullshit about this ;) good animation

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yeah, we intended Extra Fruity for 150 kids, not 170,000 people (both versions combined). LOL. So we understand if people don't like it. =^)

Thanks!

- TAE

[silentassassin4u]

nice:)

looks like the opening intro to a game

[Ravenstryk]

I'm gonna point at you...with my fingah!!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We're actually working on more "adult" animations now. Thanks!

- TAE

[scolen3]

I am inspired at your work, i am just now getting into 3d creation and animation using autodesk 3ds max 9, and all i am really learning from is a book, 3ds max 9 bible, and internet sources. Seeing that you have a degree in nintendo animation and all that crap, i think its going to be quite a challange to get to your skill level. If you could, i need some decent sources and ideas to learn without costing much money, preferably nothing.

-scott

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Sure. I'll send you a message.

- TAE

[js100serch]

why fruits?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Fruit of the Spirit

- TAE

[RJRockstah]

I'm a 3d animator. Does anybody know an animation studio in NewYork? I'm looking for 1. pls reply! Tnx!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Why NY?

- TAE

[RJRockstah]

Coz i'm planning to stay there and I need a job there. Do you know 1?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Search "3D Animation NY" in Google or _Live.com_

Plus, if you need to learn, you can intern remotely with us.

- TAE

[RJRockstah]

TNX! Really Appreciate it! May I know the details about ur offer of internship?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Absolutely. Sent you a message. Thanks!

- TAE

[sandorlev]

nice

[vegaboy89]

I want to learn this =P

What school do you recomend me to go and learn this?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We went to DigiPen, Nintendo's school. The truth is that nowadays you might be able to find a solid Maya or 3DS Max program in your state. Florida also has Ringling, which is a great Maya school.

But the cheapest way to learn is to go to Blender dot org and teach yourself (painfully).

- TAE

[niespod2]

What kind of degree do you need to do this? I made an animation in high school using 3D-Viz and I really liked it.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Post it! Um, people can do this without degrees. Those people are way too disciplined, though. =^)

We went to Nintendo's DigiPen school and got AAs. They have BAs there now. Thanks!

- TAE

[Flugan91]

yeah lern t hem how tod o

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We went to school for this shtuff. =^)

- TAE

[Flugan91]

haha yep there theve got their answear

[Jonte135]

Wow cool, how do you do it?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

3D studio max. It's like clay modeling and stop motion, but on a computer. So you use your mouse instead of your hands.

Thanks!

- TAE

[FlatLine842]

Wtf is this crap? A 2 year old could do better using the HL2 engine... Hell, the first episodes of Red vs. Blue were better, and they didn't have any professional equipment for sound capture.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

I couldn't find your animations. Did you post them on another channel? Without them, I have nothing to compare our work to. Let us know when you post your 3D animations! Thanks!

- TAE

[coolyemi]

how did you do it want to learn

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Cool. We'll message you.

[scolen3]

wow are you retarded? This is an animation from scratch, not using an existing game where the people look up and down to make it look like they are talking.

[blackandblueanimegrl]

wow, that was just bad...

i want to be a 3D animator. i'm sorry, how long have you been using 3D animation?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

LOL Thanks!

What was bad about it?

I'll shoot you a message to see if you want to learn.

Let's see. 1997. So some of us have been doing it for about 10 years. We also have degrees from Nintendo's animation school.

- TAE

[grumpygrim]

Reminded me a bit of a yogurt advert I once saw...

Anyway! ;) I can't even begin to fathom how you made this - it's amazing! And dispite what the other comments may say, I thought it was pretty hilarious :3 I liked the evil bugs. 5*s

[sheyenne95]

hehe

fruit

[EliaBTH100]

stupied

[TheAnimationEmpire]

So stupid that we named it Extra Fruity for that very reason!

- TAE

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Don't bother clicking on the name; the account got deleted. Mwahahahaha! Death to the porn spammers!

- TAE

[basslinegenerator]

i like all except the lightning and materials

nice nonsens animation :) like it

[mre2u2]

Fair animation, bad voice and synch. Is this a BETA?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

No, this is just a silly project intended to have bad voices and synch. =^)

Thanks!

[Lawisunfair]

pineapples are the king of fruits ;D

[marsbrain]

Can you make a simple program with blender too?And if yes how?plz tell me if you know.thanx

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yes... maybe. Everything you see here can be done with Blender as well. We used 3D Studio Max, but Maya, Max, and Blender all look great if you know how to use them and put the time into them.

Go check out blender dot org. Of course, if you intern for us, we'll help you out a little more. =^)

[mcasual]

bravo :)

my favorite scene is the conference room and i think i found funny the same bits people mentioned in the previous comments - i'll go watch your other works :)

[Natan2012]

what's the title of the music from this movie?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Hmmm. It started with "The Fruits VS Bugs Theme Song" and then had "Strong Bad Techno" from Homestar Runner and we grabbed an open source ambient song for the meeting room sequence. Thanks!

[MagentaWinx]

so THATS how they made open season.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yup. 3D animation. I believe Sony did that one.

[Rapchick33]

lol!!!

[NandM17]

Thats confusing

[xeroaxlvx]

very

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Sorry. What's confusing? The reply I gave you? Sorry if it is! We use 3D Studio Max for this. Unfortunately it's around $3,500. Fortunately, we also use Blender. Also, fortunately, that's free, and it's just as powerful. You can find it at Blender dot org. Open the description on the right of this video to find the link to their website. Any specific questions? Hope this helped! Thanks for watching!

[NandM17]

How u make this.if this is free send me the main program

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We used 3D Studio Max. A free version is Blender. The link is in the description. Go to our channel and shoot us a message if you think you'd be interested in an internship. Thanks!

[resistencia3d]

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Goal achieved! Thanks!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We can do more than that. We'll work with you and teach you. I'm sending you a message.

[Tbed]

Oh i forgot ...you can't see me

[TheAnimationEmpire]

I can see you! I've set up a virtual camera in your computer that digitally records your image! You're about 19, you live in Haiti, and... that's all your profile says. =^)

Thanks!

[Tbed]

Thanks! Interesting; we'll send you a message.

[masterchief3k]

HAHAH i love the strong bad techno!!

[lllstrikesmember2]

Please subscribe. Thanks!

[soulfulalone]

Its awesome that you guys managed to do all this. I am wondering how long did this take you to do?

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Good question. It took us over a year to make 40 minutes of this stuff, but a lot of it was just one person working on it. It ended with 8 animators for a couple of months. This particular edit was just a bunch of us playing around. That's why it's so Extra Fruity. =^)

Hey, Fruits VS Bugs Episode 2 of 2 is coming out today!!!

[Bushdoctor68]

Guys, you need writers.

The animations are great, but I haven't got a clue what you're doing with the rest.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Thanks for complimenting our animation!

We've got professional writers who've worked for years in the entertainment industry for large companies. In other words, all horrible writing is 100% intentional. =^)

Thanks!

[imdubsfriend]

im going to point at u. with my finga!!! lmao

[TheAnimationEmpire]

We just released a new Digital Short, our first VLog sketch. It's called Following Directions Part 1. Take a look. Just click our name, TheAnimationEmpire, and check it out.

Thanks! Please subscribe!

[fevarte23]

lmao

[carolineskomix]

Hey! At 3:00 is that supposta' be a Flux Capacitor from the movie "Back to the Future"? :D

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yes! LOL

It's listed in the references in the description as "Back to the Future." I think you may be the first person to see that. =^)

We made it for a time machine used in a different production, and we wanted to fit it in somewhere. So, there you go. =^)

[klpeekl2000]

I agree, your work is very good and I know from experiance that 3D animation isnt easy. If you guys had the oppertuinty to an 80 million dollar budget I think you could do first class animation like pixar and dreamworks.

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Hey, thanks, klpeekl2000!!! That was a nice compliment. =^)

[wackeyeddie]

tell me how to get what you use to make them plz

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Sure. It's in the description. Go to blender dot org and download Blender for free. Then you can edit with the free Microsoft Movie Maker. We actually used 3D Studio Max, but it costs about $3,000 and it's about as powerful. Please subscribe! Thanks!

[ente111786]

Where's my wallet? my bus pass? lol LMAO

[LovingTaSing]

yahhhh...... COOL Video.

[nickdud10]

dude this was awesome.... how did you make it?!?!?!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Software: 3D Studio Max; more info in description.

Process: It's like clay modeling, but you use a mouse.

Thanks!

[OMGUIDIOT]

wtf haha he has a game cube!

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Yes! He does have a GameCube! LOL

I forgot about that! We are all hardcore Nintendo fans, including the guy who modeled the system, Aric Norine. Aric actually won a contest IGN had for geekiest Nintendo fan. Now he's working on the Mario Striker series up in Canadia. Good times.

I was checking out examples of this program and yours is by far and away the best I've seen - great job!!!

[Eriil]

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Hahahaha!!! Yes. You can't see what they are in this resolution though:

- Female Bugs

- Lady Bugs

[brenndon1]

[TheAnimationEmpire]

No. This one is made with 3DS Max.

Honestly, Blender is the toughest one to learn, but you've got to keep plugging away. We'll send you a message.

[grademaster12312]

i love your stuff make more please:}

[TheAnimationEmpire]

Thanks Grademaster! We definitely will.

[masterkhufu]

good concept, however, work on the dialogue and the script. good attempts at humor, but develop a story line with more continuity before you add the rest in. also, if feasible, improve the audio quality of the voices (tone and lining up with mouths and such.)

[TheAnimationEmpire]

There is no story here. We also paid no attention to the mouths lining up (as you can see). We did pay attention to that more in Fruits VS Bugs. This is great feedback. You're absolutely right. Thanks!
