3D CG Animation " A Dragon and an Elf "【自主制作アニメ】

[Henbot]

well done for what you did, considering your not a professional. Only thing I would add is that the characters at time looked far to rigid in a pose or how they moved, its not our natural state to be straight when it comes to movements, we are always shaped by curves and gravity will always play a role as well. But well done !

[Knastus257]

Lol at the Orc with a Shotgun. I was like "Warhammer? Yeah!"

[KielerSchlamperich]

Dungeon Keeper? 

[hippopotimoosemoo]

I like it. One person doing this on their own? I have to agree, props honey. You got Talent. I've been an artist for, well, all my life, and I can't animate this well. I wish you had some sound actors to help you out tho. You could do anything you wanted then.

[ghidghid]

@hippopotimoosemoo Thanks. Yes, I think I want voice actor sometimes. But, visitors of my channel are almost foreigner - about 90%. So I don't know what language I have to use.

[BebeSissy]

almost Avatar! nice job! :)

[ghidghid]

@BebeSissy Thanks! But it's an exaggeration :-)

[ZeusDeusEx]

Pixar studio does better

[ghidghid]

@ZeusDeusEx I know

[sepiasiren]

@ZeusDeusEx Pixar studio is a 100 man team of animators and millions of dollars of equipment--I would say that one person doing something this kick ass is noteworthy and shows his talent--jealous much ass?

[ZeusDeusEx]

@sepiasiren How exactly does that in any way disprove my point? Lol, retard.

[BlackFuryDragonn]

*golf clap*

[LigerDragon]

That was amazing beyond words. Great story and all. WOW! BRAVO! BRAVO! More please.

[ghidghid]

@LigerDragon Thanks, you love Dragons ?

[EddieShadw]

WOW! just wow!

truly amazing!!!!

Bravo!

Bravo!

[ghidghid]

@EddieShadw I really appreciate all your message !

[kakstiefel]

echt gut gemacht

[ghidghid]

@kakstiefel danke schön

[xYoCryn]

What program did you use to do the animation on? I have DazStudio4 Pro for the models and Bryce for some awesome backgrounds...but I don't know what to purchase when it comes to making animation like you did...any suggestions? And Poser, is it something you would recommend?

[ghidghid]

@xYoCryn I made it with Poser. I can't use Daz4 well, because there is no Japanese manual of Daz4. If my English is good, I think I'm using Daz4.

[ShellySummers]

@ghidghid I just started using poser as my regular animating program. How did you make the smoke and fog?

[ghidghid]

@ShellySummers Thank you for a question, I make them with particleillusion SE

[ShellySummers]

@ghidghid how did you make the dragon eat the energy orb? trying to do something similar to that and can not figure out how to do it.

[ghidghid]

@ShellySummers step1:I build a scene that dragon eats a point light. step2:I added a particle of energy ball.step3:I added a layer of Dragon's upper jaw

[ghidghid]

@ghidghid step1:I build a scene that dragon eats a point light. step2:I added a particle of energy ball.step3:I added a layer of Dragon's upper jaw

[andrewh817]

Beautiful music and beautiful animation!

[ghidghid]

@andrewh817 Thanks!

[TheMoulinrouge32]

Just like Avatar! XD

[ghidghid]

@TheMoulinrouge32 Yes, I made this movie after watching Avator

[AceTrainerKayden]

what program did you use to model the girl? 

[ghidghid]

@AceTrainerKayden She is a ready-made model, Aiko 4 of Daz3d

[omgCAPSlol]

The first time i heard that music...i was like:

SPACE...THE FINAL FRONTIER!!!!

[ghidghid]

@omgCAPSlol star trec ?

[Tycoun1]

This looks like the intro to some dragon on human porn.

[gusthebroken2]

Realy AWESOME ! ~my compliments ! =) gus

[martn2006tex]

Awsome Video,thumbs up

[ghidghid]

@martn2006tex Thanks!

[WolfySnackrib666]

hahaha, this is like the intro to a really old game, like Heroes of Might and Magic 3

[amigapower57]

c'est triste



[ghidghid]

@amigapower57 Merci pour regarder

[blulander1969]

Loved it shows poser can be used for good story telling if you use its strenghth and weaknesses to your advantages. WELL DONE it takes a level of commitment to complete 1 minute nevermind 5 1/2

[ghidghid]

@blulander1969 Yes, poser is easy to use, but has many weaknesses.

[2565wilber]

I can see her panties

[PrinceOF9Imagination]

Final Fantasy games have the best CG ever!! :)

[creubend]

1:57 BOOM headshot

[Omar7270]

this was awesome but the ending made me so sad i was hoping that at any moment they would wake up

[ghidghid]

@Omar7270 Yes, that is the first idea of the ending.

[Tophxx]

This was wonderfully done, though, I cried a bit at the end. Fantastic work.

[ghidghid]

@Tophxx Thank you for crying for them

[simsdragon1231]

BRISINGR you capture the dragon perfectly and the e3lf is swift

[ghidghid]

@simsdragon1231 I know it's a dragon language !

[KDol0]

FUS ROH DAH!

[ghidghid]

@KDol0 Sorry, I don't know what you mean, is it a genre ?

[HerbJon]

@ghidghid It's dragon language from Tes:Skyrim. ;)

[ghidghid]

@HerbJon @MrsMia1995 @Dv9UnKnoWn3 Thank you for showing me a dragon language !

[MrsMia1995]

@ghidghid this is what the guy from Skyrim says to push all people away :)

[Dv9UnKnoWn3]

@

Its from a game called Skyrim.

[nzigen31]

Just like a ps1 game movie (:

[ghidghid]

@nzigen31 It brings back memories.

[TayzCompz]

you can never replace someone you love...

[ghidghid]

@TayzCompz i wish you a merry christmas

[godserens]

reminds me of hentai

[thramagen]

this is a good movie to kill yourself after watching

[jmsarltd]

Fantastic piece, whatever the meaning, whatever the ending, the story is great, epic, and the animation is on that same scale.

[ghidghid]

@jmsarltd Thank you for giving my movie the greatest praise !

[BeeAnimations]

Awesome indeed - great story , depth in detail & character design .

[ghidghid]

@BeeAnimations Thanks! but they are ready-made characters by daz3d

[centurywarlord]

Where are them spesh mahreens? She should call em' to kill orks. Good animation, keep it up.

[ghidghid]

@centurywarlord Because, they and I don't know what spesh mahreens are.

[DIYMakerman]

Love it. This must have taken a long time to make. I can't imagine why anyone would click a dislike icon .

[ghidghid]

@DIYMakerman Thanks! Some people said they don't like ending

[DIYMakerman]

@ghidghid It's a love story, and not all love stories have happy endings. Now, I'm not certain of the exact relationship between the elf and dragon, but the love and devotion they have for each other is clear, as is the common commitment they have to fight a powerful foe against all odds. The ying and the yang have joined as one force, yet in 2 bodies, and while they die in their struggle against evil, they don't lose because they're together. At least, that's how I see it.

[ghidghid]

@DIYMakerman Yes, your interpretation is almost perfect.

Thank you for watching thoroughly !

[Pestinha92]

For a moment I thought this was going to have dragon porn...

[ghidghid]

@Pestinha92 Yes, it's a reason of the view counts of this movie :-)

[anystarpub]

Also, would you say Poser is one of the easiest for a beginner vs trying Maya, Cinema 4D, etc. Your video looks great. This is what I want to achieve.

[ghidghid]

@anystarpub Poser is easiest and cheapest, I think.

[anystarpub]

I was told Poser can only be used to create facial features. What did you use for your backgrounds, etc? I'm a newbie...

[ghidghid]

@anystarpub Thank you for a question.

Backgrounds were created with Poser too.

[uncannypk]

FINALLY! An elf with no pointy ears!

[ghidghid]

@uncannypk Maybe she is a mutation :-)

[uncannypk]

@ghidghid This whole all-elves-have-pointy-ears business has just gotten a little dated. That shouldn't be their only defining characteristic! I don't remember Tolkien ever mentioning his elves having pointy ears! It's nice to see some originality for a change! This is awesome!

[fernandoarcearavena]

lo mejor de la animacion 3D digital abierta triste 

[ghidghid]

@fernandoarcearavena Gracias

[KosmoAntoninus]

Take that, Shrek!

[ghidghid]

@KosmoAntoninus You remember Shrek ?

[nanographics21]

nice

[ghidghid]

@nanographics21 Thanks

[cscdigitalgraphics]

Hard to believe I haven't seen this till now. This is great work. You always do good work.

[ghidghid]

@cscdigitalgraphics Thanks ! BTW, are you a professional movie maker ?

[cscdigitalgraphics]

@ghidghid We have done feature film work as well. However, most of our works are for marketing or presentation purposes. I hope this helps.

[SeaLavender1]

So beautiful I cried when I saw it

[ghidghid]

@SeaLavender1 Thank you for crying for them

[snjorRefur948]

i know it's a stupid question...but what are you guys aiming to be when your learning this?

[ghidghid]

@snjorRefur948 Thank you for a question. Some books and self-education.

[megaman12321]

@ghidghid By any chance, can you direct a link or write the book title? I'm trying to learn animation, but I don't have a good starting point.

[ghidghid]

@megaman12321 Your motivation is great ! But all books are written in Japanese. So, I can write the title only in Japanese "FLASH アニメーション制作バイブル". It means "FLASH animation making bible"

[megaman12321]

@ghidghid Dang. Wonder if its translated. When I do ever get started, (probably going to have to take a class), I'll send a link. Hopefully by then you'd still be doing animation.

[SuperGauss100]

two more years,im off to college to learn this myslef

[ghidghid]

@SuperGauss100 I'm looking forward to watching your movie at the year after next

[clarastral]

[ghidghid]

@fxmross muchas gracias !

[animatigital]

Fantastic!!! I know how much work that is, and you have really excelled! I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your vids. You have both talent and dedication. :-)

[ghidghid]

@animatigital I really appreciate your message, thanks a lot. But, I think I have little dedication :-)

[themadhatter10771]

ok so a dragon an elf/human,ogres,then....helico­pters?

[idinho]

cool,when the arrow struck ,is there reactor thing like 3ds max or you just animate the jump of the victims?

thnx

[ghidghid]

@idinho Thanks! I just animate it. Joint a jump motion.

[paczy]

she is definetely not an elf

[ghidghid]

@paczy Thank you for a comment, maybe she is a half

[Pertrosfoliea]

she's clearly a human thou...

[ghidghid]

@Pertrosfoliea Thought ?

[Pertrosfoliea]

@ghidghid yeah, that's what I ment:P

[Wyzdm]

From an artistic standpoint this is amazing, the story is awesome! TY for posting your excellent work.

[ghidghid]

@Wyzdm TY for giving me a nice comment !

[TheADALWULF]

this is beautiful, i would love to know how to do this, but alas my computer skills are basic =( thank you for sharing this work!

[ghidghid]

@TheADALWULF Wow! You gave the first comment from Barbados!

[DragonNadder]

what Daz dragon did you use and that was sad I love dragons! =(

[ghidghid]

@DragonNadder Thank you for a comment, he is a Millennium Dragon LE.

[3DPIXLA]

Wow your work is so impressive, I've never seen such good quality work done with Poser/Daz stuff, I am learning these and hope to be as good someday.

[ghidghid]

@3DPIXLA OK, I'm looking forward to watching your movie on YouTube

[auroraaquitaine]

it's a good start but there is no weight to the dragon as it flies. The wings move but not the body like it should. Interesting story line though. I love the mix of fantasy and sci fi

[ghidghid]

@auroraaquitaine Thanks, I'll study hard.

[auroraaquitaine]

@ghidghid Great! You know, when I get done with animation school too I'll post something of mine on here so you can see it. I don't know that it'll be as cool looking, but we'll see. :) Good luck!

[ghidghid]

@auroraaquitaine I'm looking forward to watching your animation on YouTube !

[kendallies]

An elf with a gun... Wow... Ending is sad... But... Otherwise awesome

[ghidghid]

@kendallies Thanks, please don't cry :-)

[Bandersnatch41]

This reminds me of avatar. this was beyond belif good. i cryed at the ending though.

[ghidghid]

@Bandersnatch41 Yes! I made this movie after watching avator

[Aussiedoglover13]

I love this animation and LOVE the dragon :) so sad tho......but hey good story line...i think you should make a movie....like a actual movie :P thatll be kool

[ghidghid]

@Aussiedoglover13 Yes, but I need higher spec PC to create actual movie !

[MyoTheVampyre]

Marvellous work! :D Simply amazing!! :D

[ghidghid]

@MyoTheVampyre Thanks, Vampyre

[Dragimal]

Oh gosh, that was so amazingly, beautifully sad!

[ghidghid]

@Dragimal Thanks, do you love your dragon ?

[crangesJ]

sooo, how can you cry too this?

[SapphireWolflily]

@crangesJ How can you NOT cry at this would be a better question

[crangesJ]

@SapphireWolflily well i suppose the chick is so hot how can you not get turned on by this is even better than any question.

[SapphireWolflily]

@crangesJ ..................

[yoshifan277]

The ending brought a tear to my eye... And i'm a guy. Stuff that can make me emotional is fucking fantastic.

[ghidghid]

@yoshifan277 Thank you for watching seriously !

[yoshifan277]

You are an Animation God.

[ghidghid]

@yoshifan277 No God :-)

[yoshifan277]

@ghidghid Yes God.

[skatebourddd]

You edited this with poser? is it free?

[ghidghid]

@skatebourddd Ｔｈａｎｋ you for a comment. IT's not free. I don't know how much can you get it, ask google.

[pxdud]

this is an ok animation, my only problem was that the graphical detail varied greatly throughout - e.g. at 1:55 we have the dragon flying upward, and it looks terrible, then a second later we get graphics which look very similar to the stuff i have played in games from 1995-1999. and then at 2:19 we have that airship thing, and the graphics on that were more late playstation 2 era

[Tenchi10]

Ok... Who gave the medieval midget girl a gun? And...if she's an elf, why isn't she smaller than those Orcs? Completely unrealistic!

[ghidghid]

@Tenchi10 Thank you for an advice. Those are my mistake.

[Swidhelm]

@ghidghid They are not mistakes. Your world, your rules.

[ghidghid]

@Swidhelm Txs!

[Goldsection]

wohow.. very good.

What do you tink of mine?

[legacy36o]

Very nicely done but i feel i must point out a flaw.

from 1:47 till around 1:50 you showed 2 orks. both dead with arrows

trouble was that one was shot from front and one evidently from behind. Its not very noticeable but i still think you should keep that in mind in future movies. very good otherwise though

and also how long did it take you to make this

[ghidghid]

@legacy36o Thank you for a good advice. I am glad for you to watch such a detail.

[legacy36o]

[darkstein3]

This why technology will never defeat magic!

[ghidghid]

@darkstein3 Thank you for a comment. I will do my best to defeat magic with my technology.

[figment121968]

Superb! Great story, and as always, it was beautifully executed...

[ghidghid]

@figment121968 Thanks!

[DarkRegina]

that made me sad :(( but it was good ^_^

[ghidghid]

@DarkRegina Thanks!

[RobloxNormalVideos]

I Always lagged in at 0:19

[ghidghid]

@RobloxNormalVideos Thank you for watching! Was your traffic line cause ?

[RyuuAMcCF]

Awesome work, Ghidghid!! I wish I could make videos like that!

[ghidghid]

@RyuuAMcCF Thanks! But was your dragon dead ?

[RyuuAMcCF]

@ghidghid In my vid? well....bit of a story behind that. If I can ever make my videos like you can, we'll see :D

How long did it take for you to do this?

[ghidghid]

@RyuuAMcCF about 3 month
