"HERO" Blender 2D Open Movie with Grease Pencil

well hello welcome to be here and I want to talk about the hero project yeah the hero project is the first 2d animation of a movie project with the support of blender cloud so for me is a gift right so the first thing that we need about the hero project is that the hero the hero movie is not the project itself the project is the equally special tool this is useful in the open movies is put the forts and development in one part of blender too to get to get this part so excuse me so the hero is just excuse to show the potential of this pencil to the world right and make it to make it read it for production right this is this is common in the in the urban movies right but it's not just about that right it's not just about that as you know right blender is about people right when I start mmm 11 years ago with blender I thought oh blender is free no money so it's good for my wallet right but after all these 11 years working with blended I realized that it's not just a slogan right well it is that is about people it's about users developers of a movie the blender comfort the blender subscribers the community right this is important thing this is important thing for me so with this thing in mind hero the real goal is to say hello and welcome to a new kind of people to blender that the 2d animators right that is the key for me right I have Lasser to remark this right is so important for me because if if we made a great software to make 2d animation animation but the 2d animators don't embrace this software to make 2d animation it's cool it's red we have a nice and super powerful to the animator to the animation tool but for me the key is that introduced to blend a new kind of user that they truly to the animators to make to the production for me is just the ponies is the key right in this with this goal in mind the blender 2.8 the workflow project is perfect for that because the work for you in the work flow project we have workspaces PacifiCorp space for 2d animators we have our room to create a nice interface for 2d animators and workflow to to feel to try to feel to to to the early makers quite comfortable making 2d animation because I really think I really believe that making 2d animation in a third environment is the future I really think because I don't know if it will be maybe will be blender or Maya or to moon 2010 or oculus I don't know but I really think that the future of 2d animation tools is working in after the environment is so so powerful right so to reach this goal there are two different states now Puerto in the grease pencil project the first I call it the development right now okay but always this development the second part is the hero of a movie that is - so to the world - so - to the animators to the industry the possibilities the potential of grease pencil right and real important thing is training after after hero of a movie because if we want introduced to the animators in England to make to the animation they need they need good training useful training - - to get into which pencil this mean video tutorials on internet maybe seminars and maybe training in studios or company - how to use blender grease pencil for me are this for me these are the three the three main steps to reach this goal to introduce - to the animators in blender right so this is about the big picture about the project so what about the hero of the movie itself right the hero movie is yes a way it's a medium so the potential of use pencil and there is a two minutes animation in a trailer format okay because a trailer format allows you to a different set of visual different shots and texts and situations to show the potential of of a blender right so okay so this is this is the the idea make a to the two minutes animation in a trailer format so now we have a try we have the animatic knock word denim attic of the of the hero project so let me show you maybe the sound [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] okay that's the idea it's not a it's not a full shirt right it's just a trailer to splain this this kind of turret a peek a lot of action with some mesh okay but the idea is half nervous with the bike with my English the we have a lot different shots okay to show the potential of English pencil for example there are many short are truly 2d in animation and other shot with with a lot of camera movement and 3d integration so it's quite ambitious right so but I think is if we is will we work what about the team right the team love this 16 are me and Xavier this is a really nice anime animator and design and ever in we have Maria in the design and Sergey in animation okay we have a couple of collaborators like Rafa Cano and well well too bad working outside or in my school collaboration in in the in the in the project they the good fancy development team they great Antonio Antonio Antonio Navarro is is a really big piece in the Indies in this project of course in Joshua allegories is the original original program the developer of this pencil and in the artistic side Nicola and this side right mattias Mendiola and myself right so just to finish I want to show you some concepts and design some final designs concert the finals and about the about the characters right we have bane right this is for cut this is a research to to try to get the right character to vein the same thing Farquaad okay this is the the other the other little work the other people right the Atlantis Atlantis people right okay some research about the the character on the safes right the queen of this theory on some designs about the the planes right the idea is make the planes in 3d and convert to responsive right so in this point you can tweak and redraw make a lot of thing because I don't wanna for me it's a challenge I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't like it when when you see 2d and 3d in the same space and you notice doctor this is CDI I try to keep seamless all this between of this world right okay and some finals stagings right about the day for the animatic okay so just to finish where are where are the main problems in this in this production in this project right now the main problem is that we are working with the unfinished finish at somewhere like 2.8 right now of course it's not finished so I don't know what happened the good thing is the the good thing is the the grease pencil tool is quite developed it's quite it's quite good to make this this animation right to make this this animation shirt but I don't know what the 30 the second thing the second thing is that it's my first two the animation short so for me it's a challenge thing because in in the production steps right but I think it will be it will be nice and the the last note is right now this pencil right now is have the tools all the tools to make this animation what yes yes the main thing the main thing thinking in to the animator is we need improve the driving experience for to the animators because right now is it's okay but is not so comfortable they make fine-tuned drawings right now English pencil for me we we don't need more spectacular particular features like right now in English pencil we need improve the the uses penis in drawing in the drawing session when when I when when you are working right so that's it so thanks for coming [Applause]
