Arcane Ep 1

Thats a great explenation, thank you.

there are some documentary videos out there where they explain the art and production behind Arcane but as a 3D artist myself it is mostly 3D! To really break it down, the characters are all 3D, but the models textures are handpainted (this is the biggest reason why it takes SO long, they have to adjust this for extremely varied scenes/scenarios + the sheer number of character models they must have made and painted) So most of the shading and lighting is handled by 3D (sometimes it has to be manually done, which just is insane to think about as a 3D artist) but when using something so stylized its not as simple as 'let the machine do the work' you have to build a kind of blueprint to tell it how to work and then artists have to learn how to 'tweak' that blueprint as needed per scene. Its a lot of work!! As for the backgrounds, most props that are moved around/used in scene are definitely 3D but a lot of the backgrounds are 2D painted with some panoramic effects. This helps save some time, but it does still take quite a while as just about everything has been hand painted to some degree but thank god Riot funds this shit, we would not see such a lovingly crafted art piece otherwise, especially for the time and work required to see it done.

Fortiche production, a french studio made this, and it took them seven years, of course during that time they did work for League of Legends trailers and special vidoes, but they created the production pipeline that makes it works, and making next season took them 3 years its coming in november. And it have to be mix of extremly well animeated 3d models and hand put shadows on them, but they must have some kind of technology that helps with shadows, because i cant belive that all of this can be done by hand. This would be stupid amount of work to do just by hand. But i also can be wrong, i have not idea how they made every frame of this show looks like painting without some cool technology in pipeline.

Wold class violinist Ray Chen and Sting made some OST for this, it's great

Unknowable

This, the spider verse movies and of all things, puss in boots 2 lol, are all on the same level of insane 3d animation I think

Camera movement is insanely hard to replicate in 2D, it's why shows are increasingly using 3D elements. Arcane has great camera work though.

LegionaresCZ

Please dont remind me of that bro. The movies were great but the show...

Fernando Zuniga

Also the animation is a mix of stylized 3D animation with 2D hand-drawn effects layering over top. The thing that makes this look sooo good is the model animation and camera movement. The french animation studio Fortiche did this show and they have created something nobody had seen before. Props to them and Riot for bringing such a marvelous world and story to life.

Second season's almost here and I can rewatch Arcane with Tony? Hell yeah!

Sting has done a track for this look foward to it

Adding Arcane to the lineup is literally the reason I upgraded my membership. Arcane is that good.

Ryan Pitcher

This season took 6 years to make, but there was a hiatus during the production where no work was done. Animation itself took 2 years.

Riku Toiviainen

well you are talking about 2 very different mediums, this show is 100% cgi animation with the artist drawing/ painting over the cgi to give it that style. it means they have the freedom to use the camera how ever they wish without an issue.

Delete this, while a mild one, telling which episodes to wait for is still a spoiler

Arcane is awesome, so excited to watch your journey with this. The story line, characters, voice actors, etc... are all amazing. You're going to love it.

Jet Man

Absolutely love this show so much! Can't wait to see his reaction to episode 3

Cameron Sunken

i get the feeling your an enjoyer of 3d animated stuff, and i cant think of any better looking 3d animated shows than arcane

TheGoblerTrainsMovinIn

I know everyone was hyped for DanDaDan but I'm glad this went in too. I was more interested in this one.

Lixien

Itโ€™s straight up the best animation bar MAYBE the two spider-verse movies. And honestly itโ€™s not surprising with how much it costs

Matteo Morellato

Another win for the cultured ones boys. Just wait till we finally rope him into bebop and Vox Machina

Avalon

This show is so good. Hope you enjoy it.

Jose Ortiz

Probably the best non-Japanese animation I've ever seen. Hope you enjoy the rest!

Katakuriko

Hahaga, all good

DrumRollTony

I like how the "camera" movement is done for this show, anime also has that but 95% of the time the "camera" doesn't "move" idk what's the right terminology for this but you get the point

kinetic98

Youโ€™re doing this show after all??? LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO! You have no idea how good this is gonna get (โ€ฆalso idk how I didnโ€™t even notice it on the schedule lmao)

Chelly

This was a great pick up considering that the second season is right around the corner and that the first season was widely acclaimed deservedly so

Mohamed

This show has been on my "To watch" list for ages. My brother frequently tells me and my father that we need to watch it. Glad to be starting this journey alongside this Patreon community.

Jet Man

You're gonna love this series not just for the excellent storytelling, but the music is amazing

Halo S

They really broke new ground in their animation here. The backgrounds all use 3D as a base but then are handpainted over and reprojected back as textures again to create the effect. It's actually insane the amount of work needed to make it look like that

FullHeart

The voice actress for the enforcer lady is Shohreh Aghdashloo, you might know her from The Expanse sci-fi show on Amazon Prime, or as one of the Quarrian leaders in Mass Effect 3.

LegionaresCZ

Oh shit you're right. European studios look like they're trying to keep AI out somewhat, maybe there is hope for animation. I was trying to get into the industry and in the US it's bleak right now

JoeyGuy7

Isn't this a French Studio?

Leaky Peach

This, with no exaggeration, will be one of best shows you watch here.

Dixon Hale

You got Riots music team, animation team, and backstory for League of Legends characters that people have been wanting for YEARS. And they delivered on all fronts!

Belac

If you are amazed now, i have some good news for you...it get's better

Niklas Neumann

I would watch this 3 times over when it came out because I was watching it with my friends, my siblings, and my cousins. It's a certified banger!

Belac

The best comment I've heard about this opening is from an Imagine Dragons hater "It's the only song of theirs I like, because they're right, I DO want to be their enemy!" lmao Arcane is awesome on all fronts though, this'll be a good ride.

LegionaresCZ

This will be one of your favorite shows. Not just in anime but any medium. And the sound track kicks ass.

Jay R.

Based on what you like on this Patreon, I bet by the end of the series, Arcane can easily be in your top tier. Easily.
