8:16

you just a couple to get me primed to

8:17

like what we're looking for

8:20

[Music]

8:26

into the animation which

8:28

drove a lot of the power emotional power

8:31

of shelter like as an animated music

8:33

video right

8:34

[Music]

8:38

welcome back for the second part now we

8:40

can talk about uh

8:42

anime in terms of cinematography

8:45

cinematography is like very easy to see

8:48

inanimate right uh think about what's

8:50

difference between likijo and the

8:52

amazing world of gumball

8:58

sure there's a lot of similarities but

9:00

can anyone tell me like what's the very

9:02

striking difference of the animation

9:05

anyone

9:20

yeah style is one of the things but a

9:23

lot of things we look at gumball a lot

9:25

of that is

9:26

quite flat doesn't it yeah it looks kind

9:29

of like cartoonish kind of uh

9:31

just

9:32

character slapped onto something whereas

9:34

in detail you see the characters kind of

9:36

2d and 3d mixed together in a same kind

9:39

of art style same world so that's what

9:42

makes it interesting okay yeah so that

9:44

was uh

9:46

you can see the storytelling is is quite

9:48

interesting it's not your traditional or

9:51

kind of kind of anime you would expect

9:53

that kind of linear

9:54

very one thing after another kind of

9:57

storytelling right this guy just want to

9:59

write banter honestly just want to write

10:01

that along this again afterwards

10:03

the reason that he wrote document

10:05

charges because he just wanted to

10:07

write a like novel where it's just

10:09

characters

10:11

yeah basically so it's so much like

10:13

katana

10:14

and

10:15
