Watch Mr. Snake Get "Split in Half" in This Behind-the-Scenes Demo from The Bad Guys 2
The topic of cheating in 3D animation will likely always be one of the most fascinating parts of the craft. The notion that, unlike in games, for example, 3D animations can be bent and twisted in all sorts of ways behind the scenes, coupled with the fact that these mesmerizing imperfections usually remain unseen, makes it all the more exciting when distorted models and messed-up rigs do come to light.Joining our growing library of such showcases is this impressive under-the-hood demo featuring Mr. Snake from The Bad Guys 2 being "split in half," figuratively speaking, shared by DreamWorks Animator David Guo. To make the character slither convincingly on screen, the creator simply used two rigs and skillfully hid the connection out of sight, giving the illusion of a single unified model. "The key to making him feel like a single, solid character was to make sure the overall 'volume' of his body felt consistent: when one part of the body enters, it pulls on another area of the body," the author notes.Earlier, Guo also compared this particular scene from the movie to how it looked during the blocking stage, for a more extensive behind-the-scenes look at some of DreamWorks' films, we highly encourage you to visit the artist's Instagram page:And here are some more mesmerizing instances of cheating in 3D animation for your viewing pleasure:Here's How You Can Cut Corners & Cheat in 3D AnimationBreaking 3D Models to Achieve the Perfect Animation ShotDisney Animator Shows That It's OK to Break Things to Get a Good ResultPixar Animator Shows How 3D Character Mouths Look From Different AnglesArtists Share Broken 3D Models That Look Good on CameraIf you would like to learn more about how 3D Animators cut corners, we also recommend checking out our interview with Kevin Temmer, the Lead Animator at Glitch Production, who told us more about The Amazing Digital Circus' animation workflows, explained what "cheating" in 3D animation is, and discussed how they twist TADC's characters behind the scenes.Don't forget to join our 80 Level Talent platform and our new Discord server, follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Telegram, TikTok, and Threads, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
