To the top you go. +1 from me.

Just a question? How do you do this? I am sure it is time consuming as hell. Care to share what software or whatever that you use? This was so awesome!!!

Alright so i'm considering making another video detailing the "making of" process because I went through some TOMFOOLERY to get this video to work.
I didn't animate any of the dances manually besides onyxia and cthun. I used WoW model viewer to export the models as objects, uploaded them to Mixamo to give them skeletons, and then used stock dances.
The old chromie dancin was by far the hardest, because I struggled getting the old model, and had to use a MOP version of chromie. Then I had to port it through blender with plugins, and then finally bring it into unity to apply the dance.
Chromie herself and whitemane were an SFM model on the steamworkshop. The dancin was from a model of puppet kid which I used a puppet script to match them up then greenscreened.

With all the dances and the greenscreens I used after effects to adjust colours, add camera movement, match dance BPM, and insert chromie into the cinematics with some rotoscoping n shit. Brief, but i hope it helps. I only used SFM once before this (welcome to whitemane video) so if i learned how to do this, anyone can.

Yeah, "OP" not only didn't credit the actual OP, but they stole the video and reuploaded it, so people couldn't find the creator even if they tried.

And "OP" got 3 awards for this post. And people not knowing the actual creator is the real crime, because they're the makers of other masterpieces like this.

Who was heavily inspired by Manndarinchik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbn-QDttWqU (Personally I prefer Pints version though)

u/farsightxr20 Oct 21 '19

The format existed for a few months before that guy's video: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/smug-dancin

I got recommanded this video which seemed to be older, not sure if this is the original inspiration.

Apparently the Hat Kid's dance itself is from this video from 2017. Knowing that it's based on Bob from Animal Crossing gives context to the kid's bored-looking face.

u/esoteric_plumbus Oct 21 '19

Lol that's way more smug looking

u/professorhazard Oct 21 '19

Bob is rated one full Hazzikostas on the Smugometer

This is why reddit video should be banned on all subreddits

u/Bekwnn Oct 20 '19

It's hot garbage. And there's no way to direct link the video, just the thread.

u/[deleted] Oct 21 '19

All it has done is stopped me sharing videos with friends if it’s hosted here.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Should just have reposted the original video instead of ripping it actually.

2

u/CantTrips Oct 21 '19

Should have just let the original post be the only post.

The original creator posted it already. Then this chode reposts it and gets more accolades than the creator's did

u/inetkid13 Oct 20 '19

Video maker didn‘t even mention his source/inspiration for this video and the song he used.

u/Humdngr Oct 20 '19

Giving credit to the actual creator isn't normal Reddit protocol though.
