Watching the creator of Faith menacingly hold a crayon like he is gonna stab me with it is so funny to me.

[cthulhuwua]

I love that he did his own references but I'm living for the awkward walk back to the camera that he left in

[TheActualMrLink]

1:23 I love how casually he snaps from “being actively possessed by demons” to “okay, moving on.”

[bronzite_]

i love how he finishes the motion and then falls back to default idle

me leaving my room for a snack when satan forcibly takes control of my body

[spiritofchaos]

I love the transition between "just some dude" to "POSESSED CONTORTIONS OF THE BODY" then back to calm dude. It just makes it really funny, thanks

[evydori]

I love how much effort he put into the acting and even costuming lmao. It might have looked a bit goofy by itself, but it sure paid off well for the game!

Ain't no way we met high quality John

I love how goofy it looks on its own but with context it's very VERY creepy

[atlix]

love the transition from possessed horrifying movement to just walking back over to the camera like a normal person

[honeyypool]

one of my favorite rotoscopes in the entire game would probably be the possessed convulsing father john and father john looking behind him to see the demon. watching the rotoscopes next to the OG clips feels so satisfying

1:43 Me adjusting me hair and collar before getting shot by cops

[hermeschase]

Damn, the gunshot part looks amazing!
He really acted pretty nice there, i love how you can clearly see his arms go limp after the first shot in the head, when you're acting these types of scenes you need to keep a track on everything your body is doing to make it look natural and believable, Airdorf did a great job!

[andrasfogarasi]

1:31 It's impressive how Airdorf actually stabbed his eye with a key here.

[Jimgress]

Really impressive. This game did a fantastic job of minimalist horror and the unnerving fluidity of rotoscoping for these cut scenes stood out tremendously against the rigid Atari-esque sprites. I seriously appreciate the work that went into showcasing such creativity!

[volcanicviper]

even if youre not rotoscoping, acting something out and using it as a reference is good practice for any animator

[altega]

i always admire people who can do their own references for animations. ill be home alone and get too embarrassed to do it 😭

[Halucygeno]

Rotoscoping is bloody fire. It really gives animation these subtle motions and realistic sense of weight, it's so good.

[abraruralam]

What makes Faith so good, is that it feels like it belongs to the 1990s...and yet you know if it did, it would be as popular as the retro classics. It feels like a masterpiece that just didn't happen in the correct point of time.
