Here it is! Forever Fall! Finally the tribute to Monty Oum that my friends and I have been working on for 4 months has finally been completed. The whole goal of our fan animation was to satiate the people like myself who have been craving the sensation of Monty Oum's style of RWBY. So I figured I could try to remake the Adam vs Blake and Yang fight but set it in the Foreverfall forest (thus the title of the video Forever Fall) and make the area much bigger for spectacle and scale.
I couldn't have made this without the help of people who saw the value in my vision and helped me bring it to life.

ANOTHER TUTORIAL! Sup guys, I know it's been a while since my last episode of Animation Analysis, enough time for Rooster Teeth to completely implode while I was gone. It's all good though, RT kinda ended the version of RWBY that I enjoyed in 2015. Nonetheless, here we are. I had been kinda sluggish on new episodes of Animation Analysis because I felt like I didn't have anything to teach anymore. It felt like no matter what I'd be retreading ground. Well, working on OVA 2 taught me a whole lot so now I know that I'm far from done teaching and learning. I've got some more new concepts to share later so stick around to find out! In the meanwhile, hey it's neat I got a sponsor! It's nothing crazy, I'm not rich by any means so I barely consider this selling out. Just a lil bump to keep me out of homelessness. Hope y'all don't mind too much! Well it's been real, I'll see y'all later.SIZE IMBALANCE - Animation Contest Livestream!

Heyo! Thanks for watching! This was a sort of passion project of mine, I loved Claymation as a kid and for as long as I can remember my family and I enjoy a video called "Follow that Goblin". Not many people seem to know about it but it's got really great music in it and I've wanted to cover this song for years and I finally got to do it!
I won't lie, it was very hard to do. I started on the 19th and finished last night. Modelling and rigging 4 characters, 5 instruments and 3 sets and then animating over 2 solid minutes of animation AND THEN TRY TO MAKE IT ALL LOOK LIKE CLAYMATION was a toughie to say the least.
I had a lot of other videos planned for October but my life was struck with some pretty terrible circumstances which meant that all I did was angst and panic until this was the only thing I could complete before Halloween. Nonetheless, I hope y'all enjoy the bop. Feel free to add this to your Halloween party playlists, I know it's amazing and my voice is cool, go ahead, I dare ya.
YES OVA 2 IS STILL COMING New tutorial! Anyway, howdy do all my RWBY peeps? Y'all excited about Ruby and the talking mouse from the Volume 9 premiere? Pretty sweet. I look forward to the beautiful visuals and animation and I can't wait to see what Sora and the gang do on destiny island. Oh right ice queendom was a thing too right? Honestly when I watched the trailer my brain filled in the gaps with our OVA 1 video and it messed with my mind. Yes the wonderful fan animation OVA 1 that WILL SOON HAVE A SEQUEL DON'T WORRY WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST OKAY? okay, good night c:(PART 2) LONG EXCHANGE CHALLENGE - Animation Contest Livestream!

This has been the craziest and hardest 2 weeks of my life. I couldn't have done it without the members Project ROSE and my friends who so graciously lent me their time entirely for no pay. I'm proud of each and every one of them for pushing past their limit and doing their jobs 3x as fast as they normally would have. So from us at Cake Station and Visual Outcast Studio, here's a little fan animation to perhaps whet your appetite for Volume 9. Enjoy RUBY.NON STOP ACTION Animation Contest Stream!

Yo guys this game is actually totally wack, I got it at a flea market and it was crazy dude. Scary as all get out and I did get out. I ran so far I lost 30 pounds just being afraid of this game. I actually plan on turning it into a hit workout plan, I call it "Scare-xer-cise"! Yeah the name is still a work in progress but the results are solid! I hope oddheader review this game!
Just kidding! It was all a goof! I animated the whole thing in Blender! Take that Pixar! One of these days I'll prove all 12 principles wrong and people will love me more than your big eyed characters with the same faces!Forever Fall Animation Contest Stream!

So, out of nowhere the work in progress of this animation from 3 years ago went viral (at least by my standards) so I figured it'd only take me an evening to finish this animation and besides, I had nothing else planned to upload today so here we are, there's also a reason why I was too busy to upload something today.
In other news I am actually working on something, it's big. I have a small team working with me and it's RWBY related on top of being a fight animation but guys, trust me when I say this animation will make "Yang gets Catcalled" and "Ren vs Pyrrha" look like small beans.Valentines Day Tips with Cake!Cake Station2021-02-14 | I can't celebrate this Valentines Day without fixing my last one!

This one was a real doozy! My longest 2D animated short coming in at 1 minute and 32 seconds. I had to work for 10 hours every day on it and even through a couple weekends, so even though I can't imagine this video getting many views, I hope you enjoyed it!
I made good use of Blender for making the stylized train platform environment, making it really easy to plop the camera where I needed it to get different background angles. This was also an experience in limited animation, seeing exactly how far I could push efficiency before it looked more like laziness.
And for anybody wondering, my friends finally got me watching anime, so being inspired, I dumped everything I remembered from them and put them in this video. Anybody interested in analyzing anime will immediately notice some nods and jabs at typical anime animation shortcuts and methods. But don't worry, I'm still quite picky about the anime I've watched so far (I've been shown somewhere close to 30 different anime and I've only revisited 4), so I feel inclined to stave off the title of "anime fan".

Hey guys! Hope your new year is going well so far! All I'm trying to do this year is not break my "Upload every two weeks" schedule for long enough that I can actually confidently announce "I upload every two weeks!" So we'll see if that'll happen. Or at least we'll see how long it'll be before I miss an upload. Maybe after I'm confident in my schedule I'll finally make a channel trailer.
As mentioned in the description, this is hopefully one of many tutorials in a new series I'm doing. Eventually I want to cover things like animating characters with swords, in depth choreography and camera work and stuff like that so stick around![SFM] Yang gets CatcalledCake Station2021-01-15 | Yang goes for a wistful stroll until she's so rudely interrupted.

Happy 2021 everybody! Hopefully y'all deem this a good way to start the new year. I've been studying and studying and I think I have actually improved since Ren VS Pyrrha. Still proud of that one, but there's a variety of things that I see wrong with it that I hopefully corrected in this one.
This animation was originally a test, but I spent a lot of time on it and it got out of hand and thus an upload was born. I swear the next animation won't be this weird, I'll actually start the next one with the intention of uploading it.
Also I tried to finally catch up with RWBY and I watched the first 3 episodes of Volume 7 and called it quits. It was funny and disappointing at the same time but if nothing else it inspired me to continue making RWBY Volume 1-3 style stuff.Star Wars Episode 1 Pod Race: N64 vs OriginalCake Station2020-10-30 | Comparing the original Pod Race with my "De-mastered" version.

For the viewers with technical interests, I hand replicated each model myself but all of the textures were ripped from the actual game using an N64 emulator. But I feel like since was still responsible for the models and animations I feel entitled to most of the credit. But just in case, Credit to the developers of "Star Wars Episode 1: Racer" for their incredible texture work.Its Summer in TexasCake Station2020-08-14 | Witness the harrowing journey of a Texas native on his dangerous quest to retrieve the recycling bin from the street.

I've been studying Monty and his fight animations for almost 6 years now. I feel like this is the closest I've gotten to replicating his style. Obviously I'll continue to improve and look back at this like it's amateur stuff but for now, I'm proud of it.Why Hollywood War Films SuckCake Station2020-06-28 | After watching Fury, Midway and Hacksaw ridge, I noticed a trend.

Hokey is on the move once again, I've found temporary solace in a place which location I cannot divulge for fear of being tracked again. Stay low my friends and don't put in any outgoing transmissions. Think about fortnite, remember that game? 40 years now since it shut down and just 35 since I last saw a computer. These are the dark times, press forward.
