What exactly was the point of killing off Olaf if he got revived 10 minutes later, near the end of the second Frozen movie?
Did he even have a character arc?
Do you think it was handled well, at least?

To make Anna sad.

To teach the little ones a lesson.

It would have had more impact if he have stayed dead, yes, but in the end the whole point was to make Anna sing "The next right thing".
He kind of had a character arc, but I think it was abandoned right after the canoe scene.
Overall, no, I don't like how they handled Olaf in the movie.

What was the lesson?
You have no control over when and where you'll die?

>He kind of had a character arc, but I think it was abandoned right after the canoe scene.
yeah, his whole thing was not understanding the world and the way everything changed around him, and then he had that thing when he got mad at Elsa, but then none of that was resolved in the end

They needed to give him something to do.
And dying was all they could think of.

Animated movies like to pull that and the dance party ending.

This
That was his ultimate goal in the movie

When said he was mad I thought it could lead to something interesting but nope, cut to Show yourself and then he's dead.

Reminder that Anna doesn't even get to finish mourning Olaf before Gale, the wind spirit, vacuums his remains out of the cave, leaving Anna sobbing there all alone in the dark.
Fuck the spirits.

I would imagine that had been the case if the supposed plan to kill-off Elsa for the rest of movie turned out to be true.

How can he stay angry at the goddess responsible for giving him life not once, but twice?

I'm taking computer graphics for the summer and these terms are more relevant than what I'd have liked.

>Olaf comes back to life on the beach
>Immediately turns around and attacks Elsa in a furious rage

Yes, fuck them!

what about entertaining elsa

I wish you luck, user. That is a beautiful field.

If your mommy is magic, you can die without repercussions since she will just fix you later.

>Did he even have a character arc?
Well, more than Kristoff.

If Jenn Lee wasn't the writer, there would have been moments that built up to Olaf dying earlier in the film.

>olaf gets to tag along for most of the adventure until he dies
>his death causes so much impact on Anna that it almost completely destroys her, making her find the inner strength to sing one of the most powerful songs in the movie and fulfill the task of finally freeing the forest

>kristoff drives the sleigh
>fucks about with some reindeer and fails to propose 3 times

No, it's just the opposite.
If your mommy is magic, your life is tied to hers, so if she dies, YOU die. A lot of kids are going to have separation anxiety, thinking they could dissolve into snow at any moment.

I'd like some chest squash drivers, if you know what I mean

Thanks

Why so much technical stuff is being posted by individual animators lately? Were they bound by contract until the documentary aired or something?

Anna could be breastfeeding Olaf.

Most likely.

Is chest squash a technical term?

Might as well post the webm, since it's related to the OP pic.

>you will never push Elsa's diaphragm button

huh , so it was a driver in the end and not a mesh pushing another by force? interesting

>Anna realizes she left the oven on at her apartment

stop

is computer graphics a good field?

To be fair, the original Instagram post did make it sound like there was more going on than it actually was, specially if you searched for Frank Hanner, the guy who made the rig, because he was a simulation lead on some other movies.

Yeah, I'm realizing that my linear algebra grades don't correlate to my understanding of it since we've started transformation. I'm having a hard time understanding how the rotation works, mathematically. I don't think that I've seen it before, and we are still just using transformation matrix atm, not quaternion.

depends on where you live, I guess
it's a growing field in my country so there's plenty of opportunities

no, but it's a concise way to describe it once you get to physics based rendering I'd imagine, I'm nowhere near there tho

I've heard it's hard to break into. I'm thinking that I'd prefer taking it up the rear now than later.

It makes me feel dumb because all I do is scribble pretty pictures on paper and I’ve never been good at math, and it seems like a lot of that is required.
