It's no secret that the current mainstream animation industry is very homogenized and has a disapproval of artists criticizing it's practices, so for a while if you wanted to work in it you couldn't *notice* that the new-Calarts artstyle is a problem, and you sure as hell weren't allowed to make fun of it

Recently a shift occurred where it suddenly became acceptable to do so because audiences en masse started noticing it's existence as well, and there was no point in hiding it, so many artists and cartoon creators now became empowered to boldly and bravely mock the "style"
But only a highly specific and curated hyperbolic depiction of the style in the form of a shiny, rounded character with a big cheek and a bean mouth
This is a form of approved and acceptable opposition to show the world that "See? The artists in the industry *aren't* repressed, they are allowed to point this out." without actually risking stirring the pot

But you'll still not see artists criticizing the style as a whole and the issues with it, not for a looooong long time, because they're still not actually permitted to do so, they can only repeat memes that have now become safe for them to repeat.

I don't feel like standing up and clapping for them having finally said, so bravely and controversially, what we were all seeing years ago
Even more so for saying a safe version of it

Pardon the autistic statement but- these "Haha look guys industry guy making fun of Calarts!" memes are, in a way, the "Calarts style" of industry criticism - soft, inoffensive, culturally approved and mass produced for what they think the audience wants, and without edge or intent.

            Thing is, things got REALLY fricking bad fast, so the meme became real.

            The meme may not have been MADE by Calartists and shills but it was definitely loved and spread by them as a kind of controlled opposition

            No. Let me guess you're gonna use that image of Chibi Maruko Chan going off model to disprove me right? And I don't hate beanmouth I hate how it's being used, it's fine when it's a few designs, but using it for every fricking design sucks ass.

            Frick off Birchy

            This image is 100% correct but I hate how "calarts style" has become known as just bean mouth shit when what John K originally coined the term for was industry cliches that are blindly followed. Reducing it down to just beanmouth (which is only one of many industry cliches present) has made it very easy to deflect and criticism of modern cartoons should just stop using it.

            To be fair the term John K coined refered to the Calarts of his time, that doesn't make this term incorrect, just confusing
            It's like if I called the pic on the left a 'British house' and you said 'what? but 100+ years ago it referred to the pic on the right!' yes it refers to both in different eras and contexts and somehow we still recognize the context we are speaking about at the time
            But to be fair that's why some people now say 'new calarts'

            Then what are we supposed to call it then?

              "new calarts" is a great compromise and im defo gonna start using it

      By portraying the Calarts style as NOTHING MORE THAN "big cheek and a bean mouth" they effectively create a strawman that they can easily push down with two stock arguments
      1. Look at this obviously Calarts show, it doesn't do the big cheek and bean grin so it's obviously not Calarts' and also
      2. 'Look at this clearly non Calarts cartoon by like, idk, Ghibli or something, it DOES have a big cheek and a bean grin so i gueeeess it's Calarts too riiiiight?'
      Everyone with eyes and healthy pattern recognition can notice what the style is
      Look at pic rel and tell me it doesn't exude the Calarts accusations despite having NONE of the memetic properties that we're supposed to notice
      NO bright neon colors, NO big side cheek, NO beany toothy grin
      So how come we can still tell it belongs in that category? Because it has many, many aspects of the style that nobody in the industry is willing to mention lest it be revealed that "the style" isn't just one or two traits, but rather a whole design philosophy and sets of observable patterns all coming together to create what we now know as the "Calarts style"

                It's the colors man, Ren and Stimpy used digital for the later seasons and you wouldn't even tell that it was digital because they used warn colors. It's how you use the software. Also making everything bright and basic is easier and cheaper for overseas studios.

          No you're not. Most anime up until the SAO era was angular rather than beany and in fact zoomhomosexuals hate the older stuff for being so angular instead of safe shapes. Even in japanese game artwofk series I've seen frickers say stuff like they prefer classic Mega Man for being "a precious bean" over X rather than its quality merits. Beanmouth in older anime was limited to one or two kodomo anime aimed at very young children and even now it's more likely you see it in that demographic outside of SAO and it's clones.

          >inb4 "but moe"
          Compare Di Gi Charat to SU. Even if Dejiko is 3 heads tall like Steven she's a hell of a lot more angular in her fmhead and eye shape and even her dress has sharp corners as opposed to Steven where everything is soft and sanded off.

        The issue with Rory is that they don't know how to learn, they were always a trust fund baby who got into art because it was an easy thing for people like them to do at the time and felt cool and glamorous but you can tell they only learned from a small collection of people and their work became incestuous

        So which cartoonists do you think would actually criticize Calarts as a trend if given the chance, and which are just jumping on the meme of drawing le funnee bean face now that it's allowed?

        Despite how lame I think it is that they only did it after it became acceptable I think it's safe to say at least some of the people working on the Patrick Star show actually dislike the style and know why they dislike it
        Mao Mao too, we know he was a classic oldschool internet artist back inna day
        Most of the others feel performative, to be perfectly tbh with you

        I didn't know many cartoonists by name but I can't help but think that Peter Whatever, the guy behind Æon Flux, would be happy with it. I never liked his artwork, but at the very least it was unmistakeably his. My sole issue with the current trend is that I can't immediately recognise who is responsible for what anymore. From Rugrats to Stressed Eric to Rocket Power to those McDonald's cartoons, Klasky Csupo was immediately recognisable. Same with Butch Hartman's stuff, Seth MacFarlane's (sp?), Simpsons guy's and others. Now, everyone looks the same. So much for diversity and inclusion.

          I absolutely agree! A good artstyle is a beautiful thing and we're treating it like it's something that can just be packaged and sold as dehydrated soup, a samey stock thing that you can just throw onto any cartoon when creativity is not an option, and the individual artist's intent is lost ... If it was ever even there to begin with, because if they didn't create their visual piece of media around, well, the visuals, then what else did they put little to no effort into?

            Yes, exactly, though I admittedly screwed up when I said "I can't help but think that Peter Whatever, the guy behind Æon Flux, would be happy with it." I meant "wouldn't," of course.
            The one saving grace is that a lot of these lookalike characters exist in fairly well done worlds. The backgrounds in many of them are beautiful and often quite unique to their own programmes

              That’s true about the backgrounds and it really makes me think it isn’t the artists at fault for these designs. So does every other pilot for a show having a unique look, and then getting sandpapered into the same old shit once it gets picked up.

              The artists submit to the system but it seems obvious to me that behind the lip service most of them really are desperate to break out of the calarts style and do something more unique. There’s some analysts determining broadest visual appeal and then mandating everyone follow that, the fault goes higher than the people actually sitting in front of computers and animating/drawing.

              • 4 weeks ago

                It depends on the execs/producers. If you get someone who hates cartoons and only uses it as a crutch to get into live action then the show is shit.

          Now back to the topic at hand.
          Beanmouth would not get as much hate if they put more variety in the animation and art. There is this cartoon from Russia that is about a dragon, a knight, and a princess that I can't for the life of me remember the name of. It has beanmouth designs, but it's done in a way that it's appealing.

    I hate the "oooh but this other thing does beanmouths too so is THAT Calarts?" argument, we know the internet art scene has already destroyed people's perception of what an "Art style" is because they think it just refers to how faces are drawn and nothing else, when in reality a style takes into account everything visual from character designs to movement to character animation to colors and line width and variance in facial designs.

    Like, if you honest to god look at pic rel and tell me "It's no different than Calarts because the mouth is a bean, therefor your argument is moot" I seriously think you're either a lying shill, or have worms on the brain.

    Unrelated but why is DuckDuckGo image search sucking lately? Anyone else?

      >I hate the "oooh but this other thing does beanmouths too so is THAT Calarts?" argument
      Same, like I said it's fine when it's just a handful of designs. And by that logic any cartoon/anime that has used rounded mouths are considered "beanmouth" to these morons.

      Good point, it's definitely at least in part a result of not seeing anything outside the screen and having their brains and eyes fried.

      Now frick off Birchy

      It's the colors man, Ren and Stimpy used digital for the later seasons and you wouldn't even tell that it was digital because they used warn colors. It's how you use the software. Also making everything bright and basic is easier and cheaper for overseas studios.

            Character is debatable because I like some character designs and what not in s2 & s3 however to said Gumball s1 had better animation is an understatement Gumball's animation was evolving in a good way from s2 to s6 some scenes at those seasons felt cinematic meanwhile s1's animation and arstyle looks dull and cheap

                They could bring her back in the upcoming series/s7 and will hear news about it next month not sure about the movie but I think the only logics way they could bring Racheal back is the lore of the show the Void like how Rob and Molly were stuck in the Void due to them being forgotten idk she could be the new antagonist of the show since Rob became an anti hero in the "end" of the show

                >that being said i think beanmouth isnt that bad as people say

                Ehhh I see where your coming from. Like I've said it depends on the artist. Some beanmouth can look good like Gravity Falls and Star Vs. And some can look shitty like Craig of the Creek. Depends on who's in charge of the animation and art.

                She wasn't voided. During S5, both Darwin and Teri remember her, both in name and appearance. When Molly and Rob were voided, they disappeared from everyone's memory.

    i think you're discovering "recuperation", which is how capitalism will eventually disarm and appropriate every criticism of itself into something that no longer threatens it. that's why everyone thinks every entertainment industry is full of leftists, when the people at the top are the same breed of bastard that run hedge funds and shit.

      The industry is dying regardless, indie is where it's at.

      Isn't this the guy that got his dick posted on here the other week?
      What a loon

      Anyway, as for thread topic

      I don't know how this happened but at some point every person in the art industry, as well as most of the population in general, started hearing words of encouragement all the time, generalized statements about how smart and wise and important and valid and correct they are, under the assumption that most people undervalue themselves
      But in reality that's not true and it resulted in a lot of conceited people hearing what they wanted to hear

      i actually find it concerning how long this has lasted
      usually this guys manic episodes go on for a little bit a few days at most and he fricks off but this time around hes been here for like a month idk what happened in his life but im insanely curious to know

      my best guess is he got some kinda psychiatric care
      he might be on meds that are supposed to balance his moods but just end up making him all manic all the time, and he probably also saw a psychotherapist who taught him all this psychobabble and techniques of tricking people that hes trying to use on others now

      but unfortunately he cant fathom why others can tell what hes doing, because a lower iq individual physically cannot get into the mind of a more intelligent person, just like how a lizard wouldnt be able to understand a person even if they both spoke english

        Yeah he's always just fifteen steps behind the rest of the world
        I remember when he tried retiring the Birchy persona and then pretended for a while like it never existed until someone explained to him what the tbharchive is and how we have proof of it, then as soon as he figured out that there's an archive of his posts he instantly stopped pretending that he was never here and began using it against others be scouring for old reaction images with the same name and implying it's them
        For a while he even thought it was a separate Chan, and not an archive, so he talked about how people are supposedly talking about him "On the tbharchive"

      It's cause he got rejected by a Swiss female artist online and had such a nuclear end of the world meltdown about it that he dedicated his whole internet life to fuming about her forever
      Whenever he talks about "her" or "The Swiss girl" or "Spencergay", which is a name he gave her and only exclusively he ever uses because that woman doesn't even go on Cinemaphile she's like a DeviantArt/Twitter girly or something, it's him going nuts over her existence and the fact that she didn't gag on his penis.

      Is there Swiss beanmouth? I mean it'd fit, they don't have standards to begin with.

      shit your right I guess this was really the canon explanation of why she's gone

      the guy firmly believes everyone that has ever appeared in his personal lore is in every single thread he's in so he does this passive aggressive teen girl esque 'vagueposting' about them
      the swiss thing is in relation to the girl who didn't wanna let him smash

      i recall one time i posted in a thread with him in it telling him off and he referred to me by some... guy's name or something? i don't recall what name but he kept doing it so he must've thought i was some dude he knew coming in hot to harass him
      i can't tell if he genuinely believes the only people who would ever dislike him are people who have appeared in his sonichu ass life story, or if it's all a performance he puts on for other people to convince them that thats the case, but either way it's like a true greek tragedy

    Many old industry folk, and a few newcomers who came into the industry but had big dreams of true and honest oldschool professional work, spoke about being disappointed in how it handles criticizm

      That's always a sad thing in art circles, and really critism should be encouraged because that improves both the critquer and the crtiquee.

      So, everyone got banned for their off-topic shit? Good

      Hopefully lol, but as a namegay from the /bcb/ threads, I gotta say that Brichy (who really I only learned about in this thread) seem to have won even with being a dummy and sharing a picture of his penis. Hating the swiss is meh (the french/german food thing gave a slight chuckle)

      https://i.imgur.com/706BfjL.png

      It's no secret that the current mainstream animation industry is very homogenized and has a disapproval of artists criticizing it's practices, so for a while if you wanted to work in it you couldn't *notice* that the new-Calarts artstyle is a problem, and you sure as hell weren't allowed to make fun of it

      Recently a shift occurred where it suddenly became acceptable to do so because audiences en masse started noticing it's existence as well, and there was no point in hiding it, so many artists and cartoon creators now became empowered to boldly and bravely mock the "style"
      But only a highly specific and curated hyperbolic depiction of the style in the form of a shiny, rounded character with a big cheek and a bean mouth
      This is a form of approved and acceptable opposition to show the world that "See? The artists in the industry *aren't* repressed, they are allowed to point this out." without actually risking stirring the pot

      But you'll still not see artists criticizing the style as a whole and the issues with it, not for a looooong long time, because they're still not actually permitted to do so, they can only repeat memes that have now become safe for them to repeat.

      I don't feel like standing up and clapping for them having finally said, so bravely and controversially, what we were all seeing years ago
      Even more so for saying a safe version of it

      Pardon the autistic statement but- these "Haha look guys industry guy making fun of Calarts!" memes are, in a way, the "Calarts style" of industry criticism - soft, inoffensive, culturally approved and mass produced for what they think the audience wants, and without edge or intent.

      But finally back on topic, I think distilling it down to "bean mouth" forgoes the animation aspect of it. How much squash and stretch are in a new cal-arts cartoon? How many angles of characters not in the 3/4th angle? Also just the general loss of slapstick comedy is really sad.

        >I think distilling it down to "bean mouth" forgoes the animation aspect of it
        Earlier in the thread there’s a whole discussion about this, see

        By portraying the Calarts style as NOTHING MORE THAN "big cheek and a bean mouth" they effectively create a strawman that they can easily push down with two stock arguments
        1. Look at this obviously Calarts show, it doesn't do the big cheek and bean grin so it's obviously not Calarts' and also
        2. 'Look at this clearly non Calarts cartoon by like, idk, Ghibli or something, it DOES have a big cheek and a bean grin so i gueeeess it's Calarts too riiiiight?'
        Everyone with eyes and healthy pattern recognition can notice what the style is
        Look at pic rel and tell me it doesn't exude the Calarts accusations despite having NONE of the memetic properties that we're supposed to notice
        NO bright neon colors, NO big side cheek, NO beany toothy grin
        So how come we can still tell it belongs in that category? Because it has many, many aspects of the style that nobody in the industry is willing to mention lest it be revealed that "the style" isn't just one or two traits, but rather a whole design philosophy and sets of observable patterns all coming together to create what we now know as the "Calarts style"

        Then later in the thread we get a bunch of thoughtless posts all at once just recently saying there is no problem it doesn’t exist you’re silly for thinking so bean mouth bean mouth bean mouth, just proving that other anon right

    Literally what I’ve fricking always said. Anime has more variety, better stories, better animation, better everything right now than animation. Animation is either beanmouth shows for baby introverts or liberal propaganda shows like Velma, either only infants or leftist hays code

    It’s all hollow because we know the studios here will always go for the cheapest and safest option. If it isn’t Calarts, it will be something like outsourcing it for less money or AIslop.

    Tartakovsky studied at CalArts and nobody will ever fault his style; the problem is that nothing else emerged in the wake of the recession. There should have been new legitimate animation and art schools teaching with a basis in life drawing and technical skill on a budget and timeline considering we learned that everything up to the 2000s was moronic at that point.

    ITT children that have never drawn so much as a smiley face argue about a "style" that literally never existed as anything but John K being mad at Disney and a couple morons being mad at cheap Rough Draft Korea shows for existing.

    The moment you call something "calarts" you are broadcasting that you know literally nothing about illustration or animation.

    Not all calarts art styles are like this at all. Most might be though.

    Threads that are whining about generalizations instead of focusing on specific examples are so tiresome.
    You are talking about nothing and jerking yourselves off over nothing. There is nothing of substance to be had in these discussions. They can barely even be called discussions.
    Also the people who post this shit tend to be the same people who worship trash like Family Guy which was notoriously cheap looking and lead to a lot of cheap looking copycats, long before Adventure Time was ever a thing.

    they dont want to create shows that require drawing skills to produce. That's it.

    They would have to pay artists well if they were the only ones who could create the show. The way it is now, its one step removed from an ai generated show. The 'artists" just drag and drop features and tween them.
