Shinya Ohira - Master Animator | Sakuga Studies
You guys asked me for a sakuga breakdown so here it is! In this study I break down one of the best animators of the anime industry.
Shout out to RC Anime, The Canipa Effect, and Onion Skin for being great sources of inspiration!

About what Sakuga is:
It's the Japanese word for animation, but it has more meaning than that. Ever watched an anime where the production quality is ramped up for a specific scene? Often an action scene or a pivotal moment in the story? That is a sakuga animation method where an experienced or highly skilled animator will be given lots of time and creative control over the scene.
Sakuga originated as more of a production strategy than anything else. It can be quite an efficient way of producing TV animation because fans will sit through more limited animation to enjoy the Sakuga scenes.
It was a term used only in Japanese Animation but now it is becoming more of an international term for animation which takes a lot of skill to pull off
I tried to keep track of all of the sources for you guys. If there's any you really want to find but they aren't listed here, just send me a message!
