Description: Smear frames are body horror snuck into seemingly normal video game animations. There was a time when smears were vital in games, but they don’t happen much any more, and there’s a very good reason for their disappearance. With help from the animators of Overwatch and Cuphead, Jenna Stoeber is going to teach you how these weird smears make animation better, and why we don't see them as often as we used to. 0:00 Watch out for SMEAR FRAMES 0:31 Where do smear frames come from? 1:57 How do smear frames work? 7:01 Smears in 3D animation Subscribe to our YouTube channel! goo.gl/D8prdf Like us on Facebook: bit.ly/PolygonFB Follow us on Twitter: bit.ly/PolygonTwitter Follow us on Instagram: bit.ly/PolygonInsta And for more gaming and entertainment coverage, visit polygon.com
