Off-Model: Difference between revisions

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwpkbYYv12o An M&Ms commercial from Madagascar] (the country, not the movie) has horrible-looking models of the M&Ms mascots; they're completely hollow on the inside with no tongues and they appear lumpy whenever they move their limbs.

** An Italian ad gave Yellow a set of teeth.

* A lot of well-animated anime (or individual high-budget episodes of otherwise cheap shows) tends to feature looser artwork than usual, as a way to show off the style of each individual animator and give the scene more of a "soul", so to speak. These inconsistencies as a result of animation directors treating individual animators as artists as opposed to mere cogs in a machine is often seen as "low quality" or a "lack of budget" by anime fans, who tend to value detail-per-frame and consistency above all else. A lot of "notoriously bad" episodes are actually the impressive work of an above-average good staff.

* ''[[Spirited Away]]'' features this intentionally, as the proportions of Yubaba's head continually change depending on the mood of the scene. Miyazaki has said being able to go intentionally off-model is one of the things that appeals to him about traditional animation over CGI.

* The anime of ''[[Ginga Densetsu Weed]]'' is practically ''legendary'' for this among the fandom. [https://web.archive.org/web/20120730160131/http://www.gingasite.net/ginga_board/index.php?showtopic=27 Here] is forum topic centered around posting these so-called "bombs". It should say something that the thing is ''over a hundred pages long''.

* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48T5fZJpXmk car chase scene] in episode 7 of ''[[Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica]]'' (which spawned its own meme, being dubbed the "QUALITY VAN") is one of the most infamous bits of Off Model in anime. Note the inflatable pool toy on the roof of the car that can't decide whether it wants to be a shark, a dolphin, or a different shark. Window's broken, now it's fixed, now it's broken again...now there's ''two''?!

* In the ''[[Berserk]]'' anime during the infamous scene in the Eclipse where Femto appears before Guts and {{spoiler|rapes Casca}} you see Guts pupils briefly being out of sync with one another.

** Also, when a bunch of demons approach Casca after {{spoiler|Judeau dies}} we see her pupils also go out of sync.
