WOOO ITS DONE!!! im so happy with how most of this came out. obv the audio/characters belong to rusty quill, only the art is mine!!!! the laverne design belongs to eben taylor :3 also MEGA SPOILERS FOR S5 !!!!
Something I just want to point out: They didn't save anyone. The tunnels became a domain in and of itself filled with people clinging to a dim hope TERRIFIED of being dragged back to hell It's like what happened to Basira. You don't get to escape being scared even if you have power
Come to think about it this makes a lot of sense!! they said in the eyepocalypse you are either a watcher or watched, so everyone who isn't being fed on has their own domain; Georgie and Melanie's domain is the tunnels and their "cult members" are their watched!!!
@Catswit And Jon and Martin passing through is The Eye coming to collect the built-up fear That's also probably why the watchers came to force the cult back into their domains after: they served their purpose and The Eye wasn't planning on Jon making a return trip to See them again
Jon is a near omniscient demigod that's near indestructible and can rain existential dread and annihilation down on almost anyone's head. Martin's basically taken a guided scenic tour of the apocalypse beside his untouchable boyfriend.
I can just hear him screaming "WHERE THE HELL AM I NOW?? WHERE DID SHE DROP ME? HOW DID I GET HERE???? Helen........ if you weren't already dead I'd kill you again." Just lying on the ground vaguely waving his fist in the air talking to no one in particular. Very perfect moment.
If you remember back during season 3 Martin managed to get her out of her rage after the incident with the arson. She was more than willing to go full destroyer after seeing him hurt and he basically only had to say "not yet"
I mean yeah, but in the end she just went blind. Honestly, the consequences seem kind of tame o me. Then again, I'm going blind irl, wo maybe my priorities are different.
Okay Martin's "Plus one" joke is the best possible thing he could have said. 1) It lightens the mood, making jokes with people you don't know very well ingratiate yourself to them and puts them at ease. He wants and needs Melanie to like him, both as a person and as a Prophet. 2) It puts himself down. Martin consistently sees himself through his relationship to others. Initially it was his mother, then his coworkers, and for a while but especially now, Jon. He does not see himself as an entire person in his own right, just what he is to Jon, whom he deems far more important. 3) He doesn't say the whole truth. His "role" in this world is as the keeper of a fear domain, begrudgingly serving the Eye. Even if Melanie and Georgie wanted to, they wouldn't be able to save them because Martin's domain forbids the knowledge of them, they MUST suffer alone. If he had told the truth, Melanie would become hostile to him, and then to Jon for the possibility of him having a domain as well.
Bless you you wonderful person, this animatic cleared my skin, mowed my lawn, buttered my toast, and watered my begonias. May the eye spare you after Jonny finally brings about the apocalypse in mag 200. I hear noble level patrons get their own domains
These two could've had the perfect friendship, even back in s3 where she got mad at jonah hurting Martin. I mean I get it was also cause of her own anger but- still. Potential.
YESSSS YOU DID IT AGAIN!!! This moment was so good, your animatic really pulled out all the stops with the emotion in their conversation! The emotion behind the animation where Melanie blinded herself was VERY GOOD. Their banter was so sweet, and talking about their relationships together really brought out how sweetly they care for each other. The moments where Martin catches her up on Daisy and Basira were really dramatic, and I love how Melanie warned Martin about Helen before he even brought it up, your art really emphasised how much Helen's betrayal hurt her. This is amazing!! You are incredible!!!!! Also 3:01 I see you using my Laverne design!! :^D
this is incredible, I can´t believe you did an 8 minute animatic and nail everything so perfectly: their expressions are SO GOOD. I just couldn´t help but laugh so hard at Jon smitting Helen all floaty and then just falling flat on his back AJSJDFGH
GOD I love the little details you put into the animation!! Like the little hand waves Martin does and the little changes in everyone's faces as they react to stuff???? Top shit, love it!!!!
i loved this scene already and actually seeing the emotions and actions behind it gave me the Biggest boost of serotonin... i love how you included bits from their journey too, especially the hard cut with daisy and basira at 7:03. i knew it was coming but it still hit hard. :( but anyway this was delightful! i loved your melanie design especially, she makes me so happy
I gotta tell you, it's really fun being called Georgie when you're listening to this. Wayyyy better than watching It. The art is amazing by the way!! First of yours I've seen and I love it!
I totally thought some of the "believers" were gonna go full fanatic and want to have Jon and Martin burned at the stake when Georgie and Melanie were gone or something
If I wrote down everything that I loved about this animatic I'd Actually Die so suffice it to say that it's perfect and I love it and every second of it was Good thank you.
This is so so fucking good. To watch an animatic this long is a blessing and to make it must have been so much goddamn work, its commendable. You melanie and martin are on point, honestly your melanie is not how i pictured her but im in love with your version, shes extremely lovely and perfect. your martin is also lovely and perfect. And just all the expression and visuals and details, theres so much i cant list it all but this is one of my fav tma animatics of one of my fav episodes
It's here!! I couldn't watch it immeadiately but I have a quiet moments and it's great :D. I like that the animatic reflects how quiet but fairly comfortable this scene was.
I love this, and I love you so very much for making this. I love melanie so much and seeing her in animatics always makes me happy! You do so well on just idle conversation animation, and you blend it well with transition to flashback scenes as they speak in past-tense! 10/10 im sending this to all my tma friends
this is delghtful!!! i really really really like this!!!! you worked so hard on this and it showes!!!!! its 8 minutes long qwell done!!!!! also the expressions???? incredible!!! also all of the little scenes!!!!!1 they came out so good!!! the epition is creal and good and shown really well here!!! this is incredible
Yesss!!!!!! This is like my favorite clip this season and you animated it so well! The expressions of the faces and body language are all just so good!
