Bro finally left the coalmine. This is just a small animatic I made, I thought this would only take a week ,it took 3. some parts are more rushed than others so sorry about any inconsistencies or issues. I hope you like it :}}
i actually think it adds something, like the distant static of something being messed up/a broken tv? makes it feel like the watchers aren't happy with what's happened.
The way Joel looked after Lizzie died, is so sad. He’s just crying and then Jimmy comes over singing and dancing and being happy and then he dies not even 10 minutes later 😭😂
seeing joel go to lizzie's house and seeing it empty felt like a stab to the chest, and then jimmy's last words before the lightning strike? ouch. this is so amazing! i also don't think the canary curse is broken, because the definition of it is that it's a warning of the danger and once jimmy died, mumbo went right after and everything went wrong. lizzie didn't break the curse, she was outside of the world when it happened. and poor jimmy never got to have his party :'( keep up the amazing work!!
And the other part of the curse is that whoever he is teamed up with has an early demise as well. The first season scott died close to last when he got 1st 2nd and 3rd after, second season mumbo died right after timmy, 3rd obviously tango died right after tim, season 4 jole died second, and now Martin was frist red with tim when he has been top 5 almost every time.
and if you think about it, all of the canary deaths have been in the overworld, and the first one out in the overworld was still jimmy. actually, I think this was the first final death that's happened in the end.
I have a theory that jimmy didn’t actually break the canary curse. HEAR ME OUT. In Martin’s lore explanation streams he said that Lizzie wasn’t in double or limited life because the watchers didn’t deem her ready. She subbed in for pearl, and I guess that changed the watchers mind, just for a bit. He also said that the watchers don’t force death on jimmy, they just enjoy the feeling they get of him dying first. My theory is that the watchers took Lizzie out of the games because they were proven wrong about her being ready. And the. Jimmy just died first as he usually did. (Another point that the watchers took her out is that then enderman that knocked her off wasn’t looked at, like there’s a chance but from when I was watching it didn’t seem that she looked at it.)
THE STATIC NOISE AND THE PURPLE EYES IN THE BACKGROUND?? Their sporadic flickering in and out. Joel. Joel. Lizzie's house, Joel sprinting to it and seeing the inside. The retelling of what happened. HOW JIMMY COMES UP SINGING the jarring cut from him talking about his party TO THE FULL PAN-DOWN OF EVERYONE GATHERED AS THE WARDEN IS SUMMONED... how Jimmy and BigB. two Evo members. noticeably have a purple glow in their eyes, and as does Grian, immediately after the Wither is spawned. The smoldering ground from where the lightning struck oh my god. oh my god. I am so. so so speechless
Her anger rivaled the moon Her death gives another a boon Our anger always burns brighter She took the place of another Rebellion is what the canary sings We now clip his wings He will answer the call Though she delayed his fall Watch as the sun always rejects The former allies he couldn't protect Despite his friends' servant hearts His decisions tear them apart You strayed from the path Now all shall face our wrath Remember who pulls the strings You don’t deserve the safety of green -BlueLilyFlower AO3 Am I putting this under every animatic of session 6? Yes I am. Why? Because it's fun :D
I like to imagine that because lizze just got ingored all season, the universe itself forgot about her and the watchers let her die before the canary, but hEy tHaTS JuSt A ThEoRy
AUUUGH. i see what you did with jimmys location at the end. falling into a small open cave , dying there , and waking back up at the mouth of the coalmine. absolutely wonderful
This is some stellar animation and backgrounds! Some of the animation reminds me of hand drawn stuff because of how the line thickness changes and moves. Truly well done!
The canary curse may be broken but this still stands: No more than one other player besides Jimmy, Lizzie, Mumbo, and Skizz has been eliminated from the series before any and all of those 4 who participated in that season are eliminated.
And now you see the truth... Jimmy never had a first-out-absolutely curse. It was a first-episode-with-permadeaths-he's-gone curse. And it's still intact.
Lizzie technically fell into a void in another world. Lizzy is still falling through a void. Timmy was the first to die in the actual world. The curse is never broken. Lol
Its kinda ironic and interesting that Jimmy technically broke the curse himself, since he was the one who got lizzy on red in the 1st place. He didnt mean to, but if he hadnt, the curse would of continued since he was second out
Oh my gosh this is amazing. The movement is so fluid, the colors are great, I love your style! The scene of Joel going to Lizzie's house kinda hurt, it conveyed emotion perfectly! Outstanding job my friend👏
The art and character design for this is so good! I love how Scott has those little crystals on his cheeks, and Lizzie has the fairy wings as earrings as well, and then the (antennae? Horns?) peeking up through Joel's hair and the visual of them adjusting with the frames. And I like how you made the "Joel loses his wife" series for a bit, but then Jimmy comes skipping up and what, did he do a twerk towards Joel? And the reaction image of Joel in the background. Like, dang Jimmy, be cold like that. And I absolutely loved Jimmy tapping his feet together while he was sitting on the ground next to Pearl. That part was so cute!
I can not even express how perfect this is. I've never seen anyone draw and animate the death scenes with such intense emotion before, the static in the background while Lizzie is falling into it, looking at us with that horror in her eyes.. And the way Joel ran to her house and appeared in her window as he realized her house was empty? I got goosebumps, I could feel his worry and fear. You also animated Jimmys death in such a somehow gorgeous way, how he didn't even seem angry or sad at it, he just accepted it and was suddenly stranded in his beautiful warmth of this landscape. I've seen quite a few amazing animations of Hermitcraft and Secret Life scenes but yours was the first to actually invoke honest emotions that weren't just me being in awe of the artists skill! You probably didn't plan to make some parts purposely more unfinished than others, but I feel that it really seperates the fun bits from the actually important, serious ones really well. If I only knew the characters and not what happened in the Series then I'd still be able to figure out what was going on! Great job!!!
oh my gosh this was beautiful ;-; the whole thing was so emotional. you really took me on a ride with the quiet and tense beginning, joel's sad and almost desperate reaction to lizzie's death versus jimmy's joy at being alive (and especially how you make both of those emotions continue despite each other!), the dread and panic with the warden. i absolutely love how you force jimmy into a beautiful and serene setting after such an emotional rollercoaster. i also really love your character designs! canary tim always makes me smile but i want to shout out your scott, lizzie, and mumbo designs as well-all were lovely to look at, and felt very in-character for everyone :) speaking of being in-character, jimmy's hand-through-hair and his little spin later on were really satisfying details! spectacular work, thank you for sharing :D
i think the chaos of the session was a result of the curse being broken. Jimmy was responsible from Lizzies red life, and when she died life had to go back to normal, aka killing the Canary. If he had died first less people would have died
Out of context: I love how most of them have watched eyes around them but B just hides from them, looking uncomfortable, weird abt the whole situation.
1:49 HIS HAPPY LITTLE JUMPY SPIN ;O; The fact that the majority of this is fully colored?? and that ending.. good gosh this is so cool, keep doing what you love because it's a massive gift to the fandom!
oh MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD THIS IS SO COOL AYOOOO???? ABSOLUTELY STUNNING I can't even begin how amazing and awesome this whole animatic is * Holds gently *
WOW!! Fully colored, with limb movement?! I'm so impressed! I love your interpretation of these scenes. You added such an element of drama and continuity.
Oh this is so beautiful... your colors and composition are so pretty and the few bits with full animation like Jimmy putting his hand through his hair and flapping his wings while escaping the Warden- ouuughh.... Joel's scenes like him seeing only his own reflection stare back at him from Lizzie's window is SO HEARTBREAKING, and how you drew him yelling at Scott aagghh... to then go to Jim twerking next to Joel's petrified self LMAO this animatic is making me feel too many emotions and it's not healthy for me!! And to then top it off with those absolutely gorgeous last few shots... ohh my gosh this is fantastic, I'm absolutely smitten
Don’t think the canary curse is over. It’s simply once Jimmy dies chaos starts and that’s what happened. Jimmy died then Mumbai died the Gem killed 90% of the server and just 2 or 3 episodes later it was over after a two massive wars
