Holy shit that was fantastic! Literally, these are the only words that came to mind as soon as it finished. Great job! The coloring of the kraken's tentacles being a bright red was a perfect contrast to the rest of the video.
Just when I thought this show couldn't become any more romantic and sad, you blow it out of the water with this. Just stunning--the expressions, scenes, colors, and 3D MODELS?! Did you use Blender for those? You really went all-out! This makes me very proud to be a part of this fandom.
Holy shit, this is amazing!! The parallels in the beginning and the symbolism, incredible! Their expressions and playful interactions, I could literally watch them falling deeper in love with each other! Honestly how you convey emotions within your art is beautiful and magnificent!! (Also I'm a sobbing mess after that ending)
HI HELLO I wanted to run over and quickly say that I absolutely love your use of subtle expressions, I see your use of it in a lot of your works, it's so simple yet incredibly heartwarming and one can really get a feel for a character's emotion even in little shifts of the face which is just MWAH chef's kiss
you continue to have this absolute mastery of expressions- every shift of their faces conveys so much, and you pack so, so much in the shift of an eyebrow and the twitch of a lip.
this is INCREDIBLE gods the way they look at each other, their expressions and little movements, and that final scene with the bright red kraken ahhhhhhh
I started watching our flag means death because of this animatic. I finished it all in one sitting on a school night and it was so worth it. It’s such a funny and wonderful show with wonderful representation and I adore the way Edward is portrayed. He’s sensitive and cares for Stede. He’s this big tough character but underneath that Blackbeard persona he’s a kind, fine textile and fun loving person. I also love how stede and the rest of the crew was portrayed as well. Anyway with that out of the way, this is an amazing animatic. The music choice is great, the art and expression is amazing and portrays Stede and Edward and their struggles and traumas so well.
This is absolutely breathtaking! The details, the movements, THE EXPRESSIONS???!!!! It all just so good but holy shit the expressions are just exquisite. The way Ed laughs? The way they look at each other??!! Please, my heart can only take so much...
The amount of pure skill this takes!! And the opening shot? Amazing! And the parallels and then bumping into each other on the pirate ship and the *expressions*??? All incredible. This is amazing
Holy shit i don’t think I’ve ever seen an animatic like this, the way you used 3d backgrounds with light sources and everything and the drawings were so detaileddd All the expressions were so good( I love the way you draw ed he looks so goodd) Also love how red the tentacles were it made it look so cool
God I can't believe in all my obsessing over this show I never realised the symbolism of the parallel where they say "You're not supposed to go towards a lighthouse" before Stede returns to Mary and his family 🥺🥺🥺
This is absolutely stunning and completing breathtaking. The emotion you managed to convey within the animation is amazing. It really made me feel the ups and downs of Ed and Stede being in love, but then separating. Simply amazing, awesome job!
wow. i am so overwhelmed. jesus! this was ridiculously well done- every shot was as pretty as a picture and i adore your character designs!!! holy shit, i don’t think i’ll get over this! I just wish there was even more!
losing my mind over how this isn’t blowing up right now, i hope this gets the attention it deserves cuz WOW!!! this is just phenomenal!!! amazing work and beautiful art! the composition is so good and the EMOTIONS IM SOBBING AMAZING WOW GREAT JOB
Oh SHIT!! This is amazing!! I was filled with so much joy to see Ed and Stede in this story, but the moment Ed gave himself to the kraken I felt my soul break. This is incredible!!
Omg omg omg I've been following this for ages on your Instagram and it's sooooo good. I love your use of 3D environments for cool camera angles and the bit where Stede makes Ed laugh just melts my damn heart
This is incredible, I can't stop watching this. The amount of emotions you managed to capture ! Now i'm crying again like i did while watching the finale lmao
So! I just finished the series, started it after I saw your first animatic. In pain, but glad I watched it, plus I get to fully enjoy your animatics which is always a plus. Great job as always!
I am /panting/... Holy fuck this is so gorgeous The amount of love and care that's clearly put into this is absolutely admirable Thank you so much for making and sharing this
My heart feels both full and ripped out. Amazing work, loved every frame! Here’s to hoping season 2 gets announced so I can stitch back in my heart 😂 😭
Oh my god??!?!?!! This is so fucking amazing what the heck?? Your art style is absolutely beautiful and everything from the expressions to the composition and the scenes AND THE 3D RENDERING ARE YOU KIDDING ME. This is so incredible and I thank you for putting it the time to make this, it's so well done and the story it tells is heartbreakingly beautiful. Honestly everything about this is perfection and it deserves more attention. Really, you've done an amazing job and I love it so much!

At first I saw this animatic and thought it was cool, which led me to watch the show. Now I've finished it and watched this video again, and im so effing sad now. Where's my season 2?????
commenting again because i feel the need to- this introduced me to the series (at first i thought it’s an oc animatic), and re-watching it after the last episode just breaks my heart🥲 I really want a happy ending for them
