My favourite shot is the strings shot since it shows everyone's negative side. It shows how: Niki is still sad from what happened during the war (not dark but not happy). Ranboo was shot twice when he first joined. Tubbo has 2 cannon lives missing and is becoming Schlatt (horns). Ghostbur is very dead. Eret is still in power because of Dream; his crown is highlighted in red and he has strings attached. Fundy still sad about dead dad. Quackity is on 2 lives and has blood on his hands, could be butcher army reference or murderous tendencies (not sure) Sapnap is literally backstabbed by Dream. George only gets a crown when dream is shown pulling the strings. Also Tubbo, Eret, Fundy, Quackity, Sapnap and George are the only ones with strings attached. I think this is the levels that everyone is being manipulated by with Tubbo, Fundy and Quackity only have strings on their arms whereas Eret, Sapnap and George are wrapped in string. Also the line is "I truly like the art when I kinda hate the artist" at least to me means Tommy likes the people, just not the fact that they're being completely manipulated by Drean. I'm probably looking into it too much but that's just how I interpreted it. Also I would kill to draw anatomy that well.
I agree with you on everything except fundy, because fundy and dream are engaged and in their wedding George objected and ran off with dream so I thing in that particular scene the broken heart on Fundys chest represents the heartbreak he would’ve felt on the wedding
Never have I had the visceral hatred I feel for dsmp!dream displayed so succinctly. Anyone else been like "just die already" to that character since the start of December? cuz I have.
NOOOOOO this makes me feel really bad for Tommy's character, like all his family did terrible things and that's just how he grew up, having role models that influenced him to do the wrong things
in my opinion the only person tommy can trust right now ist Sam hes been like a father for tommy thats just my opinion tho because Literally some people (wilbur/techno/philza) left tommy [i think] except for sam and i guess captain puffy too [[ik its a rp]]
@@sleepyrn3464 Techno literally blew up a whole country and made everyone homeless, what the fuck do you mean. Just cause you were honest about doing a crime doesn't mean you're absolved from the crime, that's not how it works.
Okay, this is one of my favourites now. It’s 47 seconds long, but I can see how many details are concentrated here. In EVERY second. I’m waiting for someone else to spot them. Because I can’t explain them all...
Okay, the ‘wouldn’t ever come so far without someone else to start it’ hit me hard idk why Also, how his role models, In this case, Wilbur, Techno and Phil are only known or taken into account for the bad things they did, and no one ever looks at the good they had done.
THE SYMBOLISM AND DOUBLE MEANINGS, THE SONG CHOICE, THE ART STYLE, IM LITERALLY FREAKING OUT THIS IS SO SICK HOW DO YOU EVEN CREATE SOMETHING AS AWESOME AS THIS, THE PUPPETEER SHOT I LITERALLY CANT ITS SO GOOD
“I used to say just what’s on my brain cause you always did, you used to be so special to me now you’ve taken it, look at this mess should I forget what you gave to me, look at this mess wake up mr west.” YO why am I only now realizing how this song fits Tommy. Love this so muchhh great work 💖 :D
It's incredible how Tommy is the most loud and childish of the family but he's actually the only one who still faithful to l'Manberg and act as a hero to protect it and its people
Your animatics are some of the best. I love your art style and character design. You have probably my favorite Jschlatt design out of every DSMP animatic ive seen. And ive seen at least 100.
'Can I truly love the art When I kinda hate the artist' Now this hits very hard, especially with current allegations ;;; That aside, absolutely stunning animatic, it's portraying the character very well!! Amazing job ^^
The flag transition from Tommy to Wilbur was so well animated and the string image was absolutely awesome, I love Dream as the puppeteer. Everyone knows it's happening but it hasn't stopped yet.
I believe that Tommy’s arc was supposed to expose how much he depends on others. That’s obviously not what the entire arc was for, but that’s one of the things that came from it. It’s a good thing that that trait of his got exposed, but I think they could have built off of it more. What I mean is his character could have changed and became more independent after realizing how much he depended on others to succeed.
@@asura3229 if you mean him becoming more independent, then I don’t think it was shown then. He left Techno to join a entire _nation_ . He was more independent when he was with Techno and Phil.
i am no joke telling you this from the very bottom of my heart: this is now my favorite video on the entire internet. if you think im lying, you're wrong this is literally so perfect omg
idk why when i think about the plot and stuff it creeps me out. like the fact that tommy really looked up to wilbur and saying multiple times that he was really cool then wilbur plummeting into madness and blowing up lamanburg. Then dream is controlling and manipulating everyone including his own friends. in tommy’s recent stream when dream revealed that he was manipulating tubbo to be his friend only to get the discs back and gain all power and then teaming up with tecno after tommy betrayed tecno to destroy lamanburg entirely. i’m probably the only that feels this way lol
God I love AJR and to see you use this song so well in terms of Tommy's character is just amazing. Im obsessed with the shot during "Would have never come so far without someone there to start it"
Also seeing transitions between before election Wilbur and post election Wilbur is really cool, and also sad... at least he’s cheerful in death, despite the cost. Although the whole revival thing is going terribly and has me worried.
All of your animatics are so well drawn and put together I can’t even begin to describe it, from the way all of it links together to the artstyle is just so pleasing to watch. You’ve got great things ahead and I’ll be here to see it work out
I don't see many people use AJR for animatics and things like that, if they do they usually do Bang!, so it really made me happy that I saw someone finally use a different song. I also really like the art
OMGG When the flag transitions to reveal Wilbur I just cannot express how well this fits!! Also thank you for combining two of my fav things, dream SMP and AJR!! You're so talented!!!!💖💖💖
This animatic was the first one I ever watched when I joined the fandom, and my god it's weird to think about the fact that it's almost been a year since then ^^'
YES GOOD. This song fits so well for the kids on the smp (tommy and tubbo more specifically), and this is super well done! your transitions are fantastic!! the transition on "would have never come so far without someone there to start again" gave me chills. absolutely wonderful work!!!
THIS IS SO WELL DONE!!! i love how tommy's expressions change, even when there aren't lyrics -- it gives him, and the video, so much life, and it's clear how much effort was put into it. i LOVED the transition from the disc to the compass, as well as the strings attached to everyone -- seriously, this is SO good. and as always, i'm a sucker for sbi angst :] definitely subscribing!!
AN AJR ANIMATIC FOR DSMP I THINK I'LL FAINT!!! I never actually considered this song but it is incredible! I love how you show their "bad" sides with dream as the so-called Artist controlling them all. Absolutely fantastic!
i love ajr so i automatically like this but the "i will unravel when you take away my best pieces" and right after you show tommy without tubbo and mellohi omg
I love basically everything about this, but the one thing I want to mention that I haven't seen other people comment on already is how well the audio is blended with the beginning and the ending of the song. Like, if I didn't recognize the song and how AJR sings the chorus of the song differently at the beginning vs the end of the song, I wouldn't have noticed. Obviously all the visuals are amazing, but I'd just be a broken record if I went into detail on all the cool visual stuff.
You know during Tommy’s exile when he said “because he’ll take the one thing I care about” we all knew he meant tubbo (idk I forgot I’ll edit it when I rewatch the stream)
Dude I am sobbing the scene at 0:33 broke me I paused to see almost every frame this is amazing And the way techno stays consistently regal yet a threat on the background Also the fact that Ghostbur is the only one without strings and he is the only one who is dead Call me a stan but-
