aw yeah, time to do a giant analysis of all the fucking incredible things in this animatic... First of all, I fucking love how eerie the part before the credits is, it fits into the theme so well. Also, that pan up and then down from Elpis without and then with Helios hhhooooooly shit. I love the scenes you used for each of the lyrics, its like, exactly what I imagined when I first listened to Voices. All the characters look fantastic in your style, especially Jack, like holy hell in fucking gay. The way you editted this is so eye catching and smooth, I fucking love all the little movements the characters make. Also props to surviving having to draw "Assquez" so much, I would not be able to do that. Same with August. Also that one fucking panel where Rhys is looking at the Jack poster, fucking hell that's so good. Confused Rhys activate. I love the panel where Assquez is holding Vaughn, idk why,,, it's just ,, so good. And ooooo that pan when jack appears in the Atlas facility,,, nnHOT. I love it when the glass breaks that burst of movement is so nice and fluid hhh. also I can't forget "T-POSE WITH ME RHYS". I love loaderbot so much, just a reminder. YEET. The campfire groupshot is like so nice, I don't know if you did it on purpose but it feels like it's a parrelled to the first scene where it felt really empty and eerie, meanwhile this one has everyone and it feels really comfy and cheerful. Meanwhile Rhys is sulking in the back like the loser he is. I swear i replayed the fade from Sasha to Rhys like 40 times because it's so nice. "I always needed more" is super gay and that Jack is still my phone lockscreen. I love the way you treated the whole, "Jack takes over Rhys' body scenes". The explosion when Vallory and her goons come crashing through the glass is fucking beautiful, i love everything about it. Also the movment in the chase scene is SO SMOOTH, A. "Vaughn gets cut up nonfiguratively". also Rhys is a concerned bf. Fiona is so pretty in your style im crying. That "but for now i guess i trust you" hurts, im still pissed off at Yvette, fuck Yvette. JACK STANDING IN THE BACKGROUND WHEN HE STEPS OVER YVETTE'S BODY HHHH IM GAY OIAJFOISHFEG. Jack's office looks so fucking amazing please teach me how to draw backgrounds, the whole aethetic of it is so fucking good. THAT ONE RHYS, WITH THE FUCKING TWINKLY EYES IM DEAD HE'S SO PRETTY. And ooooooOOOO JaCK iS jUSt So HOT ALl The Time In YoUR sTyle!!! "grandpa takes a seat" hehehheheheehehe. that's the gay look, no doubt about it, he's gay, Rhys is so fucking gay. AND OOOO FUCK MY HEART STOPPED BEATING AT THE "i guess i'll keep it in the air for now" HOLY FUCK. AND THE STILL IMAGES ARE SO BEAUTIFUL I CAN'T BREATHE. HOLY SHHHHIIIIT. that one frame with dying jack looking down at rhys in the Helios wreckage hhOOOHOHOHOHOO. so fucking pretty. THE ENTIRE ENDING WITH THE RISING MUSIC IS SO FANTASTIC I CAN'T EVEN DESCRIBE HHHHHHHHHH. Also rhys just fucking falling over at the end is beautiful, thank you for this wonderful gift. SO IN CONCLUSION. you're fucking awesome and this animatic saved my life. Hope you had fun reading my nonesense ramblings.
grandpa takes a seat hehe okay memes aside AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I'M A SLUT FOR COMMENTS LIKE THESE!!!! I HAD SO MUCH FUN READING ALL YOUR "NONSENSE", YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE IT!! I'm so glad that it worked out fine in the end and you were here for when I finished it!! honestly, you were such a big inspiration for this entire project, I cannot thank you enough. ❤️❤️❤️
it’s a copy of a big giant evil bad guy who got put into mr protagonists head to make player make bad choices and make them hate mr main man so you feel bad.
1.) This introduced me to one of my favorite songs made by a RU-vid music artist. 2.) I *LOOVVVEEE* the animation!!! 3.) Personally, I like the look of Rhys and Jack the most lmao. It's just something about them that just sticks with me...idk. lol
I don’t even know borderlands but this is so good!!! Omg I love your work Atlas it’s so amazing! 💙💙💙 I just want to say that whatever you’ll be doing art-wise in the future I will be here to happily cheer you on! Sincerely, Narwhal ✨
Of course! It was so amazing chatting with you as well! The amount of work you put into these animatics is so amazing, and I hope one day I’ll be able to draw as beautifully as you! I hope we keep in touch on Discord! 💙
HALLELUJAH HOLY SHIT! This animatic was absolutely amazing! Now I wanna get into the borderlands fandom. Good thing is I know who's gonna die so that I don't have to cry when it happens :")
First,,, hahaha not really but lets just say i am by the way this is really FUCKING GOOD AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH???? IM GONNA CRY ??? LOOK AT THAT IMPROVEMENT AAA???
Okay so you've got: Borderlands: A game series I've loved since like, somewhere around age 6. Marble Hornets: My favorite SV series. and BMC: One of my top favorite musicals. What I'm trying to say is that, you're valid and I love you, no homo.
I remember this Telltale game!!! legit one second in and ur like Pro Animator like oml... also since I don’t remember all the story in this game I don’t exactly know everything happening but I’m pretty sure 3:08 this is handsome jack on the monitors but idk ALSO grrreat job luminating this part is that the right word..? Idk if I’m wrong Srry but the lighting from the monitors were rlly pretty space Lel 3:42 3:46 the fire here was really cool Hopefully you’ll have a good time with college VERY GOOD VIDEO THIS IS SOME GOOD ANIMATION/ ANIMATIC SRRY I DUNNO WAT TO CALL IT BC ITS GOOD BUT YES. cheers 🍻 for improvement
yeah man that's handsome jack on the monitors! I absolutely love that imagery so I knew I had to include it somewhere. thank you so freaking much tho like holy heck!! I am Far from a pro but that really does mean a lot to hear! ❤️❤️❤️
thank you!! Tales is much more of a Telltale game than a Borderlands game, so it may not be everyone's cup of tea, but the story is phenomenal, I highly recommend it!
THIS. This right here cause my obsession with borderlands and welp thanks for doing that cause it brightened up my life quite a bit! =) keep up with the good work and also that art style is just AMAZING
LOOK I HAD TO COME BACK TO THIS AND SAY SOMETHIHG THANK YOU! It was literally because of this video that I got into tales and Borderlands in general and God I'm so glad I decided to get the game because I liked this animatic! Of course it spoiled a lot of things but I only realized that after seeing this once I had completed the game so AGAIN THANK YOU FOR BASICALLY GETTING ME INTO ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING GAME SERIES!!!
probably not I'm afraid, but I won't say no! it would be fun to return to bmc with a new art style, after all ... I'll probably wait till they officially record it, tho, since the quality I've heard for the song currently is nothing special. And thank you so much!!
I finished Tales about a month ago and kept looking for cool stuff from other fans, came by your animatic pretty fast. I keep coming back to it, the music is perfect and even tho the drawings are rather simple, the emotions on characters' faces are incredible, especially sadness and fear. Great job, I love your version of Jack and Rhys :D
I had the honor to live through this story in real life xD In less extreme way. So when I played this I loved it to hate because I was disappointed how little effort they put into Jack manipulating Rhys. Y'know I just wanted to feel being lied to again. Being uncertain about my new Best friend and ideal. Being called insane by my closest friends. Damn it's such a shame. I think this void will put me on a path of filmmaking or something like that because I want to redo this story but with more Jack/Rhys dynamic. They wasted True genius potential. They even cared to express manipulation visually. Like how he's a hologram in his head and how he can control his hand. When I had this little drama in my life it was just like that. It was all in my head. I was so stressed because of something that none else could see. Everyone kinda called me insane xD And was concerned about me. See...they depicted it visually Perfectly. But... why didn't they make Jack act like it ? Like manipulating Rhys by telling him his story full of good intentions from the whole beginning ? Or being a reason you actually pick the bad decisions ? Or bullying Rhys and then try to save it by telling jokes so they have some meaning ? I just wish they would do this so much !
Me before knowing TFTB: woah this is like REALLY COOL Me after knowing TFTB (slight spoiler warning): HOLY HELL LIKE THIS IS A MASTERPIECE AND I'M SHOOK WHEN HANDSOME JACK TRIES TO KILL RHYS LIKE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Great video if you couldn't tell!!
With JACK seeing the future which included his own "death" as well as the map of the other vaults that were shown only after he “dies” and a body double that rhymes with Jimothy who not only underwent extensive surgery and psychological evaluations, but even more once he was reborn as HANDSOME Jack. Well I foresee another "Sup" moment in Borderlands 3.
YES!!! ITS UP!! im totally so proud of you!! its definitely your best work yet and im happy i got you watch you finish it up (and was the first ever to watch it in full but shhhh). im so happy this is done and im also glad i finished the game in time too! im insanely proud of you in so many ways that i really cant put into words how amazing this is. im truthfully stunned at how much you’ve improved in such a short while, is magical. 💖💖
God this is great. Wonderfully animated and the song choice is perfect. Rhys and Jack and their dynamic was my favorite part of the game. I wish there had been more of a choice involved when it came to the end of their storyline.
Great work! And Rhys is literally crying in this one, that was a really nice detail, since he kept mourning Jack even after he removed the Echo eye. It was shown in the game that he didn't want to do this & when Fiona tried to annoy him about this, he just stood there, shoulders down, he was so sad about it. I have a headcanon that he brought him back at some point, just made it less dangerous. Thus really loved him. And the lyrics is on point. Thank you. The subtitles would be nice, tho, since I wasn't able to understand some of it with my hearing. I suck at this.
I fucking grew up with that game on my ps3. Its been like how much? 6 years? Basically i bought it when it was released. And I’m still playing it and enjoying every second of it.
I honestly thought this was a be more chill animatic before I read the title. Especially because the first line was “the voices in my head” and I thought it was some sort of extra I didn’t know about.
coming back feels so weird, this was my first introduction to borderlands and animatics as a whole. amazing. got me into the song in general and its first im my playlist. thank you for making me a borderlands fan
Anyone got a random feeling that jack may appear in borderland 3 Cause i really want to see jack for like either to see Rhys or something like a plot twist. Great animation by the film and love this music.
idk if I ever commented on this. if I did, enjoy another comment REGARDLESS This is gorgeous. This is the animatic that got me to look into TFTBL, got me to order it that same day, and then play it nonstop. So 1) thank you 2) THIS IS SO GOOD WHAT THE FUDEG
Is it bad to say i still want Handsome Jack to win? At something? I mean come on.... He's a tragic hero that was betrayed by friends and loved ones, had his girlfriend killed and his face disfigured by the b**ch of a siren Lilith.... Who i honestly didn't care for from the start. Roland.... Roland i do miss. And Bloodwing. I don't forgive Jack for those kills XD But.... Just give Jack a win. Guy does deserve it. Mostly. He does try to kill all bandits. Trying to tame Pandora. And his vengeance against thr crimson raiders is understandable...... They did stab him in the back.... Eh. I'm a Handsome Jack fan. He's still the best villain/character. Tied with Fl4k cuz he's also hilarious to listen to XD
Two years ago this animatic sparked my interest in the Borderlands franchise and led to the spiral of events where I'm now playing through Borderlands 2 with a friend for the first time. (And loving it! :D)
I don't usually coment on stuff, but I just got to say that this is absolutely beautiful to watch and it's just SO COOL LOOKING! Like gosh dude wonderful work!
You have no idea how much I love this!!!!! I watch it over and over and I see more and more details...I love it so much. Also the little hair floof effects in line with the beat is my jam, hehe. 🤘
3:38. He (It??) was gone so fast, I didn't even have any time to feel something. XD Also, do not worry! I will go check out this game, AFTER I've watched this animation a couple times more.
This is absolutely amazing! So many different feelings are shown so well, the art is beautiful, I could go on and on with how amazing this is. Only one problem. Where’s my pepis room?
Unholy crap, everything about this is great. The song, the changed character design, transitions, timing and actions are all incredible. This must of taken you forever to do but it turned out as the best animatic I've ever seen!
OH! I kept wondering why your animation and art was so familiar to me and THEN I saw you also made those Be More Chill animatics that I kept watching when I was still hyperfixating on that. Your art was wonderful before, but it's improved since the last thing if your's I watched and it's absolutely stunning. I love this. Holy shit.
Hhhhm I'm watching this and the part with jack getting into the hyperion ship it went he was in the chair and the thing that took Jack's data into the ship was a surprise and then the main character got his hand stuck on the chair it's hard to explain that part but yeah so I guess it's fine but doesn't have all the stuff from the game
