I'm so glad it still works for you! Thank you for your kind comment!

Thank you so much ^^ It took so long to make, I can't believe I spent 3 years making this and it is so short as well XD I'm really glad you liked it! ^-^

This song has held me, not only my interest, for the better part of 3 years, while listening to it sometimes only a few seconds at a time in a loop. The level of detail keeps revealing itself to the listener to the point that even now, I find bits of it I feel like I never heard before or not pay enough attention, and I should have added a little something to the frame at that time. I think this is part of the genius of Jacob Collier, sometimes the song that people have overlooked for years is one of the most intricate musical lace work and finally shows its true nature while looking at what some random guy on the internet thought its music video should look like. I'm really glad you enjoyed it so! Thank you for your kind comment ^-^

I have a bit of experience, but mostly making music video, professionally, not 3D animation (and I was really not a good animator starting this project). I'm really glad you enjoyed the journey ^^ Thank you so much for your comment!

@@laeianimation You learn the most, if you are not good enough I guess, lovely to hear! I just love this work, and all in all everything which correlates with Jacob's art. You created new art because of his art. Thanks!

Awh, thank you so much. I'm really glad it touched you so. I did find this song magical and all along the long process of making this animation, listening to the song over and over, sometimes only a few seconds at a time, I did find all the subtle magic, the queues, the little shimmer, and I felt like this had to become like a mythical magical dialog between them. The lyrics leave a lot of room for interpretation so I went with my take on what's happening. I really felt like Jacob should take off, spreading his wings on that emotional beat. Thank you so much for sharing your experience, you made my day ^^

@@kayfi2001 thank you

Thank you so much for watching Danny! I'm glad you liked it.

Bonjour, le film entier est disponible sur www.editions-harmattan.fr/index.asp?navig=catalogue&obj=video&no=3693 ainsi qu'en DVD sur le site de la FNAC.

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

@@laeianimation It's absolutely amazing 💖

Thank you so much, this song has not stopped surprising me, even after listening to it in 2 second chunks over, and over again, for about 3 years. I hear it now, and I feel an enormous attachment to it, as you can imagine, but it still keeps taking me for a ride. I'm really glad you appreciated the animation <3

Merci à toi pour ta participation !

Hello dear Luna, Thank you so much for your kind comment. It's very moving reading how special this animation feels to you. I'm really glad I got to carry it to term as it was a gruelling 3-year long battle and I'm not sure I'd ever want to do something like that again. I'm listening to Djesse vol. 4 one track a week. I'm completely overjoyed by "Bridge over Troubled Water", and the breakdown was just fantastic, but I have so much more music left to listen to. We have a facebook group "The Super-Ultra-Hyper-Mega-Meta Jacob Collier Society" where like minded people rave about all things Jacob, if you're looking for people who feel the same. Cheers!

@@laeianimation if i had a facebook i would be there in a heartbeat.

@@lunameriweather7693There is a discord server as well : The Hideaway if it's more your thing ^-^

@@laeianimation i'll be there ASAP

@@laeianimation is the hideaway the server in your bio?

Thank you so much ^^

I may just not know how to promote it. But it has the viewers that matters 😁

Awh, thank you so much. The thing about making it in animation is that every shot takes so much time, you listen to the music in a way no-one in their right mind ever will: by chunks of 2 to 5 seconds over a period of weeks by chunk, before moving on to the next bit; it's properly insane and I don't think many other musicians song would hold up to such scrutiny for more than 3 years! But honestly, Jacob Collier's music does. I'm still listening to this song, for fun. I'm really glad you liked the animation, thank you again for your comment!

@@laeianimation Didn't even think about that, wow!

Well.... Thank you, I guess 😅

Awh, thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it.

Merci beaucoup, j'en ai moi-même versé quelques une en la faisant je t'avoue ^^

Oh my, well, thank you so much for watching ^-^

Owh, thank you so much! That's exactly what I was going for (and I feel like "magically, surprising yet coherent" is the perfect definition for Jacob's music as well!). Thank you for watching, I'm glad you liked it ^-^

Thank you so very much for your kind comment... I'm really glad you enjoyed it ^-^

That is so kind, thank you so much. This project took a lot out of me, I am so glad it found people like you who appreciate it. Thank you so much for you kind comment!

Now that's a good question... what are your technical limitations? Is it to run in a game engine? if so I don't think its very different to any other rigging. Or do you want a simulated motion of the hose? but using bones? I'm curious now!

@@laeianimation I made a project like Offshore spm animation for hoses and crane I started with max some of points I stuck then I finished that project with help of blender also blender is soo easy but I like max but some time I stuck can you do a Offshore hose animation like real world dinamic simulation with ocena and hose and crane

@Loading, I think there is two different problems in you idea... I found that when I do something and I want it to look like the real world I get into complicated territories like "making realistic simulated waves". But then I try to cut the problem into smaller parts : - The waves on the one hand you can do with a simple deformation helper called wave or ripple, and the rest of the complexity can be a displacement shader -- then your deformation helper can move the water surface as well as either directly your hose mesh or a spline that you can use as a bone object (just apply a skin to the hose mesh, as a modifier, then use a spline as a bone and that should do the trick) - On the other hand you have the rest of the motion floating on the surface, that can be a maxscript or just a projection controler. - and finally the crane is some rigging. This guy as awesome rigging tutorials for mechanical systems: www.youtube.com/@larsem8 If you need all of it to be procedural, this may be really slow in the end and not very usable. Houdini or Blender may be a lot more stable with a fully procedural system like this one I think. If you have more questions, please, find me on Discord!

Thank you for watching ^^ So nice of you to say that!

Thank you for supporting me through the last stretch of this absurd journey, I'm so glad you enjoyed it ^-^

Thank you so much, I'm really glad you got so excited by this project. Unfortunately, making one of these took 3 years of full time work, and I do not have it in me to do that again. It was utter madness to even attempt making one, and Covid time had more than a little to do with the fact that I felt it was okay to keep on working on it. But it is a personal time and financial investment that I just cannot afford a second time. "You and I" wouldn't have been on my short list, even though it is a lovely song, I really need a story to start off of. ^-^

@@laeianimation It's cool, brother. Thank you for your response. And congratulations again on the project. 🤩

Oh, thank you so much ^-^ I'm actually a bit numb, I can't really quite understand that it is done yet... I'm still expecting to wake up tomorrow and have another shot to make... it's gonna take some time to sink in, I reckon. I'm planning on making the final Behind the scenes and then archive the project... but truly I'm really glad you liked it.

Oh my goodness, thank you for your comment, so glad it touched you so. ^-^

Awh, thank you so much, I'm really glad this video is appreciated the way it is. As for Jacob, you should check out the pinned comment ^^ Thank you again for your kind words!

Is this really medically sound? Anywho, it was made for you, so, have at it ^^

awh, you're too kind. I'm glad you liked it!

You are far too kind, thank you so much. I am honestly just relived he didn't take offense over my crude portrayal of him ^-^

This was a lot of work... no one should ever make a 3D animation alone and without access to suitable hardware, this is ridiculousness incarnate! So it took ages (and I still don't realize I'm actually done). Thank you for hanging on all this time. I'm really glad you feel it was worth the wait ^-^

Thank you so much ^-^

Thank you so much ^^

Well, that's absurdly surreal. Thank you so much for making such a great song, I enjoyed listening to probably a good million times. I'm still discovering little sounds and flutters I've never noticed before even after all that time. Thank you for watching, I'm really glad you enjoyed it, that means a lot. ^-^

Dear Jacob: My family and I would like to join in thanking you very much for this masterpiece, enlivened by this stunning animation. We have always interpreted this song as a broader meditation on the beauty and fragility of Mother Earth. May your creativity continue to flow like ocean wide, canyon deep!

Jacob, your music is the cure.

It warms my heart that this animation is now complete!! And finding Jacob's comment here really made me smile! Awesome work!! ❤ Congrats for the journey!

This has to be the official music video for this song!

Thank you, you are far too kind. I'm glad you liked it!

Thank you so much ^^
