Dear Evan Hansen - Sincerely Me [Animatic]

Freshman year is finally over! I have so much time to make animatics now. I'm so relieved. I mean, technically it ended two weeks ago but I'm still allowed to celebrate.
I struggled a lot with the end of this one. So many "sincerely's" to fill. It was really hard, but I napped on it and I figured it out. Naps are good for the soul.
I think my next DEH animatic will be either Waving Through a Window or Requiem. I'm leaning towards Requiem because I wanna draw Connor's dad. I may do a BMC animatic next, though. #grayoblongpill
Also, happy pride month!
Frames: 302
Time: 2 weeks
Mango juice consumed: 8 cartons
A couple notes:
- The forest that they have a fantasy sequence in is the same forest Evan tried to kill himself in.
- Why does Evan own a skateboard?
I headcanon that Evan's dad sent him a skateboard for his birthday because he had no idea what he actually wanted. Evan managed to actually learn to skate! But he can't do any tricks. Lame.
- How did Evan lift up Connor with a broken arm?
It's a fantasy sequence, Connor isn't real. I'm pretty sure unreal (and dead) people don't weigh anything.
- Connor catching the letter in the beginning is supposed to be a parallel to Good For You.
- I watched a loooot of Ed, Edd, and Eddy while making this. Good show.

[@sparklinglumas1685]

I wish I could draw or animate because I really want to do waving through the window! Do you have any tiles for animating, you know freshman to freshman, animator to animator?

[@sparklinglumas1685]

Thanks so much for the tips! I've always loved to draw and this is a great to show off work X3. But those are really good tips and I'll use them a lot. To be honest thank you so much

[@mothmadi_]

whoooo this kinda helped me too i just can't animate stuff bc no way to actually draw it

[@prettyyinpunk0]

If you need help drawing people, watch speedpaints. It sounds stupid, but just watch and pay attention to the techniques used and how they sketch out the characters and things like that.

[@drakniath3131]

Sparklinglumas I can draw faces but I can't draw bodies to my characters.

[@maxaroni39]

Thanks for this! My dad bought drawing and animation programs, but I struggle with drawing on a pad (there's no screen on the pad, that's too expensive.) Any tips?

[@typingum2948]

I love the fact that when Evan throws Conner out the window his cast says "Beefy" This is one is the best Sincerely Me I have ever watched *Cough* And gayest *Cough*

[@Ari_A1357]

Insaityle very true

[@mothmadi_]

not for me! ive seen gayer (there's this one that was done on paper but it's really good)

[@typingum2948]

I think I've seen that one. It was pretty good too!

[@paigemitts6350]

I’ve seen gayer

[@meidiocre]

I won't lie my favourite part is just how _done_ Jared is half the time. he's like nope. wtf dude. why

[@dwade3mvp3]

Jared: Are we *done* yet?

[@hotdog1161]

meidiocre "kinky!"

[@shannonparis30]

Until the end, Jared falling the pond, etc, and Jared being jared....I mean this is adorable and funnyReminds me of a funny cartoon where there is hijinks involved

[@zebrallama6720]

"Im sending pictures of the most amazing trees" *proceeds to chuck Connor out the window*

[@madeegaindraws]

He threw him into the calendar with pictures of trees on it

[@kyleeagustin119]

"YAS GURL"

[@izzyornquist5084]

kylee roxana - printer 2016 or 17 Idk

[@imadethisaccountoutofbored3798]

Nice pfp :3

[@alexc1060]

When ghost connor is waving through the window (lol) and evan is like "nOPE" and turns back like "did this connor see that connor?"

[@gabrielleelaine4093]

Ale Carvajal 😂

[@kead_davidson]

The ghost of Connor does not approve of your lies Evan...

[@gamzednz8122]

Throwing him out into a forest, those extra sounds and drawing the curtains for conners ghost, those little details made it even better :D

[@HamiltonIsLife]

Gamze Dnz love the deatail like the sounds and lighting love it 😍

[@tuononnovainbici]

Not to mention all the little notes here and there and the different things written on Evan's cast (at 2:58 there's "You will be found" XD). Plus all Jared is golden.

[@maxaroni39]

Yes! This is definitely my favorite animatic for the song. It gets everything right. The little messages, the art, the forest sequence! I want to get into animation, and this here is goals!

[@alexanderhamilton7072]

this is how you know your gay 1.) constant touching 2.) heart eyes 3.) Jared writing a fucking email

[@tuononnovainbici]

Shall we also mention the super sweet "run into arms and get pulled up" thing at 3:18?

[@Maggie66851]

When you notice that the printer could've said "canon" instead of "canom"

[@gabey_babey7420]

JARED WITH THE LILY PAD ON TOP OF HIS HEAD IM W HE AZING G OOD BY E

[@macyr.3786]

i think this is my new fave sincerely me animatic just because of the scene where the real ghost connor peeks in like "WHAT the fuck are you doing"

[@evapohtwo0998]

Loving the sounds in this. But Connor is waving through a window now xD

[@happylieke8086]

The way Conner interacts and dissapears is really creative! This is a great animation with interesting movement, this is really good! And I subscribed.

[@thatonepunkguy]

THIS IS INSANELY GOOD LIKE HOW also, Jared's face as Connor pushes him around in the rolly chair is great 😂😝

[@madeegaindraws]

OMG YES!!!

[@totothesquid6239]

Yes! I needed this! The little animation of Connor grabbing the letter in the beginning and Connor's.... seductive movement is amazing. Your art is practically perfect! Keep making amazing animations like this!

[@daisyhazeldine3733]

*"Awesome Guitar Riff"* Being deaf pays off sometimes, captions are pretty 10/10.

[@sorbet_salamanderd2014]

Is.... Is Jared Kleinman jealous? ❤️

[@sorbet_salamanderd2014]

teddy you know it 😏🏳️‍🌈

[@mothmadi_]

*gay for bathbombs

[@miathomas5205]

The insanly cool jared kleinman? No way

[@heartheater07]

[@lolhi8609]

OOooOoohHHhhhhhH

[@MangoBoba]

OMG THIS IS THE BEST ONE IVE SEEN

[@emilyloraine8391]

I agree!!! IT'S SO GOOD

[@tomitheunderestimated222]

Kit kat I agree!!!! I was so starstruck this whole time! (Tree bro's though :3)

[@harlow5985]

Kit kat *SAME*

[@lol-bj2ew]

CONNOR'S HAIR IS SO LUSCIOUS

[@TheAmityElf]

Great imaginative imagery, great jealous Jared, and great Connor outside the window.

[@user-ro1co4lm4j]

love how it increasingly gets gayer every second

[@CronaIs]

I'm actually really happy to notice that Fantasy Conner (the one Evan makes up) and Ghost Conner ('real' Conner) are two different entities in this animatic. I like to see them (in the play anyway) as Open Hoodie Conner = Fantasy Conner/the 'Open-and-sharing-to-Evan' Conner and Closed Hoodie Conner, the one we see at the beginning of the play, as the well, closed-and-only-real-Conner-we-see Conner. (cough) Anyway that was a tangent - really love the Animations - Keep it up! :D

[@user-fv8hc6yt1e]

*cough* Jared jealous *cough* 1:23

[@annanemone3260]

I SEE THE SKATEBOARD EVAN SLIPPED ON IN YOUR GOOD FOR YOU ANIMATIC

[@annanemone3260]

OH WOW HE SLIPPED ON IT AGAIN, OH EVAN

[@matariimau]

Technically, he slipped on it again in GRY if you're following the musical's timeline.

[@CatherinesClaws]

[@eaglefan2569]

2:53 "The only man that I love is my dad." I loved the entirety of this but one thing keeps being forgotten: Evan is rubbing his neck when they're talking about dads, as if to say, "Yeah.... I love my dad...." And it just IMMEDIATELY reminded me of, "Is a truck taking away Mommy too?"

[@user-js5ff8ng6x]

DANG CONNOR LOOKS HOT IN THIS!!! When doesn't he look hot tho?!

[@user-js5ff8ng6x]

I love this btw Jared is also adorable and so is Evan ^-^

[@chloe8387]

THIS WAS THE BEST SINCERELY ME ANIMATIC IVE SEEN LIKE THE WHOLE SCENE CHANGES AND TRANSITIONS AND SOUND EFFECTS AND EVERYTHING IT WAS SO GOOD

[@bramblechaser162]

The movement is so good!!! I can hardly contain myself! And the expressions are so entertaining. Plus the little extras here and there are just genius! So freaking awesome!

[@cqssie_9345]

This is DEFINITELY my favorite animatic of all time... I have no idea why it's just soooo good. I hope you find the time to make it into a full animation 👍🏻

[@mimij3870]

This is by far my favorite animatics from this musical if not my favorite of all time! Thanks a lot for this. I just love how beautifully drawn your art style and I want my art style to be almost like this when I find mine. You deserve all of the subscriBEARS you have! See I can be funny too lol

[@mimij3870]

I also love how you did those little extra effects you made and those little funny side notes that just made it ten times better

[@mimij3870]

Thanks so much for checking out my comment! Even though you did it for basically everyone's comment it still means the world to me!!

[@AnUnusedPoolTable]

I love how you drew Jared. He seems to get slowly more agitated over time. Like when Connor was pushing Jared around in the chair.

[@Mewlynnmagic]

my eyes have been blessed

[@lonnielibson]

*OH MY GOD YES YOU POSTED!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS, AND I AM IN LOVE WITH IT!!*

[@isabellebergdahl6137]

[@Ziksua]

this is too god to be real!!! thanks for sharing your work!!! is amazing♡♡♡♡

[@Flash-mv8rn]

The part where even closes the curtains on the real Connor and jumps into made-up connor's arms is so like I can't even explain it it gives me a lot of emotions. Also the entire scene in the forest is so unique it was really cool and no else has done that yet. This is a really good animatic please keep animating!!

[@mariahjackson2386]

[@kangaroo3874]

This is WILD I LOVE IT. The animatic is very original and different from the usual deh ones I see. Good job!

[@wafflethief6622]

God, this is one of the best animatics I've ever seen. Your art style is absolutely gorgeous and the things that you add in the background and the real feeling of a journey in it. It's amazing.

[@TheDimensionDweller]

This was so much fun! I love how you took the scene other places than the bedroom (Evan throwing Connor through the window and Ghost Connor staring through the window were particularly hilarious)

[@TheGrayHalo]

this is amazing aaaa your art is very pretty

[@mowang06]

Ok... Words fail (heh) when it comes to describing this animatic. I mean, the transitions, the creativeness, the style, its all amazing! I love how Connor was watching Evan fake their emails and was angry, but a funny angry. Its just so funny and beautiful! Keep doing what'cha do!

[@aristoteles3979]

" FRIEND "

[@OrbManson7]

The fluidity, the extra effort to add to this scene with the forest and the water, the expression work, I'm in love with the amount of hard work and love that went into this, omg

[@boopyournose7569]

I love your freaking sound effects!!! :o u a frickin animatic wizardddddddd

[@RandomNerd654]

*Looks at Connor* How does one manage to still be iconic even after death?

[@honestlyhavenoclue4307]

few things in 0:24 Evans gay distress is honestly perfect Connor's hair and just.. Jared

[@charlotteharley7107]

i think this is the best deh animatic i've ever seen - the style, the expressions, the sound effects, the fact that connor really directly interacts with them, wow i just love this

[@patricia-zr4kl]

This is so fucking beautiful. I can't even- no its just gorgeous. THIS IS PERFECTION! *subscribes n likes*

[@ynlikesgirls]

this is the best animatic I've seen of this song!!! I absolutely love this!!! 😍

[@loupie]

2:13 THAT IS SO FUCKING CUTE I LOVE THIS ENTIRE ANIMATIC

[@zzeddler3994]

I love how dramatic Conner acts and how he disappears and reappears. This is amazing!

[@_vanilla.and.tea_3480]

I love how the DEH fandom just kinda ignores the fact that Connor's dead

[@ihateme3097]

I love how you draw mouths and how you acknowledge any mistakes or anything you couldn't do, along with how instead of them staying in one spot, there's movement and the scene changes. I also liked the sound effects c:

[@pastelpretell]

3:04 Getting better everyday club

[@mishy1654]

I'm absolutely in love with each facial expression and how casual the actions are drawn Can't help but to watch this over again!

[@sunfreckledmoonchild]

This is so incredibly fun! What a wonderful job!

[@elliesmile8939]

This is AWESOME! It's legit one of the best animatics I've ever seen, you even added sound effects! It flows really well and the art style is top! Congrats!!

[@cupid2322]

YASSSSSS

[@LumosVeil]

Heck this has to be one of the best Sincerely Me animatics I’ve seen! Not only does it have amazing visuals, it has some actual animations, amazing backgrounds, creativity, and your style is simply amazing! I also love the additions of real ghost Connor, and small bits of sound effects. I know this is really late but I just wanted to say this is still really fantastic!

[@aldulfs]

The best moment totally no homo in this animatic (? 2:45 I love it!!!!!!😙😙😙💖💖

[@rougemochi429]

i really love the transition clips. like the beginning when connor grabs the piece of paper, or when jared throws a pillow at the 'camera' or like when evan throws connor through the calendar. its pretty awesome tbh. i want to get better at animation and this is the kind of stuff that really motivates me. ik im like 3 years late 😂 but good job
