DINE [Lethal Company Animated Short Film]

[@PurpleBan]

Would anyone be interested in a Behind The Scenes on this video? I figured since I have a lot of footage and old renders and stuff, I could do a pretty decent BTS on it if anyone is interested.

[@anggermiftahuddin1858]

Yes! that would be cool!

[@TopRau]

Sure

[@LxrdSwift]

Absolutely!

[@Xzepheated404]

I would thoroughly enjoy this

[@pumpkinpyewastaken]

Yeah

[@EmperorAmbrose]

I'm impressed with the shotgun bit that a lot of people end to overlook, with there being two triggers!

[@PurpleBan]

Thank you! I figured since there was only one shell on the nutcrackers belt before it reloaded, it would make sense for there to only be one shell in the gun.

[@notwell3605]

good ending version of the nutcracker short?

[@crittomato7043]

True, I have seen the shotgun to be double pull, light pull is for 1st shot and stonger pull is for 2nd or both if the game had such mechanic

[@diztinger]

Dine is the perfect moon for dying. I don't make the rules, it's been like this since the game released.

[@supadupafred1644]

the ending is so sad, really great film

[@A.U.military]

"the one crewmate that was afk in the ship watching the map" 😶

[@jacklikescats]

This is how games should be adapted into TV. I would watch this as a TV Show. Keep doing what you do best

[@PurpleBan]

I am planning on making another. Just not not quite yet.

[@jacklikescats]

@@PurpleBan I’ll watch and like

[@ThePopeOfAllDope]

Clair de Lune and mansion interior is a vibe I’m not sure how to feel about lol

[@lucasarmas9198]

That ending. If having that situation happen in a game already feels crushingly hopeless i cant imagine how it must be in real life with real stakes and losses.

[@Fungal_Leech]

You're HORRIFYINGLY underrated man. Amazing job.

[@Jrowble]

k but like we all been there we know how that feels when a loving teammate gets killed by a Bracken out of nowhere lolll

[@PurpleBan]

[@alanavalos6645]

The nutcracker short Alt ending

[@PurpleBan]

Yeah, I took heaving inspiration from that animation, I love it.

[@embyrkitten]

OH MY GOODNESS HOW ON EARTH DOES THIS ONLY HAVE 3.9K?!?!?!?!? This is literally incredible! The voice acting, the animation, the storyline, and oh my goodness the attention to detail!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks so much!

[@TyduzT]

I like how the nutcrackers eye doing expression

[@GaronTheGreat]

This was actually good, and it’s so sad but also incredibly written and animated it is, especially when you can see green lost all hope, not a single line of dialogue, just silence, and a dead man. Excellent stuff! ❤

[@roland2852]

The little HUD on the helmets is really cool. And the music choice is awesome

[@blugunrepublic9760]

A good way of showing the Nutcrackers as a sort of guard and not A.I monster with ambit and the ability to sometimes shoot through walls.

[@BruhMoment27917]

Yo this is actually REALLY good, this guys needs more attention, and really deserves it!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks so much! This did have like 1.5k views but youtube got rid of like 600 of them for some reason.

[@BruhMoment27917]

@@PurpleBan dam, that’s unfortunate, keep up the good work this was incredible, and you got some seriously good talent. If your open to suggestions, I’d love to see another animation but for the outside, maybe smth like with the tree giant on rend or march, that would be cool. Ngl you’re seriously underrated!

[@PurpleBan]

@@BruhMoment27917 I already had somewhat of a plan for my next animation, but since you're the second person to ask for a forest giant one, I might consider that instead.

[@LaphyTaphyCreation]

Love the Clair de lune music in the back, it's a perfect mix of ominous and comfort , in this animation goes hard! 👍

[@fabiofanf3e813]

The most peaceful DINE run.

[@Brjskdbeikaheus]

Horrifying, depressing, and extremely well done! Just as a Lethal Company short film should be

[@AquaGS_]

Its really surprising how little attention this animation has gotten, you're stupidly underrated man! Great job!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks! But to me ~10k views is a lot of attention, non of my other videos tend to go above 200. So I'm grateful.

[@VeroMaxis]

4:07 now that Black Ops 6 is out.... anyone else hearing it in their head? "Tear them to pieces!" It lives rent free in my head whenever i hear that sound lol

[@someone-o9d3k]

idk why but Clair de lune just fits a mansion on dine so well

[@PurpleBan]

Well, credit goes to @therBAYG for that idea

[@juancremagalvez9769]

This deserves WAY MORE views

[@thecypher7607]

"Only idiots die on Dine." A phrase I heard from a boss rank employee once but somehow made it a rule.

[@DzGhostzz]

This is so well made Everything looks perfect

[@bakri7194]

Wow this deserves more views!

[@eliasazevedo8608]

The choice of the angles was a cinema level bro just like the lighting, congrats about your work, I'm stunned, a thing that can be worked on is timing of the scenes, amazing job, what a talent

[@PurpleBan]

Wow, I really appreciate that so much. It means a lot that my first film-like animation is considered cinematic. I usually just use what feels right to get good angles and shots, and I guess it works!

[@sebiewebie]

Absolutely perfect. Only feedback u can give is the voice acting, but i found the story AMAZING

[@cp4thelegend914]

Just came here from your reddit post, amazing job! You’ve got real talent

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks so much, I really do appreciate it

[@xycrypt]

There were so many moments where I would rewind and watch over certain parts because they were so satisfying. The elegance in the grabbing of the stop sign at 2:07 comes to mind. There was so much tension towards the end, and the storytelling was simply brilliant. Bravo!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the support

[@hitchie]

This was really good and i really liked it. I hope to see more! Maybe butler makes an appearance?

[@AnOnex-]

subscribing and liking. actually amazing!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks a lot!

[@milessemison4054]

This is amazing! I love the sound design and the character models. Keep up the good work! It would be great to see more Lethal Company animations from you :)

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks! I feel like people often disregard the effort put into the sound design of stuff. Also, just so you know, I did not model the characters, but I did model everything else. And since the positive reception, I am thinking about making more of these. It would take quite a while though.

[@Blubbpaule]

I mean heavily inspires is still an understatement. It's literally the same story, same pacing, same music just with a different ending.

[@PurpleBan]

I suppose. It's just that I saw that animation, and I loved it so much that I wanted to make something like that for my first animation. It is different in some ways, both the employees die in different ways, the orange one wasn't even there when the whole Nutcracker scene happened. And everything past the argument is new. The creator of that original animation (TheBayG) has commented on this video, giving his thoughts.

[@liampowered1820]

@@PurpleBan Where did he comment?

[@PurpleBan]

@liampowered1820 I can't really show you, but scroll and you'll find it. His profile picture is yellow, and his handle is @therBAYG

[@loud3663]

we need more lethal company animations

[@clebb13]

1:44 Dolly zoom! my favorite camera trick.

[@PurpleBan]

Yes! I love using it to show that something bad has / is thought to have happened. It does great in giving a feel of unease.

[@Ressyuchiha]

nice! crazy good animations

[@MarieP409]

The feels man

[@ragegaze3482]

Incredible animation and story telling. If lethal company was real life, it probably would be like this, nothing funny about it if there was real stakes. Never thought about it before like that.

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks a lot, that's really what I was going for. The situations you get into in the game would just be absolutely harrowing in real life. I shall aim for more of this in future animations.

[@worksmagic89]

You did a very good job with this. I enjoyed it.

[@CoconutRTS]

Ayo nice edit man

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks dude

[@nivarti7803]

This is a masterpiece, its amazing and cinematic

[@2tonpotato]

Love the visuals and storytelling. Keep it up!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks!

[@jasonkearney7359]

This was an absolutely amazing short animated film! I felt genuine emotion while watching this. my expectations were low, but you really blew me out of the park with this video. I really like the music, paired with the character's emotions, it felt relatable, it felt like I was watching something that felt real, like a scenario I could see happening in a similar situation in real life... almost. You got some real talent, all you got to do now is keep going, keep making, and most importantly, keep enjoying the journey my man.

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks for the in-depth comment and all your compliments! I love that this really made you feel how I wanted it to! I'll make more in the future and try to live up to this one, I'm just gonna take a small break before that though, as I spent 2 and a half months non-stop working on this.

[@warrencarlotta]

the amount of detail is crazy good job :D

[@VoidAndSinox]

It's just wonderful! Keep releasing similar videos!

[@PurpleBan]

I probably will, but not any time soon. This took wayy too long.

[@Im_CommanderBlackout]

Nice touch to add Clair De Lune. Makes me get V2 flashbacks.

[@anggermiftahuddin1858]

A really great video! Love the detail 4:38 Pretty sure you can make another one with another story, gj!

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks! I am planning on making another at some point, just taking a little break at the moment though.

[@skitterszz]

imagine if the butler came in

[@hal_s8745]

That's awesome, keep up the good work pal!

[@L3D_Guy]

Damn brodie this is epic! And the sadness i felt once he stepped on that landmine, guessing he felt bad about his friend in the end😢. Well done mate!🙌🏻

[@PurpleBan]

A mixture of feeling bad about his 'friend' (more like coworker), and also the fact that he's not going to meet the quota.

[@alteregosocial]

keep going man you’re very talented

[@someone-o9d3k]

[@c.h.u.b]

yo, as someone who doesnt feel empathy towards fictional media, i cant lie and say i felt 'bad' about the ending, but this film is still amazing man. i have played so much of this game and all i can say is great work.

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

[@c.h.u.b]

@@PurpleBan I respect the hours of hard work you put into this ♥️

[@GrimCreeper349]

Cool af but in the opening when they walked in it should’ve IMMEDIATELY changed to Benny Hill

[@unwono]

Some great stuff dude keep it up. Making art is a long process but I don't think there is anything more rewarding then putting yourself out there with ART. Great work

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks! And yeah, there's hardly anything better than getting such a positive reception to something I put so much effort into.

that was actually very well done i will even go as far as to say some aspects were better than mine and you made changes that actually added something and weren't there to just, differentiate from mine? i guess? also thank you for making my nutcracker actually look good when rendered

[@PurpleBan]

Thanks so much It means a lot coming from the person who made the animation that inspired this, especially since this is my first proper animation. I loved your animation and wanted to make something in the same vein for my first. Also your nutcracker model is fire btw

my ears dude (good animation btw)

Yeah I think I made the ringing sound a bit too loud

this is just the theBAYG animation for the nutcracker at the end of his realistic nutcracker video or at least heavily inspired by it

hmu for voice acting I have been a va for many projects and I’d love to take part in a lethal series

[@PurpleBan]

Sounds good! If or when I decide to make another animation, Ill hit you up. If you dont mind, do you have any video/audio of your past work?

[@tripplec6798]

I still can't get over how all the monsters in Lethal Company are creatures and beast, a fleet of giant rouge robots that can decimate the landscape, haunted stuff like ghost and possession. And then you got the nutcracker coming at you with a feking shotgun. 1:42 that right there is what really makes the nutcracker terrifying. When you are going with somebody else or a group and all you hear in the distance is: maybe a panicked yell, gunshots, and then the squeaking of boots as it comes for you next.
