Distant Shore//Sanders Sides Animatic[[NOT FOR KIDS]]

[EDIT] for all the ppl asking in the comments, the [[NOT FOR KIDS]] in the title is because of youtube's new policy regarding kid's content, which was vague and included "anything kids might like/enjoy" and i didnt wanna risk a COPPA violation cause this animatic includes a cartoon network song
my ass is sore, my fingers are stiff, and my shoulder feels like it's actively being branded by a hot iron, but i did it! this is the longest animatic ive ever done in the shortest amount of time(two days of nearly non-stop work) and it's 63 frames. i discovered a cool lil glitch effect in sony vegas 15 so that was extremely fun to work with! but it also leads to flashing lights, so fair warning on that.
this is very virgil centric(cause i love him), but the basic premise is the feelings of loneliness and not quite fitting in he might have had before, and after, being accepted into the group. i also think the new steven universe song(and perhaps lapis as a character) really fits him.
if you've read this far you're my favorite kind of person and i love you
song: distant shore- steven universe
programs: firealpaca. paint tool sai, sony vegas pro 15

[@jenngriffith9980]

My god Logan’s hair is on fleek!! I don’t see people give him that style but it is so Logan. Also this is so good!!!!

[@jenngriffith9980]

I’ve seen a couple other people ( including me ) try to draw Logan’s hair like that but you’ve pulling it off the best. You are one of the animators on KZbin. Well done.

[@codaclownery]

Hetalia? more like Bork: Ragnorok I'm confused. Do you like Hetalia ooor...?

[@jenngriffith9980]

The Tricycle Of Thought yeah I love hetalia. It’s most of the fanfiction I read and mmds I watch, and I love CallMeKevin (where the :more like Bork Ragnorok came from)

[@codaclownery]

Hetalia? more like Bork: Ragnorok Oh! Same, my dude! But I've never heard of CallMeKevin, is he a youtuber?

[@jenngriffith9980]

The Tricycle Of Thought yeah one of the best. He’s best known for his Harry Potter videos

[@unsweetsweets]

1:32 at first when I saw the hands I was like “yay, someone is helping him!” But then I saw the gloves and I was like “GET YOUR DISHWASHING GLOVE FILTHY HANDS AWAY FROM HIM” I need to calm down 😂😂😂 ( but honestly, this is amazing, you deserve a sub )

I literally just got obsessed over this fantastic song...and you just made it even BETTER!! And may I just compliment the fascinating detail of Virgil's sudden breakdown? LIKE I'M NOT SURE IF THOSE ARE DECEIT'S GLOVES BUT LIKE WHOA WHATTT?!!? Thank you for such a great visual you have presented us :)

[@grizzlytay]

Nice little detail keeping Thomas in Steven's shirt, especially because he actually owns one.

[@chyniart4598]

Omg I love this so much. This fits Virgil so much and I’m so glad this got a happy ending ;w; YOU’RE NEVER ALONE VIRGIL.

[@wishjordanne2235]

I love how Steven’s red shirt has become apart of Thomas’ brand. I think it’s good that Steven got a new shirt cause the red one belongs to the Fanders now xD Edit: Also Lapis: “I’m still terrified that the diamonds will come back.” Virgil: “I’m still terrified that *the others* will come back.” BOOM.

[@ellahatton9842]

This is amazing! The art is incredible! Also amazing choice of song it fits Virgil so well, and in 2 days?! That's perseverance for you! 💜💜

[@amymarsh7142]

How DARE YOU MAKE ME SOB YOU WONDERFUL AND TALENTED HUMAN BEING-

[@monikakavaliunaite8017]

Are yu planning to make a continuation to your last awesome animatic? I really want to read the whole story about Thomas being king and Roman being controled bt Deceit! Everything from the backstories to the final fight! I want to know everything!!! Perhaps you're writting a story? If you are, please post it somewhere! I just love the idea so much, i'm almost crying

[@juliehendricks5357]

I need that tooooooo ahhhh if you do write that's good but if you don't that's okay tooo! :) I know I'm certainly inspired by that story idea maybe some other fanders are too

[@psychogamer5116]

You called

[@crow8579]

I think they are, they have a tumblr and they have some posts about that au on it :)

[@ezraadams8964]

Omg this is beautiful! You are definitely one of my favorite animators!

[@user-sh7em9ec9w]

I love the idea that Virgil has really upscale panic attacks and very strong anxiety disorder, and the reason he is so 'anxiety' to Thomas is because he is scared about those things himself, but doesn't have the physical form to check. I also think that he could have PTSD from an event having to do with deceit, and it triggers that bad memory whenever he sees deceit.

[@coolcraftgaming9078]

This just brings attention to how while Virgil is always talking and happy for mortality and is often outcasted. He has a curse, he can see the worst of something and the only think he can do is see what else could go wrong. That is how anxiety often is. Logan can bring out the logistics of most things. Roman is the creativity and is bringing up the most amazing things. Patton is plain happy about everything. Virgil is trapped in the tight space of where he doesn’t know to see good things or just can’t.

[@mochamoj5572]

I started fangirling saying how cute it was with unintelligible words when they all sat down with him

[@Fionacle]

I never thought I’d scream “GET THOSE GLOVED HANDS AWAY FROM HIM!!!” but here we are

[@wolfkittykat]

[@Computercat1008]

[@piyapikuyi]

[@truffledrawz1355]

How does this fit... *SO WELL!?*

[@1995mayura]

watching this right after watching "ready as i'll ever be", i can't help but have a personal HC of this as like a sequel, with roman wracked with guilt with what happened in that animatic and ahhhhh T-T

[@AwkwardChick-yk1ym]

I really loved this animatic it captured the way lapis felt and Sanders personality exactly you are doing an amazing job and keep it up ❤️

[@doodlecat7783]

Lapis singing is so beautiful

[@JackDelta]

GOD I see to much of myself in anxiety/Virgil! My friends are so much braver than me and also more talkative, while I'm a nervous WRECK that stutters when the teacher asks me a question while I'm off guard. ALSO I MIGHT HAVE DEPRESSION SO THATS JUST *NICE*
