Goodness! This has been SUCH a journey! Trying to do a full animatic whilst studying full time is really not easy!
But man I enjoyed Limited Life so much I had to try and do it justice! Cheers to another amazing season!
Thanks for joining me on this long journey and sticking it out with me until we reached the final product... which is this... so uh... hope it was worth the wait :)
If you're reading this before the premiere then make sure you head on over to / misskatyrow for the animatic afterparty we always do after an animatic has premiered :)
Or if you're here after the premiere, you can still head on over to Twitch to check out the art and gaming we do there. A lot of animatic work is done on streams :D

Hello Scott! Here before this comment blows up ^^

[@Cyantist12]

My favorite part is how at 3:26 we go through all of skizz's affirmations and the exact time stamps of each one before we see the man himself die. Skizz is my favorite and the brilliance behind that section is unreal.

[@FightClub5612]

This, and I also love how well captured their reactions are to Skizz being Skizz. Jimmy in particular. I could hear him hollering 'I'm in therapy!' And Pearl's smile in her frame. So great.

[@WizardOfDocs]

OH that's what that was that's why that's the only part with timestamps. That's Skizz's clock.

[@TellyKNetic]

I didn't realize at first that those were the affirmation scenes. I thought it was just random bits to show the passage of time. Nice catch!

@@WizardOfDocs As much as my Watcher brainrot wants me to think they pushed him, tripping over his own shoelace is better on so many levels.

[@Voidbear_FNaF_and_Undertale]

@@ruemistressofyeets TBH I rather think that the Watchers gave him a second chance, as Jimmy was Boogey killed so technically should've already been dead when he tripped. I imagine it be like. "We give him another chance?" "Yeah, whatev- he just tripped and fell off of skynet." "This man's luck is beyond even our comprehension"

[@whosasking8839]

"And I will fight for you, I will die for you" Say the lyrics as Impulse stands alone against Scott and Martyn, flanked by the ghosts of TIES, Skizz's words flashing through his head, "TIES gets to the final three." He's ready to go down swinging. Literally. Scott's sense of honor has given him a sliver of hope. Little do either of them know, Martyn has other plans. CANNOT WAIT!

I love finding the small details in this anamatic, something I've seen no one point out is how at 1:29 Cleo has her arm out to protect scar which is such a mom thing to do 😢

[@MazzyGG]

[@ohsugarsnapsx]

YES that’s literally one of my favorite things! reminds me of my mom when she has to brake hard in the car, im a grown adult and she still does that haha

[@Ravenlikesbooks]

Update after watching this many many times: I know it probably wasn’t entirely meant to line up this way, but how the lyrics say "i would fight for you" as Gem and Lizzie are shown to be puppeting the bodies is really cool. They came onto the server solely to spend the session fighting on behalf of their friends. And also, the facial expressions here?? The bodies are glaring at each other with the hatred Pearl and Cleo share for each other, but Lizzie and Gem are both glancing back at each other sadly. I would fight for you, i am fighting a war for you to have a break, but it’s still sad. Im sorry i have to fight you, my friend, but you know that we have to fight for them. Kinda alluding to what some people have pointed out on tumblr, the two of them come in blind in the midst of the fighting, and since they aren't all caught up already they can see how messed up this seems from an outsider's perspective. Am i reading wayyy too much into like 5 frames? Probably, but you need to know that i am obsessed with Gem and as such instantly latched onto the single part where she is shown

[@cid_of_aro_ace_krebs]

That's a very interesting point and even if it was probably not intended it's so cool! As for being obsessed with gem how could one not be? Gem is great after all 😆

Also Pearl and Lizzie's eyes are purple as Pearl/Lizzie was the Boogeyman that episode.

[@breezle7296]

Love some double meanings :) Just like when it showed the Bad Boys and then Jimmy’s silhouette has the cannery wings, it plays “we were born to die” and same when Skiz was saying goodbye to Tango and Impulse/getting killed by Etho, it played “I will fight for you/ I will die for you.” I love it when the music and images just line up so well!

[@andrejbanovcin6909]

Skizz's affirmations and subsequently his death scene legit made me tear up. Love this. (might update after 10 rewatches haha)

[@CheesyCracks]

It's a small detail, but the frame near the end of Impulse tightening his tie... like he's preparing himself for what might be his final moments, but instead of cowering or arming himself, he's tightening his tie to fight with dignity... AAAH!! SO GOOD!!!

[@ipspeeps2]

I hope Skizz seen this I would've loved to see his reaction. Skizz is one of my favorites and watching his clock counting down with his affirmations made his death more heartbreaking. I'm so glad I seen this can't wait for your next animatic!!!

0:37 I love this moment where Scott becomes the boogieman. This is the first scene of the animatic and is also kind of the true beginning of the series. There is always a short peaceful period at the start of each season but it never lasts. Once there is a boogieman any chance of peace is gone and you can see on Scotts face in the artwork his realization he will be the one to start off the chaos that was always inevitable coming. I could just be reading to much into it but this is so good and so much to be interpreted. Bravo Everen.

[@fuzzyalba5419]

The way you drew Scar at 0:21 because his last words were accusing Grian of stabbing him in the back… genius

[@CruiseD-fc5lh]

the intro is everyone's deaths and how they died in declining order, genius tbh

[@electra310]

This is so gorgeous, I just can't stop watching. I also wanted to say how much I appreciate the fact that you took artistic license and put Skizz in his normal clothes at the end so that his beautiful moment of self-sacrifice didn't happen with him in his underpants like it did in the game. It's just so much more moving this way, lmao!

[@EverenArt]

Oh as soon as I saw the skin change I was like “oh heck no Skizz!” XD I draw the line in keeping my designs accurate to the players skins when Skizz goes all Imp and Skizz on us. Gosh imagine him being topless in that scene? Would’ve looked really wrong :o

[@clairefoley8662]

I can't pick a favorite part of this omg. The song choice??? The hourglass scene with Martyn?? The part with Gem and Lizzie??? The reference to Double Life Ranchers/Boat Boys??? Literally every shot of Cleo???? Fantastic work, I am downloading this into my brain forever

[@poodle9911]

OHHH MY WORD! ABSOLUTE LOVE! Loved the way every event was portrayed so well. The Gem and Lizzie's substitution for Cleo and Pearl was shown so beautifully. Absolute legend Everen! Im so emotional now.

[@TonyStorm21]

What's always crazy about Martyn's betrayal is that he did it to Scott, his ally from day 1, on one hand that's twisted and sick, on the other hand, respect for playing the long game so well.

[@prudentia_8813]

As usual...I LOVE ALL THE REFERENCES TO PREVIOUS SEASONS, THEY'RE ALWAYS SO GOOD 0:55-0:59 I was OBSESSED with the beach confrontation between the ranchers and the boat boys in limited life so I was really looking forward to seeing it in this video and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Seeing the parallels of Etho and Tango being absolutely PISSED and Joel and Jimmy just smiling and laughing was so good. The soulmate strings going from green to red (and I adore the detail of the string fraying) to disappearing was *so* good. Also I know this was probably unintentional but the fact that in the original double life animatic made on this channel, Etho's string was connected to his finger but in this one it's connected at his heart. A reference that he actually grew very fond of Joel? Or just a better way of depicting the soulbounds, once again I am probably just reading too much into it. 1:15-1:20 Not many things stick throughout the life series but Impulses and Bdubs clock tradition sure does (Bdubs held onto that clock for the entire season, it was oddly sweet). The gentle hold and handing of the clock in limited life compared to the rough grasp and the absolutely TORTURED expression on Impulses face in third life broke my heart in a good way 3:17-3:19 THE LYRIC "Feel the years go by" is SO FITTING FOR THIS. Third life was 2 years ago, let that sink in. Flower husbands reference is always appreciated with Jimmy looking absolutely heartbroken (I guess in this case more desperate, he was on like 30 minutes at this point) as he kills Scott which is far from the happy go lucky guy in the flower field that he use to be teammates with. A bit off topic but these frames make me think of that moment where Scott kept saying "say it back" after he told Jimmy "love you" and Jimmy refusing to say it back and just continuing to threaten him. Absolutely beautiful work. Technically not references to specific series and just the life series in general but all the canary imagery throughout (0:29, 1:13, 3:55) was beautifully drawn

[@jigo9380]

JIMMY LOOKED SO SAD AND TORN UP IM LITERALLY CRYING

[@rtg7h]

The "Feel the years go by" with the flower husbands reference actually gave me chill watching. It was so incredibly powerful in so many ways

[@EverenArt]

Honestly didn’t take into consideration that Etho’s soulbound was originally around his finger. It was just to make it more visually obvious, but I LOVE your interpretation of it! I didn’t have space in the animatic to add Scott saying “say it back” but that scene was meant to be reminiscent of that moment as well! Awesome that you picked that up! Thanks for the lovely comment! So happy you liked it :D

[@hopepetal]

I don't usually leave comments on youtube videos but this animatic genuinely moved me so much I absolutely had to. Not much makes me actually cry or tear up but this animatic did. The music choice combined with the stunning visuals were more than enough to bring me to tears, specifically the part where we go through all of Skizz's affirmations before seeing him die. That struck a chord with me- Limited Life Skizz reminds me so much of myself, because when you know you don't have much time left you want to spread as much love as you can. Seeing the way the emotions on Tango and Impulse's faces are drawn and depicted, and the way they hold him... it really does a lot. Thank you for taking the time and effort to create such a beautiful animatic.

[@electra310]

Lots of great info bits here, thanks for doing this! I believe Cleo at 0:41 has just set fire to the mansion and then the next scene is all the Clockers watching it burn. 3:27-3:39 is all of Skizzleman's "affirmation moments" in order with the timestamp of how much time he had left when he did them, ending with his own final death.

[@tornadey018]

Etho pulls a bow on Pearl right before Impulse boogey kills her as an act of defense and warning, wondering why she came up Skynet. Family moment is rather when Bdubs was seen as a traitor the whole episode by both sides of his family Pearl wasn't sick but unable to use a computer I believe, but yeah still didn't make it The time on the screen is the exact timestamp where Skizz did his affirmations with everyone, then showing Tango and Impulse at the end, where he then dies by Etho Impulse blew up Pearl and BigB with an end crystal There isn't a rule saying you can't kill people when they apply rules to something; i.e. Pearl's game was rigged from the start, leading up to both her and BigB dying by Impulse when they're distracted, but I digress.

[@thunderblaze9997]

Neither Cleo or Pearl was sick iirc. Cleo had problems with her computer and Pearl was on a trip to Japan.

[@makakachaput]

This was absolutley epic- there was so much emotion behind 3:39 too and the way you conveyed it through your art almost had me crying a little 😅 The tears in Tango and Impulse's eyes, as well as a slight feeling of what I can only describe as numbness coming from their faces, as they're grabbing onto Skizz's arms The acceptance laced with defeat shown so clearly in Skizz's eyes- The pain and guilt in Etho's- The look of hurt confusion on Grian's face when Jimmy dies, that turns into shock with Joel's death- And especially the flash of lightning reflected in the glasses- something about that genuinley took my breath and hit really hard. You were given maybe 20 or so seconds of a slow part of the song and you did not fail to use it well and portray some of the more dramatic moments of the series. Absolutely phenomenal work

And impulse is just standing there! - 1:53 scar stealing grian lol - 2:05 a lot of people are taking about the evo and watcher symbols but the fact that the sand starts at green and trickles down though yellow and red until it runs out? Chefs kiss - 2:20 I love how you do fire and explosions - 2:27 Joel’s hair is super cool - 2:32 how bdubs is stuck in the middle and how etho doesn’t want him cause he’s loyal to the clockers and the clockers doN’T WANT HIM BECAUSE HES LOYAL TO ETHO AHHH the emotion in their eyes - 3:00 pearl and cleo with Lizzie and gem behind them!! Kinda like how their skins showed pearl and cleo but inside they were really Lizzie and gem. Also how both pearl AND Lizzie have the purple eyes!! - 3:07 Cleo’s body is just OOZING confidence - 3:17 FLASHBACK I AM UNWELL I love how it went from him being red and terrified to happy and sweet - 3:24 just such a small thing but I love how they are trying to shield themselves like one would in real life if they weren’t in Minecraft - 3:27 AHHH THE COUNTDOWN WITH THE TIMER!!?!?!?!! - 3:40 the tears in their eyes?? So good. And that skizz also had tears in his eyes but he looked at peace. - tango and impulse holding his arms as he died? Crying - 3:53 jimmy tripped over his shoelace lol. The canary feathers!!?!??!? - 4:03 I love that grian didn’t move from this to when the nosy neighbors were standing next to him, it’s like he was in shock. Makes you think about how messed up this would be if it wasn’t in Minecraft - 4:11 the clockers reunited in the afterlife so sweet. I love how you drew that with the white outlines - 4:20 THE LOOK IN MARTYNS EYES - 4:28 I actually love how it cut to Scott and impulse dead with martyn standing over them. Also Scott being covered in lava?? Awesome - The stained glass windows of the winners coming in on the beat!!! I honestly can’t express enough how much I love your animatics. I would subscribe more but I only have two accounts :[

[@Potat0Cat]

The frame with Tango surrendering to the explosion when he lost his green status was a very beautiful part of this video. However, so much more of it was amazing, but it's all so good that I don't have the words for it

[@hayheyp]

Tangos tears and Skizz's face always gets me. Tangos hair being a little extra blazing when he's experiencing strong emotions is such a good touch. Love everything about this

[@exquisitepuma7318]

I will never get over how skilled you are, both the art and the thought behind it. Jimmy tripping on his laces was genius, and other moments like that set you apart from everyone else

[@littlelucas553]

I love how each member on the T.I.E.S. has a tie. Great little Easter egg

[@alyxleaf]

I love how incredibly dramatic and cinematic this was when 90% of what i watched was long ladder, skybridge, bread

[@michaelrostanzo7593]

This is inccredible! The beginning going backwards in time showing each final death is crazy, the ability to allow the viewers to understand who each person is just by a shadow is insane talent.

[@ironsamurai8714]

4:40 the stain glass art with each winner is amazing and while your double life one is still my favorite this is a close second

[@blindy4527]

1:07 "we were born to die" as it cuts to jimmy with canary wings. It fits soooo well!!

[@thatonepossum5766]

At this point I look forward to your animatics about as much as I do the series itself. Your art is amazing.

[@LetstalkDwarfism]

What the heck? Oh my gosh that was insane! I am currently feeling so many emotions after watching that, the betrayal, the angst. It killed me when Tango and Impulse just clung onto Skizz as Etho slayed him. The Clockers reuniting after dying, Grian being the last Bad Boy and being adopted by the Nosy Neighbours and that's only to name a few moments off the top of my head. You did such an incredible job! Give yourself such a huge round of applause and a pat on the back, every one of your pieces are absolutely breathtaking! Thank you for sharing your amazing art with the community.

[@SunOfARaven]

I'm so incredibly excited for this!!! Your Double Life animatic is still my favourite life series animatic and I'm sure this one will be incredible!!!

[@HeartsForIcarus]

IM SO EXCITED

[@loganlaliberte4511]

The stained glass at the end is insanely amazing

[@klb4msu]

I will remain here rewatching "Running Up Hill" and "Battlecry" until the next animatic for Sercret Life his been posted. But seriously, I have watched both of those videos, probably once a week since the first time that I saw them. The way you are able to recap the series in such a beautifully consistent way while also making it flow flawlessly to an emotional song takes some true talent!

[@Rilnap]

Im so excited!!

[@jmoon1235]

This is the first one of these that I'm going to be seeing on release and I couldn't be more excited!

[@faultedjam]

This animatic got me into the family Crest and let me say they are CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED if you check them out start with prelude to war then go beneath the brine

[@lorelaiking8190]

I love the life series! I think it’s so funny and everyone is just having a good time! But when I see stuff like this, that funny, happy nature, goes sad and makes it seem like so much more than a bunch of friends just getting together and playing a game! You are so amazing, and this is a real talent. The life series is so interesting already, but this makes it even more extravagant!

[@emberdragon3436]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS PREMIERS WHEN I’M AWAY?!

[@lukaghg3514]

I as well.😔

[@MazzyGG]

3:00 That looks completely like I what I would picture in my head when they were on their accounts! ❤😂

[@_Sirius_art_]

NO AMOUNT OF WORDS OR NUMBERS ARE ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE HOW GOOD THIS IS!! THIS WAS INSANE , I LOVE IT!

[@greninjathefrog]

YOOO I love all the references to previous series!! Ranchers/Boatboys’ heartstrings fading, Impulse’s clock, Jimmy’s old skin and all- holy crap and Skizz’s affirmations 😭

[@a.t.fa.t.f7031]

I can't exactly tell, but I'm pretty sure Martyns eyes are tinted purple at 3:27 to show that he was the boogeyman on that first episode when Skizz went to visit him. If that was the intention, thats so cool! Also great animatic! I've watched it so many times so here, have a comment :P

[@BenDaviesHe3]

Good catch

[@CheeseThePurpleDragon]

I never thought an animation about Minecraft would actually bring me to tears. Honestly, this is one of the best I’ve ever seen. The song choice, the character designs, the backgrounds. It’s all incredibly well done. You’re one of the creators that inspired me to try animation. And honestly, seeing how hard it is, you have more patience than I will ever have. I hope you have a safe and amazing week.

[@wayneerbe]

I have lost count of the times Ive watched this, but everytime I get to Skizz affirmations, my eyes cant help but well up. (Shut up, im not crying, you're crying!)

[@rileyjoyly3950]

I'm a fellow artist and I'm not the best but you inspire me to keep improving! Limited life was amazing so I can't wait to see how you drew it! Your Double life one was incredible so I'm sure this one will be amazing as well :D

[@holssvsp]

JIM OFFICIALLY WATCHED IT!!

[@numget1111]

i hate how this made me cry so much, because in some parts of any of the series (but especially this one) it's just so silly but then when you think of it in survival terms it's actually really depressing sometimes. the end where jimmy and joel died fucked me up 💀

[@DioritePoodle]

the "I would die for you" at Skizz's sacrifice got me aagh

[@Leezz_I]

I'm not someone who comment alot on videos but this one deserves a loooong one. My expectations were high but you still managed to shock me. Limited life was epic but you've made it appear 100 times more epic than it was. Here is some bits I loved extra much: First! This song fits extremly well! Great song choice. 0:07: The going back in time showing everyones deaths in backwards order is a great way to start it! 0:54: The double life flashback oh my :0 1:14: I'm a big fan of flashbacks like this and you've done it very well! 1:27: Scar is looking so sad and scared and Cleo trying to protect him D: I love it 1:52: Okay this frame is so funny XD 2:13: This feels like a movie I've seen 2:52: I absolutely LOVE the way you drew the ravager! I've never seen anyone draw a ravager before so this is really cool 2:58: I love to way you portrayed the Cleo & Gem and Pearl & Lizzie swap 3:18: I heard that you spent alot of time on this flashback and I can see that! It was worth it, I love it so much! This whole frame is beautiful. 3:26: Awww I love that you added Skizz's compliments. 3:39: Right before the saddest scene in the whole animatic... I'm may cry. Together with the "I will fight for you, I will die for you" too ahhh D: Why must you you artists hurt me?? /lh (I say as an artist lol) 3:53: So that's why he fell? Yeah that's canon now. Fly high canary :( 4:10: Family reunion!! 4:19: Amazingly drawn end scene! Martyn looks so evil and that first picture >:) 4:34: Yess I'm so happy you added those into the animatic! I love them :D I tried to keep this not to long... I failed. Sorry. Also sorry about my english, it's not perfect and I don't have autocorrect on my computer. I think thats all I wanted to say. It's amazing. I will rewatch it many times. Goodbye, hope whoever reads this have a great day!

[@EverenArt]

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed comment! I’m so happy you enjoyed it!

[@Leezz_I]

@@EverenArt No worries! I always enjoy your animatics :D

[@Leezz_I]

Oh my word I just realized the pink/purple eyes because Pearl/Lizzie was boogeyman at 2:59

[@The_Grin_Reaper_]

Hehehe hello

[@Leezz_I]

@@The_Grin_Reaper_ Hehe you found it xD

[@hiya7233]

I’ve watched this so many times across various accounts and it’s just so good every time! You’ve almost hit 100k views as well!!

[@starstruck_gay]

I love how when jimmy dies in the animation, Joel and Grian looked sad but in reality they were laughing their heads off 😂

[@llyraa]

3:19 has that gorgeous background that exists for less than a second :,)

[@thunderblaze9997]

This was amazing! I came here from Jimmy’s reaction video, and I can’t wait to see Martyn’s reaction that inevitably follows! My favorite part was Skizz punching Bdubs in the face during their duel!

[@glennkenobi]

The details at 0:51 is amazing where the 2 swords go through the clock and skiz because he was boogied twice is just insane you should be proud of yourself ❤

[@Mega-Prime]

I absolutely can't wait for the secret life animatic that will slap SO HARD

[@emmamerlini4700]

This animatic is just wow 🤩, like I have no words right now! Amazing work!

[@rosesaysmeow8358]

OH MY GOODNESS, I'M SO EXCITED!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!!!!!!!

[@sisi7304]

this is so good omg!! the mosaic stained glass at the end is especially touching, as well as Skizz affirmations, all the details and colors are gorgeous, and Martyn's breathing is just perfect, as is the clock going backwards in the beginning, I love this so much!!

[@lachlanvitler2141]

dangggg i cant wait to watch this, seeing how awesome the last one was!

[@Roeskva_theFox]

2:04 that detail with the hourglass going from green to red is absoloutely amazing. Super nice detail

[@daniodle]

I made very inhuman voices just now seeing this. Everyone is looking at me funny. Very excited

[@frostsystem]

the shots of all the affirmations, leading up to Skizz's final moments, sent me into tears. You did so well capturing all the memories.

[@bvidgaming3778]

I'VE WATCHED THIS ANIMATION SOOO MANY TIMES.

[@RedisFun2]

A M A Z I N G !!! The Limited Life series was so chaotic, and hilarious at the time. Watching all of thr POVs, I laughed so much! Impulse and Skizz bickering and Tango just giggling, his crooked Tower. The absent father not being so absent, the cringe level of the "family" dynamic! AFK Grian..... So many...... Then, there's @Mcskizzelman ..... Bringing that occasional somber realism, yet focusing on making every minute count & his affermations. Now, a complete dichotomy.... I'm crying my eyes out.... So much, the reunited family, Skizz's sacrifice with a gentle smile.... The gentleness of BigB and his frogs. Just so much.

[@evivanderzouwen3030]

AMAZING!!! I love your animatics so much!! Edit: Each time I rewatch it, I discover new hidden details! I love how much emotion you’re able to convey with your art and the shift at 4:06 gives me chills. I hope the Life Series continues!!

[@zaydmerhab6167]

Grian said 5 is in the works

[@ble3h_576]

Omg so excited for this been waiting so long, I've loved the sneak peaks, now I don't want to wait until Friday tho😢

[@gardenshed6043]

Omg, took until my 5th watch to notice 3:27 - 3:37 are the times of all Skizz’s affirmations before the end. Ahhhhhhh. I love it. This is truly amazing.

[@hoopa_axolotl9293]

Oh my, this has made this so many more times sadder

[@gardenshed6043]

@@hoopa_axolotl9293 Yeah, I was wondering what the times meant. Then it dawned on me. I’m glad Skizz got a bit of a spotlight in this animatic though. He’s not as often focused on as the others. One of the only others I can think of is Milk Man by Kipp. It’s very good but as a warning not PG.

[@erincumiskey9234]

Oh MY GOD JIMMY TRIPPING ON HIS OWN SHOELACES AND THE GHOSTS OF GEM AND LIZZY WHEN THEY TOOK OVER PEARLS AND CLEO'S BODIES THATS AMAZING Also afk grain thats amazing you did such as good job!

[@noahhatesgeography9940]

OMG at 4:33 😃😃😃😃😃 that is one of the coolest shots Iv’e seen in art ever !!!

[@hibiscusbee]

Everen this is AMAZING! There's so much detail in every single frame- I don't know how you do it! I was totally blown away by Running Up That Hill, I can't believe something even better was possible- and then you do this!! I've seen your community posts talking about how long you spend on each of these frames only to show them for under a second, and I just want to say that absolutely none of that time was wasted. This is INSANE

[@haddy106]

3:39 "I will fight for you" Skizz being comforted by his dear allies in what will prove to be his final moments. 3:46 "I will die for you" Skizz comforting his friends, knowing his end is coming, but wishing his friends the best before they make the most of his time

[@leedesfleurs]

So hype for tomorrow for the release!!

[@riuphane]

2:08 have me some real chills
