Evolution of Scratch (Animation)

IT'S FINALLY DONE! This took months so please like and sub because KZbin hates quality over quantity
I've been using Scratch for 8 years, and it is one of my favorite platforms, thank you Scratch for all the amazing memories!!
I started this animation 2 years ago in 2021 (when I was 14), I had animated roughly up to 0:40 and also 1:18 - 1:42.
I recently found a 17 second clip of this animation I rendered out 2 years ago and promptly uploaded it to my channel, shortly afterwards I decided I should continue the project! After a month of hard work it is finally here, I hope you all enjoy!
My scratch account if you’re interested:
scratch.mit.ed...
Discord:
/ discord
The whole video was animated on 0 budget, using free software! The only cost was my time...
I used Blender for all the animation and Hitfilm Express for some compositing and as the video editing software
(EDIT: Apparently Hitfilm Express was discontinued in 2022 and the company that owns it is running it into the ground, I do not reccomend it!
I can't speak for their quality as I've never used either, but I've heard Davinchi Resolve and Kdenlive are both great AND FREE video editing software, use one of those!)
Please do not reupload the full video or clips of the full video on their own, clips of the video are fine if part of a bigger video.
Feel free to create a reaction video if you and/or your audience are connected to Scratch, otherwise, contact me!
ALWAYS give me credit with a link to this video when using the video in your content.

How is this THISS underrated!! It’s actually insane how much effort and love was probably put into this

hello dude

[@Josemordata]

it's not underrated...

[@Theooolone]

The video only had like 40 views or something when this comment was made so yes it was underrated

Cant wait for a longer version when scratch 4.0 ever comes out

[@Saimazahoor-g6l]

yeahhh

[@lukes2030]

Problably, it'll come in 2025, cuz in 2007 Scratch 1.0 was launched, in 2013, 6 years later Scratch 2.0 was launched and in 2019, Scratch 3.0 was launched

[@PastorMikeTDP]

This feels like a scratch trailer already

[@Persvicx]

the part with scratch cat was insane (the whole video)

[@MedAnimations]

THIS IS HECKING WAY TOO GOOD OMGGG

[@TobbyTukaywan]

Love it! The part with the note blocks was really clever.

[@Theooolone]

Thank you! That was the first part I animated after picking the project back up around a month ago, so I had the most inspiration! I am glad you enjoyed!

[@Duck-d3o]

This made me spill the nostalgia tear, amazing video

[@so_far_yt]

Why does this only have about 700 views??? So underrated

[@Top4ickP]

This feels like watching the 10th anniversary of gd

[@Theooolone]

That video was awesome! Id be lying if I didn't say my animation was slightly inspired by it, can't wait for 2.2!

[@SuperJSM]

This video reminded me of how long I've been in this community, and seeing how it evolved over time. This was very cool for more than the nostalgia value, the music the animation and the time you put into this really says it all.

[@clearcodee_]

This gets me so much memories. Scratch was my entire childhood, that's how I became the current me. Thanks for bringing back so much nostalgia

[@KTcomics]

I joined scratch in the 1.4 days. that was back in 2013. those were the good times. I still remember the first big time 'square that jumps around and avoids spikes' platformer that essentially established the entire genre on the website. made by the same guy who wrote "the taco incident". if you know, you know.
