Once Upon A December | OC Animatic

A bit of a "trailer" to point at whenever someone asks about my oc project that I'm slowly developing...
I'm a bit tight on money, so if you enjoyed I'd really appreciate it if you head over to join my Patreon where I share wips/pieces of these OCs (I'll also be explaining a good chunk of the animatic over there):

Soooo, here's a quick and not so thorough description of the animatic. I'll be careful not to delve into too much for fear of spoilers, and to have a little something saved for my Patreon. (Also, for those new to me and my story, this is a fantasy story centered on a tale of a man who lived in a land of endless rain. There, he struggles in a community of impoverished people, refugees stranded by a government that had taken them in and taken advantage of their naïveté.) The man reading the book is Rashid, clearly someone who had some sort of connection with Kareem, the subject of this animatic. The animatic opens with him, as does the tale of the book within this video, and ends with him as well (but with one other person). Rashid's life was pretty much in a constant flow of turmoil before he met Kareem, as you caught a hint of that when the animatic delved into Kareem's story. This is where the extent of Rashid's relevance to this animatic ends, and where Kareem's tale begins to unfurl. This is a sneak peak of sorts, a hint at what's to be written in the story I'm developing. Kareem's story proceeds to jump back and forth between three phases of his life: his teenage years, his fresh adulthood years, and his prime. Each has its own stories and struggles, and none are particularly happy periods in his life. There was one other he shared an affinity with, and this one person is someone he was forced to separate with despite his own desires. This person is named Arham, and through Kareem's own efforts, found a way to bring Rashid and Arham together after he failed to reunite with him. And what happened to Kareem? That's a mystery for now

This is wonderful. I love the compositions, transitions, cut aways and how it fits the song. Also the characters are so expressive. I really like the starry sky at the end too.

Thank you! I'm relieved to hear you liked it, and especially the elements of the animatic I tried to focus on in order to let the emotions shine through. It was definitely a selfish passion project of sorts, so I'm always happy to hear others enjoyed it outside of me haha
