Riley's Trauma (Part 1) - An Inside Out 2 Storyboard (ORIGINAL)

[@bats159]

Please note: *NOBODY IS DEAD!!!* Riley and her parents were caught in a car accident, BUT NOBODY IS DEAD!! More will be revealed in part 2, which is right here!! - kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5StXquOlMSHj6s *Edit: 1 MILLION VIEWS ARE YOU KIDDING ME IM GOING TO ACTUALLY CRY

[@ZanyRageous2011]

OHHH OKAY

[@boredreindeer5602]

Okay

[@Sunset_Shimmer_Fan_]

Here goes: Riley and her parents were on their way to their hotel that night on vacation. While driving tho, they crashed into another car, and Riley looses consciousness in the process. The accident was so severe however that it was only a matter of time before Riley would succumb to her injuries after the crash. Meanwhile in her mind, Slimy black scum with the words ‘doom’ starts rising around headquarters. It breaks through the glass, spreading across the floor and reaching to grab the emotions with its sticky black tentacles. This indicates that Riley is running out of time to live, and the only thing the emotions can do is pray for a miracle. All the emotions try to escape, but it was no use. There was no escape from the doom. All the emotions end up swallowed up by the black scum. All hope seemed lost until Anxiety takes Ennui’s phone and plays a familiar song in her head. It plays as Anxiety takes her last breath, and there was nothing left but an empty control room full of black smudge, all while the song continues to play; in the hopes that maybe, just MAYBE it’s not the end for them after all.

Fear being the one responsible for ‘the black-out’ made my heart ache. Usually in traumatic experiences, when you try to recall what happened it’s all just- blank. It’s like a black hole intervening in your memory. It’s such a cool detail

Just the *look* on Fear’s face. Of any of Riley’s emotions he has been the only one to assume the absolute worst. Grabbing that control to spare her the moment of impact might very well have been the last thing any of them will ever do for her. And Fear *gets* that.

I really love how Fear temporarily becomes locked in place like Anxiety was during Riley's panic attack after he unintentionally causes her to completely mentally shut down. The poor guy has always considered it his duty to keep Riley safe from any perceived danger, I can't imagine how he'd feel knowing he not only failed to save her but ended up causing her such extreme psychological damage that it literally consumes everyone including him. This was a very well written animatic and i'm very much looking forward to seeing where this goes 👍👍👍

[@bats159]

Im so honored, thank you! I do like the parallels between him gripping the panel here and being absolutely immovable while Anxiety was more untouchable because she was going that fast in panic~ Hehe, wait for part 2 to see how he feels : ))))) Thank you SO much for the support!

[@Wonderingwatcher]

I don’t think he failed in keeping her safe from perceived danger, I think the blackout was keeping her safe. Similar to how Sadness automatically made the core memories sad, because Riley was sad. What was about to happen was something Riley or anyone else could not deal with in the moment it happened. So the mind locks itself out or disassociates. Keeping the bad thing at a distance in order to maintain mental health. Doing it often would be a major problem, but in situations like THAT, it’s the only thing the mind can do to help. Fear definitely didn’t mean to cause the blackout, but caused it due to the fact that deep DEEP down he felt that it was necessary.

[@redpineapplee700]

I like how the darkness encroaching upon HQ could represent *Dissociatve Amnesia* , a protective mechanism deployed by the _brain_ to help an individual cope with highly traumatic events. When Dissociative Amnesia is brought on by a traumatic experience, your brain blocks out memories of said experience as a means of coping. Often times, the memory or memories of said experience are still within the brain, however, the individual cannot access them.

[@autumn948]

As someone who (I can't ever be certain, but I'm pretty god damn sure) goes through this myself, I'm pretty sure you hit the nail on the head there. It's literally blocking out all the faculties of the brain, and killing off all emotions.

[@TheSlideCell]

It would be cool if they'd represent this by having its corresponding memories shatter or go white or something.

[@Ogfloppa2]

But what about the part where the black goo tries dodging anger? I think it knows that anger can overcome it. I think the black goo can also represent the blackout itself. Since anger (adrenaline) can sometimes overcome blackouts. Also, the emotions here are temporarily being erased, which happens during blackouts. Idk, please tell me if im wrong and where I went wrong

[@evelynbanksmystiqal]

I think I experience this a lot with even the smallest things bc people will ask me like “remember when this bad thing happened? You were there” and I’d be like “no???”

[@mikan1597]

As someone who’s had too many traumatic experience for a lifetime, the idea of fear being stuck in place blacking out those moments of agony was perfectly portrayed. The idea your brain just goes onto shutdown is just scarily accurate. Amazing storyboard, the way you draw all the characters gives them so much personality

[@nicksuazo4377]

This could easily be another sequel where they explore trauma and show off a new emotion - survivor's guilt. Our mc goes through a traumatic experience, the gang tries to navigate through said trauma, and tries to process things, while in the background, a giant shadow breaks into HQ. This slimy, icky, and intrusive being known as guilt makes himself at home. The others are confused and ask who he is, and he coyly states, "Hello, everyone. I am Guilt. And as of today, I'm the one in control."

[@dubstepbee6892]

This is interesting! Fear causing a "black out" response which gets characterized as a black flood is really unique!! The interactions here are really on point. Fear getting stuck on the controls like anxiety does in the movie shows that pure panic and being scared for your life in those few seconds before impact. As someone whos been in a crash it truly is just a few seconds but feels like an eternity. To protect you your brain makes you pass out and also just not remember what just transpired! This is very well made, the art, the storytelling, the dialog, everything! And the right amount of comedy thrown in!

I can imagine trauma as a new “emotion” that appears after a person experiences a very traumatic event in their life; their appearance mimics the event(s) that caused them to show up in the first place. They wouldn’t know why they’re here but they would cause a lot of pain towards the person unintentionally, messing with what emotion is being portrayed; IE joy could be in control and yet the memory reflects anger or fear. Still a cool representation of trauma though! Bravo! ^^

Haw, why thank you ^^ I've drawn comics for quite a while, Im glad to see I apparently can storyboard! I aim to improve and keep working hard moving forward ^^

[@CintagonIsUpset]

I know this is moreso a take on physical + emotional trauma (like accidents where you get injured and it alters how you think during or post-trauma), but god it is so accurate for purely emotional trauma too. Thanks for making this, was this made on paper because if it was, it adds a lot to how trauma affects the mind! Can't wait for part 2 The music also adds a lot to the situation, like holy moly- I felt the way you intended the scene to feel and you did SO GOOD with the expression work. Edit: NOT THE TRIPLEDENT GUM COMMERCIAL, THAT KILLED ME

[@bats159]

You got it spot on! This is like, when you try to remember what exactly happened but everything is black and your emotions are in a frenzy trying to comprehend it since it hurt you so much. Riley is unconscious now, but wait till she wakes up and we see the trauma choose a *form* Thanks so SO much for such kindness and support! I REALLY hope the music doesnt get me a copyright strike ;; Expressions for these kinds of characters can be hard but Im so proud I could do them justice! Thank you once more

[@CintagonIsUpset]

@@bats159 No problem! Hopefully Riley can overcome the trauma at some point. I can attest to the feeling of the emotional frenzy as someone who's experienced VERY emotional trauma and has lost bits and pieces of my life due to it. And once again, no problem! I love seeing people tackle very serious topics with silly little guys because it's SUPER tangible that way

[@theashpanofacharcoalgrill]

This was so amazingly done. Ur artstyle is so wonderfully zany while carrying a lilt of the original artstyle of the movie, it makes it so dynamic and fresh while still feeling nicely familiar to the source material. All the interactions and the scene progression is top notch, insanely in-character for not just the emotions but for the movies themselves. This would totally happen I think, it literally feels like smth one of the directors would make and I had to double check that this wasnt some deleted scene or posted by a person who worked on the movie/s. Also Anxiety would TOTALLY be the last one standing, and I absolutely ADORE how u characterized her, it was humorous but completely in touch with her real personality. I feel like sometimes ppl have a hard time characterizing her and fear as uniquely different from eachother, but u rlly nailed it. I love their interactions in this, I was kinda dreading the possibility this would be ship material of them but I'm glad that wasn't in here. Idk I cannot get over the last minute w her talking to herself, it blew my mind actually, did I already say u hit the fucking nail on the head with her personality??? And I rlly felt her panic while also laughing at her manic smile and her "this is fine (it absolutely is not)" attitude. Thank you so much for this food.

[@bats159]

My heart skipped a beat reading such praise, you have no clue how much this motivated me and made my day. I always try my very best to keep everyone in character and it CAN be very hard since I myself am a sucker for schmaltzy stuff and I *did* originally make this to be indulgent XD But I just love writing the Emotions as a protective family rather than playing with shipping, personally. Thank you so much!!

[@TedsHusband]

I absolutely love this video and how dark this was without making overkills. The entire storyboard looks like something that could actually appear in inside out, and I really love the fact that you made the characters close enough to their canon selfs. That's actually something I wanted to see. An dark fan-made history without those unnecessary violence, curse words and shock value that some people do

[@C_to_the_S]

The manual shut off of the screen is extremely true to real life psychology during an event like this. That was when this video hooked me because I wasn’t expecting such an accurate detail put visually.

[@bats159]

Thank you, yes!! I wanted to depict the idea of blacking out, that darkness that engulfs the mind when recollecting a traumatic event.

[@cottongames4787]

Wow, this some of best fan work I ever seen. Especially when this is hand drawn, amazing ❤. And trauma is sensitive subject to talk about but you made it work here. I can see this being in Inside Out if Disney went a little darker tone with. Keep up the good work. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

On watching this multiple times, it actually makes sense that ennui was the first to be captured by the "trauma goo" since boredom was the last emotion she felt before the crash, anf boredom would be the first thing to leave her mind once the crash happened... While anxiety lasted to the very end. Maybe signifying she was anxious to the very end moment of passing out..
