[SFM] L4D2 - The Sacrifice #1 - Docks

A brand new series has been in the making for about 3 and a half months, an inspiration from Beejie Beans original sfm animations on the Dead Center and the Passing campaigns... ever since many individuals started their own animations, so did I.
Hereby I present to you, the Sacrifice campaign, which will be the current main project I will be working on this entire year. After Episode 2 and Episode 3, I am planning different cool sfm animations.
Hope you'll like it! :)

[@supersnow17]

It's sad Beejie never completed her L4D2 SFM series. I'm glad someone else is making something in the same vein.

Whatever happened to her by the way? Beejie I mean.

[@monochromebnws7175]

@@enlightenmentdoesntcomeeas5337 I heard, she was mentally unstable, and drained to continue further the series. Since, sfms are really too long to do, and takes so many time of her life. A lot of people are actually asking her too about continuing the series, so then she decided to probably stop, and rest as long as she wants. Maybe there will be time she can continue it, and upload a new one. I hope she’s okay. :(

[@punprincess3214]

It's nice to see someone carrying Beejies torch since she's unable to continue carrying it herself. if you plan to make both L4D 1 and 2 take the necessary breaks in between to avoid burnouts or stress, Beejie got pushed to her limit with trying to please everyone so please prioritize your own mental wellbeing over this series. I can't wait to see how this turns out!

[@kabeam5643]

It's truly sad Beejie wasn't able to finish it though, mental burnout can be a train wreck to yourself. At least people like this can try and extend the saga.

[@enlightenmentdoesntcomeeas5337]

Whatever happened to Beejie by the way?

[@punprincess3214]

@@enlightenmentdoesntcomeeas5337 She completely burnt herself out working on the animations, she got so worried about pleasing people that she neglected her own mental health and had a breakdown, she said she can't even look at an animation program without having a panic attack. She hasn't returned to the series since then. It's quite sad

[@GeorgeMartinus]

@@punprincess3214 I thought she has lost her motivation to continue the series. Maybe if someone try to create Patreon account for her, I bet there will be many L4D fans join the community and her sweat will be paid off.

The way you made the characters and relationships fleshed out with your amazing animation is just..PEFRECTO! GREAT JOB!

[@itdobelikedattho8112]

Almost valve quality

[@icarus3874]

yeah well he basically followed the path that Sacrifice is supposed to be played. You'll hear those voice lines yourself when you play it btw. So of course everything is fit, because Valve just made it entirely and this channel just animated the play of this map

[@alialatrach9788]

Glad to see something like this finallly exit! It's been so long since we had a L4D2 animation telling the actual story of each campaign with funny dialogues between the 4 survivors, I am hoping that someone can finish the rest of L4D2's Edit: L4D2 survivors had each one do what he thinks is right yet work together, but here for the original survivors, they all look at Bill as their leader and follow him, this is great and this animation nailed it with the different and unique personality of each one.

[@TheFoshaMan]

LET'S GOOOOOOOO!!!!! Edit: After watching the whole thing I think i can speak for everyone and say... we need more, good job dude

[@detectivehan5717]

Bill's last words: "Damnit, Zoey. We trusted CEDA, We trusted the military and they left us to die. You think they'll ever let us back in? We're on our own kid and it's high time you started acting like it."

[@thecoooool]

Crazy to think all of these voice lines are in the game telling such a detailed story, don't even recognize most of them. Man this game is amazing

[@fawful7457]

Like how Zoey seems to be the focal character of the thumbnail as she takes Bill's place after his sacrifice.

[@elfascisto6549]

She didn't take his place, she just adopted his mindset. Besides, she's what? 19? I don't see how she could be fit to lead the group given how she displayed no leadership skills throughout the campaigns (and you know, her filename is "teen angst")

[@galacticfirefly6060]

@@elfascisto6549 Zoey might be the youngest, but i think she's the Smartest, But i do agree, She'll have to keep Francis and Louis in line now because of their constant bickering and argueing. In the Passing, Louis shown the most leadership capabilities, while Zoey felt Distant and short, Francis... well if he acts like he is to other survivor groups, i won't be surprised that they develop hostility. Even if they make it to their 'island Paradise' and avoid a 'Dawn of the Dead' type of Ending. I doubt Zoey wanna stay around long.

[@ninjaman3418ify]

3:04 is so well done. In a piece of dialogue, Zoey tells Bill that she's not ready to give up on everything yet, and I can see her facial expression showing that she's going through internal strife. I like to think that she knows what needs to be done, that there is no hope for the military to take care of them and they need to save themselves, but she still see's good in the world despite the fact they've been Left 4 Dead (pun intended) at every turn. She wants to believe that she can help out others, because that is her personality. She's always been the most caring individual out of the whole group, showing the most concern and worry to her comrades (hell, family at this point) when they're hurt, even while being the youngest. The dialogue in the Sacrifice was so well done and it's still a main reason why I still play and enjoy l4d to this day after all these years. Zoey's struggling with an internal conflict between the survival of her group to the survival of the world that remains. Character development at it's finest. Glad to also see an SFM animation that's fluid and not too choppy. Looking forward to what comes next, and I hope you enjoy making these as much as we love watching and analyzing them.

[@Leadhead]

Love it. I've always wanted to see both this, and movie interpretations matches played on the more story driven TF2 maps, like Swiftwater

[@The_asdfghjkl]

At the begining at the animation. I've literally never heard of you, but seing that people have an interest in doing things like this is really exciting. I've been working on a similar project for months except for the entire of the game instead of just 1 or 2 campaigns) and..I don't know it's just really cool to see multiple people's interpretation of the same thing. I'll leave feedback after I finish.

This is like an ABSOLUTELY great job. The dialogue about Bill leaving the Doctor and the two Military Guys from the comics and how she doesn't agree with it just shows off her nature. She CARES for the others, even if they are assholes at their finest.

[@ErenYeager-zf3td]

I love how the Tank was about to do the same shit he did in the L4D1 intro: He chucks a common at Francis and was about to smash him with his 2 fists

[@EdwarPlayYT]

Finally KZbin recommends me something interesting, any SFM animation of Left 4 Dead 2 is welcome, that was great.

[@wolfcl0ck]

Not bad. It's nice that Left 4 Dead itself has so many lines of dialogue for just about every situation that the characters encounter throughout the game, helps make fluid conversation in animations a lot easier. As for the animation itself, I'd suggest trying for a new lighting solution outside of what the game provides on its own. Darker darks and lighter lights make for better lighting. Rim lighting on characters would certainly help emphasize this. In addition, a more liberal use of depth of field could be nice.

[@FlowMotionStories]

At least I have to make sure the light won't be too artificial

[@The_asdfghjkl]

This was AMAZING. I love the way you lit all the scenes. And that tank scene at the end was pue GOLD. Honestly blown away that you made this in 3 months. Amazing job! Can't wait to see the next one.

It's tragic to remember Zoey was mad at Bill then he died sacrificing himself for them also at the Passing at L4D2 even if they wanna go with Coach, Ellis, Roch, and Nick, they can't cause they're infected with no signs of turning into zombies.
