this is smthn I speedran in 4 days last month for a final project asdfghjk sorry if the sound effects are kinda goofy, first time trying it on my own with a longer video💀I got a perfect score anyway so yippee

cool

[@ReaganArtNStuff]

Good Job! :D ✨

Amazing

You speedran this? I can’t even tell! I can see why you got a perfect score. Good for you!

[@SaveCatsAndStopRacism]

WOW

[@chaihill1837]

The slow start of “Ship in a bottle” as she approaches the coat is great storytelling, and an awesome lead-up to that video. Like she doesn’t know why, but she recognizes it and the memories start slowly coming back.

[@ianlee8158]

I have noticed that too on my first reaction

[@fomxparanuwu]

Im waiting for her to try and figure out who the people in her past were

[@siren7138]

I’m so happy someone else noticed edit: I want to add it is such a small hid detail and yet the biggest hit I love that

On one hand, I she wanted to she could do anything the would do with a sharp object using only her claws and teeth. On the other hand, you are absolutely right

​@@namantherockstar I didn't think I'd find a bot on this kind of video but oh well

[@R4yj4ck]

I was really worried this was going to be a "losing her memories and humanity as more and more time passed" type video, it was a relief to see her go back to her small form.

[@presentexchange5108]

I meannnn at this point she had no memory of it when she was “reborn” or something, and only regained it after ship in a bottle

[@harrisonleon577]

Nah the swords just realy big

[@NovaKatYT]

I thought so to at first but its nice to see that she still has her humanity

[@Anonagon]

Gotta love how hard "show don't tell" is used here. Absolutely legendary as always.

[@0EnterTheDarkside0]

Great video! The idea that Mariza seems to have forgotten her memories from is actually much scarier then the transformation itself. The slow start to Ship in a Bottle tied it all together beautifully!

[@ronaldlennier86]

I agree, more then the whole turning into a sea monster thing, the idea of something entirely out of your control slowly eating away at everything that makes you, well you until everything that makes up who you are is just wiped away entirely, is something I find horrific and tragic It's brilliant

[@tumblingartist]

Ikr! The concept of losing your identity is terrifying, and it’s almost a relief when Mariza sees the coat and seems to recognize it

[@ronaldlennier86]

@@tumblingartist I do hope that there is at least some chance for Mariza to get her memories back but I doubt it

[@0EnterTheDarkside0]

@@ronaldlennier86 I think Ship in a Bottle animatic was her getting some of her memories back, which I'm really happy about!

PIRATE OC CONTENT LETSGOOO ✨️ i really like how this all comes together with ship in a bottle at the end! Really wasnt expecting for Mariza to find her old captain's coat!! Animation is so fluid it almost feel like you're underwater too, and very clever at how all the pieces come together :DD

[@akswordking]

"You can run from your past, but you can't run from your memories." Feels like an apt line for this. I love the physical change they did going from a more primal denizen of the abyss to a more human-like one after seeing the ship. I also loved the small emotions displayed through the subtle facial changes!

[@onceinaknifetime]

THE LORE GUYS THE LOOOOOORE ok but seriously, the facial expressions, the movements, the animated-but-not-quite-animated feel of it, this is amazing. The character designs and the art are incredible. I’ve been waiting for an update for this story to drop on KZbin for a while now (I don’t have access to your other socials) and this is legitimately so good.

[@joelt7731]

THE LORE

[@cheezball9943]

Omg i love the storytelling here of how this carries on straight to Ship in a Bottle and Mariza is starting to remember her old life~

[@Lari_crescent_moon]

I love how it connects right into your ship in the bottle animatic (when she finds the captain’s coat)

[@letsgogaming8112]

Everyone's already praising the animation itself, but I want to take a moment to acknowledge the sound design and the use of Subnautica's soundtrack in the background. Good stuff!

[@lavabiscuits]

I know, it's such great use of ambience.

[@jaidynhalling2162]

[@live4life551]

I've seen you're work on tumblr alongside KZbin and between your artstyle and your worldbuilding I HAVE to say if you made this story into a webcomic I guarantee you it WILL go FAR!!

[@CallMeDoc_]

YES PLEASE YOU DISASTER TRIO A WEBCOMIC WOULD BE SO COOL

[@Krowno_]

The amount of hype I felt when I realized that this is a Ship in a Bottle prequel was CRAZY. This whole piece is so cool!! The fluidity in the animation, even in animatic form, is incredibly well done, and the "show, don't tell" aspect of the story is very well executed. Awesome work as always!!

[@PurpleHoodie666]

Oh mY GOD, when “Ship in a bottle” started to play my heart skipped a few bits! That’s such a cool idea! The art was so good, and with such an amazing vibe as well. Your each new video amaze me every time and brings me so much joy

[@ChangeComics]

The fact that this is animation is, in a story sense, the opening of the Ship In A Bottle animatic is insane! Great job!

[@ronaldlennier86]

The animation is great as always but I must draw attention to the sound work here, it's incredibly atmospheric! I love how a slowed version of ship in a bottle plays as mariza approaches her old coat!

[@lavabiscuits]

I liked the angelic choir in the background. It comes from the videogame: Subnautica.

[@lavabiscuits]

Oh, and the ringing bells come from subnautica.

[@TheDaxter11]

0:39 Run bitch! *_Ruuuuuun!_* This was absolutely amazing. The lack of music and just simple ambiance was great, and it slowly picking up the guitar strums of Ship in a Bottle towards the end as she approached the coat was amazing.

[@emmakgb]

HE DOESN’T HAVE LEGS

[@LittleGoldRose]

I absolutely adore your work! I can’t stop watching your Ship in a Bottle Animatic, it’s so good. I hope I can start creating animatics like this in the not too far future for my own story. Keep up the Amazing Work hun! 💛😻💛

[@seanmcvicker900]

When "Ship in a bottle" started to play at the end I started to get chills. I loved the atmosphere and tone it sets. Especially if you watch the other video of the same title as the song. The OC video Ship in a Bottle is one of my favorite OC videos ever and I love that we get more story for the character. This was such a good intro for that video.

[@Tid-bit]

It looks great especially for four days

[@Jolly_CHEESE]

Your Animations Are Still Beautiful As Always😔💖

[@TheScarlettRose]

Hearing the animatic start to play sent a chill down my back.

[@danielgutierrezfernandez9028]

Went back to see ship in a bottle after this cause both the song and the animatic really nailed it. Hope we see the story keep going someday

IT LOOKS SO GOOD!!!!!!!! you are so amazing with animation! and mariza approaching the coat with ship in a bottle slowed down playing makes for an amazing prolouge/prequel/build up!!!!

Love the silent storytelling. The Subnautica music is perfectly used here as well.

Alien Passageways, followed by Original Inhabitants or Shadow of the Reefbacks, they're really similar, and ending with the ambience for the interior of Architect bases, can't find the name for the life of me.

Yo, this is awesome! Love the way the fish move, even at such a low frame rate.

I KNEW SOMEONE WOULD SAY THIS BAHAHAHAHAHAH

[@runic_raptor]

Ooh, this one is really good for a lot of subtle reasons. As always, the limited use of color really makes your characters pop - especially against the dark background here. The motion and implicated of motion is really well utilized. And the sound design is great! Ominous where it neats to be and then of course the hint of song at the end bringing us back to the (first?) Ship in a Bottle animatic. It's like weirdly nostalgic. The only weird thing is the sword swishing noises underwater sounds too much like air, but whatever. It's phenomenal otherwise

Ah amazing! The recall at the end was fantastic! The silence of the deep sea leading back the the beginning of Ship in a bottle, it gave me chills!

[@heiwaii847]

The slow start to the "Ship in a Bottle" animatic had me so hyped up for no reason that I immediately clicked that video before the music had a chance to fade so I could get the emotional payoff of it you have no idea. Every time I hear that song my brain goes back to that video and I just recently ran across it again, then may or may not have binged all the new stuff I missed (since KZbin doesn't always recommend less frequent uploads)
