Sonic The Hedgehog POV

Had the pleasure to partner with Sega to create a video to promote the release of Sonic Frontiers' release! Pretty awesome to be able to animate this character, and especially the little Kocos from the game.

[@thevoidmagician6653]

Sonic reaches through the screen, grabbing you by the throat. He unhinges his jaw, which is so large it hits the ground. Screams of torture and souls of the damned can be seen exiting the abyss that is his mouth. One soul whispers in your ear as sonic tightens his grip on your throat, making you begin to lose conciousness. The last thing you heard the soul whisper: "This is your final frontier"

This is AMAZING!! And what the heck, KZbin! I’m subscribed to you Mark and I used to see your videos pop up for me all the time, but not anymore! I always stayed engaged too, so what happened-why does KZbin do that? 💔

[@markcannatarofilms]

Thanks for sharing that and thank you for the kind words! I guess my last few videos haven’t been as engaging for the audience, and I also haven’t been able to post as frequently. None of those factors have really helped me with the algorithm. I’m hoping to get things back on track this year.

[@chrissysworldtour]

@@markcannatarofilms I don’t know exactly what it is, but I haven’t seen any of the videos show up for me since the Peach & Daisy dance. I always make sure to like and had been commenting often. I wasn’t sure what was happening, so I type in your name and saw there were a bunch of videos I hadn’t seen yet. 😫 It’s not fair to creators that we actively stay engaged with should go missing from our homepage/recommendations.

[@projectwreckwolf]

[@ASauce.2.0]

Your editing is godlike. Would love to learn how you managed to do this.

[@markcannatarofilms]

Thank you kindly! Well Sega supplied me with game models of Sonic and Giganto, so that was a big help. But it was basically a combination of motion capture I created myself and applied to Sonic, Giganto, and the Kocos. And then I just also spent a bunch of time creating the environment using references from watching gameplay videos, and eventually from buying the game myself. Was a process for sure, and I was ready to give up halfway through but I’m really happy with how it came out.
