BEHIND THE CURTAIN Now you've hung your hat, and you've seen the writing on the wall Just sit back and relax, we'll tell you all about the fall Of the greatest mind, the ol' director pulling at the strings Who thought the fool was Abel, and the wiser man was Cain It's the Big, Bad, Clinically Mad, the greatest show you've ever seen Yeah, we're Deep, Down, Below the Ground, where only projectors gleam A world of Black and White, a place of magic putting life into your dreams And when the credits roll, we'll be lookin' close to see WHO'S BEHIND THE CURTAIN? "Just a pencil and a dream," a modest proclamation of his goal But no-one saw when it was spinnin' out of control Every soul, every wish, all for one man's bliss 'Cuz all the good intentions don't mean a lick In the pursuit of it, you still wind up down below Well, the pipes they got a-pumpin', the beat of a creator's heart Or that's what he had told them: just a "sacrifice for art" And the walls, they turned to paper, and the ink began to fill our veins Oh, it's easy to rationalize pain to the insane! Oh, it's the Big, Bad, Clinically Mad, the greatest show you've ever seen Yeah, we're Deep, Down, Below the Ground, without a hope to be redeemed The only Man Who Saw the ego twisted behind the scenes Was the one who set the whole production in full swing WHO'S BEHIND THE CURTAIN? What's the use of a hero without a monster to be slain? And is he a man, who makes a deal that others have to pay? "Every note, every take, every drawing you make, Should be a fitting price, it's only you at stake," He made a living hell out of the wishes the maker made Now, it's easy to see how one could be so charmed By the draw of fame and success But you'd think that the price would be cause for alarm When an inky heart is all that's left! Oh! It's the Big, Bad, Clinically Mad, the greatest show you've ever seen Yeah, we're Deep, Down, Below the Ground, where only projectors gleam A world of Black and White, a place of magic putting life into your dreams And when the credits roll, we'll be lookin' close to see Oh, it's the Big, Bad, Clinically Mad, the greatest show you've ever seen... Take a Wild Guess who the hero of the tale is gonna be... A world of Black and White, where it don't matter why you left or where you been... You gotta be a man, and take the credit for co-writing the scene... WHO'S BEHIND THE CURTAIN?

[@riverbecomesastorm375]

I won't lie. My favorite part is Henry's flashback to finishing Bendy's original art design with a smile on his face...before getting a note telling him do it over again. He just looked so proud that the subsequent falling out he had with his boss hit that much harder. It's a sharp contrast to the grumpy gut old man he's been portrayed as in both animatics.

[@FlamingoCutie]

I had a BLAST watching the livestreams of the draft animatic being made, and I can just tell by the trailers that it's going to be more than worth those 2 years.

[@thestarryeyedobserver]

i love how abundantly clear it is that you've taken inspiration from the movements and gestures of older cartoons and animations for Bendy and "Alice's" animation styles. like the slow and suggestive (for lack of better word) movements of "Alice" make me think of Jessica Rabbit, Meg from Hercules, Betty Boop, heck, probably a bunch more I haven't seen. even if i can't name 'em all, it's very obvious what your intentions were with animating "Alice" from start to finish. like, her closeups and singing on each TV screen, all the way to her movements on the big screen. you've probably taken inspiration from other actual female singers/actors from the past as well. for both the movements and singing. ("Alice" in quotation marks cuz that's definitely Susie Alice.) i've also liked how the Welcome Home leitmotif starts (exclusively) playing at 2:49 and reaches a crescendo (i think) at 3:01 after Bendy starts smiling. and how at 3:16 both the animation and the lyrics are implied to be kind of elaborating on or alluding to some of what Bendy was singing about in that song. you could even hear a bit of it right before Bendy grabs Norman. "Take a Wild Guess who the hero of the tale is gonna be..." with ink bendy in massive distress over what he's done to Norman and seemingly being ashamed of himself looking and being like that in front of Henry, knowing that it's not at all what Henry created him or wanted him to be like (hence the flashbacks)... ...that shit hurted. 😔😔 man, i just gotta say. i've been looking at your Bendy art and story for like, years (on tumblr). before BATIM was complete and chapters were still being made and you were still making up your own little rendition of the story as the game progressed. i'm really looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us now that the game's complete and you now have a much better idea of how you wanna mesh the game's actual story with your own. bonus tidbits i've caught: 3:55 - 3:59 Henry: "Norman?!" _Henry stares at Norman in disbelief of what he's become, or if it even IS him_ Norman: "...?" _Norman stares back, almost entirely unable to remember that mentioned name and this man he's about to kill_ Bendy: "Well, well, well! If it isn't Henry?" Joey: "Well, well, well. If it isn't my dear old friend." Bendy: "Don't be such a stranger, old buddy." Joey: "Don't be such a stranger, old buddy." i love how you're paralleling these two. to me, it's very likely implying that Bendy is starting to become the very thing he TRULY hates, but has no idea. he sees Henry as Joey (not literally, yk), but is becoming more like Joey himself. it's crazy. in the actual game, Joey's tapes are often found in places/areas closely relating to the Ink Demon. so that's another reason why i think it's cool you're still paralleling them here. remember when so many of us thought Joey was Ink Bendy? haha, those were the days.

[@williamgreci8219]

Interesting insight. Better than my first guess. Before reading this comment, I interpreted the voice at the end of this video as Bendy after changing into his more monstrous form.

[@jackojoyfox8015]

The little bits are what really get me. The sketch drawings of Bendy, the models and how well animated they are, not to mention… Alice was a hoot! I can’t wait for more! Wish I could save all those little sketchy doodles for reference. I’d love to draw Bendy again!

[@itz_axolotl2404]

Truly, a WOMP WOMP moment

[@Lady_ETHNE]

Oh my goodness, where to start! This was absolutely beautiful! Ok so first off, I adore the way Alice was animated and voiced here particularly. Everything was animated to perfection but Alice in particular looked so smooth and feminine with her movement. Haily's singing was also lovely and made Alice stand out a lot. I think this is the prettiest I've ever seen Alice look and sound. Second, I love this portrayal of Bendy. I love that he's animated to look like his regular cartoony self in both this and in "Welcome Home," up until the fight with Norman which is just adorable. But also, this Bendy has a bit more depth than his game counterpart (at least in Ink Machine. I've never actually played Dark Revival so I don't know about him there). He was willing to fight to protect Henry but after he turns into Ink Bendy and murders Norman, he turns to kill his creator until he looks at Norman and realizes the monster he has become. He becomes terrified of himself and runs away before he can hurt Henry next. That is a LOT more character development than Ink Machine Bendy had. This music video is a masterpiece overall and I can see how much hard work everyone put in here. I can't wait to see what you guys make next!!

Quite an amazing follow up to an already amazing music video years ago!!! The animation for Alice Angel especially can rival even Jessica Rabbit!

[@matteoventura7465]

This is absolutely fantastic! The integration of the 2D animation on the papers and the screens, and the 3D animation in the actual story was smooth. This definitely belongs to the top 10 best animations on KZbin.

[@EmilyTheManx]

Wow, this is literally 💋👌. I'm seriously blown away, this just literally blurs the line between the 2D and 3D aspects here, it's just flawless! ❤🤩

Hailey you just keep drawing better, your incarnation & design of Bendy it's simply the best in the entire fandom: The design shows his expresions very good, especially his mad/super shocked eyes, that's how people should REALLY draw Bendy. In terms of personality: You did a excellent job, the long & short time we see him in both Welcome Home & in this one give us enough of it. Bendy in this AU (Alternate Universe) is described as: a little crazy, mischevious, a little of a controller & malicious. But he does have a nicer side: As shown when he try'd to save Henry from The Projectionist but ended up being slammed by Norman, which caused his inner demon ( which is obviously Ink Bendy) to be unleashed & kill Norman by removing his head by force, but when he was about to kill Henry he regains control & sees Norman's corpse & he realizes the mistakes he has done & the monster he has just becomed & runs away from Henry before he can hurt him. In conclusion: A awesome incarnation of the little devil, i just hope the meatly sees your talent & might contract you to do artwork & animations of the next games & who knows? Maybe you will be the new animator of the discontinued Online Bendy Cartoons anyway see ya! P.S: Can you gimme tips to make my Bendy artstyle looks closer to yours?

You did this beautifully, and Alice’s movement’s are graceful and move perfect with the beat of the music

[@jennabell2473]

Alice angle looks so good😭

[@Jadengood1993]

Alice Angle has a Jessica rabbit about her and I'm all for it great job

[@Anchovy-404]

I Like this take on batim, a little spin off sorta thing!! I was kinda skeptical of this bcuz I wasn’t a fan of an old song but this one was awesome!!

[@user-hl2ey7yu2o]

I can talk endlessly about how much I love this Henry design! The author once created it as deliberately cartoon, but for some reason it was he who sunk into my soul the most. He is so laid-back and a bit of a jerk, and at first impression it may seem that this is not a person of a creative profession at all, but a carpenter or plumber. But this appearance creates such a contrast with the appearance of Joey, who, on the contrary, would put his strength into making the right impression. Drew looks like a respectable, decent person who can be trusted, but everyone who trusted him sooner or later regrets it. And Henry looks a little like a guy from a dark alley with murky intentions, but he's actually the most sympathetic and kind person in the studio! And his ears are sticking out, my God, it enhances this impression a hundred times.

Henry kinda looked like Popeye to me especially with those muscular forearms of his.

[@tattooeddragon]

OMG! Her voice is so incredibly rich and delicious! It’s like honey dripping off a chocolate spoon. I could listen to her every day 🥵

[@kimineeeeeee52]

​Alright, hailey I'm here Let's see what you wanted me to see

[@biggamer18]

This is amazing! If they ever make a Bendy animated series, you should definitely be a part of it.😀👍

[@kdepp90]

This was a magnificent masterpiece that no words can describe how truly good this is!! The animation, the story, and your incredible voice!! Thank you so much for putting this together! Truly remarkable!!!

4:04 Bendy: 'Hey buddy stop that now' *dies by getting slapped☠*

[@keymonipeterson6501]

Bruh he doesn’t die

[@Average_moth_fan]

@@keymonipeterson6501I know I just tried to be funny. Or just make up a POV that would have fit it 😄

[@cavalryscout3952]

Watched it about 12 times now and get a little bit more from it each time. Getting some strong Gnostic vibes now. A great work, looking forward to more.

[@HuggysLifeOfficial]

I’m sad This song is only five minutes I wish it lasted for a day. And why was I blushing for Alice? I guess it’s just the amazing art style.

[@Mammon_GreedKing]

1:59 when I see Alice

[@marybmw4031]
