The Little Mermaid Genderswap Animatic Shorts

Hey guys! This is a thank you video for 18K subscribers!!! Thank you all so much for your support! 🥺💓
The Part of Your World Reprise Animatic is posted now on my Patreon and will be published here after a week! 💕 It's been fun working on it even though I didn't get to animate the full scene lol But I still hope you guys will like it! :D
My patrons voted on what animatic to do next and they wanted it to be Into the Unknown so yea I hope you'll look forward to that! :D
The animatics I do are and will mostly be genderswapped versions of Disney or musical songs because it's my way to show how boys can also feel love, sadness and vulnerability just as how some girls are portrayed in today's media. I just thought that there isn't much representation for boys with "soft/feminine" characteristics. Also, I really LOVE the couple dynamic where the roles are reversed (like a headstrong girl and a timid boy). I personally think that this couple dynamic is not represented or shown enough so I wanted to contribute to that! :D I actually have a story plot in mind that I want to share to you guys through an animatic so maybe I'll do that before into the unknown! :D

I feel like “kiss the girl” makes more sense in this version than the original. In the original they peer pressured Eric into trying to kiss Ariel despite him being very unsure of his feelings towards her but in this version it’s very obvious male Ariel like female Eric and it sounds like the song is mostly supportive

[@aliciagregoire9971]

So true!!

[@hieithefox]

Agreed

But that wasn't the point. Eric(a) has to kiss Ariel, not the other way around. Ariel kissing Eric(a) would be useless.

[@snowstorm5742]

Wow this was so cute and adorable! I saw your Frozen animatic a month or so ago and really thought it was beautiful and sweet. I like how you show how male characters can cry and be emotional too because stereotypical gender roles talk about how boys shouldn't cry or how they should always remain strong which I think is absolutely ridiculous. Females too are also viewed as too emotional which I feel is wrong since both genders should be able to show emotion and not be judged for it since we're all human. I can't wait to see more of these Disney animatics and, besides your amazing talent for drawing these animatics, you also have a really pretty voice(Referring to Part of your world song) ^.^

Everyone, I have an idea for names that have definitely been said before. Ariel could still be Ariel since it's a unisex name, and female Eric could be Erica. I mean, that's literally the feminine version of Eric.That's what I'm going by, anyway.

[@themighteefox]

This...looks...AMAZING!!!! I love this kinda "feminine" male and also the more "rough" female :D It's really something different to the normal Disney movies. I also wouldn't mind, if you would've kept Eric as Eric or Ariel as Ariel.

I like to consider myself a pretty decent voice actor (even though I've only done a voice over for a game that a friend made back in college lol). I can do both male and female roles, plus I can do animal impressions. So, essentially whether your looking for a high voice or a low voice I can do it. You don't have to obviously.
