THE PLAGUES | hermitcraft s9 animatic

SONG. the plagues from prince of egypt. good movie watch it sometime
anyway. i might be a little bit insane. i did this in 3 days. for some reason. season 9 needless dramatization of the ren doc rivalry arc that literally hasnt happened yet and might not at all. has me in a chokehold. someone put these furries in therapy
i got a few questions about me swapping ren and docs place wrt the original narrative places of the song (doc would be a fairer comparison to moses than ren in the context of the plot etc) and really my only explanation is that 1. its been a long time since ive seen prince of egypt and whenever its not fresh in my brain the song just eternally reads to me like moses is lamenting about the attacks rather than calling them forth so when i was conceptualizing the animatic thats where my brain went and 2. in a roundabout partially unintentional way its kind of a reflection of how ren and doc's like. mentalities? are in the animatic? like ren definitely knows he fucked up in some way but is trying very hard to tell himself that he is justified and blameless and that doc is the sole aggressor in this scenario and doc is like. he doesnt think hes in the wrong but he is very self-aware of the insane shit he is pulling and doesnt really think of himself in a heroic light despite believing hes doing the right thing

[@abbies.158]

"Someone put these furries in therapy" is the singlemost best phrase i have ever heard said about doc and ren. That was great XD

[@gammafoxlore2981]

Who said that?.... this is brilliant!

[@_kaleido]

I love how basically the only interaction Ren and Doc have had since Ren became King is Doc flying up to Ren and screaming “FREEDOM” like a madman yet we get masterpieces like this out of it /pos

[@lentos2188]

I cant find in what episode it happend i wanna see it so bad

[@icantthinkofagoodname7964]

Ok, I'm officially OBSESSED. This is incredibly made and that paired with the song 👌👌. The dramatization of the conflict between doc and ren is so, just, raw, and genuine. It gives me literal chills and I have rewatched this SO many times. Keep up the good work!

[@Pathfinder-qp1he]

what?? a hermit craft animatic not entered on grian or scar??? I absolutely loved this! the lighting was superb and I loved how all of them looked especially Doc and Cleo!

[@duckcatthequrugosk5504]

I feel the same! It's always Grian aaaa-

[@PeregrineFalcon646]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE your creative visual style. The color palette is really simple but aids the story and the animatic so well. Plus, the way Doc’s eye glows? That’s so visually ominous and I am here for it.

[@PeregrineFalcon646]

AHH I just went back to watch your previous animatic and the SHIFT?! From blue to red?!

[@PeregrineFalcon646]

ALSO ALSO this somehow feels just as dramatic as the original?! Dare I say more?!

[@MrDiarukia]

The iconography with Doc's machines is just, wow, reminds me of Ghibli protraying senseless destruction.

[@chloedove2201]

I found this and put it on the TV and watch it with my sister (were both huge doc and Ren fans ) and we preceded to freak out screaming about how amazing this animatic is ! Especially my sister who is taking animation courses . We freaking love this you did so so amazingly well with it its perfect in so many ways and i hope Ren or doc get to see it because its just so good ! ❤ Edit: also your character designs are probably some of my favorite i have seen especially for doc

[@crowsandravens8989]

YOU DID THIS IN 3 DAYS???? ABSOLUTE INSANITY OMG YOUR SUCH A GOOD ARTIST

[@Nace.]

i am OBSESSED with your designs, like what?? especially doc's, he just- good shapes? hes such a dramatic design composition wise and i love him. chef's kiss, great character designs. i love this, its amazing, you're amazing. where else can i follow you, please i need to know, i need more of your art

[@stormbrain]

if you want to see more of my hermitcraft-related art, i have a tumblr sideblog, @potionofinstantdamage - i also post art on my instagram, @ghost.ofadragon

[@emberdragon3436]

Holy Hels this is incredible- The designs for… literally everyone- I adore Doc’s design. It’s incredible. And just the moment where he’s sweeping away all his papers in anger- And the moment with HotGuy (poor Scar)- The song choice The DRAMA The entire atmosphere you created… I love this

[@flamingfoxy2247]

"XISUMMMAAAA THE LOVERS ARE GOING THROUGH ANOTHER DIVORRRCEEEE!"

[@scififrenchfry]

This is one of the best HC animatics I have seen in a while. Amazing job on all the details and the stylization!

[@avcivi]

Oh you are gonna change some of my brain chemistry with all of these, I can tell. I actually 100% agree with the swap to make Ren sing Moses' part here. It fits them far better. Ugh and the parts with all the redstone as a bright red contrast, the shot with Hotguy and Bdubs.

[@reviloliehos]

HOLY SHIT HERMITCRAFT AND PRINCE OF EGYPT??? THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! i love ur design for doc and the last frame is GORGEOUS amazing amazing work!!!!

[@dinalijayasuriya3196]

FLIPPING BEAUTIFUL, AMAZING, HIGHLY DETAILED, DRAMATIC, UNDERRATED PROFESSIONAL LOOKIN ANIMATIC RIGHT HERE (if I could think of more synonyms I would add them, trust me)

[@dragonhe4rted]

... I remember watching your sander sides videos... man it's been 3 years... I feel old

[@stormbrain]

how do you think i feel man

[@katherinepurvin7802]

I have no idea who these characters are or what's going on but holy hell, that is one intense animatic. Your choice of song and art style mesh incredibly well.

[@dinalijayasuriya3196]

Just came back to rewatch this, I absolutely love the animalistic characteristics of your designs for these two aughhhh

[@catherinelin8548]

STOP AKSHSHASHDHKFFKS HOLY CRAP THIS IS AMAZING EVERYTHING IS AMAZING THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS!!! Ok in all seriousness I can see that my subscription was WELL worth it. I love the way you portrayed ren and docs season 9 dynamic, especially how ren is mostly shown in the light while doc is either shown as a siluet or in the shadows, and the stark contrast of the bright red that is present to show danger. It’s just, **amazing**. The music is just perfect, nothing more to say there. All the references to docs season 9 shenanigans with the lightning arrow, charged creepers, world eaters, and wardens? ✨*chefs kiss*. The art? The backgrounds? The shading?✨*chefs kiss*. Seriously my jaws where agape the entire time, this just made my day!

[@ruysclan]

:o

[@randomwingithingy]

oh man. that was freaking epic. the designs. the art. the use of red, especially. the compositions, and how they line up with the music. everything. how have I only discovered this now??

[@AuraBird]

Dude this is phenomenal! OMG I love this so much I cannot get over how stunning it is! The dramatization of the conflict between them is so wonderfully done and the way you conveyed it is just stunning! Definately one of my fav HC animatics!

[@rhyafireheart3139]

I love this a lot. It took me a moment to realize that it wasn't trying to follow the actual storyline but rather created a new one. and honestly this one is really, really cool. Especially coming our of season 8 where Doc and Ren worked together very closely. Wonderful work, I've got chills all over. The design of the chars fits the epic style of music and drive of the song. The simple but striking colours and contrasts help tell the story and your timing is just on point.

[@poofball1014]

This. This scratches my brain in all the right places.

[@Drolfwulf]

comes back two weeks later to say that I watch this video like, once a day at least because I love it so much

[@cool_kid71FF]

so refreshing to see animatics on more of the hermits :) this was super cool! loved the dramatic coloring, very pretty

[@asteroid435]

I rewatch this every few months because i love it so much

[@chimeradoodles]

I absolutely love this animatic!! Each frame is so pretty and I think the lyrics fit the characters well! Also love how you remembered the beacon and it’s color changing functionality on top of the crastle

[@e.millustration1759]

coming back to say i return here to watch again at least once a month XD

[@thelegendh4sit]

Ive only watched this twice and it’s already made me so crazy. i love this so much

[@kapdraws..1147]

ur ren design is top tier holy hell ;-;

[@drag0natlas]

ohmygosh this is incredible-- also, probably my favorite Doc design ive seen so far!!! Amazing work! :D

[@icypolargirl78]

Hoooly shit!!!! This was such a wonderful experience. Such talent!!!! I don’t even have the words to express how cool this is! Doc and Ren dynamic in this so freaking goood Keep up the awesome work!

[@misssdove]

Hi! Hi, what???? This is so incredible?? Every shot is like a painting, and the tension is so strong with the music. Plus having the king play the role of the opponent of the king is such a cool use of the song. I adore the color pallet, and the facial expressions are amazing. Plus the designs, the designs?!?? The way they look humanoid but also distinctly like their skins/descriptions is so incredible. 10/10 would recommend and in fact will be doing that, my friend deserves to see such incredible art! Stellar work as always :D

[@fernssy]

why does ren remind me of scar from the lion king? I LOVE THIS SM

[@pulp5476]

THE ZOOM IN ON THE WORLD EATER IS SO COOL THE WHOLE ANIMATION WAS SO POWERFUL AND YOUR DESIGNS GO INSANE IM GOING INSANE OMG

[@OhNoItsKat]

Oh man. Oh man. That was fantastic! The music, the composition, the facial expressions! I'm late to the party but absolutely blown away! SO good!

[@lavenderbrown3730]

THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS!! CHILLS FROM THE ENTIRE THING OMG REN AND THE RED BEACON AHHHHHH SO GOOD

[@Alice-not-Alice]

Ah, this is nice. I need Ren to become a mad king at least once every couple years, the fan works we get out of it are always excellent

[@Drolfwulf]

Your Doc design has me going feral, this is such a good Doc design

[@thatoneguy1350]

I legit thought this was about the Buttercup Wars until the end and I was like "Jeez what did I miss?"

[@Captain_Seyo]

For a goat, those are some massive canines

[@stormbrain]

i actually mostly referenced lions when i designed his face!

[@cookiecat8827]

I got CHILLS!!! Love the artstyle. :D

[@iravasylenko1347]

this is incredibly well done!!!

[@MistingDreams]

Okay - first 17 seconds, I hadn't turned the speed back to normal so I was listening to that at x1.75 speed and that was literally the most terrifying and ominous 17 seconds ever. Like, goose bumps. And it set the stage brilliantly for the rest of the animatic and your art style. I've rewatched his 3 times already. You match the characterization to the words so incredibly well and it's just *chills*. Stupendous work! :red_heart:

[@daryamoky8100]

THIS IS SO EPIC AND NOT LIKE THE CANON INTERACTION AND I'M HERE FOR IT :D Honestly, you make Doc's and Ren's stories a thousand percent more theatrical and I LOVE ITTTT

[@darialooker]

Oh my god!!! This is so mind blowing! I was sitting in awe of how convincing and impactful each frame was together with the music. For some reason it clicked when Ran put the red glass block and camera moved to look down on him. So cinematic! Great job

[@talkingto]

im absolutely captivated by this animatic- your artistic ability is like blowing me away right now its just so good?? the expressions the body language/poses the framing and camerawork!! its all so cool and well done my god :00 i keep pausing and rewinding to admire your work

[@celticlion]

At first I was confused now I'm mad impressed......

[@merri-golden8826]

I am absolutely LIVING for your doc design! It looks so epic!

[@aloe_illustromic]

EXCUSE MEEEEE THIS IS SO GOOD????? The colors the compositions the timing the character designs the ARMY OF WARDENS aaaaahhh I watched this with a huge smile on my face I'm so excited you made their rivalry so dramatic!!!! Epic work fam, keep it up!!! :D

[@ellieloves2read]

this is seriously one of the coolest videos ive ever seen

[@aloe_illustromic]

[@theyofmanynames]

I genuinely love how we get these dramatic masterpieces out of a bunch of friends playing Minecraft. This isn't sarcasm btw

[@ShatteredGlassRoses]

Spoilers! The creator is apparently a seer considering Doc's new video. Also, Impulse may or may not have been told by Grumbot to overthrow Ren. But who's to say? :)

[@crowsandravens8989]

[@stormbrain]

[@crowsandravens8989]

@@stormbrain I could see it happening.. docs been talking about a revolution and opposing the king soooo

[@PeregrineFalcon646]

Yeah it’s not this dramatized, but you should still watch it anyway lolol. It’s a fun time.

[@BetaRat]

God DAMN that is so incredibly well made! I love your art style! It fits so well with the song too!!

[@Luphyla]

I have no idea what's going on here, but I love it!

[@familytablet6453]

How is this so good-

[@PeregrineDee]

Very very good. I love your character designs and the pure raw vibes(ambiance?) of the limited colour palette and style! Fantastic. I am very happy that this song is making the rounds. The movie is so good. An absolute bop. The only thing good about my religious upbringing tbh.

[@YamaguchiEtsuko]

This is amazing!

[@professorrogue3473]

THIS IS AWESOME!

[@e.millustration1759]

Incredible, spectacular, amazing

[@bottlecap_kid]

THIS IS SO COOL WHAT

[@dominicburch2374]

In the actual movie, Rameses didn't let Moses's people go until it was too late. Rameses lost his son to the final Egyptian plague, "The killing of firstborn children". It was then that Rameses let Moses's people go. But, Rameses wouldn't let them go so easily. As God split apart the red sea, Rameses and his army chased after Moses and his people. As Moses and his people got across, god let the waves crash onto Rameses and his army, supposedly killing them all. Then, years later, Moses is seen on top a mountain carrying 2 stone tablets, these tablets holding special rules, these rules chiseled onto their surface, are the 10 commandments of God.
