"THEY JUST WANT TO KNOW FREEDOM" - Drawfee Animatic

This episode HAUNTS me, I just had to have a go at an animatic for it! Drawfee has been a huge stress relief for me through the Events of the last couple years, so I had lots of fun making this as a wild little tribute of sorts, lol. I hope folks enjoy!
Original episode, which is just as buckwild as this audio implies: • Drawing Thomas the Tan...

(I know my Tristan ended up looking kind of like nuesday Nathan, I'm so sorry buddy I did my best)

“When people draw Tristan and draw Nathan you cannot tell us apart” -Tristan in the original video

[@WolfsbaneCJ]

I draw tristan with three beard lumps, and Nathan with 5. 🤣

[@tennoyamamoto1800]

It took me a while to notice that's not Nathan

[@tristanacooper]

I have never been animated before, this is tremendous! Thank you for making this

[@seasidecave]

It was absolutely my pleasure! You guys were such a riot this episode, it's one of my all-time favorites 🙌

[@CMGrouch]

We love you Tristan!

[@nicolecarr6232]

Ya know Tristan is great but I think we can all agree the lore librarian is who we all want to hear from again

[@THExRISER]

Oh hi Tristan, thank you for this iconic moment!

[@MyPhone-zp1px]

I hope you get animated more! You've been a big part of so many great moments on Drawfee

You know how people take a completely unedited Shakespeare play and do something crazy with it like set it in space or a sports arena or some shit without changing a single line and somehow it just works? That is what you've done here and it's honestly incredible. And then as if that wasnt enough, on top of that this animatic is a technical masterpiece

[@mort0303]

People do that with Shakespeare? 😯

[@morebakeder]

@@mort0303 They did it with Romeo and Juliet in the 90's with Leonardo Decaprio playing Romeo, I was in high school when it came out and I remember being forced to watch it in an english class after we read the original.

[@pantalonesdemuerto7960]

@@mort0303 You've never seen "Macbeth in Space?"

[@Envy_May]

@@mort0303 they do that sort of thing all the time, the most common version of that you'll probably find is various era changes like being randomly set in the fifties or completely modern

[@U.Inferno]

@@mort0303 My high school did Midsummer's Night Dream but set in Vegas, gender swapped Julius Caesar, 1960s Twelfth Night, 1920s Comedy of Errors, Macbeth but just... modern.

[@UnorthodoxSoundwave.]

This has enlightened me to the fact that there's some alternate universe somewhere in which instead of Drawfee, we get Labfee or Scifee or something, where all the members of Drawfee are instead very unhinged, yet somehow licensed, scientists who have a youtube channel of various challenges they do. I don't know if I'm relieved or upset that I don't live in said universe

[@snappishtemperament213]

Drawfi is the show I never knew I needed

[@michaelblanton4915]

this sounds like Nilered

[@jogailejurkonyte4746]

"Welcome to Badfee, where we make dumb atrocities and plead god to forgive us for our sins!" And every episode also ends in maniacal laughter

[@KlutzyNinjaKitty]

An alternate universe where the hosts of Monster Factory and Drawfee are swapped.

[@blarg2429]

@@jogailejurkonyte4746 Do they still say "we're sorry" at the end, or is it more like "you'll be sorry"?

[@Camber126]

I love that julia remains perfectly calm for most of it, hands in pockets just chilling, then gives in to her mad genius to loose her creations upon the world. I love it

[@ExpletoryPenguin]

The way Tristan grabs Jacob by the collar after 'It's getting worse' totally conveys how Tristan was so perturbed by Julia's drawing, he went to Jacob like 'please make her stop'. But nothing can stop Julia though

[@mahadmubbasher]

Man, you beat out some incredibly stiff competition, but this might be my new favourite drawfee animatic. Just sublime

[@karasheybruh]

I love how Julia isn’t even affected by gravity. Everyone else falling down and Julia just stands there, unchanging.

[@adamlackseverything]

The delivery of "It's not getting better. It's not getting better! It's getting worse--Jacob!" is so ingrained in my head and it is absolutely one of my favorite lines from anything ever

[@heatherly893]

Julia standing in front of an explosion in a lab coat is the animatic I didn't know I needed until this moment. The camera work, the background gags, the little hand movements ... brilliant.

[@josephpowell9315]

This is an absolute gift. I didn't know how badly I needed this in my life. Brilliant visual storytelling, and a masterful reinterpretation of the source! (It basically what happened, tho.)

[@tairneanaich]

I simply LOVE the way Julia‘s coat flows dramatically behind her, especially at the end

[@ashleyguthrie572]

I love when he panics and calls for Jacob. You tattletale, you. As though anyone could stop her.

[@GracefulStars]

"Julia creates abominations" is my favorite genre of drawfee animatic rn, I could watch 10000 more

[@TaurusVersant]

This is absolutely incredible

[@the_ria]

This is one the most creative audio interpretations I've ever seen! Stellar job :D Also it's kinda hilarious how easily an actual lovecraftian monster fits into description of Julia's drawing-

[@poptartzgaming5545]

You've perfectly captured Tristan going through the stages of grief in this clip this is wonderful

[@elijosephson9860]

This has such midnight gospel vibes

[@TheMightyBattleSquid]

Forever my favorite drawfee episode. It's the one that really cemented me as a drawfee fan for life.

[@OliviaSNava]

TODD FROM MARIO!! In Julia's hand after they get thrown. That's so gooooood!!!

[@poinguin420]

This is one of my favorite drawfee animations. The storytelling is perfection

[@dahuntre]

This is probably the best animatic from a Drawfee audio I could ever imagine. Recontextualizing art to mad science with the commentators as horrified coworkers and everything, and the expressions and characterizations (especially Julia the chill mad scientist) are all amazing!

[@annebeach6630]

I love how Tristan and Julia are talking and there is just a lil Jacob in the background getting a fax and freaking out.

[@germen2631]

I've watched this like 10 times already, and just noticed today Jacob's conclusions hahaha. Great detail!

[@hannahc875]

The triumphant Julia and laughing while flying through the air Julia get me every time.

[@Infinitysquaredorsomething]

I love that you took this entirely out of context and did your own thing with the audio!

[@bluejaypirate4560]

i still think this is one of the best drawer animatics literally ever made

[@StraveTube]

Beautiful. Perfect. Flawless. Unbelievable. Incredible. Thank you.

[@demilad225]

Fecto Forgo, that you? Also, this was INCREDIBLY well done. I love the direction you took this.

[@ghost_type_dan]

the comparatively smooth animation of Julia's lab coat flowing in the wind made me loose it

[@jamesonmoore1837]

This is probably my favorite Drawfee animated.

[@LanceC17]

I'm so glad I saw this on my feed. This is AMAZING! Julia's pose during the explosion is just *chef's kiss* 🤌

[@QsPhilosophy]

I'm so glad for this! Julia's drawing and their reactions to it still haunt me to this day. Wonderful interpretation.

[@DeepBlueInk]

This is amaaazing!

[@namara-ashina]

still one of my all-time favorite drawfee animations

[@VincaMinor42]

This is masterfully done! The details, the faces, everything! Bravo!

[@okthen623]

This whole bit in the video is great as is but in THIS CONTEXT!!!! THIS STORY BOARD!!!! ITS AMAzing oh my god. Jesus i need to sit down wow

[@thomassol9725]

Dang you missed my favorite part. "The wheels on the car go please free me" 😂

[@apofid]

the frame at 2:34 is so powerful

[@shagerg2238]

Holy shit this is fucking unbelievable, I seriously love this so much!! Great work!!

[@HailTheRegent]

Man you perfectly captured Tristan's rising concern

[@emoboy42069]

This is so good, it takes the original and makes it so much better

[@eric_the_egggremlin]

I'm gonna cry I'm giggling so hard, this is BEAUTIFUL

rewatching this genius work of art

[@TehTeh911]

This is my alltime favorite drawfee episode btw omg thanks for this animation

[@justjjamn4952]

It _is_ true what they say about Dristen, when you draw him and Nathan, you can't tell them apart!

[@mirandatagliamonte9754]

Words cannot describe how much I love this

[@Nortarachanges]

When I have 20 minutes free and need good times, I click on the episode. Now if I only have 3 minutes, I can watch this! Thanks so much!! ^_^

[@G30R6E93]

Yessss!!! I always imagine a scenario like this when replaying this bit! It's so good!

[@isaacleduke750]

You did such a good job with Julia’s character lmao XD I love it!

[@b.rogers8452]

This is so good! I love it! You add so much humor to the audio with this interpretation.

[@spaacey1717]

There is no way someone who hasn’t seen the original can guess the full scope of what’s really going on in the video

[@valkyriedarkwar3505]

Oh man, the conclusions on Jacob's papers are such a perfect little touch!

[@wait_what_oh]

This is like my favorite drawfee animation I've seen. The animation itself is so well done and the story you've injected is so creative, entertaining, and just seamlessly fits the audio to the point where I could envision this just being it's own thing. I truly love it

[@themanysirs1814]

YO PEOPLE ARE MAKING DRAWFEE ANIMATICS??? YES???

[@Quinn2win]

The best thing about this animatic is that it's still not as scary as the original context of the audio.

[@Fionacle]

I KNOW DRAWFEE BUT I’VE NEVER SEEN THIS EPISODE I WAS NOT EXPECTING THE LINK TO SEND ME TO THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE OCS

[@greyschreiber7755]

the little "kill" button moment omg

[@kattastic9999]

Nothing could have prepared me for watching this, clicking the original video link, and seeing "Thomas the Tank Engine"

[@oceanstoforests]

this is absolutely magical

[@oceanstoforests]

rewatching this for the millionth time and just now seeing Todd. He's precious and beautiful

[@ilcucchiaio8175]

While this entire animatic is amazing and totally on-point, it's really the last 8 seconds that get me. Perfectly captured Julia energy right there. Bravo!

[@mimi_h]

this is amazing! absolutely enrapturing!

[@psyducktective]

I can’t get over Tristan pressing random buttons in a desperate panic of “ITS NOT GETTING BETTER”

[@angelpanda928]

This is amazing!

[@BFedie518]

Every time Julia draws it starts fine. Then she draws a single line that's just... Wrong. It only goes down from there. And we wouldn't have it any other way.

[@lokiiago_x0x]

Best season of stranger things so far

Truly incredible. I love it.

[@raikupwns243]

The is genuinely such a fun interpretation of the audio, I love the little story you created!

[@shilohhawk2990]

I think the funniest thing about all this is the fact that she supposedly had a “plan” that she told them before hand. What was the plan. How was THIS the deviation from that plan.

[@moonjellymusic]

This is surprising and amazing! I love the story you put with it, and that it has so many segments.
