Fantasy high entertained me the most, it was a fun party. Sophomore year prepared me for Brennan’s ability to hurt me. Unsleeping city was honestly a master craft. But crown of candy? I wasn’t prepared. I screamed. And when siobhan shouted at the fairy “IF YOU CANT BRING HER BACK WHATS THE POINT OF MAGIC” I legit forgot to breathe. My absolute favourite series by far. They always outdo themselves just when I think it was already at the peak.
I related to your descriptions perfectly! I have 3 episodes left of a Crown of Candy, after just finishing the Unsleeping City....and it all started with Fantasy High. So lucky to live in an age with this content and talented folks.
ONE THING I JUST NOTICED: Calroy's got strings around everyone except for Lapin (and possibly Liam or Ruby in the corner, they're both ranged fighters with bows) which works REALLY well with how he tries (and fails) to get his hooks in Lapin and fails miserably. I love it! Delicious!
I can’t stop watching this... the fear on Liam’s face while the twins are unaware.... “Do you walk in the valley of kings” & then the split frame of the lollistaff & swirl warden?? Aaaaaaa!! Those frames of Cinnamon growing too this is all really well done
gonna gush incoherently about this real quick. THE SUGAR PLUM FAIRY’S EYES OPENING IS SO FUCKIN COOL. and the jet/amethar being stabbed parallel IS HURTINGG ME. 2:36 is such an epic frame. you’ve managed to visualise the story so well and it feels really natural. hot calroy rise up. tldr GREAT JOB
yes! plumbeline has a little bread next to her speech to show her saying ciabatta's name, and cal has a little four leaf clover to show him saying "you were so damned lucky"! thank u for noticing!!
@@kindlespark9 I noticed the lil bread loaf! and I thought it a great way to signify plumbeline telling fibs about who's to be next emperor and then you've brilliantly captured amethar's immediately stunned expression. And the split frame of four of the bad apples (not physically - they're a real mixed plate!) readying themselves to commit their acts of treachery to the lyrics "the daaaaaaaaarrrrrk. the dark. the dark. the dark." - it's simply *chef's kiss* (aargh! food pun again not intended! :'D) honestly if it weren't for the fact that this contains major spoilers I would have shown it to every person as a way of persuading them to watch the show, it's that good - every scene you've drawn here is truly fantastic and I'm in agony waiting for friends (who aren't as chill about spoilers as me) to finish the show so I can show them this masterpiece!
I'm especially losing it over the theo, amethar and lapin frames near the beginning and amethar meeting saccharina with the bright red background GOD. and the amethar and jet parallel?? and the locket??? crying forever
whenever i stop being excited about art again i come back to this to remind me that you can make really fucking cool stuff. thank you for keeping me going
this is truly the best animatic i've ever seen. mind blowing. showstopping. leaving me breathless. your eye for color, lighting, character shape, silhouette, and expression is absolutely insane.
This is one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen...Every frame fits SO perfectly and has so much incredible detail. The Lapin “do you ponder the manner of things” beats made me audibly gasp this is really really stunning
booted up my laptop just to do this and i'm so excited. since i can't fit this in the amount of characters it'll take on twitter, i shall SCREAMMMMM about this animatic in this comment instead. but yeah, holy fuck, sam, YOU BLEW IT RIGHT OUT OF THE WATER WITH THIS ONE! starting off with the twins and just going all in with the parallels is driving me insane. from the halves of the heart to the weapons to the tiaras to the linking pinkies. AHHHHH. COLORIZED "DO YOU WALK IN THE SHADOW OF MEN WHO SOLD THEIR LIVES TO A DREAM?" HIT SO MUCH HARDER THAN I ANTICIPATED. someone already said this, but the animation you did of spf's eyes opening to "the dark" gave me CHILLS. the connecting panels of swirlwarden and lollistaff was SUCH a good detail as well. i think 0:55 has to be my favorite panel out of the whole thing solely because it's jet and i just miss her so much. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE SEQUENCE OF RUBY CASTING FOG DURING THE FIRST COMBAT? THE PINK????? AND THEN THE TRANSITION OF THE CERESIAN EYES TO THE STAINED GLASS WINDOWS BELIZABETH WAS WALKING BY?????????? WHEW. i pretend i do not see hot humanized calroy. except that i do. AGAIN WITH "THE DARK." i don't know if you intended this, but using that lyric specifically for the villains in both instances, first with spf, now with the big baddie four, was immensely sexy, actually. THE INTRODUCTION OF RINA AT THE END OF THE BRIDGE. YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!!! the lightning coming with her slamming the winterscoop into the ground... EXACTLY! SHE HAS THE RANGE! reusing the panel of castle candy at the end, but with the pcs in it this time, was so big brained of you. AND YEAH!!!!! I THINK THAT'S IT!!!!! sorry this is so long, but i think i got it out of my system now. i love this so much and i'm so proud of you for being able to put it together.
BETHANY OH MY GOD...... THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!! im so glad u noticed the eyes to stained windows transition, that was ridiculously hard to pull off and im not even sure if it worked but it was one of my favourite details to add!!! godddddddd BETHANY im getting weepy thank you soooo much im so so glad you liked it!!!!!!
holy shit this is amazing!! almost all of the villain shots were just chilling but jets death???? OW and saccharina's entrance!!! wow!!! this is just impeccable!!
Well, in the world of calorum these people would almost certainly have a biology of sorts. Their anatomy functions using some background, quiet medium of magic, but they still have a structural anatomy. They will certainly have bones, of some extra hardened, crystalline hard candy.
0:33, 0:44, 1:12, 1:21, and 2:37 ARE SO GOOD LITERALLY WTF HOW?!? AND THE COLOR SCHEMES FOR ALL THE VILLAINS?? UGH YES!! AND THE PARALLEL SHOTS OF SACCHARINA’S EYES WITH THE LIGHTNING AND LIAM’S WITH THE SHADOWS AHHHHHH
My favorite thing is that at 1:21 Calroy doesn't have a string on Lapan, referencing that he didn't know about his being a warlock of the Sweetening Path, and he also doesn't seem to have one on Ruby, which is weird
Three years later and I'm still watching this. What an amazing piece of work this is, I can't believe you did it in two weeks! Every frame is incredibly dramatic and helps tell the story. Even the scenes walking through the castle hallways add so much.
I know I already commented but this is my like 100th watch and it's the first time I realized that everything loses color when jet dies and color only comes back when saccharina enters... put this in a museum 😔
Holy fuck!! The artistry JUMPED out!! Your visual storytelling is incredible, and everything fits so well it's as if the song was written specifically for this series. My personal favorite moments are the introductions of Theo, Amethar, and Lapin, and the killer transition at 1:11. Incredible work!
i'd always planned on watching a crown of candy since vaguely seeing all the lapin art, but when i saw the first few seconds of this i instantly Had to catch up enough to watch it in full and it was So Worth It
I haven't watched much of CoC because it is Too Intense for my fragile heart, but goodness! This is great! You've managed to hit the Exact Limit of CoC emotions I can handle having at one time before I need to take a break -- with a very well made animatic to boot! I cannot comprehend how long it must have taken you to not just make all these quality frames, but COLOR and SHADE them too?? Truly you are a blessing to this community...
just finished acoc and this captures the EMOTIONS so fucking well i've rewatched it twice having to pause at every frame thank you so much for sharing this
i wish i could like this multiple times. i'm rewatching acoc for the 5th or 6th time rn and i go back to this animatic every time bc it's beautifully done and the song fits so well. i actually can't hear glitter & gold anymore without thinking about them
there are many great parts here but the three panels of Sir Theobald Gumbar at 0:26 convey his story perfectly in only a handful of seconds. honestly that, Amethar's backstory, and Lapin's backstory are my favorite parts here with how much they portray in so little frames
SAAAAMN (this is em) THIS IS SOOO GOOD THE TIMING THE PACING THE ART JUST WOW... THE ENDING.... SACCHARINA'S INTRODUCTION... IT'S ALL AMAZING!! when i saw belizabeth i almost screamed i love the part with the villains omg... i feel like i could watch it a million times and catch more each time its SO GOOD
I just finished A Crown of Candy last night and immediately went to tumblr desperate for more content. I found this and I've watched it 4 times since then. It brought tears to my eyes the first time. This is incredible!
I still come back to this video every once in a while. It's literal storyboard perfection! The transitions are so good and just in general everything goes immaculately with the music!!
I swear. Every time I watch this animatic, I notice something different. Like this time, seeing the clover by Calroy referring to how he said that Amethar is "So damn lucky".
This is honestly one of the most amazing animatics I’ve ever seen. The timing is beautiful, the art is amazing. You absolutely killed it. Stunning work.
Purposefully have been avoiding this cuz I knew it would either 1. Make me incredibly sad or 3. Add firewood to my already burning hatred for Calroy/Belizabeth/Grissini Now you sir, have achieved both, all with beautiful, beautiful artwork *chef’s kiss* (pun intended). You slapped me in the face, but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a beautiful hand.
The parallel start and end shots of the castle exterior, the time lapse of Theo, the split screen of Swirlwarden and the Lollistaff completing each other (and that fact that Lapin and Theo are, quite literally, representative in their power of glitter and gold), the sequence of villain shots, the parallels between Jet's death and Calroy stabbing Amethar, the fade-out of the Sweetest Heart, the statues of the Rocks sisters, the beautiful shot of Belizabeth and the stained glass, the strings reaching from Calroy's fingers to all but Lapin and Ruby...this is truly a masterpiece
I just found this but god DAMN it's so good!!! There's literally too much I love about it to be contained in one comment but I'll try: Theo's part at the beginning where he's following Lazuli, then in war, then kneeling for Amethar? Calroy and the chess board! The part showing all the villains to "the dark, the dark, the dark"! How it went black and white after Jet's death until Saccharina showed up and then it was in color again! Saccharina's whole entrance! The transition of Saccharina with cute lil Cinnamon to Giant Dragon Cinnamon! Showing all the villains back at Castle Candy and then showing the Rocks family outside, mirroring the earlier shot of the castle! It was just all so cool!!!
first time I saw this I hadn't seen the show yet, thought it was cool. Now I'm actually watching it and the detail and highlighted moments are just gut wrenching. Well done!
I found and watched this the first time before I even got to the cathedral scene, mostly because I liked the song and I had already spoiled myself on the deaths/twists that the season held. Coming back and rewatching it, I picked up so many more little details in this. The three shots with Theo following, fighting, and kneeling continues to be my favorite, and hits different after the final episodes, but all of it is just a masterpiece. I loved every second of it.
this is. SO good. i can't stop watching it, it's maybe the best animatic i've ever seen. truly WONDERFUL. i could go on and on about all the frames and shots and the details i liked about it but i'll just say that is was so amazing, i love it.
I just got in the habit of thinking of animatics for my own DnD game when hearing songs, but when hearing "Glitter and Gold" I can only think of this, an already perfect animation. It really shows the epicness, the heartbreak, and the beauty of this whole story.
I've watched this so so so many times and it's probably one of my favorite animatics ever. The transition from the eyes to the church windows is so good and subtle I lose my mind every time. Incredible, outstanding, showstopping, never been done before
This animatic is what got me to finally get Dropout so I could watch ACoC! Your animatic was so beautiful it got me to spend money (and it was worth every cent!!) :D
I cannot put into words!!!!!!! This blew my mind and made my heart burn all over again!! it is perfection, I can't stop watching it. Every detail is truly perfect and I can't stress enough how many feelings every frame gave me. JESUS CHRIST you're good
HI this gives me FEELINGS It’s so perfect, the way the beginning is lighthearted just like the actual show but shit gets real SO fast with the intros of the adult PCs (which are all PERFECT and amazing. The four statutes + those lyrics??? Theo’s journey in three frames to end kneeling before amethar? SUGAR PLUM FAIRY + those lyrics???) And then the second verse focusing on the villains (and more perfect intros! Calroy + strings esp) and then some scenes of the villains winning??? The songs bridge and the transitional time until Saccharina enters??? ENTER SACCHARINA on her own verse giving color back to the animation and another tone shift so the hero’s are winning??? I would never in a million years have seen it on my own but this song perfectly fits this story and the art ties it together so well I will never hear this song again with out playing these pictures in my mind. Ive watched this at least 10 times by now

There’s something rather poetic about amethar being a storm herald barbarian and saccharina being a storm sorcerer
Holy shit I never made that connection
o|-< !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love seeing you in ever d20 animatic like how much you love your fans is awsome! Best cast best dm best story's best fans I love your stuff
Fantasy high entertained me the most, it was a fun party.
Sophomore year prepared me for Brennan’s ability to hurt me.
Unsleeping city was honestly a master craft.
But crown of candy? I wasn’t prepared. I screamed. And when siobhan shouted at the fairy “IF YOU CANT BRING HER BACK WHATS THE POINT OF MAGIC” I legit forgot to breathe. My absolute favourite series by far. They always outdo themselves just when I think it was already at the peak.

Magic can have a point, even outside of necromancy.
@@tysondennis1016 okay? Did you watch the video? Or the show?
@@ereynolds72 Yes, just because bad things happen and can't be undone doesn't mean we should stop believing.
@@tysondennis1016 my guy… she was mourning her dead sister.
I feel like we aren’t talking enough about Calroy sitting on the throne with the dagger
1:49 👌 is perfect
ONE THING I JUST NOTICED: Calroy's got strings around everyone except for Lapin (and possibly Liam or Ruby in the corner, they're both ranged fighters with bows) which works REALLY well with how he tries (and fails) to get his hooks in Lapin and fails miserably. I love it! Delicious!
I personally love the 3 frames of theo with lazulli, the war and amethar as he is kneeling, such powerful images
Same! I had to go back and quick pause each frame to appreciate it!
It gave me the energy of Rose, Pearl and Steven and shook me double
Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never-the-same, totally unique, not-ever-been-done-before
I can’t stop watching this... the fear on Liam’s face while the twins are unaware.... “Do you walk in the valley of kings” & then the split frame of the lollistaff & swirl warden?? Aaaaaaa!! Those frames of Cinnamon growing too this is all really well done
gonna gush incoherently about this real quick. THE SUGAR PLUM FAIRY’S EYES OPENING IS SO FUCKIN COOL. and the jet/amethar being stabbed parallel IS HURTINGG ME. 2:36 is such an epic frame. you’ve managed to visualise the story so well and it feels really natural. hot calroy rise up. tldr GREAT JOB
yeah the fact that the eyes opening were fully animated really made it otherwordly compared to the rest being an animatic
Just watched this again and the way the eyes become stained glass at 1:11 is JAWDROPPING!!!!! hot calroy truthers unite!
1:46 I’m gonna go feral is that a FOUR LEAF CLOVER? Post the “you’re so lucky” speech?? God the cinematic excellence!!!! This is SO good wtf
yes! plumbeline has a little bread next to her speech to show her saying ciabatta's name, and cal has a little four leaf clover to show him saying "you were so damned lucky"! thank u for noticing!!
@@kindlespark9 I noticed the lil bread loaf! and I thought it a great way to signify plumbeline telling fibs about who's to be next emperor and then you've brilliantly captured amethar's immediately stunned expression.

honestly if it weren't for the fact that this contains major spoilers I would have shown it to every person as a way of persuading them to watch the show, it's that good - every scene you've drawn here is truly fantastic and I'm in agony waiting for friends (who aren't as chill about spoilers as me) to finish the show so I can show them this masterpiece!
ALSO HOT EVIL HUMAN CALROY AYYYYYYYYYY
it's just pink hair Brennan and i love that so much
I'm especially losing it over the theo, amethar and lapin frames near the beginning and amethar meeting saccharina with the bright red background GOD. and the amethar and jet parallel?? and the locket??? crying forever

The funniest thing about this is that the characters are very distinctly not made of flesh and bone
Well, in the world of calorum these people would almost certainly have a biology of sorts.
Their anatomy functions using some background, quiet medium of magic, but they still have a structural anatomy.
They will certainly have bones, of some extra hardened, crystalline hard candy.
I CRIED!!! Hope you submitted this for the art montage for the beginning of the finale!!!!!!!
0:33, 0:44, 1:12, 1:21, and 2:37 ARE SO GOOD LITERALLY WTF HOW?!? AND THE COLOR SCHEMES FOR ALL THE VILLAINS?? UGH YES!! AND THE PARALLEL SHOTS OF SACCHARINA’S EYES WITH THE LIGHTNING AND LIAM’S WITH THE SHADOWS AHHHHHH
If you couldn’t tell I’ve literally watched this like 13 times in a row and I physically cannot get enough

I saw this for the first time three weeks ago and payed for DropoutTV to better appreciate this beautiful piece of art.
i'd always planned on watching a crown of candy since vaguely seeing all the lapin art, but when i saw the first few seconds of this i instantly Had to catch up enough to watch it in full and it was So Worth It

Three months later and I have yet to see anything at all surpass this absolute masterpiece it’s simply my favorite thing ever
I still come back to this video every once in a while. It's literal storyboard perfection! The transitions are so good and just in general everything goes immaculately with the music!!
Holy crud this is AMAZING. The sheer artistry, the work and love that was put into this... I'm floored!
Alright, it's a month later and I'm still just completely ASTOUNDED by this masterpiece. 😭
This is an incredible song and I'm convinced it was written precisely to tell this story
I swear. Every time I watch this animatic, I notice something different. Like this time, seeing the clover by Calroy referring to how he said that Amethar is "So damn lucky".
WOW
This is stunning, and like, the timing, the storytelling of it all, the expressions and the scenes you chose, WOW amazing work!!!
this fits so well and the art is amazing you can really see the emotion
I literally cannot stop coming back to watch this over and over
This is honestly one of the most amazing animatics I’ve ever seen. The timing is beautiful, the art is amazing. You absolutely killed it. Stunning work.
This is quite SWEET,the CREAM of the crop of the Crown of Candy animations,again,this ROCKS.
AAh this is fantastiq
Purposefully have been avoiding this cuz I knew it would either 1. Make me incredibly sad or 3. Add firewood to my already burning hatred for Calroy/Belizabeth/Grissini
Now you sir, have achieved both, all with beautiful, beautiful artwork *chef’s kiss* (pun intended). You slapped me in the face, but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a beautiful hand.
Chiabata*
Grissini is alright, hes just proud of his country.
The parallel start and end shots of the castle exterior, the time lapse of Theo, the split screen of Swirlwarden and the Lollistaff completing each other (and that fact that Lapin and Theo are, quite literally, representative in their power of glitter and gold), the sequence of villain shots, the parallels between Jet's death and Calroy stabbing Amethar, the fade-out of the Sweetest Heart, the statues of the Rocks sisters, the beautiful shot of Belizabeth and the stained glass, the strings reaching from Calroy's fingers to all but Lapin and Ruby...this is truly a masterpiece

This has a permanent tab open on my desktop, just so I can come back and rewatch it when I want that *epic* feeling
I'm going to go watch this 500 times and cry now. There are no words for how absolutely incredible this is
I found and watched this the first time before I even got to the cathedral scene, mostly because I liked the song and I had already spoiled myself on the deaths/twists that the season held. Coming back and rewatching it, I picked up so many more little details in this.

HOOOOOOOOOOLY MOLY dude this is maybe the best thing i’ve ever seen in my life? THE DETAILS?????? ITS SO GOOOOOD WOW
Really hope you submitted this for the finale because this got me so hyped up for the final battle
this is. SO good. i can't stop watching it, it's maybe the best animatic i've ever seen. truly WONDERFUL. i could go on and on about all the frames and shots and the details i liked about it but i'll just say that is was so amazing, i love it.
i love your take on cruller!!
I just got in the habit of thinking of animatics for my own DnD game when hearing songs, but when hearing "Glitter and Gold" I can only think of this, an already perfect animation.
It really shows the epicness, the heartbreak, and the beauty of this whole story.
Can't wait to watch A Crown of Candy so I can understand this art
Well now I have a new obsession. It’s wonderful! Your timing is just miiiiind blowing!
I don't know how many hundreds of times I've watched this since finding ACOC 3 weeks ago
Stellar, incredible. I felt a shiver run down my spine at several shots during this. Great, great job.
I know I'm a year late, but I am OBSESSED with this. Absolutely amazing.
I wish I could 👍 this every time i watch it bc I come back to this video almost every day 😍😍😍😍 This is PERFECTION
I’ve watched this so many times that it’s now always in my recommended and I just…I can’t NOT watch it again 😂
this legit sent shivers down my spine
ABSOLUTELY INSANE THIS IS SO GOOD AOSGHJEOWIRGHOWRE NO WORDS
THEOBALD'S SHIELD MATCHING LAPIN'S STAFF AAAAAAA
OH MY GOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! THE EDITING THE ART THE EVERYTHING!!! I'm watching this on loop for forever
oh this is GORGEOUS i am afflicted by this
I've watched this so so so many times and it's probably one of my favorite animatics ever. The transition from the eyes to the church windows is so good and subtle I lose my mind every time. Incredible, outstanding, showstopping, never been done before
this is amazing work, the scenes, how lyrics fit, it just all works out :D
the way this animatic has lived in my mind rent free for weeks..... i can't stop watching it
i am GAGGED
This is insanely beautiful you couldn't chosen a better song for this story
This was absolutely incredible to watch but also this song is my ringtone and sitting through this felt like I was ignoring a phone call ashkldjal
I think this might be my favorite thing
INCREDIBLE, SHOWSTOPPING HOLY MOLY- the timing on this is so freaking good!! I already adored this song but this usage of it? OUTSTANDING
This is the best! It really highlighted their whole journey. All they’ve lost and everything at stake for all the characters. You’re amazing!
I like this ages ago but I don’t think I commented on how brilliant it actually was.
oh my god, i literally have no words... this was so good!!!!!
That was AMAZING. I got whole ass chills
Why am I crying? I’m literally crying???
Ive listen to this song before, but never imagined how perfect it fit for this! I cant stop the chills
chills
MY GOSH. THIS LEFT ME AWESTRUCK.
SCREAM,,,,, SAM I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS IVE WATCHED IT SO MANY TIMES AND IVE TEARED UP EVERY SINGLE ONE ITS SO GOOD I CANNOT
i can't stop watching this
This animatic is what got me to finally get Dropout so I could watch ACoC! Your animatic was so beautiful it got me to spend money (and it was worth every cent!!) :D
this is AMAZING every frame is so powerful and beautiful I can't stop watching this
0:51 THAT WAS SO GOOD????
I've got chills.
I cannot put into words!!!!!!! This blew my mind and made my heart burn all over again!! it is perfection, I can't stop watching it. Every detail is truly perfect and I can't stress enough how many feelings every frame gave me. JESUS CHRIST you're good
Ah I'm dying this is SO GOOD!!! Like the pacing??? And the line art? And the colors? And the song is so perfect?! AMAZING
this is absolutely BREATHTAKING!!! I am litterally screaming this is so good!!!!!
HI this gives me FEELINGS
It’s so perfect, the way the beginning is lighthearted just like the actual show but shit gets real SO fast with the intros of the adult PCs (which are all PERFECT and amazing. The four statutes + those lyrics??? Theo’s journey in three frames to end kneeling before amethar? SUGAR PLUM FAIRY + those lyrics???)
And then the second verse focusing on the villains (and more perfect intros! Calroy + strings esp) and then some scenes of the villains winning??? The songs bridge and the transitional time until Saccharina enters??? ENTER SACCHARINA on her own verse giving color back to the animation and another tone shift so the hero’s are winning???
I would never in a million years have seen it on my own but this song perfectly fits this story and the art ties it together so well I will never hear this song again with out playing these pictures in my mind. Ive watched this at least 10 times by now
In the words of Brennan, incredible.
