  • In this story of kindness, friendship, and the fear of being left behind, a friendship takes flight as a mouse that wants to fly and an injured bird cross paths.
    Final film from the School of Visual arts. I directed, background painted, animated, and did about half of the cleanup/coloring myself! The rest was handled by my awesome team in the credits. Thank you to Colin Andrew Grant for the fantastic score, and thanks to SVA for the two grants that helped me produce this film!
    And thank you all so much for watching. This was a huge labor of love for me, and I'm so glad I finally get to share it!

    comment answering some frequently asked questions!!
    - can I repost this?
    - NO. Unless you're doing some sort of analysis (reaction video, discussion video,) just posting a small clip, or we otherwise came to an agreement, I do not give permission for Wings to be reposted anywhere. the only "official" places Wings is posted are CZcams, Vimeo, and my personal facebook page.
    -what are their names/genders?
    the mouse is Nutmeg and the bird is Bluebell, and they're both girls :D
    - what program did you use?
    - TVPaint!
    - how long did this take?
    - about a year! It was my senior thesis film at SVA
    - how did a string end up wrapped around the bird's wing?
    - i dunno, it happens sometimes with fishing line

    • @Remyfox819
      @Remyfox819 Před rokem +20

      It's primarily due to Disney's current obsessiveness over political pandering. Rather than focusing on good stories, characters and ideas, Disney is completely focused on identity politics, diversity and anything that fits the narrative of Twitter users. Pandering to these people has resulted in their films bombing again and again and losing money tremendously in the process. I haven't seen this Burrow, but I will look it up later.

      Anyway, Burrow and a lot of the other Disney shorts are pretty cool, the artists seem to have more freedom to experiment. Also highly recommend Loop, which I feel is a great instance of inclusivity done right. :)

    In terms of animation technicality, I love how it's consistent from colors to shapes, and it even aced all the 12 principles of animation.
    The pacing is also fine, it's not too dragging or too fast. The sound effects and background music is just right.
    Even the watercolor theme attracted me. Lastly, the story is heart-warming.

    Actually this reminds me more of a work from Miyazaki than Disney. It has a calm mood and is very touching. It has a soft look and smooth but still rough animation, like you are used to know from hand drawn animation. The soundwork is amazingly well done and the background music fits in just right. There is nothing to complain about. Very well done!

The sad thing about the whole story is that I would have liked to have flown next to her.

      @@otilialefey8514 then what were you watching? It's about courage, bravery, kindness, friendship, gratitude, wishing, joy and happiness. You must be very young and nieve. Don't know if you ever heard the Aesop's story about "The Lion & the Mouse". The animation's overall concept is like that Aesop's story. As for friendships lasting forever is an extremely rare thing. As you age the friends you made makes new friends and so do you. This process is always ongoing which is a part of life. In the animation I'm sure their friendship will last until something ends it like no food for one of them so one has to leave to find food or water. Distance is usually a real killer to end friendships and relationships. The other variable to end a friendship is death. So the reality here is very real.
