RIP to the great and greatly unappreciated for his time, Edgar Allan Poe..... if he could only see how much we appreciate his work today.
red mercury You know he married his 13 year old cousin
Aros Yes. Still a great poet.
June 06 yeah he is but its kinda disgusting if you know what i mean
@@slyme9517 and you also know laws were different in that time?
The poem is just one big metaphor. The Raven is his insanity, and he wants it to leave him because he doesn't want to go back and remember the lost of his love Lenore. Edgar Allan Poe actually was married, but his wife died of an early age. He went insane after that because he could not bare to think his wife wasn't alive.
Wow that explains it all...... You are amazing.
Carlson Thacker Thank you! I appreciate that! Although I am happy with my work on this animation, I feel like all poetry, its open to your own interruption. All explanations are open from what you take away from the original piece. I just put imagery to what I took away from it. Im glad you enjoyed it.

Finna copy this for me homework
harden dayzie same
*his cousin
Funny, I never heard that Lenore poem before, but put in this context, it could easily be considered a direct prequel to The Raven. Interesting idea.
Solid work, by the way. Always great to see another person show appreciation for classic gothic fiction.
Connecting the dots is always fun
Quoth the Raven "Nevermore"
quoth the raven, "eat my shorts"
😂😂😂😂😂LOL
XD
Treehouse of horror tho haha
Bryce Orwig it says “eat my shorts” in the Simpsons version
BikeRace Brandon yea, and after bart says that, she says "BART, STOP IT! He says 'Nevermore' and that's all he'll ever say!"
He only got paid $ 9.00 for it. Today writers get paid millions for writing crap.
+N Edward Stephanie Meyer didn't write crap that's just your opinion on the book so respect her.
lol u two
I wish
im sure $9 was alot of money back then
Eh. it's abt $40
What is with the autotune?
6:37 when a talking raven of the saintly days of yore steps inside your house.
That's so enchanting, fascinating and very well done! Brilliant!
Thank you so much!

There are three stanzas missing. Why the decision to cut the poem?
It was a creative decision that went back in forth in my mind. I didnt want to cut out any portion of the poem but during editing, I felt that the piece would be much stronger if that portion was cut from the film. Im really happy with that decision as it gives a supernatural atmosphere with the narration of those 3 stanzas. Good catch by the way.

I'm back for my favorite Halloween story. Your version of the Raven, is and, always has been my most favorite one.
Love ya, Mr. Quinn.
your fan, Peejay
Thank you so much!! Working on getting funding for a better version. Stay tuned!!
@@DirArronQuinn I will. Looking forward to it. I wish I was financially able to help.
the most beautiful thing i heard i love Edgar Allan Poes work
I've read this tale in my native language (portuguese).
Nice to see they kept the same words and atmosphere in the translation.
Thats awesome!!
Saw this in class today....was scared....I kinda like it 😐😐😐
Jess is Gaming AGAIN? Thank you! Tell your teacher I'm flattered they showed my work in their classroom!!

Quoth the raven: eat my shorts!
A tear fell from my eye lid, onto my cheek and then my shoulder...
Beautiful
the raven = christmas eve lol
Somehow thats very fitting haha.
-AQ
i was thinking i felt a nightmare before Christmas vibe
Tapping,tapping at my chamber door, quoth the raven "nevermore"
Epic video, the funniest part that I liked was when the bird came in the condo and the mans teeth were so weird... But awesome story, music, story telling voice, and everything was just so epic!!! 😃😃😃😈😈😈🌟🌟🌟👍👍👍
Thank you so much!! Really appreciate it!!
Missing some verses/lines from both poems, though. I like those verses that you cut out. :/
The delivery was WAY off in some spots, on top of the missing verses, also. Completely took me out of it. Found myself waiting for the animation to end instead of dreading it.
I'm back home here on CZcams, Mr. Quinn. I have missed you
Hey!! Nice to see you again!!0
Beautiful job!
Thank you!
But the raven still beguiling my sad fancy into smiling.......
My favorite Raven hands down
Thank you so much!
@@DirArronQuinn you Kno I love ya😊
And Basil Soper's voice makes it so Awesome ❤️
I like the beginning. That's unusual to start off before going into The Raven.
I always loved the poem Lenore and when I decided to take on this animation I thought it would be very interesting to connect the two together. It made it a much more sorrowful story plot. Although the narrator's name is never mentioned in The Raven, I had Guy De Vere from the poem Lenore be the main character for substance. Im glad you liked it.

Edgar allan poe is my fav writer
Same!!
That's real pain right there
not bad. I like how you represented the madness. Very nice.

Dir. Aaron Quinn thank you kind sir! This animation really helped me appreciate this work by Poe!
Dir. Aaron Quinn thank you kind sir! This animation really helped me appreciate this work by Poe!
Great job. I discussed this poem with my professor, renowned poet and literary scholar Donna Denizè, and I quite like what you did here. My sole question was whether those were flowers on the branch outside his window in the "bleak December".
Yes those were flowers. It's a metaphor for life and death
9:37 felt that right through my soul
Hold you liked the video. Thank you for subscribing

Love this poem. Very nicely done too. Thanks for sharing this.
A very dramatic rendition of the poem to be sure. ^^
Thank you!! Be on the look out for the remake coming soon!
@@DirArronQuinn Oh, Sweet! I look forward to it then. ^^
This is one of my favorite renderings of it! The caw before the first "Nevermore" is perfect.
Gloomy Sunday was good idea! LIKE!!! (Y)
Happy to know someone else knows its history!
+Dir. Aaron Quinn How do you get the raven soundtrack please ! ( Not the Lenore one)
+Daiyan Mahfuz it was recorded by a voice actor friend of mine Basil Soper. As for the music, it's an original score by Les Harper
Lenore 0:36
The Raven 3:30
Awesome! Love It!! Great Job!!!

I’m glad it helped!!
@@DirArronQuinn Keep uploading!
Respite... quaff... wonderful lexicon.
I love this!!!♥♥ New to Mr Poes work....learning myself
Avaunt! tonight my heart is light, No dirge will I upraise, but waft the angel on her flight with a paean of old days! Let no bell toll! -Lest her sweet soul, amid its hollowed mirth, should catch the note, as it doth float up from the damned earth.To friends above, from fiends below, the indignant ghost is riven-From Hell unto a high estate far up within the Heaven-From grief and groan to a golden throne beside the King of Heaven.

Saw this in class
Is it really a seventh grade poem?
love your use of sound here in..
Thank you. Thats all Les Harper. Hes amazing.
What is this music called during Lenore? It sound so awesome.
Hey! I'm glad you liked it. The music in Lenore is called "Gloomy Sunday" (The Hungarian Suicide Song) by Rezső Seress instrumental version.
-AQ
impressive, man! great ensemble of talent!
Thanks man. Glad you enjoyed it.
perfect
Who here is still confused? I've read this story over and over. I've watched videos, and listened to people read it. I have no idea what is going on
Light Bulb! Me neither.
Mlg Swagman ah, I get it now. It's not really scary like people say however. Is it just that it's not scary to us anymoe?
Dude you did a awesome job
Thanks man. Really appreciate it.
That was amazing,and stunning!
Thank you so much!! Don’t forget to subscribe!!!
Did u draw this video cartoon thingy?
Yes
My 5 year old loves this. Thank you. :)
Thank you so much! This comment means a lot to me!
Why did they skip so many stanzas
Alleyah Sharief Only three, but it really helped the peice. It didn’t work out with the supernatural aspect of it having those 3 stanzas. I have no Idea why I’m replying to a 2 year old comment
Shoob Videos I don't know why I reply to an 8 month old comment
Did you animate this? I'm definately subscribing
Yes I did and thank you for subscribing!! More animations on the way! Thanks again for the support!
-AQ
2:58. whats the name of the song????
Great work. You should cover "The black cat" and "The Cask of Amontillado"
The Cask of Amontillado would be a very ambitious animation to produce. I’m sure I can get it funded soon, however, I will say that The Oval Portrait and The Masque of the Red Death are in production for 2020 and 2021. 😉
Hey Aarron, I just wanted to share this with you. My ten year old watched one of your lovely videos but she had nightmares about the image of your personal icon. Yes, the picture of the boy with one eye bigger than the other. Don't ask me why. Who knows how kids see things? But I thought I'd give you this feedback, since you obviously do such beautiful work and I wouldn't want people to avoid your art for such a silly thing. I remember once when she was three years old, there was an animated character on an insurance commercial that made her scream and be very frightened. I didn't get that, and I don't get this either. Nothing like that has happened since then, so I thought I'd just share that with you.
Thanks for the feedback. It was much appreciated

What music is used for Lenore
I really don't understand what this guy's poems are about
+rinokumura Lenore.
it was about his wife who died and he went insane
rinokumura fuck you
I don't understand how you could not understand you uncultured swine!
rinokumura death stupid and his wife also going insane
lmao are the bells at 0:36 - 0:43 the ones that were used in "For Whom the Bell Tolls"?
😉
🤘🏼
It's been told that Edgar was writing this WHILE married to Virginia, and this is what he was thinking if he died.
Thats very interesting.

nope
Can I post this on my facebook page ? @Dir. Aaron Quinn ?

He has different cognitive functions, it's not only level of grammar but judgement and perception.
Awesome job
Thanks Lukas. Glad you enjoyed it.

I liked the poem
sweet lord jesus almighty the animation is like the people who make go animate calliou videos drank a whole tub of fermented little cearsers pizza grease mixed with, and i quote, "the strongest form of alchohohol you can find", and proceeded to make a awful parody of go animate that was finger painted onto construction paper with pudding
Hahaha thank you!!
quaff oh quaff
Missing a good chunk of the poem
hi nwaps students
The title was misleading for me. If you mentioned "Lenore" at the start is would be clearer. No offense intended, just my opinion.
Lenore and The Raven connected. You can't have one without the other.
I think he died after the flashes
Misery comes for us all
@@DirArronQuinn I bet that dude is reunited with Lenore in Heaven
i know the raven is a great poem but what is this animation
the narrator in the first part looks so much younger than lenore
that part also had a bit of autotune
that section with the fricking kissing his wife in heaven and the raven turning a lot bigger
everything was going on in this animation
Thank you so much for your comment and feedback. This animation was done 5 years ago and I’m first to admit that my skills were a bit dodgy back then. Everyone did their best as much as they could to come together and create this beautiful piece of art!! It was a blast and a challenge to make! Don’t forget to subscribe!!
hahahah gloomy sunday music at the end
Karol Sixx and in the beginning.
;)
did the rayven leave
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door...
So no, the Raven is still there. Poetry is relative, you might like to believe that the Raven left, but in truth Poe left the Raven.

Dir. Aaron Quinn How do I get that full soundtrack in your "Raven" poem ? Please answer ! I like that music !
When it comes to poetry with language like this i never seem to understand what's going on. Anyone care to explain the story?
Edgar is reading at his campfire, and a bird comes to tell him he will never be happy again, he will never find love.
At the end, it says that Edgar's soul will stay in the "shadows" and the Raven will always be there to tell him he will never get better.
Its open to your interruption. Poetry like Poe's is like a distorted map and its up to you to find you way. Never be ashamed that you dont know whats going on. Thats part of the fun.

For some reason when I first read this poem as a child I had a distinct impression that the narrator murdered Lenore.
+Dorus Lynn Poe was overtly troubled and was always tested by his prevailing vexed eternity. to shorten the explanation I think your assumption is not so distant as to be crazy.
um how?
6:38 lmao
Yes
If I was your tracer I'd give you a A+ lol... But really great job
Thank you!
I personally don't like it. You took the black out of it and added color. Some things are meant to stay dark. Though I surely appreciate the intention.
Thanks for watching!

Contact Les Harper.
Hi Mrs. Bunts. Its me Rush.
Glad to see my animations are being shown in the classrooms!!
Who is watching this in 2017?
by yours the slandered tong
Way to completely skip over most of the ending in favor of some flashy nonsense.
Quaff...
