    Stay tuned for more TGWDLM animatics ;)

    I wanted to take a sec to thank everyone for all of your comments over the years. This was my first attempt at storyboarding when I was 16, and y’all’s support gave me the confidence to pursue it as a career. I’m 21 as of writing this and currently in college for animation. It makes me so happy to get comments from people rediscovering this and to know that this video got so many of you interested in Starkid. On behalf of other artists out there, thank you so much for all of the kind words and feedback, it means the world

      @chloboboo7842 Před 3 lety +273

      It could be that the infected version of the characters have access to the thoughts and feelings of the character they infected. Because the 'infected' target the people they know by doing what they know the person will be weak to. That's why the greenpeace girl didn't work on Paul, because he doesn't like musicals and her whole song was just a whimsical musical number, but she wasn't aware of that, as she didn't know him that well. I much prefer thinking of it like he fought back just to insult Bill though!

    y'all ever just think about how the events of tgwdlm are definitely the already infected versions of all of the characters reliving the events of the "real" people fighting against the aliens. since, y'know, the aliens couldn't have all that information from the opening number if they hadn't lived all that before

      Sometimes when I rewatch i remember how Paul was supposed to enter and he didn't. So I thought maybe he actually wasn't taken over, though probably impossible. That he chose to blend in. When they called him in he finally realized he had a cue because normal humans ,from what I see, don't know the song the alien is singing. There's also that maybe when he's suposed to enter is when he's suppose to go into that theater place or some stuff??

      My theory is that after the government almost immediately detected them in HF, the aliens decided to stage a play and make people come to them. Think about it.... after you watched the musical, I bet you couldn't get the music out of your head, and I bet you tried showing the musical to others, spreading the infection. The true horror of this musical is that the events are happening to the audience. The apotheosis is upon us ALL.

    3:14 What I find interesting is that, if we consider nornal Paul and Apotheosis Paul as separate, this is a point where it's normal Paul that seems to be giving up. That is, until Apotheosis Paul suggests "But happiness can't come before its fall". Somehow, that sentence seems to give normal Paul back his resolve to destroy the meteor, even if it means sacrificing his own life. Maybe after that point he's just playing along until the right moment to strike. That's my interpretation of it.

  • @ladytrehalose7052
    @ladytrehalose7052 Před 2 lety +14

    Oh my goodness so many wonderful things about this animatic -- the lean on the fourth wall by having Paul enter through the literal theatre entrance, the first time his eyes flicker blue, having the blue meteor also be a spotlight that Paul reluctantly steps through -- ahhhhh I love this so, so much. Love how his body moves to the melody before he realises what happens, and he tries to stop it. ((Also you've captured everyone's likeness in such an effective way??))
    So many cool ideas and motifs you play with!!
    Love the "never!!!!" and the immediate fear on his face. Goosebumps at the veins on "feel your apotheosis begin"! Shout out to 2:52 - Paul spinning around like in a dance while he loses to the apotheosis. The three spotlights closing in on him.
    Love how you start his conversion with the sort of, sharp contrast between 'normal' Paul and 'hive' Paul, but that when you get to that really important solo -- it's very hard to tell the difference between (like it's just two parts of Paul talking to each other, not so much a Hive infecting his brain). I do wonder if there was a way to push Paul's ambivalence/struggle against himself, but I also would not know how as I am not an animator :,,,)
    Regardless!!! This was brilliant and a pleasure to watch. Thank you *so much* for writing and sharing

    the use of blue as a shorthand for infection?? the way it slowly invades paul's space as the song progresses??? the flash in his eyes??? the _spotlights????_ it's so subtle!! so insidious!! my spine!! tingling!!! my mind!!! shook!!!! and like don't even get me started on the expressions here, because _they're all! so! good!_ paul's vapid smile when the infection sings through him! the subsequent horror!! the differences in posture good _lord_ i am a big fan of basically everything about this you done did a fantastic job here!!!
