Another fun fact 4 years later; DeeDee Magno Hall, who voices Pearl, played Nessarose in the first national tour and San Francisco production of Wicked.
I hope something like this comes into play for steven universe. There's so little we know about pearl that at this point it's tough to tell who she belonged to, such as rose, there's signs telling us that she belonged to rose but signs as well saying she belonged to a diamond....... But if Blue peal and our salty pearl were friends I hope we get something like this in the upcoming season
Okay, okay, okay, 1. THE CHILLS 2. I love the ending 3. I really like how you potraid blue pearl. She is so mysterious, I love it. 4. THIS IS AMAZING 5. I Love the idea of blue pearl and our pearl being friends 6. NEVER STOP DOING THIS THIS IS ART 7. How do like twice? 8. I appreciate that pearl is wearing what she is wearing in the answer and not now in the modern day. Okay, I'm done.
At 1:30 the lyrics could be; "And nobody in all the stars, no Diamond that there is or was" but besides that the lyrics in the original song match the characters and setting perfectly!
I've never seen this musical, but I've heard this song dozens of times, and I can only imagine the main singer is literally flying around the stage strapped in a harness suspended by a rope. I honestly never want to know what the scene actually is just so I can always believe that's what happens
...I was about to describe the actual choreography to you and then I reread it properly as "never want to know"...your innocence will stay preserved. xD
Albus Nix No, please, go ahead and describe it! I doubt I'll ever get a chance to watch it, so I'd probably prefer to know what really happens before I live the rest of my life thinking they actually fly around on ropes
Little Snuggle Well, in the actual Broadway performance she's only on wires for the last chorus of the song (starting just before "So if you care to find me," because in the full score the Emerald City guard rush in and start to arrest Galinda, at which point Elphaba rises up into the air and shouts, "It's not her you want; it's me! IT'S MEEEEE!" and then launches into the final chorus). The part of the song before where this video starts is them in the clock tower with Galinda trying to calm Elphaba down and Elphaba saying she won't go back; there is then another dialogue part where Elphaba tries to give herself flight but ends up enchanting a broom instead. Then we get to where the video starts and it's Elphaba trying to convince Galinda to come with her and face the Wizard; Galinda says no; and then the guards come in. So she does get to fly a bit, but only at the end of the song. Most storyboarding/animatics, however, do have her flying around pretty quickly (though that's because they re-imagine it). Look up "Defying Gravity Storyboard" and try to find the one by EatherStar--good example of how most storyboarders seem to choose to do it (since it's easier to play around with her flying in animation than in live action).
Alright, I just watched the video you told me to find, and it's pretty awesome. I just have to say though, when Elphaba first starts flying, I just couldn't stop laughing. It's just so hilarious to me, and I'm so glad you told me to watch it
I literally got chills, it was really well made, and I like the idea of Pearl and Blue Pearl being friends in the past Edit - I think I've found my new obsession: watching this video :D
This is really emotive and so beautiful, I love this even more that Canon. Because no matter how much you sugarcoat Pearl and Pink relationship, and Pink wanting to save Earth, she never stopped being a servant and a slave to her diamond... But in here, GOSH!!! Pearl is really empowered and really breaking her chains to be her own genuine person/gem who finally serve no one, and that's a really powerful message
I was about to say that Pearl wouldn't summon her swords from her gem as they're physical, unlike her spear, but I just remembered she can store stuff in there, like bandages, so why not her swords. Anyway, cool animatic.
I cannot even fathom a way that I myself could explain in words HOW I feel this video is perfect. How it fits like a single missing puzzle piece. I am OVER THE GODDAMN moon. I Adore it, no I just love it. This. Is. PERFECT.
I like of how she's says she can have her chance to fly. Pearl:*starts flying* Pink Diamond:Stop flying or I'll shatter you. Pearl:*stops flying* Rose:I'll let you fly if u wanna be my burd and help me create a revolution of war and shatter pink diamond secretly. Pearl: *grins *
Heart Song same here. I WANT THIS AS PEARLS BACKSTORY SO BAD HER AND BLUE PEARL BEING FRIENDS AND PEARL LEFT FOR ROSE BUT THEY STILL REMEMBER EACHOTHER PLEASE AHHH
me, yesterday: You don't understand, I want mORE good Pearl content. Gimmy amazing Pearl/Yellow Pearl/Blue Pearl interaction, I'm so thirsty for that. me, right now: hhhhhOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY MOOOOOOOOOTHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR OOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFF SSSSSUUUUUUUUUGAAAAAR, DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!!
I never realized how similar Idina Menzel and Deedee Magno Hall's singing voices were until now. This is one of the reasons why this is an awesome video.
"No Diamond that there is or was." That is actually very cool. That would be like Pearl slightly throwing hints about how Pink Diamond changed who she was, and at the same time saying that Pink Diamond is dead. It would be a really cool double-meaning.
//cries// this...was literally the most *beautiful* animatic I've ever seen. The expressions were so lively, the art was breath-taking, and the storyline behind it was extremely thoughtful and creative. I can't imagine how much work you put into this, or how much you practiced to get this far. Congratulations, you have got another subscriber and eyes full of tears.
Pampa Kaktu my grandmother saw it about 2006 ish but didnt like it, yet my friends mom and he said its amazing. And i found out about alexia khadime and deedee being in it so thats cool
I swear the voclas give me chills every single time I watch and this is a beautiful animation I thought someone from the Crew animated this on their spare time. This is purely amazing.
XSkyIsHereX well her skin and gem colour is white so it must be, yellow pearl belongs to yellow diamond and blue pearl belongs to blue diamond...but then what happened to pink pearl?
Well her color scheme has most white, blue and yellow pearl have their gem where their diamonds gem is, so Pearl has her Gem where white diamonds gem is so most evidence points to her being white diamond pearl
*sees this after "A single pale rose" episode*
*sits down, trying not to cry*
*cries irremediably*
Jeez was 'A single pale rose' that long ago? XD
@Nicole Dessins YES
@@poketorr1517 that's what happens when hiatus strike over and over, you kind of forget how Long ago episodes actually aired
Nah
We were robbed of a runaway Pearl who joined the rebellion to free other pearls like her.
It's very fitting. Pearl is doing something that would be very _wicked_ to all other Homeworld Gems.
Also her voice actress was in Wicked.
Sapphirewingthefurrycritic DEEDEE WAS IN THERE? I’ve never watched it lol
Aw, I love this. The idea of another Pearl being supportive of Pearl's decision to fight for Earth. It's so heartwarming, it's making me cry
Especially if its a gem who is very loyal to her homeworld.
Like dksmdmmsms its so nice
Yes I love this so much
I came back from "A Single Pale Rose" and I don't know what to feel rn
*I'm just gonna pretend that nothing happened.*
YES YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES
OMG ITS THE MKATWOOD
mkatwood MKATWOOD!
I was not expecting to see mkatwood here.
*OH SHIT*
😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰
funfact: this was also preformed by the person who voices sardonx in a play
(so its techinacly pearl singing)
this isnt sardonyx's voice actress. the singer in this video is idina menzel [she voiced elsa in frozen]
Confused
@@memethyst They said "also" as in someone else
Another fun fact 4 years later; DeeDee Magno Hall, who voices Pearl, played Nessarose in the first national tour and San Francisco production of Wicked.
@@memethyst they mean alexia khadime who played elphaba and sardonyx
Someone show Rebecca Sugar this, PLEASE!!!! You have a lot of talent.
Tome Of Cartoons i totally think so as well
Tome Of Cartoons YES show this to Rebecca Sugar. So that blue pearl could join the crystal gems.
I hope something like this comes into play for steven universe. There's so little we know about pearl that at this point it's tough to tell who she belonged to, such as rose, there's signs telling us that she belonged to rose but signs as well saying she belonged to a diamond....... But if Blue peal and our salty pearl were friends I hope we get something like this in the upcoming season

YEAH

Okay, okay, okay,
1. THE CHILLS

4. THIS IS AMAZING
5. I Love the idea of blue pearl and our pearl being friends
6. NEVER STOP DOING THIS THIS IS ART
7. How do like twice?
8. I appreciate that pearl is wearing what she is wearing in the answer and not now in the modern day.
Okay, I'm done.
*are you though?*
IM,... THEY SHOULD MAKE THIS AS A REAL EPISODE. I WANNA KNOW HOW PEARL BECOME THE PEARL WE KNOW. THIS BETTER BE THE STORY WE GET.
Allison Radosh AND she had a friendship with Blue Pearl who NEVER told a soul even to the Diamonds
They should also add the defying gravity song into it too!

Yesika Narvaez MY NOTIFICATION DIDNT SHOW ME YOUR COMMENT BUT OMGOSH that would be a great idea for the whole story.
Spack rock Garnet So? Theres a Credits Section of an episode for a reason.
I honestly got CHILLS

This hurts my soul, but I love it a lot.
Hi, I love your channel!!!!!
Lea C. I love your chanel I subbed to you. I'm new tho.😛
I JUST WANT AN INCREDIBLY DETAILED PEARL'S BACKSTORY IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR CREWNIVERSE????
Cellochicita yes
well u got ur wish, they are making it xdd
Fox Avenue AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Soon my dear, soon...
I feel so triggered
Holy crap I wasn't expecting that to be as powerful as it was. I literally had to double take at how amazing that was. Like, It's so prefect!
Jakeneutron YES SO TRU
Jakeneutron Same
Jakeneutron by perfect u mean PEARLfect PUN INTENDED
This hit me right in the feels.

Pretty much, ya
What an update for Hamilton Hamilton is life
Is this video the Breaking point?
*BECAUSE HE JUST SHATTER ME!!!*
JC N WELL DAMN
At 1:30 the lyrics could be;
"And nobody in all the stars, no Diamond that there is or was" but besides that the lyrics in the original song match the characters and setting perfectly!
yellow pearl and crystal gem pearl singing popular please!! it's such a yellow pearl song!
THIS
Hmmm, good idea, wink wink ;)
That would be amazing.
Yes, PLEASE!
iT HAPPENED!!!
The 43 people that disliked it thought it was "dis I like"
Derpy y e s
I love the thought that Pearl and Blue Pearl were once friends. Even if it might be highly unlikely
Aislyn Smith we are not friends. We are sisters
Aislyn Smith well actually it’s more likely
its likely now since in the new episode blue pearl tells pearl “welcome back”.
I'm pretty sure that happened with at least one of Pearl's homeworld friends
Captain Sardonyx I must correct you I think you mean sister
I think it'd be a bit of a stretch saying Homeworld Gems understand the concept of friendship
_This is so fucking perfect oh my god_
Depressed Optimist *IT WAS SO GREAT, IT PUT SO MANY TEARS IN MY EYES I LOVED IT*
Depressed Optimist I agree its... DANG WHY I BROKE MY RESET AHHHJJ

Well now that we know the true rose quartz
The "I hope you're happy in the end!" Always gets me, I immediately start tearing up when I hear that, this is my favorite Animatic ever 💕
I think I broke the replay button...
BukaTuka here 0:00
i'd PAY to see this fully animated
M Amber SAME
And the real pearl sing this oh my good my wig would be gone
Omg YES
*blue pearls voice*
Welcome Back.
didn't deedee (pearl voice actor) did wicked too? I swear she's a Broadway musical veteran
TRIGGERED wHy she was Nessarose in Wicked
DeeDee magno is the voice of blue pearl too
I want deedee sing hamilton songs ;-;
TRIGGERED wHy she has
TRIGGERED wHy she sang "That would be enough"
Pearl's face at the "Bring me down" is amazing. I love this animatic, it's beautiful!
1:42 Daaaaamn. If I had drawn this shot, I would be sorely tempted to call it a day right there.
I literally got chills, it was really well made, and I like the idea of Pearl and Blue Pearl being friends in the past
Edit - I think I've found my new obsession: watching this video :D
This song is made for Pearl's character glad seeing it sketched out
👍

Beautiful. I love the idea of the Pearls interacting.
Idina's voice kinda sounds like DeeDee's
FireofGia IKR?! Someone should make Elsa sing it's over and see just how interchangeable they are.
Silver Skyline this is sang by the voice actors of Anna and Elsa so they'll sound the same
Actually, it's the voice actors of Elsa and Rosetta.
I CAN’T GET THE DAMN SONG OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!! YOU’VE CURSED ME WITH YOUR AMAZINGNESS!!!!! CANT. STOP. REPLAYING!
Actually the full song fits them perfectly.
Well,We don't actually know if they were even remotely close lmao
I like of how she's says she can have her chance to fly.
Pearl:*starts flying*
Pink Diamond:Stop flying or I'll shatter you.
Pearl:*stops flying*
Rose:I'll let you fly if u wanna be my burd and help me create a revolution of war and shatter pink diamond secretly.
Pearl: *grins *
Bepis Pepsi *_coughs_*
So ummm yeah that didn’t age well
This is literally the best SU fan content I've ever seen. I'm literally sobbing.
Heart Song SAME... FUCKING SAME
Heart Song same here. I WANT THIS AS PEARLS BACKSTORY SO BAD HER AND BLUE PEARL BEING FRIENDS AND PEARL LEFT FOR ROSE BUT THEY STILL REMEMBER EACHOTHER PLEASE AHHH
I must have seen this at least 50 times since last night...
The art and choreography of this was stunning the song choice was perfect and it fits pearl really well! Very powerful and emotional ! :'( :')
The ideas that come from this video are better than Pearl’s actual backstory.
watching this 3 times a day is the thing keeping me sane
ExplodingPotatoes yes. FRIEND YES.
with the reveal that yellow pearl, blue pearl, and our pearl had a relationship it only makes it better
mY hEArT this is beautiful
Thank you!!
Omg this is amazing. I love it 👍. Also this made me appreciate bird mom more now and blue pearl 😂😂
me, yesterday: You don't understand, I want mORE good Pearl content. Gimmy amazing Pearl/Yellow Pearl/Blue Pearl interaction, I'm so thirsty for that.
me, right now: hhhhhOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY MOOOOOOOOOTHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR OOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFF SSSSSUUUUUUUUUGAAAAAR, DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!!
Dissy Swirl you mean HAPPY IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
my heart is pounding this is perfect for pearl
I never realized how similar Idina Menzel and Deedee Magno Hall's singing voices were until now. This is one of the reasons why this is an awesome video.
What's this? My favorite musical and my favorite show? Yes please.
And nobody in all of Homeworld, no Diamond that there is or was is ever gonna bring me down!
"No Diamond that there is or was." That is actually very cool. That would be like Pearl slightly throwing hints about how Pink Diamond changed who she was, and at the same time saying that Pink Diamond is dead. It would be a really cool double-meaning.

This introduced me to Wicked and Defying Gravity a few years ago. Ever since then being Elphaba has been my dream. Thank you
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
AND ITS HAPPENING
IM
FFFF
HHHH I SHIP IT
WHERE MY BLUEXRENEGADE SQUAD AT???
IceHeartTheBirbAddict B I N C H
ITS TIME
TO CONVERT
I'm crying the ocean out right now
plus malachite
I've never seen Wicked but I really like this song. I wish it was longer, though.
Supermariogirlz The song itself is a lot longer but I'm guessing the artist didn't want to draw so much
this was the last 2 minutes of the song I think. And the context of the first 3 minutes don't really fit
this is why I love this fandom
this is the first fan work that has made me feel how the show makes me feel, incredible job!
i got goosebumps watching this. amazing. and it would be awesome if this was something that similarly happened when pearl went to follow rose.
GEEZ! This was so good, I forgot to breathe for a minute.
Just found this, good god. What have you done to me? I can't stop crying...
PAMAZING
PEARLFECT
THE PEARL PUNNNNNSSSS
YOU GET A PEARL POINT MY FRIEND
This has so much emotion in it. I was crying at the end because it was so powerful
I love this and su but never seen wicked. is there any recommended version if i see it in future?
Brady Thomas i'm not even sure there's a recorded version of the musical tbh
Pampa Kaktu my grandmother saw it about 2006 ish but didnt like it, yet my friends mom and he said its amazing. And i found out about alexia khadime and deedee being in it so thats cool
Brady Thomas the one with Donna Vivino as Elphaba and Ally Mauzey as Glinda in 2013
Margo S Carlos Alejandro Alvarengaill look it up in future thanks for the recommendations :)
Wicked is one of my favorite plays, if you can find it I'd really recommend watching!
That mixed with the music gave me goosebumps.
BEST SU FAN-ART I've ever seen! Fun Fact: The voice of Pearl was in the original cast of Wicked as Elphabas sister
Its unbelievable that after 4 years I can look at this and say I'm still amazed, I'm still shocked by the beauty of it yet it's so simple, I'm amazed
my fav cartoon plus my second fav musical... oof, right in the heart
The feels...
The inspiration...
The beauty...
The hurt...
I never realized HOW perfect that song matches Pearl!!! Thank you, and amazing work!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 *standing ovation* the emotions are what did it for me!!!!
omg this is my favorite animatic, ever
This is too amazing. WAY too amazing. I can't process it!
I swear the voclas give me chills every single time I watch and this is a beautiful animation I thought someone from the Crew animated this on their spare time. This is purely amazing.
Absolute chills. I always wanted to make a SU animatic of Defying Gravity, but I don't think I'd ever be able to top this.
didn't sardonyxs voice actress do wicked?
Dirk Strider
Yes
Oh hey Dirk. How's it going?
also pearl's
jade and dirk are here :P
That cool
I love this one too much for words! Your sketches on this one are top notch, I love the story, and it's set amazingly! Great job!
this is canon
the21balloons I like your Chihiro/Sen profile picture. Also, I agree about this being canon.
i dont think it is canon....
BUT IT SHOULD!!
Fingers crossed 🤞 song and all
Ifonly
I love how they’re supportive of each other instead of hating each other like in the musical
... Was Pearl Pink Diamond's Pearl? It makes you think.
Josie Alyvia I think maybe she belonged to white diamond
XSkyIsHereX well her skin and gem colour is white so it must be, yellow pearl belongs to yellow diamond and blue pearl belongs to blue diamond...but then what happened to pink pearl?
Josie Alyvia It will remain a mystery until further evidence is revealed...well specific evidence that is
Well her color scheme has most white, blue and yellow pearl have their gem where their diamonds gem is, so Pearl has her Gem where white diamonds gem is so most evidence points to her being white diamond pearl
Alexandrite Martin or she could just be another aristocratic gem's pearl
*I hope you're happy, in the end!*
I love when Pearl left Blue Pearl and put on of the rock.
1:42
*distant* THATS MY WIFE, THATS MY WIFE
magix shiz lol😂
Mooooooooood
the drawings at 1:41 masterful!
Holy shit this made me start crying
WHY DID I START CRYING WHILE WATCHING THJS ??!!! LIKE I ACTUALLY STARED CRYING GOD DAMN IT
Not the only one.
Kiko K. Prendergast either rose or how of a good singer she is or the animation
I ADORE this! And every time I watch+listen, I get chills of excitement!
I'm not crying, you are.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. THIS IS AMAZING. I NEED THIS BACKSTORY IN THE SHOW!
