thanks for the feature scratch team :D WARNING: this project has a ton of assets... if your device is slow it may crash Also please don't advertise. If you see an ad, feel free to report it ----- sorry about the extra loading screen but it'll make the first watch so much better the animation ends on the frame "the night belongs to you" ----- song is Euclid by Sleep Token this was a nightmare to (try to) sync the animation to the music.. and its still so laggy im sorry But even though its not perfect this is one of my favorite things i've ever made ----- This took about a month to make.. Almost all of the visual inspiration for this project was in pictures i took irl, though it does mean i end up making half my animations just parallaxes lol I feel like a lot of scratch music animations i see are lyric animation, by which i mean either animating the lyrics literally (like for example if a song says "chair" or "sit down", a chair is animated on the screen), or literal lyric animation where the words move around on the screen And hey that isnt bad, i enjoy doing that sometimes But animations pull me in so much better when there's a story told. When the animation isn't literally reflecting the lyrics, but I can tell there's a story going on, that kind of thing captivates me When I animate, I like to tell a story whose themes reflect the lyrics of the song animated. (one really good example of this in my opinion is Origami by @Toasted-Cheese ) That's what I did with this song - the animation loosely (symbolically) mirrors events in my life, which also reflects the themes of this song Euclid Thats why I chose this song to animate, because not only is it a beautiful song it really hit me with the lyrics and themes I love music!!! Sleep token isnt my favorite band but theyre still really cool Hopefully this animation is cool too! ----- If you’re here, thanks for sticking around and reading all this This project wouldn’t have been possible without the AMV community. There are so many talented animators on Scratch who inspired me to make this, and I would really appreciate it if you could check some of these people out: @___NATETHEGREAT___ @-purbleflame- @AConfusingLifestyl__ @JakobJay @-BirdieAnimates- Or you could take a look at this studio for a greater variety of the community These are just a few of the many incredible people who make amazing animations here -----
