WARNING: Graphic violence and blood! The title and stuff is at the end, so I couldn't put it in the video, but be careful if that's something you're worried about!
This turned out to be a very ugly animatic, but I'd already recolored it once, so I decided to just roll with it and learn from my mistakes! Next time I'll probably just stick to desaturated tones.
If you have any questions about what's going on or whatever, feel free to leave a comment!
If you couldn't tell, this is heavily inspired by both of dangocheeked's animatics. You know the ones I'm talking about.
Song is My Favorite Things from the Sound of Music movie
Characters are from Mo Dao Zu Shi by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

When it changed from Wei Ying reminding himself of happy things and teaching A-Yuan the same to A-Yuan actually doing it 😭😭

You forget how brutal the first siege would've been. It was cultivators killing innocent people that had nothing to do with Sunshot. The fact you didn't gloss over that hurts but was also so good how you portrayed it. And Lan Zhan being one of both A-Yuan's and Wei Wuxian's favorite things...😭

Ah, one of the things that always, */always/* gets me: The Wen Remnants. I don't think I can ever forget the Cultivation Word for what they did.

Aaah, you have no idea how happy this made me! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I don't think anyone ever forgets the fact that all of the Wen Remnants were killed, but I've never seen anyone really go deep into how bloody that must have been. And I know that A-Yuan was asleep with a fever in canon, but I just thought... what if he wasn't?? And thus this animatic was born 😭😭

me who already knows what's going to happen: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH ;O; ;O; ;O; but seriously you took such a sweet song and made it fit in such horrifying ways with clear connections to the imagery, I applaud you so much GOD seeing jiang cheng show up for so much of the favorite things only for it to end with him leading the charge is so so painful, a-yuan literally mouthing the words of the song, the bee sting shot, the final shot where lwj finds a-yuan but it's like he's just an imaginary good thing after all that horrible stuff is just aarrcCHGGGGGGGGG

AHHHH ABSOLUTE HEARTBREAK. The song choice is so appropriate, it's like the last veneer of happiness hiding the impending tragedy. AND THEN THE TRAGEDY HITS and it's still the happy song and it's just this horribly sad dissonance, BROOOOO that destroyed me. A-Yuan hiding and thinking about WWX being there to comfort him and then the end shot of just heartbroken LWJ discovering him made me tear up for real. Your sense of timing is impeccable and your art is wonderful, thank you very much for sharing this!! I AM IN LOVE WITH IT

AAAAAH DUDE YOUR COMMENT MADE MY DAY!! Thank you so so so so so SO much for this!! All of those feelings are exactly the ones I was trying to invoke, and I'm so glad I succeeded!! YES this song feels like such a weird fit?? But it actually works so well?? I think you're talking about the "Confidence" animatic-- which, yes, absolutely gave me the idea of SoM x MDZS! Originally, I really wanted to make a "Maria" animatic for WWX, but then I started thinking about this one and I absolutely did not have the stamina for two animatics... WHO KNOWS, MAYBE ONE DAY. Anyways, thanks again!!

@@takingasterix omg you are so right, Maria fits WWX so well too. From LWJ's perspective, the line "how do you make her stay and listen to all you say" has so many heartbreaking possibilities lol. Please know if you ever find the time and motivation for it, you will at least have an audience of a very enthusiastic me :p

@@roserocksrapidly nooooo literally, and the part where it's like "when I'm with her, I'm confused, out of focus and bemused, and i never know exactly where i am" is so perfect for a teenage LWJ who doesn't know what the heck he's feeling. aah, thanks!! that actually does make me a little more likely to do it, so good to know :D

In the last three days, I've spent the total of three hours staring at the screen with this video on repeat, and who knows how much longer having it opened on the side while doing other things. I'm obsessed with this animatic a completely normal amount. And don't you dare say anything about it being ugly! It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. The colours are beautiful, the movements are sooo cool (I especially enjoy the hair, it's so simple yet so effective!), the facial expressions are all so amazing and conveys so many emotions, the way you used this cheerful song to show the total devastation of the siege? The way a-Yuan sings it to himself, trying to not fall apart? Just damn, it's a masterpiece in every way and I'm in love

Oh my gosh!! Beautiful video?? More like beautiful comment! Seriously, this made my day, your words are so freaking sweet. 🥺❤ And I'm so glad you liked the use of such a happy song for such a depressing event--that's exactly what I was going for! Aahh, seriously, thank you so much! This animatic feels so long ago to me, it's so cool to see new people finding it and taking enjoyment from it. That's one of the best parts of art, even if I dislike the stuff I make sometime. Hope you have a lovely day!

I was like. what?? but oh god. this hurts. just the dicotomy between the cheerful music vs the horrifying things happening on screen, the subversion of expectations that normally come w this song!!!! AUGHHHH and god the pained look on WWXs face as he tries to be happy for LSZ but remembers all his favorite things are in the past, dead and gone..... fUCK aaaaaaanyway, I love this so so much!! thank you for the gorgeous art and emotional pain this fine morning, I'm gonna share this w all the MDZS fans I know!
