Hey everyone, I finished my biggest animated solo project (up to now)!
‘Raised by Bats’ is one of my most favourite songs by Aurelio Voltaire because to me, the message is ‘Be true to yourself’.
I was bullied throughout my entire childhood due to race, looks, etc.
(living in a small town doesn’t help much, ‘cause everyone knows everyone!)
and my parents would always say: “People will like you more/You will be happier if you don’t dress in black and look like ‘this’ all the time.” and they were… wrong!
Do NOT under any circumstances change yourself for the approval of other people in your life. Improving negative traits and working on yourself is good, friends and family can help you with it but you are your own person and you are worth it. Healing comes with time and if you’re reading this, know that there are people who love you for who you are.
This music video took me a long time to make since I had to put it on hiatus a couple of times due to studies, personal reasons, and then lastly in 2020 when the entire world went into lockdown. But after all of that, I can finally contently close this chapter.
Of course, there are things that I wish I could do over, but at one point you've got to let go.
I learned a lot during the process of this passion project, and I think you can see the developments throughout the video. I hope you enjoy it.
