This should be used for the series finale.

Fun fact: This guy will be working on the actual show!

Stephen Hillenberg really did give us the best childhood ever, may that amazing man rest in eternal peace.

This video is obviously a love letter to the series. Not just the first three seasons but the WHOLE story and world of these characters. I think that’s beautiful considering people often get caught up in what the show “was” or “could have been” as opposed to finding joy in what the show has become. People often reject the modern trends of spongebob including the new characters and art style but this video embraces it and uses it to its full potential

if the series ever does end, it should end with an adaptation of the musical. just imagine the show cast singing the musical's songs!

the song itself was already wonderful but this animatic just,,,, oh my god i dont know how to put it into words??? the way you captured the tone of the cartoon to a T? the way you used the side/background characters?? the way you had Squidward act and eventually warm up by the end of the song???? tHE EVERYTHING?????? THIS IS AMAZING??????????

Dang, you had me tearing up near the end up this but then the "In memory of Stephen Hillenburg" really got me. What a beautiful tribute that captures the show perfectly. Wonderfully creative, heartfelt, and -- dare I say it -- of a professional caliber. Well done. 💛

If you told me this was done by the people who actually work on the show, I would 100 percent believe you. I just don’t have any words for how spectacular this is!

After seeing this, I really wish they'd hire you as a storyboard artist on the show. This is very spot on!

I legit thought this was officially for the show or upcoming movie!

the absolute best part was at

I AM ACTUALLY CRYING. this looks exactly like the storyboards from the show, and furthermore, it looks AMAZING and wholesome. ITS A MASTERPIECE :')

i love how you perfectly replicated the modern spongebob artstyle and making it a storyboard

Wow. I simply don't have the proper words to describe just how legendary this animatic is. It's one of the best things that I have ever seen. This genuinely looks like an animatic from modern SpongeBob in the best way possible, with the zany expressions and expressive movements of the characters. I love how you used so many of these iconic characters that we all know and love, even the minor background characters, and that ending is very powerful. You perfectly captured everything that I love about the show and created a beautiful masterpiece. Fantastic job!

You not only nailed the character looks and mannerisms. But these sequences are so SpongeBobby

this is so splendid! you single handedly captured the playful yet heartfelt tone of the series with your boarding-- the visual gags were amazing too, it really made me feel like I was watching a musical number from the show. both the show and the musical have this lighthearted air of sentimentality that culminates in this number, and I think you've done it justice perfectly-- the ending particulary got me very emotional. Amazing job!

This animatic captures the spirit of the show so incredibly well, it makes me want an animated adaptation of the musical even more :,) Fantastic work!!

Real men cry when Squidward joins in.

Your little visual jokes really do capture the tone of the show. From puns, to objects coming to life, even to confused old men.

Cute reference to the "Best Day Ever" episode towards the end there at
