PARNASSIUS | One Week Film
มุมมอง 7K11 หลายเดือนก่อน
Made in one week at CalArts with my very talented friend @ivqks159 ! The concept originally came from a deranged quarry-based story we were both thinking about, and slowly evolved into sad space women. Two days spent writing, one day spent on visdev, two days (and nights) in production. I couldn't have asked for a better creative partner! :D Our awesome friend, @lunely , was also kind enough to...

Wonderful. Absolutely brilliant 😁👏
I don't regret choosing the videogame, no. The chicks turned out okay
lovely
Amazing
This was wonderful
so gorgeous i actually cried!! This was so so cool and will be in my mind FOREVER
i almost cried :_) incredible work!!
Please make this into an actual show
This animation kinda gives me game ending vibes but time traveler definitely suits more
This looks INSANELY good❤❤❤ I loved this so much😭😭😭 Augh I’m in love with this
I teared up so much! The scene where they kissed when the timer is up and they spin with the music- it was beautiful ❤
LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS AAAAAA THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!! I love the art and animation style, the character designs, the banter, the voice acting, and oh lord that whole ending!!!!!! It's so touching and sweet. Kinda gave me Good Omens vibes and mean that in the best possible way, just that feeling of being connected at the soul across timelines, eras, from the heavens to the earth and below. So so so beautifully done ,wow.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!
This concept is one of the reasons I love Legend of Zelda.
Aghhh I’m obsessed this was beautiful
I have never been so utterly in love with a concept as this. Your storytelling is SO refreshing and "in every universe" is always such a beautiful idea, except you've got beautiful colours and gorgeous, individually expressive character designs. You should be so proud of this!! ALSO the interactions and dialogue feel so human and heartwarming too!!!! I feel so inspired as a creator after watching this <33
Didn't feel like 4 minutes. Great work!
CRYING CRYING OHH THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL
Pretty
I thought it would be about Romeo and Juliet at first because of the title lol😭
this is so beautiful beyond words!!! the colors are so calming in the beginning and I love the floating sequence. all the outfits at the end tell their own story and the transition between the paint and the blood is genius. the voices fit the characters very well, they're both so charming. Avery's head blocking the timer at 2:42 is such a great detail. Avery and June's dynamic and persevering romance is so lovely to watch and I want to see more of them so badly!!
I could imagine a full series of these timelines where they get closer and closer to figuring out how to stop their jump, or at very least retain their memories
oh my god the concept is so. aaaaah. the symbolism. the flying embrace. it's heartwrenching and devastating and so adorable and gay help!!!
I love how when he wakes up, he realizes the jar isn’t in his hands anymore and the butterfly lands on his partner’s glasses, over the cracked lens as though healing his sight. 😭
AWWWWW the world building is so good! and I love the art style and the music... love this so much
oh my GOD
This is such a cool concept! I LOVE your animation and colours, you did an amazing job!
girlfriends :)
hi
this needs to be a show
I love how urgent yet calm it feels. I really felt each second go by as the countdown reached zero. The emotions and the character dynamics felt so real, and it was guided by an amazing soundtrack. I love how it also feels like rpg with different scenerios with the level up effects at 0:40 and the different scenerios gone through at the end. The end sequence was especially amazing, it really got me to think about all the different timelines they went through together. Amazing work!!
I LOVED IT😭😭
This was incredible, genuinely made me so emotional. The art is fantastic and the one clip where it rapidly changes between setting as they run into each other so beautiful this whole thing is gorgeous.
Dear rita chen, You are so precious. The choice of pastelish-like colours… The art style that deeply reminds me of Adventure Time, reminding me really of my childhood and brings nostalgia… Those little shimmering stars are sooo familiar to me as well, is that… perhaps from… some Super Mario game or something..? The things you used to collect as a player? Nevertheless, keep it up and never give up, you‘re SO talented and incredible!!
Extra Amazingly Nice 💞
The way I stomped my feet and yelled at the end of this I SWEAR- Great work animator & co. Possibly my favorite student work I've seen
i keep coming back to this short film AAAAAA i love it so much it's so cute and the music and art and voice acting are all so good!!!! (the background art and colors especially are so nice i want to cry)
new favorite short film ever of all time i love this so much
BEAUTIFUL TEARJERKER i love it oh my god gave me chills in such a short amount of time
It's cute. The art is brilliant. At a higher framerate, it would be perfect.
The animation may not be the greatest if I'm being completely honest, but the story is very compelling even though is just a short story. I'd love to see an expanded version of this, it has so much potential.
Gay and making me cry. Shoot. Well done.
My thing is, you're not really spending another life together if you have no memory of a previous life, each time is the first time, as if you've never lived before. They can't appreciate their past lives, I'm curious how they even know that they lose their memories or find each other again. It's no different than strangers meeting unless you view it from the outside and that's still heartbreaking.
BROOOOO WHAT THE FUCK
"Why would I be scared too spend another life with you"
The music and ticking sound in this love story reminds me of Blumiere and Tippi’s theme in Super Paper Mario. Cute cute video
I just meet this oc and i feel like i know them a decade just from this animation keep it up man this is great.
This is STUNNING!! beautiful work!
This is SO CUTE!! Wonderful work!!
I think the art is really beautiful. ❤ Feels like home to me.
