I have an idea for an AU: Elphaba and Fiyero fall in love long before she's invited to meet the wizard. During their time at Shiz University, she helps him with his studies and inspires him to try and avoid being kicked out again. Furthermore, he has serious issues with his parents about how animals are being treated. In time, they graduate.and Fiyero is cut off by her parents, who smuggly point out that since he's graduated, he could find a line of work on his own. When she's invited to meet with the wizard, it's him, not Glinda, whom she invites to join her. And during the big Defying Gravity number, he accepts her offer to join her on the broom. That would be an amazing love story.
I agree! I am crying just looking at this video of the thought of this becoming an animated film! If you showed Wicked to Walt Disney himself, he would have loved it! Plus, it would fulfill Idina Menzel’s wish to reprise her role as Elphaba!
2:32 I love that Glinda uses her powers to give her the cloak. Showing that she’s been practicing since the “ball gown” incident. And also maybe that her powers grow stronger with her emotions too.
How did I only now realize that Glinda used magic to give Elphaba her cape?? I loved that detail, since Glinda should be studying sorcery at this point in the story
@@yay29823in the film, Glinda sees elphaba shivering because the glass window they’re in front of is broken + blowing air on them and so she goes to a little coat rack near them, proceeds to dust off a black cape, and wrap it around her.
1:32 I really like how you came up with a diagetic reason to the swell in Elphaba and Glinda's duet: the broom bucks and they float and twirl around the room as they hold it. It creates a more dynamic and cinematic staging for the sequence than if they just stood there holding it, and their emotions being raw joy and ecstasy as they share this moment of flying together and revel in their potential.
1:34-1:52 was just perfect. I hope that Universal adds that in their movie. Edit: Unfortunately they didn't. But it was still an incredible ending for Part 1.
I saw the movie yesterday, the climax was insane, incredible, but I like some things in this animatic too, the two of them swirling with the broom, Elphaba standing on the poster and adressing the citizens. The flames and putting the broom down when singing "meee down" How absolutely wonderful it would be indeed to see this animated for real.
Now that’s what I called Defying Gravity, this animatic is very good and very extraordinary, they should make a full video of this, Wicked just keeps getting better and better, still the best musical, good job 👍 to the person who made this, Kristin and Idina and Original Broadway Cast is still the best, can’t wait to see the musical in the movies 🎥 when they open back up, 🎶and no one’s gonna bring them down, ha’ahhhhh🎶🎶
Did I cry watching this even after seeing the broadway show live and the new movie? Yes. This one hit so well. Centering the clock tower as the backdrop of Glinda's side of the discussion at 0:30 was a great way to show the urgency of the situation and permanent impact of their quick choice. Same with burning the banner at 4:03. Great parallel to opening number.
Okay so two things I'm OBSESSED with... the look on Glinda's face at 2:30 is portraying so many intense and complex feelings. It's a masterclass in character drawing. And I love how you incorporated the iconic broom lifting moment for Elphaba at 3:57. Such a clever and unexpected choice to make her stop flying for a second and find a natural way to justify that moment, with a huge visual payoff. That's the kind of choice that I hope the director of the actual film is smart and brave enough to make.
That was SO cool. This is why I really think Wicked would be so much better in 2-D animated form than an in-person film adaptation...because movie musicals are just not cutting it nowadays. And this is coming from someone who loves musicals.
Brilliant!!!! Pure storytelling!!! You honor the characters in every moment of this and their personalities shine through. Your subtleties are incredible! There is never a wasted moment, and you do a great job of having the characters show us what they're thinking before they make their decisions. Also! When Glinda levitates with Elphaba! SO good!!!
Yes! Yes! Yes!!! This is exactly what the scene should look like when it gets to the screen for sure. Lots of the moments you created match my fantasy and you even made me cry. This song has so many emotional Beats and you hit each one of them on the nail, breaking away from the limitations of staging. I loved the broom flying around them, i loved the backlit silhouette in "i hope you're happy", i love how joyful you drew Glinda when Elphaba leaves, and that triumphant flight is glorious.
Disney, I think one of your storyboard artists escaped again😂 But fr tho, you really SNAPPED with this animatic. You should be proud of yourself sir/ma'am👏 The view count may be low (I blame the terrible youtube algorithm tbh), but I hope this doesn't discourage you from posting more animatics like this in the future. Because honestly, I'm not even exaggerating this animatic seems like it was made by a professional storyboard artist with years of experience. Waiting for the day your channel blows up❤️
Can-Can we put you in charge of an animated movie of Wicked? This was so amazing! It truly felt like the stage play in the most perfect way! The designs of the characters, the expressions, the camera angles, and so much more! All just so amazing! 🤩 I don’t understand why you only have 432 subscribers! You’re extremely underrated!
this is absolutely amazing. I'm so glad that you put in when Glinda reaches her hand out towards Elphaba. That is such a crucial detail that's in the performance that's important to Glinda and Elphaba's relationship.
You wanna know something I just realized. The melody in “dreams the way we planned them if we work in tandem” is the same as “the newly celebrated or the rehabilitated” in Wonderful, creating a parallel between Elphie’s offer to Glinda and the Wizard’s offer to Elphie.
I normally don’t comment under animatics, but this deserves one for sure! The amount of chills I got while watching, and felt the emotions, the facial exprsssions were so well made- got goosebumps halfway through, and then up till the very end! Amazing animatic❤️if wicked has a animated movie, this would fit perfectly, it’s really good🥹🥹brought tears to my eyes TvT
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! When Elphaba floats through the clouds singing 'tell them how I am defying gravity...' was a moment that sent shivers down my spine, you captured the song and characters perfectly, it was also a perfect transition from stage to screen! CONGRATS!
Really hope the movie will capture the flying climax of Defying Gravity as amazing as this storyboard animation, fingers crossed! :) And I love that you gave the boom a personality when once it's enchanted
You should share this with Jon M Chu. He’s directing the film adaptation of the musical. The first two castmembers have been confirmed. Ariana Grande as Glinda. Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba.
I GOT CHILLS ALL OVER, OH MAN? I LOVE THE VISION YOU HAVE FOR THIS!!! YOUR COMPOSITIONS ARE SO STRONG! LOVE THE STORYTELLING JUST TOLD FROM THE ANGLES aaaa and the "well, where are your wings???" KNOCKED ME OFF MY CHAIR LAUGHING
Como esto no tiene más views?! ESTABA ESPECTACULAR QUIERO VER MÁS DIOS MÍO ES MI PARTE Y CANCIÓN FAVORITA DE WICKED IDINA MEZEL LA REINA SIEMPRE!!! TREMENDO TRABAJO!! 👏👏👏👏
When I saw this, I felt happiness 😃and sadness😢. Happy knowing that Elphabe was never wicked, had a strong friendship with Glinda, and had pure intentions. But it makes me sad to see her being seen as a bad guy instead of a hero, while the real wicked one (The Wizard) is a living illusion. This makes me want part 2 to come very soon. If there is anyone who agree’s, please like or leave a comment. Please
i’ve watched this enough times that i feel like i owe it to leave a comment, even though other people have already said my thoughts. but this is like… by far and wide the best defying gravity, possibly wicked animatic there is. i found it after watching Wicked live for the first time and as someone who loves musicals but is kinda bad at the “visualizing a song more than the general stage performance allows” this managed to encapsulate the vibes of the song, the joy, the freedom, every part you did you captured PERFECTLY and now i can’t imagine this song in any other way… like… not an expression when i say the animation from every part after “it’s me!” gives me GOOSEBUMPS…. it just… is so good, so incredible, the scene where she flies between the towers, her falling through the clouds, THE PAN WITH “THE WIZARD OF OZ: YOUR SAVIOR” ….. it’s just. perfect.
I keep coming back to this whenever i see it. its beyond amazing! This must've taken so long but my goodness it is so worth it. I've never seen such an incredible animatic for defying gravity. I applaud you! This is absolutely breathtaking! I got chills the first time i watched it
So this animatic just ruined any chance the new live action movie may have had xD love everything about it and yeah, I agree: Wicked deserves to be animated
this deserves more views--i feel like yours and another adventure time animatic are the only ones that truly capture the essence of this song, its characters, and just the overall energy! i feel like your art style also matches the show in general and i love it! i especially love the scenes when theyre flying--the perspective changes are just *chefs kiss* (lowkey hoping youll release the final product but this is honestly already so good in of itself)
Just saw this after seeing Wicked live for the first time, and the movie this last month. I want to tattoo this video on my body, seriously. Why can’t we have more animated things 😭 I would give my left leg for this in full ❤❤

When are they going to make a Wicked animated feature film?! They should hire you as the story boards director or better yet the animation artist department. Maybe Sergio Pablos Studios could make it with your help. I mean they did the Despicable Me franchise and Klaus.
I’ve never seen Wicked but I heard It’s good. Wicked is kinda like Frozen, Now that I think about it. Both have Idina Menzel as the main Character and It’s about sisters and It’s about a Misunderstood Main character.
I want to see an AU where Glinda goes 'Oh yeah ok let's go'. It would be the most amazing story ever.

@@joshuatewolde1837 I think we should consider alternative options.
When she burnt the banner...[growl/groan] too good
it's insane how close this is to the movie adaptation of this song... THEY BETER CREDIT THIS MASTERPIECE
I just got back from watching the film and I’ll admit , I almost teared up when defying gravity started
@ethandoyle4978 me too!
the elevation of the both of them holding onto the broom . . . that is perfect and if any film adaptation doesn't have it I WILL RIOT.
riot.
@CarvedPumpkin1 it is time
That’s so upsetting them rising makes the scene way better than them just standing
John Chu agreed with you LOL
Its amazing how it almost looks like the current movie

2:32 I love that Glinda uses her powers to give her the cloak. Showing that she’s been practicing since the “ball gown” incident. And also maybe that her powers grow stronger with her emotions too.
How did I only now realize that Glinda used magic to give Elphaba her cape?? I loved that detail, since Glinda should be studying sorcery at this point in the story

I really like how you came up with a diagetic reason to the swell in Elphaba and Glinda's duet: the broom bucks and they float and twirl around the room as they hold it.
It creates a more dynamic and cinematic staging for the sequence than if they just stood there holding it, and their emotions being raw joy and ecstasy as they share this moment of flying together and revel in their potential.
Elphaba:quick get on
Glinda:what?...
That climax was so close to the movie it’s insane!! And the part where they floated together was the perfect touch 🥹🥹🥹
1:34-1:52 was just perfect. I hope that Universal adds that in their movie.
Edit: Unfortunately they didn't. But it was still an incredible ending for Part 1.
YOOO THIS IS THE SMOOTHEST ANIMATIC I'VE SEEN YET AND I'M GOING INSANE!!!! THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, THE FOCUS SHIFT!! *chefs kiss *
Also where did you find the audio?! it's so clean!
