- This is an old animatic that I cleaned up. I’m really proud of it. I know most of you subscribe for dream smp stuff, but take this until then.

Oh my gosh I already absolutely adore this song but this is just such a genius use of it wow!!! There are so many genius details and first of all I wanted to just say how beautiful it is and how well it flows together with the colors and movement. But secondly the connection between the lyrics and the emotions is so amazing I want to analyze and discuss them. (Maybe it’s because I know all the words to this song but anyways)
One very specific thing I love are the different uses of “Where the hell is the karma?” First it’s for just for the overall tired feel Thomas has even before all the conflict. Then it’s used by Janus to show the feeling of not being listened to. He’s helping and being good but they shove him aside and call him evil. And THEN Virgil said it in reference to Remus as in “why does he keep getting away with this?!” So it’s like bad karma in contrast with Januses good deeds. Lastly it’s in reference to the theme of the original episodes about doing something just to do good and morals and karma that Patton insists on.
Now I wanna go over more little moments that I adore and that hurt me way too much because I don’t think I’m capable of a full analysis. I love how the “Everything’s fine” moment is given to Patton because that’s so perfect for his actions in that episode. And then the chorus hits and we get this beautiful moment of reflection with all of the sides when they feel like they have done everything right and still failed! Logan at being helpful, Patton at always being happy and friendly and then comes Roman. That’s honestly my favorite little moment in the entire thing. The flash of green in him on “Why am I feeling empty?!” That’s such a genius thing filled with pain and irony because maybe even he knows why and is still pushing on with this emptiness of not having his brother by his side.
And Virgil reflecting of his redemption because he’s not sure the amount of “good” he does. That’s just painful, but I’m a good way.
I love the use of color as a way to show stability and sanity (I think that’s how we’re meant to internet that) and then how it’s stripped away with the appearance of Remus. The words in that align perfectly with the massage of the episode again with the “Am i crazier than other patients?” line. Amazing!
And then how Logan helps for a bit but then we see in the flashes that Logic can’t fix everything which we can see with every side turned away on the wedding because none of them can really help him in this state. That’s poetic as hell!
The only thing I don’t get is what is referenced at 0:59. I know it’s pre-AA but I don’t get what moments exactly since right after Virgil the frame with Ro is the era 2 costume. So I’m confused in that but the rest is so good I don’t have enough words to describe it. Overall I just love this so much. You’re truly amazing and I can’t wait for more!
Omg thank u so much!! Reading this brought me so much joy! And as for 0:59 they’re suppose the sides general attitudes pre-AA I just drew the wrong costume for Roman! Logan- being helpful PATTON-providing positivity and ROMAN and VIRGIL: are antagonizing each other. I’m so glad that u picked apart my work and got everything right! That’s so cool! Thank u!
@@publicspamaccount thank you thank you!!! Im very happy u responded!!!
I know right, this is such a good animatic! Also, I really love how they have the use of orange at the start. As we all know, the orange Sanders Side is the last to reveal themselves and there are HUNDREDS of theories about them. But just having the colour orange at the start and in Patton's glasses etc is just so aesthetically pleasing and so much attention to detail. The orange side could almost be something like disappointment, confusion, regret or suppression of feelings. I think that having the orange side as being something like confusion or regret would be really interesting. As the whole episode this animatic is based off, it is all about regret: Thomas regretting going to the weeding and not choosing the callback. I feel that this might be brung up a lot, as none of the sides have anything to do with regret.
Edit: Also, in the animatic it also shows Janus in orange so it's not like he's a part of regret either. And also instead of having orange as regret, but rather confusion would go really well with the story. All the light sides have a dark side, but we don’t know what Logan's is yet. So, having orange rather as confusion like in the lyrics 'I've been so good, but it's still getting harder, I’ve been so good where the hell is the karma?!' Shows obvious confusion rather than regret. All of the characters are confused it literally says ‘I’m NOT SURE why I booked today's appointment' when Patton puts on the glasses WHICH ARE ORANGE?!?
I really don’t know, I’m sorry this comment is so long, I’m a bit of a ranter. But this animatic is soooooooo good, and having the thoughts that the orange side could be something like Confusion or Regret would go so well with the story as well as every Side's personality, especially Logan.
Ahh amazing analysis! Question, what does pre-AA mean? I’m gonna rewatch all of his vids either way but I was wondering if could get an answer here 😅
@@spice102 everything that comes before the “Accepting Anxiety” episodes.
Still. Can. Not. Get. Over. This. Masterpiece.
I'm glad in not the only one who keeps coming back to this video. It deserves way more recognition. The visuals are absolutely phenomenal
All the tiny details really make this animatic gold
Same honestly. Whenever I hear Karma now, all I can think about is this animatic
This animation and the series is a masterpiece!
....ThOmAs!?
THOMAS SANDERS SAW THIS ON TWITTER!!! I REPEAT!! THE TOMAS SANDERS SAW THIS !!!!,
I'M PROUD OF UUUUU
Seriously you deserve it, I can tell how much thought and effort you put into this
YOU TOTALLY DESERVE IT!!! This is beyond incredible! I just watched it for the 3rd time!!!
Among so many other things, your use of color immediately is fantastic. You've done what no other animation has done: hook me instantly. The jarring change in color within the first shot grabs viewers attention and eyes right away. Seriously, the way you use color to represent emotions here is OUTSTANDING. If I taught a Color Theory class, I'd use this in it!
YAY!!!!! AHHH I AM SO HAPPY, HE NEEDED TO SEE IT, IT IS A MASTERPIECE! It celebrates the plot of Sanders Sides so well!!
Sanders Sides is exactly what this economy needs
EXACTLY
?????
Yeah, I'm going to have to agree. Sanders Sides is what is keeping this economy alive.
Yes
AMEN
"here before the premier but will probably still miss the premier" button
Yep T-T
Lol yeah
Yeahh
Pov: your losing your mind because this is so good and no one is talking about it
Absolutely right! Just discovered it and I can't stop rewatching
There are just so many details!
EVERYTHING IS SO SMOOTH WTF?!? THE TRANSITIONS. THE COLORS. WAGH YOU’RE SO TALENTED THIS IS AWESOME!!
Ohmygodtheyhearteditthisisawesome
I haven't been in the ss fandom for months, but I'll dip my toes back in for a little, just for this :]
Don't mind me imma just wait to drag you right back in
same anajsjs
How did so many of us just collectively fall out of the fandom? Those were good times
@@nooneinparticular306 well we gonna drag you back in
@@nooneinparticular306 uploads are so spread out, even tho it’s understandable it’s sorta hard to stay when you don’t get content all that often
If your last Sanders Sides video and recent animatic is anything to go off of, This is going to be epic!
AGREED!
I think that one of the most beautiful details is this (and that's saying a lot because this is WAY TOO GOOD) is when Thomas holds onto Logan for support, he goes to Logic for answers. Logic is the thing we most rely on whether we like it or not, it's our anchor to reality and our knowledge of the world, when we feel lost or don't understand something and we want answers we go to our logic, I thought it was a really nice detail.
Also I'm always in for emotional Logan
YES
A part of me is sobbing bc is Karma and Sanders Sides, and the other part is like HOLY SMOKES LOOK AT THOSE COLORS!! THOSE TRANSITIONS!! THIS IS SO AWESOME
THE TRANSITIONS, COLOURING AND EVERYTHING OVERALL WAS JUST FANTASTIC!!! 💖
What in the HELL? This is so good?? So detailed? The animation is so vivid, the colors so perfect? It really captures everything?? Holy cow, speechless.
This is in my top ten favourite animatics of all time. The colors and the bounciness of the animation and how the music goes with the story- it’s PERFECT! I can’t believe I hadn’t found this until recently and I come back to watch it every week ✨✨You’re such an inspiration as an animator
I hesitate to call this an animatic. Animatics are clunky. Animatics feel unfinished. Animatics rarely have color. Animatics are the promise of a more complete project, and don’t tend to stand out as works of art themselves. This feels complete already. This is bursting with color and clever decision making. This is so damn smooth. This isn’t an animatic. It’s stylized animation. It’s art. And it is SO well done
Well, this is still an animatic. It's extremely well done, there is fluid movement and it's coloured wonderfully, however there's a lot of jagged or loose lines and it isn't anime quality. This isn't something you would see on TV. However, it's not on TV. It's on TH-cam and it is wonderful. I can't draw half this well. The thing is your definition of an animatic as being unfinished or clunky makes it seem like the people who do animatics aren't trying their best, or it isn't good work. I think you should try and word things a little better so you don't come off as rude to other people who have worked just as hard as this creator.
I'm with Ian on this one, this is animation
It's still an animatic, it's just a STELLAR one. Calling it an animatic doesn't put it down because animatics aren't lesser anyway, it just depends on the artist and what they do with the animatic
My jaw hit the floor, this is honestly hands down the COOLEST animatic i have seen to date, from the colours to just the expressions this is such a clever use of the song, I tip my hat to you.
something really hits me about 2:00 on. it conveys perfectly the emotion of having made a decision that wasn't good for you when you thought you were making the right choice, and having to live with that decision afterwards. there's the catharsis of finally having processed what has happened and how to go from there, but also the realization of every single step you will have to go through from here will be so much harder than if you had not made that decision. its the moment right after you've fallen off the bridge and there's nothing to do about it but wait until you hit the water, and then after you hit the water there's nothing you can do to get back onto the bridge, so you're in the water now and you're not sure how long you'll have to keep swimming for to get out. genuinely I have no idea how you convey all these emotions in this animatic, there's so many great moments-all the indecision and tension of the judge scene, the relief when thomas opens his eyes and all the colors go back to normal, also the use of EYES is incredible-but this stuck out to me this time on my rewatch. incredible, incredible art :)
OKAY I JUST SAW THIS BUT THE SCENE WHERE LOGAN JUST SMILES AND HUGS THOMAS?! IM CURRENTLY SOBBING IN LIKE THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE,,,,
The use of color was mind-blowing and the animations themselves made me feel shrimp emotions. God this was everything. Oh my goodness.
The use of orange colouring in this feels very intentional. It’s shown in Sanders Sides that the orange colour in the eyes and the motif of orange is used when someone is angry and overwhelmed by emotion, and during the court scene the orange is everywhere, but specifically in the eyes and words spoken.
I also like that it’s Janus asking “Where’s the karma?” Because he really is just looking out for Thomas’ best interest.
1:03 HOLY MOLY THAT HEAD TURN!!! WOW
I ADORE the use of color in this IT LOOKS SO COOL
I’ve never heard this song before but I feel like I have a new daydream song so thx!!
10/10 absolutely incredible
A SANDERS SIDES ANIMATIC!! IN THIS ECONOMY!!!
Edit: IT WAS AMAZING!!
Holy COW! This is utterly gorgeous loving the use of the striking colors and the use of perspective shots really capture the emotions of the other sides. Great work!
the premiere hasn't even begun yet but i KnOw ThIS oNe'S gONnA bE gOoD
I swear I love this song it has so much representation and its very retable to real life situations and every time when you listen to the lyrics it just keeps opening up your mind of how it defines of what you’re going through and believe me it hits hard alot...
Uh I’ll stop talking now oof-
Same though it hits so hard
"I've been so good but it's still getting harder"
Why does it represent so much my life...
I can't get enough of your characterizations here, from how well their designs work, to your entire portrayal of Deceit (My favorite), every element of this animatic does such a good job of telling a story.
Also, I like that Patton kind of looks like your Martin, it just makes a lot of sense to me.
Seriously incredible degree of effort, in every project you do, and it shows!
how am i just now realizing that youre the one who did the dsmp animatics AND THIS ONE holy crap; this is my favorite sanders sides animatic full stop and you did some of my favorite dsmp ones!! ahh!!
I've been taking a break from this fandom and the series for a while now, I've been starting to miss it lately though. And now this appears in my recommended page 24 mins after its premiere. Could this be a sign? :O
its a sign
EMBRACE THE FANDOM
0:45 This animation sequence KILLS ME it is SO GOOD I CAN'T EVEN
0:55 I had to pause/play to see what was going on and the parallels and aaaaaaaaa Virgil DX
1:05 All the rotating scenes are so gorgeous and incredibly animated and I love the squiggle effect and snaps back and forth between the sides like ugg I can't even this is so good

1:19 Thomas and Virgil listening to musc, my heart DX
1:23 This effs me up every dang time I see it is so jarring and so good and so intense and I love it

2:06 AND THE DARK SHADOWS AND THE DETAIL AND AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA DX
The lighting in this entire animatic is so so so good and beautiful!
returned back to this animation to see if it was as spectacular as i remember it.... and it IS!!!! Everything about this is so AMAZING!! I cant tell you how many times ive rewatched this, but i can tell you that every single time i have, ive been blown away. Each and every time. This piece of art continues to amaze me. The movement, the animation, the character designs, the pacing, the colors, the composition... AND THE ENDING!!! I ALWAYS FORGOT THAT ENDING AND I ALWAYS LOSE MY MIND!!! All of them surrounding thomas, looking away as he sits there, alone. Jesus christ, way to rip my heart out every single time. I'm not sure i'll ever stop coming back to this.
the use of colors, the perspective, angles, how dynamic this is, GOD THE EVERYTHING AND THE CONSTANT MOVEMENT OF IT ALL
EVEN THE PUPILS ARE IN CONSTANT MOTION??????
gonna reference and break this down to help with learning animation 👍
12/10, best thing i've ever seen this year
This is genuinely one of the best animatics I"ve seen out of anything. The transitions and color choices were absolutely perfect. 10/10
My love of animation has brought me here. Here has brought me to this Sander Sides. I have watched the first video of the Sander Sides. I've enjoyed it muchly. Hopefully if I continue I will not only get further enjoyment from that series but also from the greater understanding of this video. I have something to look forward to for the weekend, thank you.
The 2 epiodes potray in this animatic are "Selfishness vs selflessness" and "Dealing with intrusives thought".
But keep watching the episodes in order to get the full Sanders sides experience
I feel like this is more of a prediction than anything. One of these days everyone is just gonna go absolutely FERAL on each other and it's gonna be nuts. I really love your style and the use of this song. It's fantastic. The song is great, the animation is great, the whole story is great. I love it SO much.
Premier gang POG! Back into the sander sides fandom baby lets gooo
The ROTATING CAMERA ANGLES THO, the COLOURS! This is incredible, mad kudos!
THIS IS SO WELL TIMED, and the way everything MOVES GOD THE CHARACTERS THE SIMPLE PREMISE THE STORYTELLING GOD A MIGHTY ITS SO GOOD!!
this song works so perfectly what ???? and the transitions and the colors and everything, dang this is incredible
Okay so I'm probably just going to overanalyze this, but I really love this!
So, the first shot is Thomas at the trial, in the witness stand. From there, there's a (beautiful) transition to him sitting on his bed, looking pretty upset. This is the aftermath of the trial, as seen by when he glanced at the clothes beside him on the bed. We then see him putting on the shirt, adjusting his tie, and running a hand through his hair, then leaning over a sink looking thoroughly upset, a clue to him not being fully behind the decision to go to the wedding. We zoom out from behind, seeing his phone, showing it's the 13th of April, with an orange notification, reading "Wedding" and a blue notification saying "Callback". Then we see the dates March 13th 2020, February 24th 2020, January 1st 2020, December 14th 2019, and November 3rd, 2019, showing that we're going back in time to the trial, which is super clever. We spin into the phone screen, coming out with Thomas at the stand, March 19th, 2019, 11:32 displayed behind his head. He looks worried, eyes shifting from side to side as the date and time fade, most likely looking to Patton and Deceit, before dropping his head, appearing resigned. He asks "Why are you asking me why?" And we see that, in a very clever way, he's been put on the spot, with this bright spotlight shining on him while Patton and Deceit watch. We see Deceit looking very smug, a show of how he thinks that they will listen to him and choose the callback after Thomas's confession. Patton looks alarmed, and worried, and his posture is screaming "fight or flight", with the tensed shoulders and closed fists. We cut to Virgil next, on guard and cutting himself off with his arms folded and shoulders raised, in a similar way to Patton, but there's more quiet disbelief in his face. We see Logan, looking frustrated, possibly from the lack of accuracy or their ignorance of his knowledge. We go back to Thomas, looking exhausted and hurt looking, saying his days and nights are full of disappointment as we zoom in. As we zoom in, he looks panicked, closing his eyes last second, before we cut to a guilty Roman, possibly guilty because no matter his choice, someone will be upset. Virgil standing, hands on the railing, obviously angry. We see Deceit and Patton again, spotlight still on Thomas. Deceit is still holding himself high, but Patton has slumped over, and looks defeated. The (smooth as hell) transition to his face shows he's worried, staring at Thomas, before glancing to Deceit, possibly worried about his influence. We cut to Deceit, looking calm and collected, before glaring at Patton. It's a war of morals between those two. Deceit points an accusatory finger, and Patton is quick to jump to Thomas's defense, slamming his hands on the table. Deceit's hands are curled and clenched, he's shouting, angry that Patton could be so blind about what needs to be done. Patton's upset face is in frame for a split second before Thomas is asking if Patton is fine. Patton looks surprised, then upset, but says he's fine, putting on a smile, acting like the usual happy pappy Patton. Thomas looks disbelieving, and Patton, with a guilty look on his face, says the line "I'm not sure why I booked today's appointment", turning away from Thomas, a hint to how he's not sure how to handle Deceit, as shown by his glasses reflecting and showing Deceit as a monster. Another bad*ss transition, and we see Deceit, Roman, and Logan, Deceit with his arms spread wide, Logan glaring down (so impressive you managed to show his disdain without eyes!) with the judge and witness stand sliding backwards, giving us a wonderful sense of depth. We see Logan now, cool under pressure, calmly saying his piece [I been so good, I've been helpful-], but bowing his head, getting frustrated, a tear going down his cheek, showing his frustration with how being helpful and courteous is getting him nowhere, still zooming in to his hair, transitioning to Patton saying "and friendly", before bowing his head in grief, showing how his world of black and white morals where he was the one everyone could to is starting to crumble, cutting to Roman saying "I been so good, why am I feeling empty?", looking conflicted and upset, flashing from orange to green, showing hints to his upcoming conflict with Remus, putting his head in his hands as we (cha cha real smooth that's a good transition) transition to Virgil in the same pose, saying "I been so good-" seeing his eyes showing his panicked and scared over everything that's happening, before looking resentful, wishing to go back to the past, where we see him teasing one of the others, pre Accepting Anxiety, to him now angrily shouting, most likely "You literally know him as Deceit!" then Roman dramatically pointing, a large smile on his face, to him now, looking grim as he slams the gavel. Logan, smiling as he says something, to Logan now, looking grim and nervous and upset, arms folded tightly. Patton, from genuinely happy to now putting a mask on. We zoom out from Patton's grimacing face, he's on the witness stand, saying "I've been so good, but it's still getting harder", looking more and more upset, curling in on himself, before practically belting "harder", sitting up right, showing that his brave face is faltering. Hard. The camera spins to behind his head, now showing Deceit, telling us "I been so good, where the hell is the karma?!" Obviously angry at something, but what, I can't tell, throwing his arm to the side where we follow to see Thomas's scared eyes, that scrunch up in sadness, as Patton, again, stares in disbelief, before seemingly starting to cry, as we go back to the stand where Thomas is borderline shouting, before putting his head into his hands, crying as we whip back to a clam Deceit, leaning against his stand, opening his eye as we see a tearful Thomas staring at the stand. We're nearing the end of the trial, and it's not looking good for anyone. Roman, beside Thomas, going from angry, to guilty "How can I choose? Someone will be upset with me no matter what" before he makes up his mind, and the gavel is slammed, taking us into a breathtaking transition, Deceit looking dumbfounded at the results of the trial, into a dumbfounded Thomas on the couch. The trial is over. But at what cost? Roman puts a hand on Thomas's shoulder, obviously hoping to comfort, but Thomas doesn't seem to be comforted. He stares at Roman, before looking away sadly, but he does give Roman a small smile, which is a wonderful detail. We slide to the Dark Sides, where Deceit is leaning against a doorframe, to a sideshot, showing him looking upset. When he lifts his head, we get a seamless transition to Thomas in the same position, apparently saying something is wrong. Then he's baking cookies with Patton. But they're both worried looking. He's reading, Logan over his shoulder. Logan is tense and Thomas is still worried. Listening to music with Virgil, Virgil looks calm but Thomas looks like he's having a midlife crisis. Now we're back to Deceit, looking defeated, but then determined and angry, pushing himself into the domain of The Duke. We come back to Thomas on Tumblr, looking at a post from Mary Lee about her wedding, before he turns off his phone, looking down at it sadly, before looking to the side
(I may finish this, maybe not 😅)
Omg, this is such a great observation!! I agree with you, and the details tell so much!
I would love to see the rest of your interpretation :D
@@leticiagraca1099 The nightmare is beginning. Thomas looks scared and in pain as he's jerked around by this terrifying nightmare, before flashing through several gruesome scenes, all showing how Thomas becomes worried for his sanity. We zoom out to him standing fearfully in his living room, blood on the walls and a framed sharp grin behind his head. A flash of Remus and Roman is falling to the floor, his crown rolling away only to be crushed by Remus, who gives it and us a feral look. Thomas looks alarmed, Virgil recoils in disgust and confusion, Patton looks worried, and Logan looks almost bored. We see more scenes of the Duke's making, with blood and weapons and tentacles, before we look down on everyone gathered below. Thomas is clutching his head, he looks scared witless, but he looks up. Virgil is yelling, saying this is wrong and they need to *fight* Remus, but Logan calmly objects and says there's nothing wrong with Remus, as long as the thoughts are not acted upon. Patton is raising his hands in surrender, possibly asking "Why can't we just ignore him?" (Patton, honey, intrusive thoughts are like feelings. They don't just disappear) And now Remus is interjecting with his own thoughts. His eyes are wild, daring someone to try and stop him, Virgil is angry that he's even here, Patton is scared, and Logan is fed up with them not listening. Thomas is watching this, mind spiralling, blood beginning to leak from his head, a possible reference to Logan being hit. He's standing there, shellshocked, as Remus bombards him with thoughts and jokes that he can't shake. He looks ready to break down. {Another thing to note here is that the colors scheme has changed, from a blue and orange theme to a harsh red and green with black, an unsettling color scheme fitting for the situation.} "Right!" Patton feels he's failed Thomas, and he's cracking under the weight of his own mask. Virgil and Logan looked shocked, a reaction that's understandable given Patton's reluctance to ever admit feeling upset. "I've done everything right?" We go to Remus, who looks like a horror game character in a fitting way, picking his nose and flinging it at Virgil, a sign of his boredom. But in turn, Virgil snaps at Logan, for once asking his input, only for it to be ignored. Logan looks startled, but then upset, as Virgil is taking a very accusing tone to him. Remus looks to the camera, showing interest in the situation now, before we see Thomas. All the Sides look guilty as Thomas says he's been good and working his ass off. When Thomas says he's lonely, Virgil cringes, looking at Patton, who uncurls slightly, possibly from reassurance of 'Virgil doesn't hate me.' But then we get a scene like a breath of fresh air, Logan smiling, hand on Patton's shoulders, with bright welcoming colors that come with nostalgia and the relief of the horror show of Remus being gone. Thomas now steps forward, and falls into Logan's embrace. Logan clutches onto Thomas, looking very determined before we see a clip of Thomas at the callback, then Thomas holding Logan just as tight. Another shot of the callback, then Thomas still hugging Logan. He's holding onto Logic, he's clinging to the one constant in this insanity. But now we see him playing Candy Crush at the wedding, and then the 'what if you were out, chasing your dreams instead' with more flowers. A sideshot lasting for maybe a second of him back on the stand, before smiling at Lee and Mary Lee, holding his champagne so tight his hands shake. But even still, the Sides are all turned away at the end, all fighting their own fights, and forgetting to help the most important person between them. Thomas.
This is one of best fan animations I have ever SEEN and I will always come back to it.
I'm being told by a friend who is a fan of this series it's neat, however as someone that can just appreciate your work it looks great as always!
my skin is clear, my crops are watered, my day has been made, this animatic is so damn GOOD, i always come back to it
As Thomas would say, “HOLY SHMOKES!”
ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE ANIMATICS IVE EVER SEEN TNIS IS SO AMAZING OH MY GOODNESS. ESPECIALLY THE COLOURS, LIKE, ✨WOW✨
COLORS COLORS COLORS COLORS-
ALSO YOURE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT IN THIS ECONOMY??? A GEM
This is my first time coming back to this in awhile, still as mesmerized by it as I was when it came out, sort of nostalgic
my bro, homie, whatever you prefer, how do you produce so many animations so quickly. how
i watched this three years ago and just came back to it today. i absolutely think this is the BEST sanders sides animation ever. The colors are so stylized and work so well and all of the little details are so perfect. Thomas doing everyday tasks with each of the sides makes me feel so warm inside. The pacing is perfect and the story is immaculate. This is gorgeous.
Ok, as a MCYT and a Sanders Sides fan, your content is EXACTLY what I needed in this economy! Great job!!
this is so cool!!! i love the way colors change with the mood and there are little snippets of memories with full real colors, GAH just beautiful!! not even mentioning how smooth and Alive every frame is
Holy shit
This is
I'm speechless, It's so good!
You've got a new subscriber
I'm sorry what?!?? THAT WAS AMAZING THE SEQUENCE IN THE MIDDLE WHERE IT WAS TRANSITIONING BETWEEN THE SIDES WAS SO SMOOTH AND JUST,, EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS GORGEOUS!!!!!!
I adore this! You captured each of them + their expressions + scenes regarding each character extremely well. Each line was just perfectly assigned to each character?? i swear i had to constantly pause this to admire every little detail (also, on an unrelated note, the way you draw each side makes my brain brrr with happiness
I came here because dsmp stuff still gets recommended to me, even though I’m no longer into it, but it was totally worth it! I love your animation style so much!
I saw the song and sandersides and immediately went- "set reminder" im super pumped for this
This is an absolute masterpiece. I adore ever frame of this magnum opus!!!
I like how it starts with who I assume to be Thomas in front of what looks like a mic as if he is about to sing this song.
Love that "Everything's fine." with Patton as it really does show that even here he isn't fully willing or able to show his emotions in front of Thomas at a time where Thomas needs him the most.
Than we get deeper into the emotions of each side with Logan trying to be as helpful as he can be but not getting the results he would like out of it, Patton trying to be as friendly as possible and still not managing to get what he wants for Thomas, Roman expressing his emptiness at never succeeding (Along with a nice hint at Remus in the green) and Virgil just trying to be good and still feeling like the problem.
Than we get into perhaps my favourite part of all of this with those flashes to the past and present. Virgil starting off as a cool edgy kind of figure to him now lashing out because of Deceit, Roman being confident and assured to now being unsure of what to do when Thomas's life starts to get more and more complicated, Logan actually having fun with his role as Logic to now being stressed out and worried for Thomas's future and Patton starting of as a happy go lucky kind of character to now feeling sad and alone.
I love when Remus comes in and the whole thing turns into a fever dream with colours popping off everywhere and everything being all over the place to show how Thomas's mind is now kind of over the place due to all the new changes and developments in his life.
Lastly, I really have to mention that I love the use of "Where the hell is the karma?" throughout this whole animation. Firstly it's said by Thomas as a show of his frustration at having done everything he can do be a good person and still having to make more and more sacrifices for other people. Than it's said by Janus to show how he is also frustrated with the other sides and specifically Patton for having this complete black and white view of selfishness and selflessness (heh....) and not allowing Thomas to focus on himself for once. Than it's said by Virgil to show his frustration with Remus and everything happening around Thomas.
Overall, this is absolutely a 10/10 animation!!!!
One particular moment I'll never be able to get over is Thomas and Virgil laying on the floor, sharing a pair of earbuds listening to music together 🥺
This is insanely good! I can't stop rewatching it, there's just so many details, it's perfect
everybody knows that the sanders sides fandom is currently fueling the dsmp fandom SO LIKE,,, THIS APPEALS TO US TOO LMAO XD this is so so so so good!!!!!! thank you
Good gosh. I come back to this animatic regularly when I need inspiration, and gosh, I still tear up at that end bit. Thomas hugging Logan, gripping onto him, the callback happening when he has to put on a brave face, and then him sitting with the sides in a circle around him. It just makes me so emotional.
This is hands down the best animatic for anything I've ever seen
I've started telling people that they need to watch Sanders sides not because they need to watch sandersides but just so that they can experience all of the fan art.
i know this was posted over a year ago, but this just popped into my recommended today and man i do not regret watching this at all. i subscribed for your dsmp animatics and just in general your beautiful and unique way of animating, but before the dsmp, sanders sides was my number one, and lets just say this made me want to binge every episode again. wonderful and beautiful animatic as always. keep it up
fuuuuuck man, i'm just in awe with this what the hell????? the colors??? the artstyle??? the transitions and the way it's jaggedly smooth??? what??? the editing too??? it fits so well with the music??? i'm just asking a bunch of questions here bc i'll never get over hươ good no magnificent this is goddamn
I haven't watched sanders sides since like 2018 but this animatic single handedly might bring me to do so again. Amazing job PSA!
OMG THIS MADE ME TEAR UP THE MOVEMENTS AND THE USE OF THE LYRICS FOR EVERY SIDE WAS JUST AMAZING HOLY!! SERIOUSLY YOU MADE TWO AMAZING ANIMATIONS FOR 2 OF MY FAVORITE FANDOMS SERIOUSLY AHH!! 💞💞💘💘💘💘
I. Am. Obsessed. Specifically with the color coding that happens in 0:41 through roughly 0:58. The way the word fine is shown as a lie with the orange and the orange in Patton’s eye because he knows he’s lying to himself and Thomas. Than Patten gets split between light blue and red, Roman’s color and the color of passion. And than there’s Roman with the orange because again, he knows he’s biased and lying. Than he flashes to green because of his relationship with Remus and finally Vergil’s eyes are green and orange because he’s struggling with his history with the dark sides. I’m r I’m over analyzing by ether way AHHHHHHH! I love this animatic. Chef’s kiss.
SURPRISE!! It was all intentional
THIS IS SO PRETTY!! The transitions from scene to scene are smooth and you went all the way back to SVS! The colors helped create the mood, especially with Remus. Overall, great animatic! It's beautifully done.
This literally goes down in history as my favorite animatic.
I’m speechless but putting this here for the algorithm.
THE TRANSITIONS ARE SO GOOOOOD AND YOUR FRAMING
AA
This is amazing. I adore the shots where the camera is sort of moving around the character? So you see different sides? Those are so incredibly well done. And the colors, the movement, just.. oh my
once again taking my pilgrimage to appreciate the single best piece of sanders sides fan content that has ever been created
WHY HAVEN'T I SEEN THIS SOONER?!??
THE COLORS, THE MOVEMENTS, THE EXPRESIONS- E V E R Y T H I N G IS JUST SO STUNNING AND AMAZING!!
I can't believe it has been over two years since this came out. It is still a masterpiece even now.
aCK! I can’t stop watching this beauty! your art style is just FANTASTIC and the transitions are sooooo well done!!!
Your use of color is so phenomenal. It's really inspiring, pushes so far with contrast So skillfully. It makes me want to experiment with that kind of visual drama.
words cannot describe how absolutely in awe i am at every single part of this video. ive watched this at least 14 times and am at no risk of stopping. time is meaninless but Karma is now and gosh heckin dang now im gonna strive to animate as good and as dyanmic and colorful and beautiful as this !!!!!!
Can I hop on board the train of gushing over the use of colors in this??? Because I'm in love with it, oh my gosh there's so much emotion and atmosphere and style! I watched this at half the speed one time around as well and it was clear how much time and effort was put into this. Plus there were a few quick frames that I missed at normal speed that just added to the story. Anyways yes sorry for the long post but this was so awesome!
Me: *doing school work with my playlist on I the background*
Public Spam Account: *animation comes one*
Me: *OPENS THE YT TAB SHOWS ALL MY FRIENDS AND WATCHES THE VIDEO*
Video: *ends*
Me: *Goes back to working*
Um, holy hell, call that an instant subscribe?? My jaw quite literally dropped, this is so freaking amazing.
I’ll be honest I didn’t expect this but WOW it’s incredible! This song fits perfectly with sanders sides and the SKILL! you’re just so talented I cannot believe it.
IM LITERALLY SCREAMING INSIDE THIS IS SO FUCKING GOOD???? I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WORK YOU DO AND YOUR STYLE,,, EVERYTHINGS JUST SO *chefs kiss* !!!! I hope you have a wonderful day because this animatic just made mine :)

WORDS CANNIT EXPRESS HOW SHOOK I AM RN THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL OMFG EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS IM SO INSPIRED AAAAA
I really appreciate some sander sides animatics, all my favourite sander sides content creators have moved over to dsmp content, it's sad to have to be pushed out of your hyperfixation and comfort show into something entirely new because everyones moved over to something completely new, I just want more sander sides content
0:56 the dark side colours in virgil's eye! and the fact that there's only one eye hhh literally so many (unintentional? idk) orange references helpdlf;
Best animation in this whole fandom I stGGGGG goodness this is amazing
Oh my gosh-
I love this so much! Now I can see why a lot of Fanders loved it so much, including Thomas! This animatic makes me realize how very chaotic the courtroom climax was, and how having to choose between a lot of choices can be very conflicting. Especially when thinking about it in your head makes it even more difficult and conflicting, to the point where it gives you headache. I really feel bad for C!Thomas and the Sides, and knowing how these episodes are about what is good, bad, and it involves morals, and how it can affect one's self and others around them.
I've gone through stuff like this, where I had to choose between school and other things I want. And I've been choosing school a lot, because I wanted to be the "good school girl" (even though my friends are willing to send me their lessons), until I realized I missed a lot of opportunities like going to France and the Netherlands, or go see my favorite people, before COVID hit.
Man, I should really think about my choices very carefully, instead of carelessly being fine about missing great opportunities.
HOLY CRAP THAT WAS AWESOME
THE ANIMATION
THE CONTRAST
JUST-
W O W
The transitions? Immaculate. The emotions? Felt. The colors? Popping off.
Came for the MCYT content,
Stayed for the INCREDIBLE animation ♥️
i absolutely adore all of the bits of janus because you can clearly tell how he feels left out and like he maybe doesn’t have a real relationship with thomas despite being a side too and it BREAKS MY DAMN HEART
Hot take: Orange Side is going to be Bitterness. He will represent regret, wistfulness, longing, bitterness, loneliness, isolation.
OMG! This is incredible!! I always thought this song fit so well with what c!Thomas was going through and you executed it perfectly!!! I love it!!!
AJR AND SANDERS SIDES?! SIGN ME UP!!!!!
GOD your skills are absolutely blowing me away. Evrything is so smooth and expressive, the colors and lines... Even if I know absolutely nothing about Sander Sides, I love your animation!!
Sanders sides is a web serie made by Thomas Sanders on his youtube channel.
Basecly, each episode is him talking to his sides (Representations of aspect of his personality (Morality, creativity, logic etc)) about dilemas he faces in his life.
I highly suggest you check it out. There's a playlist with all the episodes on Thomas Sanders channel
@@claireaquos6532 oooh it sounds really cool!!! I most likely will !!
Wow,
This is how I always start comments I have no idea what should I write.
This animation is kind of masterpiece. You placed all of the biggest problems from Sanders Sides in two minutes film.
I like the fact you showed how hard and painful the courtroom was for everyone. EVERYONE means Deceit too because lots of people seems ignore it.
PS. Song is great. Why I have never heard it before!?
HOLY SHIT THIS IS AMAZING IT FITS SO WELL AND I LOVE THE COLOURS AND IT'S SO FLUID AND SATISFYING TO WATCH OMG
Dream SMP AND SANDERS SIDES ANIMATICS?
wow. you're so talented.
Shaking crying and throwing up, this video a year after I first watched it so beautiful creative and amazing thank you so much for making it
