Wings | Animated Short Film | SVA Thesis

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2019
- In this story of kindness, friendship, and the fear of being left behind, a friendship takes flight as a mouse that wants to fly and an injured bird cross paths.
Final film from the School of Visual arts. I directed, background painted, animated, and did about half of the cleanup/coloring myself! The rest was handled by my awesome team in the credits. Thank you to Colin Andrew Grant for the fantastic score, and thanks to SVA for the two grants that helped me produce this film!
And thank you all so much for watching. This was a huge labor of love for me, and I'm so glad I finally get to share it!

comment answering some frequently asked questions!!
- can I repost this?
- NO. Unless you're doing some sort of analysis (reaction video, discussion video,) just posting a small clip, or we otherwise came to an agreement, I do not give permission for Wings to be reposted anywhere. the only "official" places Wings is posted are TH-cam, Vimeo, and my personal facebook page.
-what are their names/genders?
the mouse is Nutmeg and the bird is Bluebell, and they're both girls :D
- what program did you use?
- TVPaint!
- how long did this take?
- about a year! It was my senior thesis film at SVA
- how did a string end up wrapped around the bird's wing?
- i dunno, it happens sometimes with fishing line
Thanks for summarizing the FAQ.
This is so cute
I feel as if I watched a rough version way earlier? Like, hardly anything colored before this was uploaded? Did you ever upload a rough version?
This is amazing
It looks like an old cartoon movie
@@beckel3593 there are a few rough shots in an end-of-year video from 2018!
You hear that?
*Its the sound of Disney animators crying.*
THOSE PEOPLE CANNOT BE CALLED ANIMATORS ANYMORE
SPECIALLY BY THE MONSTRUOSITY THAT THE LION KING IS AND THE ONE THE LADY AND THE TRAMP WILL BE
Foxtrot I’m guessing they’re referencing the classic Disney animators since Disney doesn’t even really make animations anymore. That’s all Pixar.

THEN WHAT SHOULD INTROVERTS DO BECAUSE WE CAN NOT MAKE FRIENDS.
Somebody else said this, but this feels like an old Disney animated movie. Furthermore, that soundtrack. My gosh, that’s good stuff for only five minutes worth of animation. Beyond that, can we talk about how expressive this is? Amazing work.
I agree 100 percent!! I wish they would make more movies like this. I also think it’s why studio ghibli movies are also popular
There actually is a Silly Symphony short like this. I can’t remember what it’s called, but it involves a mouse that wants to have wings and fly. Although it involves the mouse rescuing a fairy, not a bird
Gguuu@@voigdinproductions
It's really sad when not even Disney can come up with something as good as this.
Really😢
Have you seen Burrow? I don't even bring it up to claim that one is better than the other, but they are similar and are both stunning in their own ways. I don't get the modern day assertion that the entirety of Disney is somehow artistically bereft.
It's primarily due to Disney's current obsessiveness over political pandering. Rather than focusing on good stories, characters and ideas, Disney is completely focused on identity politics, diversity and anything that fits the narrative of Twitter users. Pandering to these people has resulted in their films bombing again and again and losing money tremendously in the process. I haven't seen this Burrow, but I will look it up later.
@@Remyfox819 Ah, that makes sense, and I often agree! I don't defend the company, its business practices, or its ethics, I just find myself defending their artists. I dunno, I guess it seems a shame to write off Disney when there's so much passionate work and meaningful art even beneath the politics or an overall bad product.
Anyway, Burrow and a lot of the other Disney shorts are pretty cool, the artists seem to have more freedom to experiment. Also highly recommend Loop, which I feel is a great instance of inclusivity done right. :)
Ikr they are so caught up in money making that they lost the plot lol
i can already tell by the trailer that this is going to be amazing!
edit: ok there are too many replies so im just gonna leave an explanation here
this is NOT a trailer
there was a trailer FOR this animated short film
in the description of that trailer there was a link to the premier of this short film

Rose Animates no this was probably made private and then the link was sent to a few special individuals
Does anyone else feel really happy whenever animators nail bird-head movements?
So damn cute
I also feel really happy when they *don't* give the talking ones teeth just to get the mouth movements right.
@@Aliandrin Yes! It's so beautiful!
@PHOENIX VOLT YYYYYEEEEEE
Ofcourse
I think the best description of this short film is, if a mouse had wings, it wouldn't be able to save the bird. So always, look at what you have, not what other people have.Thank you and I love this short film so much ♥️
God when she tipped her wing for Nutmeg I immediately started crying. This is such an incredible short film.
Breaking news: a robin was spotted carrying a tiny mouse with a green scarf on their back
Everyone liked that
*it’s a miracle.*
yes, we did
we really did
Im telling ya, we did
And we thought that it wasn’t possible
I love that the animators showed that recovery takes time is not some sudden thing. You slowly get better
BillTheCat grim congradulation for his lovely short👏🏽👍❤️
@Give u merald then that is another story, you can create a story with that too
@Haha TNT Go brrr you get prosthetics
@Epic Sword We could lift you up in a chair, that has wings, we could even put a holder for your drink within the chair, so you can enjoy a good flight 🕊🌸
I love this so much, it feels like seeing the kids books I used to read but it’s been given more life as an animation.
Yes, that was my thought too! It was so reminiscent of the old picture books … so touching and beautiful. My favorite scene from this short was when the mouse wanted to comfort the bird by cuddling with her while reading a story.
"Allah! There is no god but He - the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep. His are all things In the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede In His presence except As he permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind them. Nor shall they encompass Aught of his knowledge Except as He willeth. His throne doth extend Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in guarding And preserving them, For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory)."

This animation is so cute and amazing! Everything about it from the animation to the absolute mind blowing story behind it.
I absolutely love the development of the relationship between the mouse and bird and the part where the mouse finally reaches their goal of being able to fly high up in the sky.
Who else just almost Teared up from how beautiful and peaceful it was?

This was so cute and pure, like something from a children’s book

Actually, it was a tear. 🥺
Parth Rawat - yup, a smile as i cry ;-;
I had tears. This is just beautiful!
I teared up and squealed through the entire last part
Yeah...
This is so emotional and sweet. The animation is so animal like, it captures the characters the way they're real self would move. Friendship is such a great thing, and I bet nobody would expect a mouse and a bird to become friends! ❤

I love Nutmeg and Bluebell's friendship. I teared up when Bluebell offered her wing so that Nutmeg could get on and experience what it means to fly. This is so sweet, touching, and heartwarming. Thank you for sharing your thesis with us, Casey. I wish there were movie-length projects like this for us viewers to consume. Your project symbolizes a return to simpler, happier, gentler times.
Sometimes, we all just want a happy ending. No evil intents, no malicious behaviour, no dark undertone... Just a lighthearted video to cheer our day up a little.
This comments gunna blow up I mean it
I agree Leo MarBel
Ikr every short film is so depressing, but still fun to watch
I can recommend the channel
Esma movies here on TH-cam.
Although not all their short films have happy endings, Esma is a breath of fresh air and really shows how formulaic Disney has become!
Nice advice 😆😀
we miss old cartoon ... was all like this when i was kid :'(
Ikr... unlike all the useless cartoons these days
Like Dragon Tales, Dexter's laboratory....yeah I feel you man

@@mithi2477 oh wow. Way to invalidate all the hard-working animators and storytellers in the industry today.
Even if 3D animation wasn't your thing, it takes a lot of hard work and effort to create, and there are genuinely good stories being told through the medium. And anime also exists, and good stories are also being told through the medium as well.
@@mithi2477 They fucked Ben 10 dude.. I watched all the episodes
All the beautiful feathers the little mouse collected to decorate his house was such a perfect touch.
Breath in the nostalgia
When the mouse was riding a bird and the bird was like: I can show you the world!

Aint gon ruin the 69 likes
Yeap, and then a road roller and circle distortion appears while one of the animals screams "Za Warudooo", would've been a 10/10 short film

Same, I'm so happy it did.
Same :D
Rare moments when the TH-cam algorithm does something right
Same goes to me..
-FINALLY, youtube stayed home ronight-
I like the very mild anime undertones. The way the birds mouth gets all squiggly, many of the gestures and moments, the whole aesthetics of the characters. It's just got those small quirks you see in Japanese animation that's great for conveying small cute moments and stuff. Very pleasing to the eye.
oh
Me too!
Netflix don't know what they are doing when they see this awesome tale! The animation is so neat, well done!
"Wie goed doet, goed ontmoet". It's a Dutch saying which would literally translate to "One who does good things, will meet goodness". The mouse helped the bird, and in return he was met with kindness, the same kindness he gave in the first place.
Nog een nederlander( of iemand die Nederlands kent)
Music Wolf ik kan nederlands
Karma... "Three fold law"... "The Golden Rule". There's a ton of cultures with moral reciprocity values.
Lol
In Romanian it would be:"Bine faci,bine găsești.Rău faci,rău găsești." which roughly translates to:"You do good,good you will find.You do bad,bad you will find."

@@nehanishanp yeah SOMETIMES 😅
The moral is..when u know that you'll never be able to fly anymore..but suddenly u realise that actually u can fly! throughout helping other people..around yourself..!and by helping others finally now u can feel the same feeling of flying... like actually you're flying...!🕊️💚
Everytime I watch this film my heart smiles💌

Aside from the art being beautiful in its own right, this is the kind of down-to-earth nature theming that helps me appreciate the real world's beauty in a new way. The power of animation, man.
Keep up the wonderful work, and may you never be interpolated by AI at 60 fps! :)
i'm 4 years late but this is the cutest thing i've seen today, my heart is so full!
This should blow up like the spider and butterfly animation last year
I honestly kinda feel that this animator used the similar story line just from reading the description lol
Same!
I immediately went “aww” when I saw the scarf on the mouse 😊

And every once in a while the bird would be help him out and check in on him
I would watch that.
You should watch over the garden wall.
@@sufyanahmed6524 I did, a long time ago xD
As a person who lives with robins and has actually raised and befriended some, I can say that the designs, movements, and even sounds are really accurate! Amazing film. This one really touched my heart
i still cry rewatching this.. its wonderful.
Sometimes finding your wings means helping someone else find theirs first.
When you finally realise, that your dreams are impossible, then you watch another person working at the same dream but... Has some scope of fulfilling it, don't pull his leg.
Help him.
Cuz,
He might fulfill yours too.
Wow... That was deep 👍
@kryptonal games It's justy way of thinking 😆
Loved this
Nice comment!! It is correct also.
@@haurinori your friend needs ya, lol
that was so freaking ADORABLE! I loved the mouse's scarf! I love animals wearing scarves! The animation was super fluid!
SVA... you have amazing artists at your school. I'm truly grateful for my child to be one of them.
I don't remember the last time an animation made me cry. This piece was so pure that it brought me to tears.
Manly tears, of course.

this has a higher entertainment value than every disney remake 10/10 this is pixar
I had the same experience a few years ago, I found a seagull that had a leg and a wing entangled in a fishing line, I was able to catch the seagull and remove the fishing line, but happily, it was not injured and it was able to fly freely again. The sad thing about the whole story is that I would have liked to have flown next to her.
THE MOUSE HELPED THE BIRD..
KINDNESS IS NOT A LOST!💥
Instead of choosing the wings that can make us fly in the blue sky,
We choose an arms that can protect and help others
@@Kettedoll yea it doesn't make sense to me i wonder why
@@KruCorn 🤣🤣🤣
I didn’t cry I didn’t cry I didn’t cry-
DANG IT
*I almost cried*
I had tears dripping from my eyes when the bird offered its wing for the mouse to climb on
Okay
I cried tears of happiness :,)
I'm so you!
I was never able to master the skill of feeling such sadness inside, but smiling on the outside for the sake of those we love. Cute lil mouse
Actually this reminds me more of a work from Miyazaki than Disney. It has a calm mood and is very touching. It has a soft look and smooth but still rough animation, like you are used to know from hand drawn animation. The soundwork is amazingly well done and the background music fits in just right. There is nothing to complain about. Very well done!
Aw, this is so cute!!!
(And I’m gonna nickname it “How to Train your Robin”)
If there'll be a part two, that should be the title of it.😂
This is excellent. I want this to be true. XD
XD
But, just like how to train your dragon, they are both friends and they love each other
*G E N I U S*
Absolutely cute nice story line , it should be turned into a children’s book .
As soon as possible too!!
it is possible that this was already a book but not by the same person
Yaeh
It's so flipping cute that tears can come out about right now! :3
Just write it on Wattpad
Being kind without personal motivation is rare among humans.
Watching this gives me the same wonderment I felt when watching Disney and Studio Ghibli movies as a child.

Ah yes, gonna waste 6 min of my life.
After:
Finna watch it again and cry.
Same :'(
Omg same thought I was wasting my time of my life but no it's shows kindness in the world :)
Bells same
Well, I wouldn’t say “waste my life...” but I get your point
I know, sweet creatures being kind to one another. I am crying like crazy & I don't quite know why...
I always wanted to fly. When I was little i tried making flying machines and pretend i could soar over my neighbors house. I love the mouse's green scarf!
That was beautiful! Nutmeg and Bluebell had so much personality; job well done 👏
The 7 dislikes are the birds that didn’t get to be friends with the mouse
Such vivid expressions and fluid movements, you're an amazing animator and I wish you all the best in this field. ✨

This brought so nostalgia and tears at the end. The animation took me back to my childhood when I watched The Jungle Book and other cartoon of much quality. The mannerisms, empathy, kindness, desire, music.. I can’t express how amazing I felt. Loved loved loved it ❤
Thanks for portraying mice as a kind creature.
He cannot fly, so he helps the bird to fly, he fulfil his dream by doing so. But at last he feels the joy of fly.... 😍😍😍😍... Jb sapno me jaan hoti h toh bina pankh waale bhi udd skte h...

I love the simple but yet beautiful and valuable lesson that is taught here, if you give the more you will get. Always treat others with kindness even if that person does not because you still feel happy to know you did something good instead of something bad.
Gosh I love this so much-
I especially liked the movement and expressions. They were both really emotive and you could tell exactly what was going through their minds at any given scene, which is super important. The designs are adorable and yet simple, and I hecking LOVE the backgrounds.
All in all, AMAZING job! :D

I miss traditional animated movies 💛 the hand drawn artwork felt more “authentic” and personal with the stories
One of my favorite Disney movies also seems to be the last traditionally animated movie they’ve made: Treasure Planet. Although it wasn’t as successful as it should’ve been, it still combined different styles of animation harmoniously
I agreed. It gives us nostalgic feeling such as like watching golden age of Disney's animated.
The rat's got a big heart ❤🔥
One of the most heartwarming animations, beautiful scenery and cute animals
This is beautiful! Makes me miss older shows. The style is quite nostalgic.
Yes
I have no idea why but the style makes me think of kikis delivery service
I think this style was hand drawn by hand first
It made me think of little bear
Nostalgic? You are still a teen!
I feel likr i was watching an old, simple and beautiful cartoon. Just simple and beautiful. Great efforts and nice moral just so relaxing and nice to watch
Exactly and it was more enjoyable than any of today's cartoons.
Yeah it was really ❤️ touching video...♥️♥️

This is what kindness means... despite of their differences, because of the humble heart by a mouse, helping someone in need without expecting in return, becoming friends , it creates an enjoyable life... hoping we humans can get some moral lessons on this simple yet adorable animation 💜

The mouse that size would have been a prey to that bird, it would just swallow that mouse whole.
@@tod4849 That's not cursed, that's just life.

In terms of animation technicality, I love how it's consistent from colors to shapes, and it even aced all the 12 principles of animation.
The pacing is also fine, it's not too dragging or too fast. The sound effects and background music is just right.
Even the watercolor theme attracted me. Lastly, the story is heart-warming.
I love all parts of it. Thanks for posting this!
Это. Очень. Мило! 🩷🩷🩷

Я так рада, что это прекрасное и очень милое видео попалось мне в рекомендациях🥰💕
I love that the robin's voice was actually the calls and sounds of an American Robin and not just generic "bird". In particular, the alarmed chirping when the mouse jumps on the wing to remove the string. That's actually the sound a robin makes when something has spooked it.
Yea that is rlly neat
Thanks for the info. I didn't know. Cool!
I loved that part, too! Sounded just like the robin I accidentally spooked yesterday!
@@hungrytroodontid ф9

This short film is ADORABLE! I love the characters and it's such a cute happy story. It's the exact thing I like too. It's simple but beautiful and gives off happy vibes.
I can't find the happy here. His home looked so cozy and warm in the winter. Does this friendship will last forever? It is a cute story, but the reality is not here
@@otilialefey8514 then what were you watching? It's about courage, bravery, kindness, friendship, gratitude, wishing, joy and happiness. You must be very young and nieve. Don't know if you ever heard the Aesop's story about "The Lion & the Mouse". The animation's overall concept is like that Aesop's story. As for friendships lasting forever is an extremely rare thing. As you age the friends you made makes new friends and so do you. This process is always ongoing which is a part of life. In the animation I'm sure their friendship will last until something ends it like no food for one of them so one has to leave to find food or water. Distance is usually a real killer to end friendships and relationships. The other variable to end a friendship is death. So the reality here is very real.
it's what it's all about! the subtle emotional qualities of true compassion - everpresent inbthe heart of the wild spirit
@@walterkoziol3822 maybe you are right. I just said what I thought. Maybe is wrong. Maybe
The last scene!!! Is incredibly emotive... a tear go out...
