- IT'S DONE!
This took an absurd amount of time but I'm glad it's actually finished! :'D
I've never done anything like this before as this is my first animatic, but I'm pretty pleased on how it turned out!
Disclaimer: some character designs and life count may be wrong, and there may be a few details I missed out. Sorry for that :'(
Context : Last Life SMP. For those who haven't watched it, basically, everyone spawns inside a small Minecraft world, and are assigned a random amount of lives from 2-6 at the start. A Player with 3+ lives has a green name (or eyes in this animatic), and with 2 lives, has a yellow name, while a player with 1 life has a red name. Red names are hostile and all alliances are cut when one becomes red. When a player dies on their red name, they're out of the series. Each session, the server will randomly assign someone to be the bogeyman, whose task is to kill someone yellow or green during the session, else on the next session, they will automatically become red name. Players are allowed to give lives to another. Last player standing wins :)
GoodtimeswithScar, or Scar in short, is one of the players lucky enough to acquire 6 lives from the start, and even became 7 as the series progressed. He is a crafty and cunning wizard up in his Magical Mountain, selling magical crystals and other trinkets to people around him. Scar also possesses the Enchanter, the most powerful item in the series and used it to his advantage. Despite his wealth, Scar lived alone and had no allies, especially after his fellow wizard Smallishbeans(Joel) became a red life. Desperate to have someone, Scar was ready to give everything he had, even selling his lives to red names on the promise that they will be his allies. But, after an accident at the Southlands that made him a red life, he slowly realized that no one was really there for him, and that his cruel world deserved nothing but death and fire.

Brilliant. I think this sort of embodies why Scar didn’t do as well in Last Life in comparison to 3rd Life. I think we all know his greatest weapon is his silver tongue. But he needs allies to truly capitalise on that. And by episode 2 he was basically alone.
You are absolutely right but I never thought I would see Scar and sliver tongue in the same sentence
Manages to make a deal with reds as a green, somehow.
like peral in double life thow the big defense is she was not wanted by anyone
Yes, Scar's greatest weapon is his silver tongue, however he has become downright lethal with a bow as of late.
@@mikehughes4969 Do I have a deal for you! Undead causing you trouble? These Silver Arrows are guaranteed to put a chip in their step. Normally I'd sell a stack of these Silver Arrows for 4 diamonds, but for you I'll sell sixteen for 1.
That little sequence of Etho scrambling behind Scar to pick up the explosives is so precious! It unlocked for me how amazing a proper team up between those two would be; both of them run on looney toons logic
I will never stop holding a small grudge against Etho for killing Pizza, but I can see where you're coming from
@@brontegoodman6238
Well skizz told em to
Holdup, your FIRST animatic?? Sooo good my dude you did an amazing job! I never realised how well this song fit thematically with Scar’s Last Life story so well! The pacing was great, all those transitions amazing and I loved all the little watcher details you speckled here and there! Loved it! :D
Nice seeing you here Katy 👀
I do agree, but who knows, maybe this was a work in progress from forever ago, this is Last life. Not double life (more recent)
People like this has a lot of time on their hands.
Omega
Which details?
This makes me feel really bad for Scar, even though he enjoyed his time, he was so lonely
he made it work- it's honestly impressive how well he did with such a lack of allies
And history just repeated itself with secret life, but at least he won
Now that secret life has concluded, this works for it as well if not better than Last Life.
I cant use the same song again im scrounging through the other AJR songs 😭 anything ANYTHING
@@chippie_bee it would be *funny* though (edit: it'd also be genuinely an amazing representation of scar for secret life, even more so than last life)
@@chippie_bee an animatic for every Scar's Life Series performance and every single one to Smallest Viollin ? It could be a set 😂
Has… has scar seen this? He’d probably love this, it’s absolutely gorgeous and perfectly done.
If they tagged him on twitter with this animatic he probably saw it, if not then probably not
OK LETS TALK ABOUT 0:42 LIKE THAT IS SOOOO SMOOTH with Scar doing his crystal thing but no body there to witness it. It was really good and I always wanted to get into this stuff but the more I watch them the more complicated it seems
REALLY LIKE the way you tell Scar's story, how it looks like he wants to be involved in everything with the lyrics choice
This is amazing :D
I know I'm late, but I agree with this fully.
(Even with my bad headphones removing the lyrics for some reason)
This was an absolute joy to watch. I'd never have thought to use this song for Scar but it fits him so well, and matches the frivolous nature of his character despite his circumstances and solitude. The scenes are so dynamic and creative as well, especially with Scar placing the tnt while dancing to the music and Etho picking it back up. But that's just one specific moment, I adored the whole thing.
You can really see the progression of your skill as the animatic went on, as well. This is so so underrated
Man, I loved the moment where Scar respawns in his bed, glanced up at the single red heart hovering there, and scowls. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the lives represented that way, and I love it, especially since it worked so well with the flow of the song :)
I like the fact that his eyes turn purple at the end like hinting that there’s a life after
2:15 i actually really love the idea that when a mineccraft character dies they just wake up in their bed like waking up from a dream but, if the deaths are canon/keepinv is off, it wasnt just a dream but really happened
THIS IS SO GOOD! There really is a lack of last life scar animatics, and yours has got to be the best I've seen so far!
1:56 my favorite part is Scar, dancing through, and Etho picking it up behind him 💕😆💕
Coming to this animatic over from Secret Life, I gotta say that this is just amazing. I have kind of done some looking back at previous series and realized that Scar has had one hell of an arc to get to his first series win. In Third Life he relied heavily on Grian, and he knew that he would from the beginning, so he trapped Grian in a bit of a social contract from day one to keep him by his side. But in Last Life he lost his crutch, and you could see the learning curve that took him on- having to fend for himself, lean even more into his salesman self, building his own traps. This animatic really encapsulstes that bridge of learning through solitude that brought him from his skill level in Third Life to his skill level in Double Life and beyond.
Dang what an incredible take on the last life story! I loved the transition of Scar from being a fun but lonely character to his red life rage arc, and that end genuinely gave me chills! You actually made Scar seem cool (lol), and the music choice fit incredibly well. An amazing first attempt, hope to see more like this soon.
OH THIS IS SO SAD AND BEAUTIFUL.
I've thought about this song fitting scar before; you've put it into awesome visuals and so SO MUCH MORE!!!!!
You've done an amazing job with this animatic, genuinely! ❤️
It really pulls at my heartstrings all over again
Wow, this is so well done. The pacing and the storytelling where wonderful. It really makes me sad for Last Life Scar.
Scar is so expressive in your drawings, I never really thought about how tragic scar’s last life series was until now!
The fear in Yellow Snow’s eyes
Also love this animatic and your storytelling of scar.
Oh I really like this animatic! It's so dynamic! You put so much work, energy and ispiration into it!
FIRST ANIMATIC????? this is AMAZING, and depicts how tragic of a character LL!Scar was so well!!! keep up the amazing work
The transitions were so smooth! My favourite part was the sequence from 1:40 to 2:08 with team BEST getting the enchanter and scar trying to get it back!
AAAA THIS IS SO GOOOODD!
I really like the use of color in this. It tells a story in a way that a fully colored animatic may not.
(The ending where Scar dies and his eyes go purple IS SO COOL! I LOVE THAT CONCEPT!)
What incredible animation!!! There's so much inspiration in this, from the different camera angles to the little transitions before the chorus (SO CUTE!!!)
And I gotta congratulate you for finishing it all the way!! I think one of the hardest things of working on animatics/animations is actually getting them done all the way through (speaking from experience here LOL)
Be proud!! You've made something absolutely awesome! I predict myself coming back to watch this many times in the future :D
Love how sad and lonely scar looks at2:32
I'M TWO MONTHS LATE BUT THIS IS SO GOOD!!! The mix of fun antics slowly turning into horrors and tragedy really sums up Scar's season and you captured it perfectly
Even after over a year I can’t stop rewatching this! For your first ever Animatic this is on its own level of incredible!!!
I'm not sure if this was intentional, but centering on Cleo sitting in the fairy forest when they say "fires so violent" was a cool detail
This video also shows that even though Scar appears a little bad at the game sometimes, like drowning in Scott's tower, he can talk anyone into anything, like when Grian and Joel were literally holding him at gunpoint and THEY ended up in a one-sided deal skewed toward HIM
I didn't know the song, and the title card made me think it was going to be some slow, somber animatic about Scar's lament, but this was so much better.
Dude, literally WHAT? THAT"S SO INSANE! This is one of the best animatics I've ever seen! You got TALENT!
The purple eyes signifying he's a spectator now is such a cool touch! Congrats dude!
AHHHH I LOVE THIS SO SO MUCH!! Last Life Scar, my boy :( You portrayed his story so well!!
How does this song so insanely FIT Last Life Scar?!
i wish scar sees this animatic. made me smile all the way but i still had tears by the end i cant explain why.
O MY GOODNESS THIS IS MY NEW FAVOURITE ANIMATIC
Imposter
this video got me into the life series. rewatching it 8 months after i first watched it
Very charmingly amateur-anime style.
Unlike a lot of the other more dramatic animatics, this is adorable!
Still dramatic, but includes a lot of light-hearted moments~ :3
I absolutely love this animation, also not a lot of people realize that watchers are apart of the smp, so the purple in Scar's eyes at the end was amazing, a very nice touch on that
This animatic made me realize that I had never actually listened to "World's Smallest Violin" from start to finish. I'd only listened to the final refrain since that is the part people tend to use in short edits.
Oh, this might just be my favourite animatic ever! The creativity, movement, emotion, and storytelling all mesh together to make something so so cool.
Ohhh just from the thumbnail and title I knew I was going to love this... I feel like this song fits last life! Scar so we'll.
3:03 nice touch with the watcher eyes! it's a small detail that makes a big difference.
Your colour usage is epic as well, drawing the eye towards the important bits, while still having lots of detail in the background.
also 1:59 Etho LOL!
Hears to ten years of hundreds of thousands of views of unimaginably awesome work with loads more on the way!
Yes... yess.... YESS!!!!!! This encapsulates all of the things about Scar's last life pov that make me go INSANE!!! And the music choice is just *chefs kiss* "really needs an audience" is VERY representative of Scar's struggles in that season. And I LOVE that little repeating animation with the crystals going around him its so CUTE! And the detail of Scar on yellow looking more ragged and tired is so!!!! *hits desk repeatedly* THIS IS A GREAT ANIMATION AND YOU SHOULD BE SO PROUD!!
Why is no one talking about the EVO SYMBOL it his eyes when he dies!?!? Like that’s such a good detail. This is such a good animatic I love sm
Love the way you dipickted scar!
I watched this once. Then Twice... Please Help I've Watched This Like 20 Times And Almost Memorised It. Im Joking Its Great. Great Animatic. Wish I Was Good At Drawing Now. Keep It It.
I knew I had to go back to this video when I finished scar's last life pov. Man I loved that you emphasized how alone he felt through out this season. And as ypur first animatic too?!? AMAZING JOB!!!!
THIS IS SO GOOD!! you tell the story so well and it really shows how tragic scars character is
Omg so good. I love the idea that he actually has magic and used that as a weapon.
HOW DO YOU DO IT THIS IS JUST 2 GOOOD WITH THE LYRICS
SCAR NOOO
Scar had the worst time in Last Life and no one points it out.
Also in terms of the actual animation-
Oh my goodness. This is animated incredibly. There are no words
Omg this is so damn good. Congratulations on finishing this, I can’t imagine how long it took you. I love all of it and it brings back so many memories of Last Life. I look forward to seeing what you do next!
AGREED
but for the most part, I came back to say, 'cant wait to see what you do next~!' (/lyrics)
👻
Scar just wanted a friend. He gave away all his gear he’d saved up to the reds. And he ultimately died alongside BigB. Just trying to make a friend.
Uhhhhhhhhhh… dang?
Like, where do I even start?
First of all, amazing song taste, love this song.
Secondly, this is such a cool animatic, and the blend of stillness and motion in the frames is awesome, combined with the colors is amazing
Thirdly, I feel like you represented scar in a really accurate way, and that’s hard to do sometimes, so great job with that.
I’m just so amazed, you came out of nowhere with this, awesome job.
This animatic made me cry so much, i never knew how lonely scar was during all of last life, and how sad he was being alone made me feel so bad, i love your work!
Honestly, if scar didn’t die in stupid ways he would probably be one of the most dangerous on the server. In third life he died stupidity twice yet still got top two, in LL he only died to pvp twice, his other deaths were environmental and most of his lives were lost by giving them away
Honestly, seeing all the "Scar is better with others." Comment's are hilarious, because he literally one Secret Life, no alliances and everyone he was kind of like the bad guy the whole time. Happy he won though!
This has a wedge in my brain now.
I was looking for Scar animatics, and you didn't disappoint! I love the little twirl at the beginning and the magic dotted throughout!
I've also been searching for animatics to this song and I think yours is the best one! Every image fits the lyrics, and you handled the build-up at the end perfectly!
Overall, great job!
I love that scar's eyes go purple when he dies it's such a deatail. Seriously good work
This was really amazing. Your storytelling made me sympathize with last Life Scar and for the first really understand Scar's Last Life story I think. Thank you for making this, I am truly glad I found it.
what do you MEAN this is your first animatic??? You have a really good grasp on transitions and composition! I loved it!
so so cool! last life scar the silliest (and most pathetic) of guys
Incredible animation (especially for your first animatic) and every scene was so creative! Also, love this animation at 0:42 (and scar's expressions are amazing!)
That was beautiful, top tier "AMAAZIN" even. This is probably my favorite character design for Scar I've seen and the animating is great too. Good job😊
Two words. Chef's Kiss.
The pinpoint accurate progression (especially about scar going crazy), the way you put the life-trading contracts and how he gave them. Absolutely beautiful, 10/10, would watch again, would recommend.
Also, the description at the beginning gave me a bit of a kick!
I watch Grian's videos and see a lot of Scar, this makes me want to watch his next life series. You did such a great job!
the fact that you still heart comments just shows your dedication youtube! you are awesome :D
YOOOO THIS IS AWESOME!! My favorite part is Scar’s twirl, but literally every bit of this is AMAIZING and super well done
Man I hope Scar gets to see this at some point if he hasn't already.
I think this explains Scar's series very accurately, also, this amv and music depicts Imposter Syndrome and Non-existent social life very finely.
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG!!! I especially love the bit at 0:56 , you’ve really portrayed his character perfectly! And the animation is just BRILLIANT!! Well done :D
This is amazing, i especially love how scar spins with the crystals around him!! I want to rewatch scar's last life now, this made me emotional 😭✨ great job!!
This is awesome! I know I’m late, but this animation is actually pretty emotional! Now I feel bad for scar 😢 👏 great job!
OH MY GODS THIS IS SO GOOD. THE FRAMES, THE TRANSITIONS, THE SONG CHOICE, IT WAS ALL AMAZING
2:08 tango in the background lmao
bro flipping, who is that, bdubs?, off lol
Only 400 views?! This needs more attention!
DUDE THIS IS SO GOOD FOR YOUR FIRST ANIMATIC OH MY GOD WHAT HOW???? I LOVE THIS SOS MUCH OMG OMG OMGGGGG
The best moment was Etho picking up the tnt.
Also the way you took inspiration from previous animatics, I think I saw a Rusty Courage reference in there (or maybe just a coincidence) but the art style looks so good.
omg you noticed it! Since i am still a newbie in animations, I watched a looot of animatics and took some ideas here and there. and yea, Rusty was one of my biggest inspirations 😄
DUDE THIS IS SO COOL!! I LOVE THE LIL TRANSITION BITS TOO!! likethe scar jumping and the. THE BOUNCINESS OF THE FRAMES??? and just. cannot put it into words how cool this is :D
omw to rewatch last life now ahah
WAIT EXCUSE ME 1:45 1:49 THIS IS SO!!!! /pos again i cannot put into words HOW MUCH i adore this :0
You have to @ scar! He said he wants to be notified when someone makes something like this. He usually leaves comments and it’s really awesome. I feel like if he watched this he’d be gasping at every new transition or event depicted so well. This is amazing, he’d definitely love it.
HOLD UP THIS IS YOUR FIRST ANIMATIC? NO WAY THIS IS YOUR FIRST ONE, THIS IS SO WELL MADE FOR A FIRST ANIMATION
I’m late, whatever. I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet, or if this is even what it’s supposed to be, but when Scar dies his eyes turn the Watcher purple, because he’s become a spectator! If this is what you intended, incredible. If not, I have made a connection from being obsessed with Evo lol
If you pause at the right moment, the watcher symbol will appear on of his eyes 👀
@@chippie_bee Ah! I see it now. Awesome.
I think I've watched this about 10 times now. This is insane!!!
>:OOOOO BRO NO
I..I.. JUST.. WHAT???? BRO I LOVE YOUR STORY TELLING WITH THE SONG! that must’ve taken a crap ton of time to do I give so much props and for this being your first (??? Bro what???) animatic it’s, it’s just so impressive! Definitely subbed now
The lyrics of the song and the beat fit perfectly with your animatic
This is so smooth and GORGEOUS!!!! You’re an INCREDIBLE artist!!!! Keep doin’ your thing!!!!
HOLY-- This was incredible!! I'm blown away from how good this is, oh my goodness! I absolutely adore the way Scar's story is shown here. I especially love the animation where Scar spins around with the gem stones! This was so so good, you did an amazing job with the animating and backgrounds!
Whole thing's great, but I especially love the tiny flying scar throughout the choruses
ONE OF THE BEST ANNIMATION IVE SEEN OF LAST LIFE. and ive seen ALOT
Wait what?! How does a video this grear have only this many views on such a small channel?? Scar needs to see this :p
This is amazing, great job.
This is so AMAZING JSDHFJSDHFJ I LOVE THE ANIMATIC JSHFDJH
around the 2 Minute mark has to be my favourite part! I love the red swirls showing he is about to murder!
Dude this rocks, I'm just sad I'm late to the party! Don't ever stop 😁
This is incredible!!!!! The pacing the emotion the correlation to the song, everything is perfect!!
Your Scar was so cute! The way you animated him was so adorable!
Chuckled out loud on 1:37 moment xD
Really nice animatic! You did so many frames and drew so many people! You can see how much love and work were put into this animatic!
Incredible!!!
How dare this not have more views! First of all, you made the story fit so well with this song! Second the pacing just flows so well! And third, first animation!? My guy save some skills for the rest of us! jk jk
Still haven't forgiven Scott for waging war against the most charismatic people on the server. If Rendog wasn't their to help him with the final fight with Joel, he would've lost.
interesting take, but i still haven't forgiven joel for doing what he did. (everything). i was rooting for scott and pearl. which is why i loved double life so much.
