The feeling of waking up from one nightmare into another. A short animated film. Music by Leif Baker.
whiny narcissist can't stand not being the centre of attention. that blue haired chick needs to get over herself!!
Пиздец, вы что с делали с сказкой шизофреники?
HELLO WHY DOES THIS FEEL EXACTLY LIKE ME??? I’m a trans guy who goes by Silas and I often have issues with feeling like my friends don’t care about me… THIS IS SO SO CRAZY UHMM THIS IS GOING IN MY PLAYLIST OF THINGS I ALWAYS THINK ABOUT
clicked because astronomy reference, cried because relatable
4:10 i-im not crying! you are
Percy- Jackson?
What a nice short film! The ending reminds me of something from my childhood. A bedside lamp and a string of bright stars.
i feel like the two other characters like each other
this was literally me in my old trio icl
Not super important but the blue haired guy has top surgery stars and i think that's pretty neat :] 0:41
Love it
While Silas’s feelings of rejection by their friends is definitely relatable and understandable, I did notice something too. Parker was also playing the piano that night. Silas didn’t want to engage or watch their performance, so could that be seen in Parker’s eyes as Silas not caring? Just a thought, hope I don’t sound ignorant as that’s not my intent. I just see a lot of comments about feeling shut down when you try to open up about your interest, but I just thought it’d be interesting to comment about another perspective too.
You are an excellent story teller🩵🩵
I want to see much more of this on the main pages of youtube, this is the kind of art that deserves widespread recognition
this is so beautiful omg!! your style is so pretty too!! the textures are all so beautiful <33
Nostalgia is crazy, god i haven't heard this story in a while. Amazing animation. And the final phrase is a great touch.
Thanks for using my real life to inspire you making this animation about my life. -The Real “Silas”
Omg, I feel this guy’s pain so badly, people will always let you talk but they are always never really listening, at least for this guy and people like me. And he’s already my favorite character here.
i just noticed the top surgery scars!!! yo!!
Who else noticed the top surgery scars?
<3
Oh this hit the style of those old animations on the head so hard, I love it. And all the little subtle signs, like the crown being crooked, them both chaning shape to show how they are seeing the world through the same lense etc. Such a charming piece!
The fact I had deja vu in the middle of watching this is crazy.
After watching this I don't feel cranky today but happy
Me and my best friends we are making the seen my name is Gaurangi and my best friend name is mevaan
I know that feeling ... Even if I'm a little like his little friend too at times
This movie made me feel warm and fuzzy, bringing back the nostalgic and comforting feelings of my childhood. There is a certain magic in it that captivates me, and I enjoyed watching it multiple times ♥
I am so in LOVE with the art style and the textures omg, and the story is so cute❤
This really reminds me of my childhood watching Charlie and Lola
incredible voice acting!
and so natural drawing... wow :0
this is something i found myself in. thanks :)
There should be a word for this feeling… they’ve captured it so perfectly here! Constantly with friends who mean no ill but you still feel alone and left out. Plus the topic for their discussion and the others disinterest hit me hard as well. I read a lot of philosophy and love discussing issues and ideas but that doesn’t interest anyone so I’m usually cut off… sometimes disappearing into a shell seems like the perfect thing but then you remember that you’ve established yourself as an extravert and if you take some time off, people start questioning. Sorry if this makes no sense
Это чистое искусство! Мне так нравится ВСЕ в этой короткометражке. Цветовые решения, текстуры, анимация, звуки. Каждый кадр хочется разглядывать. Получаю огромное удовольствие от всего этого. У нас есть сборник авторских мультфильмов по сказкам - Гора самоцветов - и вот там тоже каждый мультфильм выполнен в интересной авторской стилистике. Очень напомнило)
I think this was the best explanation of entropy I've seen.
Nice
😮
<3
i was gonna comment on how much of a bitch silas is but since a lot of neurodivergent people relate to them i wont but i will say that 1. this art is fantastic 2. id like to learn more about these characters
i felt this, i know exactly how it feels to feel lonely when you arent alone.
Love the mix media
holy shit, this is the rimsky korsakoffee house in pdx, that's so cute!
This whimsical and upbeat short lifted my spirit today. Thank you for your work.
Very cute. I like the characters and the colors🫶
I needed this. Rejection sensitivity is something Im getting better at handling, but its still hard sometimes. watching this makes the challenge become a little easier and shows perspective a little better
I have regenction sensitivity disforia or at least i think i do and yeah it sucks when i get slightly ingored once and then i think about it for the whole day TwT
silas kinda frustrated me. his friends gave a shit and were listening but sometimes having food as well but on a whole they were hearing him out and interested in what he was saying, but… if a friend had come their to play piano then of course that’s gonna halt the conversation because that person is having THEIR time in the spotlight, silas was talking and they were listening but once it’s gig time it’s time to listen to the person play! i understand silas’s pov but it seemed a little selfish to just blame the friends, i feel that he should’ve just said how he felt
This hits close to home, feels like whenever I try to infodump about my hyperfixations/special interests but no one ever wants to listen 🥲
THE ART IS SOSIDHSHS😊 12:31 am 18 August 2024
This is so awesome!!!! I love the storyline and character designs :0 could I have their pronouns?
So basically his life after the meteor is a lie? Like bro thinks his “friends” just randomly went up to him in complete worry, I’m not really sure what this shirt is trying to say with the meteor thing but if I had to guess is, life doesn’t go the way you wanted, people in the world have problems which leads to them not caring for others, so you have to pretend like it’s nothing and sometimes people DO care about you or… that it’s not realistic what the blue dude wanted so you have to hope that magic can save your problems, which will never happen. Either this is a way of telling you reality, or just a way of giving you hope that people do care about you but not at an extent that you wish from a good friend but that it can still happen and it’s better than nothing.
Tori always be spitting facts 🗣️‼️
