INFO ABOUT ROOTCLAN
Rootclan are a group of cats that have made their homes in the roots of trees, deep underground. While they used to be a relatively normal clan, this quickly changed when their deputy introduced them to a kittypet named Queenie.
She brought with her a strange religion, and garnered devotion from cats of both clan & kittypet origin.
-
While based loosely on the animation meme, this became more of an experimental amv where I tried out a bunch of new techniques and frame rates.
You can probably see me improve drastically in my animation quality from the beginning, compared to the second half.
My favourite part of the amv personally is Wrenstar’s nightmare sequence- pulled directly from the film, I worked my hardest to really do justice to this scene. And yes, I did animate every… single… ant. I put a flickering vignette around scenes in this sequence to differentiate it from the rest of the amv, so hopefully folks that haven’t seen the film pick up on it being a dream.
A huge thanks to all of the folk who supported me through this project. Everyone who commented on my wips, and joined my livestreams- y’all really helped me get through this amv so quickly
A special thanks to my close friends, rod and moldy, and members of the murder by bramble server for hyping me up so much :,)

going bonkers over how good this is wtf i love this crossover i love it
question though, how does charlie die in this version? since we can't have nut allergies or cars or whatnot... and it still has to be accidental...
also also, naming peter deerleg is brilliant and heinous omggggg 💀😭
Most people don’t catch onto why he’s called DEERleg 💀 apart from his physical stature
Pigeon gets given yew berries by a cult member at the house party (Bridget is a kittypet), when she has a reaction Deer grabs her and tries to make it to camp, taking a risky shortcut on the thunderpath
While running on the road, a light blinds him, and on top of this, a Buck leaps out onto the road right in front of him
In the heat of the moment he drops pigeonkit and she tumbles across the road, where she is decapitated by a motorcyclist swerving to avoid hitting the deer
And yes, Deerleg is still a stoner. Weed is catnip which they nickname ‘mint’ 💀
@@classfelidae OOOHHH yea that makes sense- absolutely brutal though omggggg. i'm guessing that's partly why he drops pigeon too, bro is stoned, panicked and just got blinded/scared by a buck, poor dude... i can only imagine the horrified, shocked walk home
@@lunar_proxy to make it worse, he picks her up and places her back in her nest. (He still refuses to look, and uses scent to locate her body)
Wren finds her in the morning, when going to wake her for her apprentice ceremony
@@classfelidae NOOOOO THAT'S FOUUUL NOT BEFORE THE APPRENTICE CEREMONY 😭god that's so awful i love it
1:50 you captured her terrified face so wonderfully here! Her silent screaming had such horrifying vibes in the movie and you imitated that very well!!
I love this movie so much it’s one of my favorites
Thank you!! I had toni collette’s face on my canvas to reference at all time
1:22 made me chuckle a bit. Deerleg is obviously terrified but little pigeonkit looks more annoyed that her sleepy-time got interrupted XD
I laughed so much when Rookwhisker just splashed some water on Wrenstar, and that was all it took for her to stop being possessed.
He does that in the movie! He splashes her with a glass of water :P
Steve (rook) is unironically very funny in the film, he has some of the best dry humour quotes, which are made funnier by Gabriel’s acting.
He’s a severely underrated character
Seeing the process is so amazing. You go from what were concepts, storyboarding, rough sketching to finally be satisfied with a project and see a community come together to see such work of art. Art amazing as always.

I personally knew nothing about Hereditary prior to seeing this project. Watching your progress on it and seeing all the love and work you poured into this animation made me so excited to see the final piece. Your work with the lighting, the movements, the pacing, character design, all are phenomenal !! I can't help but wanna rewatch it over and over and was so glad I made it to the premiere. Keep up this AMAZING work, Charlie!!
1:49 the way her face twists from shock into disbelief into anguish is just pulling at my heartstrings hhsbsgeubdujs
i feel like it'd be tough to maintain hereditary's atmosphere in a warrior cats setting but you absolutely pulled it off!! love the art direction and designs here and 1:49 is just such a good shot- this project is so impressive, almost makes me want to create warriors versions of my favorite horror films. fantastic work!
I like noticing the grandmother and the “medium” lady in the beginning pointing down looking at pigeonkit (or the family in general)👌
I'm so glad it's completed! The animation is really great, I especially like the movements of the Wren and her “saggy” fur. The lighting and backgrounds are also good, my favorite scene is where Wren sees the deer dead, the slow realization and horror are perfectly conveyed! It's difficult to capture people's characters and convey them through drawn cats, but you did it and did it incredibly! This is a very big project and you should be proud of yourself !
Thank you so much! I really appreciated how you were always commenting on my community tab
I’m glad you enjoyed the finished product and I hope to make more in time
The subtle motions that give these characters story and life is so good! But especially Rook's head nod going like "There!" at the end when he wakes up Wren.
HERE IT IS. The amount of work you put in it was ungodly but also how FAST and hardworking u were is so impressive. The fact that u were able to animate this masterpiece shows how much you improved, and in a relatively short time.
The character animation is so fluid, creative and expressive. Really professional level. The tweened parts look phenomenal as well, you got the puppet motion on point.
Another extraordinary element are the expresssions. You really nailed the emotions.
The character designs, backgrounds, colors, shading. And the small details translating the original lore into that AU! I admire your big brain.
All of that is top tier and together they make for a great experience. I hope you get A LOT of praise for it bc you really deserve it
Thank you so much moldy 💞💞👹👹💞👹💞💞💞
Ur essay comments mean so much to me I hope u know that u little nerd
I get Hereditary brainrot from time to time because it's such a great film but it's hard to because its themes terrify me on a personal level. This AU is a great way of experiencing it without scaring myself half to death! And I love cats so this is awesome!!
The atmosphere, the shots, the character designs, it's all so eerie and I adore it!!
God you really captured the utter horror that Annie wears on her face throughout the film- I wonder about the translation of Charlie's death in this au?
I’m aware this comment was made a while ago, however you’re about to find out… I’m almost done with the storyboard for the next project ;)
I am at loss of words! This AMV is done so well! The way you use rough lines is a really creative idea and it really makes the AMV seem more hectic! You manage to combine anatomy and animation so well! This is top tier! See, I have heard Disney wants an animator back....
This crossover is absolutely amazing(from what I’ve seen so far), even the concepts are as amazing too! I’m so excited to see this unravel.
wow.
why do the cats look perfectly like the actors?!?! this is incredible stuff. I'm honestly blown away. I'm a huge fan of hereditary, I could see every frame you were pulling from. Annie is dead on, but your peter especially - absolutely fantastic.
Thank you so much!!
A lot of studying. Likeness was incredibly important to me when creating these designs.
I thought oriental cats would be the most suitable to represent Annie and peter, since both Toni and Alex have kind of long faces.
Attempted to make Deerleg look a little awkward and lanky like peter appears in the film.
Steve’s facial stripes represent his glasses, personally i struggled a lot with Steve initially but my friend suggested I make his stripes glasses and it worked wonders
Joan isn’t in the main animation, you can spot her right at the a24 intro, locked tails with Ellen, is actually based on my own cat, pepper, since she has immaculate Joan energy. The roundness, the kind demeanour, but she’s actually evil LOL
I’ve got a lot more art of these guys on my community tab if you ever want to have a look!
IT'S HERE! You definitely didn't disappoint with this one! It was awesome to get the chance to follow this project, from the storyboards to completion 🎉
THIS WAS SOO GOOD DEFINITELY WORTH THE WAIT!!, i love the drawing at the end with the trees that spell "A24" SUCH A GOOD DETAIL
I just stumbled up on this video and watched it, I was so curious to what the story intaled and looked up the film. I am back after watching the film and can safely say. I'm shocked, amazed, and awed. The film was so unnatural that it was Beautiful. Looking back on the animation I can see each scene and it is amazing!
Lovely real spooky real film, Probably going to be real paranoid for a while. But in all seriousness thank you for showing up randomly on my fyp. 💕
Glad to hear this made you watch the movie! The paranoia is normal, I do suggest you rewatch some time in the future because there’s a lot of appreciation within the foreshadowing
2:16 I can see him hissing. Like that low, threatening hiss cats do when they’re about to attack.
Seeing both my favourite horror movie, and a book series I’ve longed to for my whole childhood brought together, god I love it.
IM SO EXCITED I BEEN WATCHING THIS PROJECTS PROCESS SINCE DAY 1 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
REAL
I keep coming back to this. Warrior cats crossover amvs are hard to pull off for me, but this is incredible. The timining with the music is great. the expressions are prob my favorite part - you use facial expressions and body language so incredibly effectively I'm inn awe. That scream in the dream in particular is just incredible - how you translated such an iconic expression onto feine anatomy is amazing !
i’ve been waited for this since storyboard, i watched some of your streams and i have no words how to describe this masterpiece! the fact that you animated in PROCREATE where only one aniating layer is available just inspires me as hell
AWWW TYSMMM
I turn the layers into layer groups! This means u can have layers inside ur frames!!
@@classfelidaeTHANK YOU FOR THIS ADVICE it saved me /literally
2:21 no demon cat *splashes holy water*
1:49 THIS SCENE OMG THIS SCENE
IM SO OBSESSED WITH YOUR STYLE AAA also the part where she sees the corpse is amazing!!!! The change in expression was BEYOND PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YESSSSS THE DAY HAS COME!!! I knew this was gonna be absolutely STELLAR from the storyboard alone and just...wow!!! I adore the character designs and expressions - they're very true to the movie!! Amazing AMAZING job on this!!
1:50 this shot is insane??? So awesome to see this finished, it came out amazing!!
THIS IS AMAZING. i remember first watching the storyboard ages ago and OH MY GOSH WAS THE WAIT WORTH IT!!!! this is stunning- im so impressed by how shaded and detailed this is while remaining so fluid! genuinely amazing freakin job- def one of my new favorites amvs now
I WAS WAITINT FOR THIS OMFG!!!! I WATCHED EVERY UPDATE ON TIKTOK
I don’t know how you managed to draw a cat that looks almost exactly like Toni Collette, but you sure nailed it.
I CANT WAITT

I'm kinda bitter I missed premiere for irl reasons but now that I finally watched this, after seeing whole process on tiktok it's safe to say it's my new favorite thing! It mixes storyline from movie with logic and rules of warriors world SO well,not to mention the animation itself is absolutely gorgeous along with character designs!
I've been watching the process of this animation since the start pretty much, and I adored watching how everything was put together! You got me into Sleepwalk and I plan on watching Hereditary eventually, and I cannot wait to see more future animations ^^

HELL YEAH THIS IS AMAZING! I’ve watched Heriditary just only early in the months and it got me so hooked to see you finishing this!
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT! IT LOOKS SO COOL!!
It was SO FUN watching the process. Definitely my favorite warriors related Halloween project to come out this year!! Phenomenal work!
This amv has really left an impression on me, I keep coming back to it and thinking about it at random! Such gorgeous art and imagery. This deserves more views!
CHARLIE THIS WAS AMAZING, THE COLORS, EVERYTHING WAS BEAUTIFULLY MADE!!

This is such an interesting concept, I never wouldve thought the two could work so well together!
i ended up looking into the movie after seeing this for context and it only amplified my liking for this video, everything is so beautifully done!
Amazing!! Been following the process on TikTok and was super excited to see this ❤ Looks super good!
I have been watching the progress of this from TikTok and I must say, this is the best Sleepwalk AMV I have ever seen! I have fallen in love with your style since seeing this and I WILL be returning to see more!
SO EXCITEDDD!!!
This is amazing. Hereditary imo is genuinely the best horror film ever created. This was such a creative idea for a warriors au I love it
waited so long for this amv and it turned out so good! love it!

Absolutely amazing work as usual!!! I adored watching you create this!
SO EXCITEDDDDD
This looks SO MUCH MORE AMAZING THAN I EXPECTED- this is absolutely stunning HOLY SHOOT
THIS LOOKS GREAT im so honored to have gotten the chance to see the progress
I’ve been following this animation on tik tok! i’ve joined lives, seen the progress shots, and even made fanart for these characters. im so in awe in how this turned out and i absolutely love it. definitely my favorite animation of all time!!!
This is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! I'm a huge fan of the storyboard already, and seeing it truly brought to life made my day!! Amazing work, here. The experimental style (and the expressions, WOWIE!) gives this a certain vibe that perfectly fits the graveness of the story (of which I'm not familiar with the source material lmao) so well! Give yourself a pat on the back!
Words can’t describe how much I LOVE this. I have so much love for both warrior cats and hereditary so seeing this put together is absolutely phenomenal. You’re such a talented artist and I can definitely see myself rewatching this 10000 times. Great work!
This is amazing! I love animation memes and horror crossovers-- I always assumed that Hereditary would be too difficult to work with, but this is incredible! I love how you translated the events of the movie into something that could be recreated with cats, it's all incredibly creative.
oh my god, this just looks so eye pleasing! Been watching your progress since the start on tiktok, and it’s so cool to see the finished product! You got done with this unbelievably fast, and i absolutely love it.
HOLY COW THIS IS MIND BLOWING!!! ITS SO SO GOOD!!!
Watched hereditary because of this a few days ago, this project was amazing and I am so glad it introduced me into this amazing movie
I've been here since day 1 and im so excited to see it finished!! edit: it was incredible!! you outdid yourself!
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND I'VE BEEN WAITING SINCE THE START HEREDITARY IS ON OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE MOVIES I AM LITERALLY IN LOVE THIS IS SO AMAZING MAN
Wow I loved this! you made it look so creepy! And I love this song! that part with the fire was so well done, really showed her dark side through her lack of sleep and insanity.
Nice work!! This looks awesome!!

WOW i couldn’t be more impressed!!! the story told with just this amv portrays so much and it’s so cool to see how you took certain scenes from the movie and made them fit a situation involving cats instead !! so so so amazed :)

CHARLIEEE THIS CAME OUT SOOOO GOOD!! i love love LOVE how to possession scene turned out and especially the freaky ant dream sequence … ough this is incredible. worth the wait this is soo good
FINNALY❤❤❤! The song finnaly combined with the idea of the animatic!!!) I am sorry, but it's rare in our days. The animatic illustrated clearly the idea of the "problem", without text explanations. Wonderful! GREAT JOB!)
My words could be a little bit toxic, but I am really glad! But you can throw an iron boot at me😅
Absolutely love this crossover! Great work dude!
