    Animatic by me @JamieWoolleyArt
    (Snufkin’s saying some Big Words coming from someone who was essentially either freaking out or on the verge of freaking out over Moomin being gone for the entire book haha)
    I actually really liked Moominvalley in November. I felt like it was a very apt and powerful look at grief, that doesn’t shy away from the negative feelings while still managing to feel uplifting. This scene really stuck with me.
    Bonus points for Toft leaving this conversation and then a little while later being like “Why does everyone even like that guy anyway??” I laughed so hard ahaha.
    There is no sound for this video don’t worry.
    What else would you like to see from me animatic wise? I’d love suggestions that already include voice acting!
    Transcript from the scene:
    TOFT: Are you there? Little Nummulite, how are you?
    NUMMULITE: GROWLS
    TOFT: It’s me, Toft.
    SNUFKIN: It’s going to be a wooden-spoon… Were you frightened by something?
    TOFT: There is no family any longer. They’ve deceived me.
    SNUFKIN: I don’t believe that. Perhaps they just want to be in peace for a while.
    SNUFKIN: There’s the sugar. They’re sure to come home some time.
    TOFT: Some time! She must come now, she’s the only one I care about!
    SNUFKIN: I wonder what it is that Moominmamma cares about...
    TOFT: ……
    SNUFKIN: You want to be careful not to let things get too big!
    Thanks everyone!

    That last Snufkin's sentence was one of my faves from that book. Snufkin showed a lot of wisdom there. Poor Toft tho. This animatic is amazing!

    This was my fave moomin book! If you havent read then you can buy them cheep second hand online. Be ready for the feels! And Snufkin getting what he deserves for being so casual about his friendship with moomintroll.

    • @ichigoeater
      @ichigoeater 3 роки тому +13

      I dunno about that. Isn't it just the first time he himself had been forced to love with an open hand, as Moomintroll had to with him? Though it's definitely a solid interpretation that Snufkin took the Moomins for granted by never expecting them to leave, I don't think casual is the right word. I doubt he'd stay in one place for 3/4 of the year if that was the case, given his need and desire to wander. Either way, I'm sure their friendship would become even healthier once reunited.

      @@ichigoeater he also didnt THINK it would change. Like -moomin always writes a letter- is the biggest thing he was complacent about. (Not the letter, but moomin not acting how snufkin thinks he will ) moomin is, in snufkins eyes, predictable?

      @@cottencandykitten You know, that's kind of odd for Snufkin, isn't it? Things change around him all the time, he expects and even looks forward to it. Yet, he got blindsided by the Moomins leaving on a whim.
      Yup.
      Definitely complacent.

    It's been a long time since I read Moominvalley in November so I have to ask: is this the last time we ever see Snufkin in the books?
    If so, what a poignant final note he plays for us before hoisting the rucksack onto his back and walking away for the last time.
