This animatic covers the first 6 sessions of Secret Life (the series was too long to fit into one animatic)
Gosh golly that was a journey wasn't it? This was once again such a massive 250+ hour project! Which hadn't originally been the plan but here we are! I'm super happy I can finally share this with you guys! I hope you enjoy!!
Thank you all so much for the support, without you guys I wouldn't have ever made a second Life Series animatic, let alone a fifth!!
If you're reading this before the premiere then make sure you head on over to / misskatyrow for the animatic afterparty we always do after an animatic has premiered :)
Or if you're here after the premiere, you can still head on over to Twitch to check out the art and gaming we do there. A lot of animatic work is done on streams :D

Song: Feed the Machine by Poor Man's Poison
I just did the art ^^

Just a little info on future projects for those interested:
I had originally planned to make two shorter animatics, hence the cliffhanger. The second animatic is already planned out and half of the sketches have been done. However, this first animatic didn't end up being any less time intensive than any other projects and I finished it far later than I wanted to. With plans for a new Life Series on the horizon I'm still undecided if I commit to a part two Secret Life animatic, or wait to see if the new Life Series inspires me to make an animatic there. I don't want to perpetually be playing catchup.
On that note, I'll have to see if I'm inspired to make another animatic of the next Life Series. I wasn't as inspired in Secret Life as I've been for the other series and that made this project less enjoyable than the others so far. I still enjoyed it and am really happy with the end product, but we'll have to see what the future holds :D
I know a lot of you guys really enjoy and rewatch animatics and look forward to new ones whenever a new Life Series airs. I appreciate your support so much and I adore the community we've build here of the last almost three years! I wouldn't have continued making animatics after Who Are You Really if it hadn't been for the overwhelming love you guys have shown for my craft. I read every single one of your comments and appreciate every single one of you that takes the time out of your day to interact with a stranger's art on the internet.
But I also have to be honest and true to myself. If I spend hundreds of hours on projects that I'm not as passionate about, instead of investing my time in art I love and stories I truly want to tell, then that won't work for me in the long run.
Like I said, I might make a part two of Secret Life. I really like the song and the storyboard ideas. And I might continue to make Life Series animatics if the new series inspires me with it's stories. But I don't want to give false promises. Who knows what the future holds and what will inspire me to work on these massive projects. I can just hope you're interested enough in my art and storytelling that you'll stick along for the ride :D

Great physics
every time I see all the winners together in your animations it never fails to give me chills so o want one of those
OMG PLS SAY ITS A TWO PARTER WOOOO
Will there be a pat 2 for the rest of the seris
Martyn's death: shield breaks, gets killed by a piglin brute
Lizzie's death: *BEES*
It wasn’t a death though
lol
Void eye bee appreciation
The shield doesn’t actually break when hit by an axe, it just gets disabled for a few seconds
It was not a death, it was her task
The golden feather going around Jimmy and Lizzie was so smooth and the scroll opening as well an each frame was done beautifully, it was very enjoyable
I love the siluettes in the beginning. It looks amazing
especially how it circles around jimmy's neck like a noose
@fieryhephestus I was gonna ask if that was intentional or just my morbid brain! I love that! Also it may be a coincidence because there is a lot of falling, but there is a clip in the double life animation of Jimmy going out first (as a last life flashback), and lizzie falls in that same pose. Coincidence?
Curse, lifted!
Need to add Mumbo to that now
0:57 syncing Joel's fall with "bring them back down to their knees" Was a subtle but smart move.
YES and at 1:10 with Bdubs "hes got the whole world in his hands" it all syncs up so well
1:07 “watch it all burn”
2:15 “it was nice to know ya”
2:37 “they ain’t gonna make it out alive today”
The fucking shot of Scar hiding from Martyn and Joel with his diamond helmet on is SENDING ME, that’s hilarious. And the little scribbles on Scott’s wanted poster! Also Martyn flailing on the edge of the platform and Scott looking at him like “this bitch-“ ICONIC
LANGUAGE😂
That shot with the heart foundation guys looking like some kpop boy band album cover though
I'm surprised we didn't get a similar looking shot for Gem and the Scotts.
@@EpicNerdsWithCameras that would have been awesome
Definitely got "dating sim characters" vibes from that shot.😂
@@daesikil4596 you know i'd never played a dating sim, but that one might do it for me.
Lowkey that was my favourite frame
One of the things I find funny is that ever since Double Life Everen just doesn’t draw Pearl with her normal skin and just always has her in her Scarlet Cloak
5am Pearl will forever remain in my heart
@@EverenArt 5am Pearl will forever live on in all of our hearts
I mean, do we even want to see Pearl any other way? Just bad ass. (Btw, I’ll take Pearl anyway I can get, she’s such a loveable character).
I mean, as someone who comes by this series more by the Animatics, have consistent character designs makes my life
Significantly easier.
The last shot of Gem with the Zombie curse was amazing.
omg yeah you could see the pure terror in her face knowing what she had to do - i honestly feel so bad for her with all that hate she got when it wasn’t her fault at all :[
@@hotteamonke I seriously don't get the toxic life series community sometimes, like they gotta poke at every small thing that doesn't go the usual way. They even lashed at Martyn for the LimLife victory kill, so much so that Cleo had to publicly say that it was ok for them to shut up. As if fairness was ever a thing in The Life Series.
@@hotteamonkeshe got hate? Damn I’m glad I seem to have tailored my community experience to the non toxic side, that’s terrible
@@Wurmze she somewhat did. People were angry cuz the zombie apocalypse was the reason behind so many deaths within 1 episode, and the season ended quickly. So people blamed gem for causing it.
@@rudrodeepchatterjee thing is it wasn't even her fault she got chosen to begin with, so the people who get mad over this kind of stuff weren't even correct by their own logic
1:09 "He's got the whole world in his hands" while showing Bdubs globe is very clever!:)
I think the shot of BigB in the CobbleRooms was my favorite one, he looks so ominous
He ready to start Gaslighting some folks!
Man was on a mission this season - Spread paranoia via strange holes and mazey corridors. It was very effective xP (and funny)
Everen always puts in the effort to make BigB look fantastic.
Reminds me of that grian frame in the double life animatic
@@beanofknowledge2125 Too bad Big B appeared so rarely in this. He really brought some of his content from outside Minecraft into the Life Series
3:20 Jimmy's feather circling the first final death- the canary curse, broken. PERFECT 👌👌👌
I think a lot of people are saying that it isn't truly broken yet, just that the curse was taken on by Lizzie when she joined the server again. We will just have to see how the next life series goes to see how the lore aspect of it is gonna work.
@@T0x1cRa1n I personally don't think Lizzie truly died, just kept falling. It would explain why Scar didn't die after he won.
@@familytablet6453Woah. What? I need to sit down… That, that is a good theory.
@@PRINCEofNONE i didnt coin it, though. i just heard it and it made sense.
@@familytablet6453 Thats... a very good theory dang.
The canary feather still circling around Jimmy's neck even after first circling Lizzie was -chefs kiss - (also the shot of Rengo was also brilliant)
Fingers crossed Ren makes it to the next one, just as Lizzie did here-hopefully not getting first out, either
Wait, what was Rengo ?
@@arthelierre5448 Ren filled in for Tango during Week 6-similar to how Lizzie filled in for Pearl and Gem filled in for Cleo in Limited Life
@@arthelierre5448 there was a week where Tango couldn't record so Ren took over his account and played, pretending to be Tango the entire time. It was brilliant and it was a nice way to include Ren when he hadn't be able to be a part of the series.
@@dannieandrews ooooh okay, thank you both, I wasn't aware at all ! Well, time for me to go watch Tango POV I suppose 😅
2:43 this literally matches the feeling of watching martyn's episode while he's in the backrooms hiding
Dude that moment was so terrifying! Knowing he was the last red! Defo the right choice watching Martyn’s POV first that week!
Dude that moment was so terrifying! Knowing he was the last red! Defo the right choice watching Martyn’s POV first that week!
@@EverenArtwhy twice?
@@TemmienjoyerProb UA-cam being drunk again.
Joel falling down towards Grian with the temporary soul bind connecting them? Amazing! 🤩
I can't wait to see how much you've improved, let's goo!!!
Oh, hi Drawlistics
Let’s see!! I bet they have improved a lot!
Oh, you're here too? Nice to see you here too, dude!! ❤❤
Ayo Hi!
This animatic had some of the best parallel imagery with the song ever!! So not only was it a banger choice it was also super relevant, here are just some of the ones I caught
0:48 "We got them now lets break them down a little bit more" the piglin corning Marytn, breaking his shield (and his will) while sending him to his death
0:54 - "Feed the machine" Not much else to say but great depiction on successes literally feeding the machine
0:56 "Bring them all back down to their knees" Joel falling down obviously (and dying) and this ones a stretch but looking at how desperate Grian was not to fail his task/take damage because of Joel I would also say Grian was on his knees in a metaphorical sense haha
1:02 "Aint gonna make it out alive today" RIP torchy
1:04 "Hey you poison the well" damage via poison from the bees
1:07 "Watch it all burn take them straight to hell" This ones very obvious with the burning of the egg
1:09 "Hes got the whole world in his hands" Bdubs' globe!! (technically he called it Mumbo's world which is very cute) I like that his arms are thrown up to give the illusion of him "holding" it
1:12 "It was nice to know ya, we've all been damned come on" Bit of a stretch again but Gem opening the portal did lead to a lot of death in an indirect way. A lot of "damning" if you will
1:28 "Nothing's going on, no need to fear" We love irony in this household. Scar dodging yellows trying to guess his task but being VERY afraid
1:33 "We're all in this together" Just the wholesome heartgivers of the server
1:39 "We want the same thing, this will all be over soon" Gem's task this session was to lie and for some reason she really wanted people to go to the end so technically Bdubs and Gem do want the same thing, just for different reasons. I love how its depected as "manipulative" with her whispering it in his ear just like how it is in the song
1:55 "We're all going to die" On the exact frame the dragon (AMAZING DRAGON) dies with the previous frames being Jimmy and Marytn dying (side note: Martyns death being intentionally hilarious will NOT make him happy hahahah)
2:01 "Bring them all down to their knees" A stretch but man does Cleo look POWERFUL in this. I'monmyknees. I mean what who said that?
2:04 "We aint gonna make it out alive today" RIP Mumbo
2:10 "Take em straight to hell" Literal. Grian skull farming in the nether
2:15 "It was nice to know ya, we've all been damned" The most tragic death of the life series, not only because it was the first but because the only reason Lizzie was there was because Joel asked her to help him kill Scott. She was damned the minute Joel asked.
2:34 "No time to waste" That wither chased Scar for a good 10 minutes
2:38 "We ain't gonna make it out alive today" Another few deaths, Mumbo's being final. I love the way Everen shows Warden deaths, they're so beautiful and dramatic (we ignore it was because of a fence)
2:50 "We've all been damned come on" This is just sinister. Technically all deaths and destruction are just the statues fault in a way and with the final shot of Gem as the boogey was the perfect way to end this
I probably missed some lines but oh well! Better excuse to watch the video again! Amazing work as always!!
Some that are a bit of a stretch as well, but could be considered missed is at 2:42 when Martyn is hiding in from the warden where the song says "Take them straight to hell". The whole experience could be considered "hell", correlating it with the song.
Then at 2:45 when Grian gets the wither star (Is that the name of it? I forgot) the song says "He's got the whole world in his hands", meaning that Grian is holding something as great as the world, and with the uses of the star, it could be considered something as great as the world. This could also be taken in a different approach, where having the "world in your hands" is a bad thing because of how it shows how powerful you are, and could potentially make you a target. This connects with the animatic as well because of how in the frame Grians expression is kind of morbid, almost sad.
Idk just some extra thoughts though.
Just fyi, Gems task WAS to lie the whole session at first, but she realized it was impossible and rerolled for a hard task instead, that task being to bring together a team to defeat the ender dragon.
Yesss peeps noticing all the details just tickles my little lizard brain! Thanks for noticing and listing out all these little details! I love adding them like a scavenger hunt for people to find!
Mhm, Cleo does look *very* powerful, ahem. (metoodon’tworry) COUGH COUGH WOW THE WIND IS CRAZY TODAY
To be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jimmy’s chat threw F’s for those vulgarities in the chorus, once he reacts to it
The look between Grian and Etho when they had to make a wither and a warden fight gave me literal chills! This is amazing!
I especially love the art of Lizzie crying over her failed slumber party! Everything is so good!!!
I love the canary feather going around Jimmy's neck!!!!!
2:32 “Bring ‘em all back down to their knees.” Love this shot! It’s like a reminder to Jimmy that just because he didn’t die first doesn’t mean he’s immortal. Insane job!
2:03 “they ain’t gonna make it out alive today” with Mumbo dying in lava is so insane
The best way I know to properly express how much I love this is to basically commentate it so buckle up
0:07 starting of strong the silhouettes and the music are so creepy and ominous ahh
0:12 the task unrolling and scars face?!! And the winners!???!!!! Man I love this song it’s so ominous
0:42 excuse me bigb!!!
0:44 gem!!!!!!! And impulse’s earring!
0:52 the ‘hey! You! Feed the machine!’ Ahhh this song and the hands pushing succeed!!
1:09 FIRE SO GOOD
1:10 ‘he’s got the whole world in his hands’ with his upside down house with earth on top
1:12 gem putting the last eye in the portal??! So good animation!! And FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
1:21 FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
1:27 ‘nothing’s going wrong’ when scar’s day is clearly going wrong
1:37 Jesus Christ gem you are terrifying
1:40 facial expressions and body language ahhhh why are you so talenteddddd
1:41 ‘this will all be over soon’ what a creepy freaking line omg
1:49 excellent shot of pearl!
1:52 martyn falling off like he lost his balance lol OH AND SCOTTS OUTFIT!!!!
1:56 ‘we’re all gonna die!’ While everyone is dying!
1:58 tango’s hair matching ren’s is so cool
2:00 cleo is terrifying
2:06 ‘they ain’t gonna make it out alive today’ mumbo dying in lava
2:08 WHAT IS THIS SHOT THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE SO GOOD AHH
2:11 ‘take them straight to hell’ grian getting the wither skulls from the nether-hell
2:15 ‘it was nice to know ya, we’ve all been damned’ Lizzie dying and then the canary curse
2:18 noice canary feather
2:23 Jimmy looks so happy aww
2:30 the warden and wither are so cool coming in on beat
2:35 run scar run!!
2:40 omg this SHOT
2:57 the destruction omg
3:01 GEM GETTING THE BOOGEY TASK AND HER EYES TURNING PURPLE!!!!!
omg that was amazing spectacular show stopping
I love how the song matches the vibe I’ve always pictured the series cause in Minecraft it’s funny and like the reds are small children but if you put it in real life wounds don’t heal. They don’t heal. They have these task they *have* to do, but they can’t tell anyone which pushes them apart from their allies who also have a secret. It’s constant pain and fear, and the song I think is brutal enough to encapsulate this
Anyway wow I’m speechless (^^ apparently not lol) it’s incredible
I feel so stupid for not thinking about the potential of wounds not healing, that's so interesting, just like in limlife you can't get back the time you've lost! I agree on everything else this animation is mind blowing
That was so fun to read through! Thanks for leaving your thoughts! I’m happy you enjoyed it🤗
@@EverenArt the winners circling scar with his first task was just beutiful foreshadowing.
I love the frame of Scar with the helmet on, it matches all the emotions he was having in that episode.
I AM OBSESSED
THE FIRST SCENE WITH SCAR AND THE SCROLL, THE HEART FOUNDATION, BIGB AND HIS HALLWAY, GEM AND THE PORTAL!!
EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD
OKAY OKAY THAT WAS ACTUAL PEAAAKKK. Honestly when i watch your previous animations and then watch this one, it's like switching from 1080p to 4k , such a big jump in quality it's insanee. I love the added motion to all of the frames, and the animation of scar grabbing the secret task in the beginning is soo good I had to rewatch that part many times!
It definitely looks like a 250hour + project, so many drawings are wallpaper worthy and yet they only have like a second of screentime, that's how good it is.
Aaahhh thank you so much Drawlistics! Means a lot coming from you my dude!
OMG THIS WAS SO PERFECT!! 1:31 is one of my favourite scenes 'cause it perfectly encapsulates the three: BigB being shifty, Tango being obsessed with power and Skizz genuinely trying to do the right thing while everything else crumbles around him. The warden versus wither shot was probably the coolest in the vid and the scene of Etho just chucking a rock to summon the warden is probably my fave its so so cool!!
Also the perfect timing of everything! Showing Bdubs globe house while singing "He's got the whole world in his hands" is my absolute favourite example of this!!
This is so freaking cool, all the tiny details like the bees, the dragon’s breath, Wither vs Warden, and Mumbo’s hilariously stupid death in the Nether, and that beautiful little canary feather floating around Jimmy and Lizzie was incredible. It’s crazy how you were able to dramatize everything, from the funny moments to the actually terrifying ones. This gave me literal chills, keep up the amazing work!
Lizzie crying when no one showed up to the party had me in shambles😭
Another amazing job Everen! You’re animatics always bring a smile to my face
Alright headcanon time
If anyone is familiar, there's a popular headcanon that the boogyman curse came about as a result of Skizz's bloodlust in Third Life, specifically when he charged headfirst into the Crastle but ultimately fell to Grian.
My belief now is that something similar happened here. Upon seeing the destruction caused by the Warden and Wither, the Watchers had the Secret Keeper unleash the boogyman curse again to continue that cycle of mayhem.
I actually came up with a headcanon that the Watchers were so pissed that Jimmy survived the curse that they caused the wither vs warden and zombie apolocypse as punishment to the server.
Posted it on reddit when it first happened, it was super fun
Or dare I say, they had the curse unleashed to _keep the machine feeding!_
The life series is my favourite gaming series and I never stop watching it, even when I'm not much of a fan of Minecraft it's just sooooo good, sometimes I do get bored of them but when I watch these animatics they tell the story so well and they bring back my love for the series.
I was over Minecraft when I found Double Life n watched just for the sake of understanding the Soulmate mod I heard of. I relate a lot with this comment.
Yeah sadly mojang let me down but the UA-camrs didn't @@citrisaurora1182
2:06 the timing of the command in the song to “poison the well” paired with the two of them getting their task to literally ruin the server by summoning two boss mobs is great
The dogs at 2:00 were straight out of double life. Beautiful work as always Katy, thank you for sharing your talent with this community.
That first shot of Scar surrounded by the winners is just so good.
Someone took a bite out of bdubs’ house
Edit: also super good! The canary feather was a good touch!
I saw someone do this for the last life animatic so I want to do it!

I think this is all right?!? Does anyone know if Katy is planning on doing another animatic for the last sessions?
About the Skizz and Tango talking to Cleo: I think this was when Cleo said she was going to join their group but then decided to team with Etho instead. I could be wrong.
Read the description for info about future animatics
This might be the best animatic I've ever watched. I've never seen something capture the feeling of the Life series so well, no matter what happens, there's no happy ending, there's no relief from the pain, they're all cursed no matter what they do
One of my favorite moments is when Lizzie dies with the song saying 'we've all been damned' and she has the canary curse feather... and when Jimmy is celebrating that his curse is broken, the feather still circles his neck like a noose. There's no escaping death.
3:01 gems ep 7 task was here i think . This was animated amazingly!
I am so bloody excited for this!
HEY! YOU! FEED THE MACHINE! BRING ‘EM ALL BACK DOWN TO THEIR KNEES!
THERE’S NO TIME TO WASTE! REMIND THE SLAVES!
THEY AIN’T GONNA MAKE IT OUT ALIVE TODAY!
NO TIME TO WASTE, REMIND THE SLAVES,
YA AIN'T GONNA MAKE IT OUT ALIVE TODAY!
THERE’S NO TIME TO WASTE!
REMIND THE SLAVES THEY AIN’T GONNA MAKE IT OUT ALIVE TODAY! >:D
No time to waste! Remind the slaves, they ain't gonna make it out alive today
Yo this animatic is gonna be great! I just want to thank for continuing to bring these to us every past life series, no matter how long it takes. If you do any more, there will always be a group of people excited and waiting for it !
Well said
3:00 aw, there was no reference to the boogie plague-- NEVERMIND
Maybe next time
IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!
Wow, and you're telling me this is only the *FIRST HALF* of it?! You've once again gone above and beyond, dang!
Also, I remember there was a really cool Hermitcraft IX animatic that used this same song, so I almost feel nostalgia for it being used in another similar topic animatic.
The song is used even more masterfully here though, I absolutely loved how you corresponded all the lyrics to their fitting imagery, especially with the ''Feed the Machine'' allegory used to symbolize all the completed tasks handed in to the keeper. Also I really appreciate the slower pace of this one, you could have ABSOLUTELY fit the entire thing in this one song, but you decided to favour that over better pacing and music representation, huge respect for that alone, on top of how amazing all the illustrations look. *2:56* I personally especially love how this final scene of everything burning to the ground looks, matches the aftermath of session 6 perfectly. Everything had to rebuild, yet there was no time to, there could only come more chaos until nothing remained.
Pointing out the feather animation at 2:26 because I know you wanted someone to notice and I want to tell you that i noticed
This is such a good animatic. I love realistic Minecraft art and any animatic that makes the life series seem horrifying to be in and you checked both of those boxes. Also the shot of bigb in the hall of doors was so good
It appears I'm not alone in rewatching all your life series animatics ahead of tomorrow :DD
I'm screaming!!! Secret Life was the first series where I watched everyone POV in full so being able to recognize the references and events in this was awesome!!
Gorgeous gorgeous art as always, I absolutely adore this!
Also, I'm only one person but I read the description so please take this as assurance and encouragement to continue leaning towards doing what inspires and motivates you most!
@@dgvamber you may be one person but your words mean loads! Thank you💜
ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHING, THE FEATHER WITH JIMMY AND LIZZIE AND GRIAN AND MUMBO'S DEATHS AND THE ZOMBIE CURSE BEING THE FINAL SHOT... a dark implication of what happens next that needs no reminder, it's only bloodshed from here
The part where mumbo drowns in the lava gave me chills
I can't wait to see jimmy and marten react to this!
GoshDANG that teaser is unREAL with Gems eyes flashing with that iconic boogey purple! As an artist I completely understand burn out or lack of inspiration, but if it means anything, your animatics are the single best piece of art to come out of the life series, and whether it's the part 2 of this or the next season, I cannot wait to see what comes next from this channel!!!!
0:01 THE SONG IS SSOOO FIREEEE
To answer your dilemma on whether to make part 2, I feel like the entire community would absolutely to see it as this and the others you have made have been extraordinary in their ability to glorify an already amazing series. Seeing Scar's rampage, Grian's 1v3, and the Boogey-Apocalypse in your style would be amazing. Great Job!
The real conundrum is the song to pair with it. It’s only three sessions, so it might not need to be long, but what to choose?
In my perspective this song represents really well"feeding the machine" aka watcher with successfully finished tasks, love it! ❤
Also the broken canary curse is done amazingly!
Well, lemme just watch this like 100 times
I am so excited! For starters that thumbnail is unreal!!
I LOVE all the details, from the lyrics matching up to certain moments (nothings going on, no need to fear, feed the “machine”, whole world in his hands, bring them down to their knees,we’re all in this together, let’s blindfold the poor, take ‘em strait to hell (w G collecting wither skulls, etc), to Rengo having a ponytail and sunglasses, the feather around the throat, the poster having graffiti, gem whispering in bdubs ear like the devil, that RIDICULOUSLY cool frame of Cleo w the wolves, grian and Joel being soul bound in that frame, “we’ve all been damned come on” for that last shot of gem and it’s all just SO GORGEOUS and I am GOBBLING IT UP
HOLY CRAP EVEREN!! INCREDIBLE AS ALWAYS- ALSO, I HAVE NO CLUE HOW YOU MADE TANGO FAILING HIS TASK WITH TORCHY LOOK SO EPIC, BUT I'D PAY GOOD MONEY TO PUT 1:02 ON MY WALL- LIKE GEEZ MAN- THE QUALITY IS ASTRONOMICAL THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE VIDEO-
Honestly just incredible, such talent, not just for art but video editing and cinematography as well. Amazing work, brought tears to my eyes it was all so good!
1:27 Scar hiding from Martin and Joel with his diamond helmet XD
I love Gems design! My fav is Gem, Impulse and Scott in a cave!
Knocked it out of the park, as usual. A life series isn't over until Everen uploads and the guys react.😂❤
THE CANARY FEATHER I CANT OMG THIS IS A MASTERPIECE I WANNA EAT IT!!!
The fact that every single part of this is rendered, plus animated/tweened, my mind is actually going crazy trying to think how long this must’ve taken to complete. Your dedication is genuinely admirable, and you should be so proud!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!
THE LYRICS FITTED SO WELL
AND THE ART IS AMAZING
AND THE MOMENTS ARE AMAZING
AND THE SONG IS AMAZING
AND-
AND-
AND-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
as a fellow life series enjoyer, I fully agree with your comment!
2:30 I will never get over how huggable that warden is. I'm going to die the first time I face a warden for real cause I'm gonna think of this and try to hug it.
@@FireQueenOfficial I take no responsibility for any future warden related injuries XD
SUPER EXCITED FOR THIS!!!! and an absolutely INCREDIBLE song choice to go with secret life!!
edit for after watching the animatic: THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING???? HELLO????? the entire opening scene, the winners surrounding scar, the canary feather, the wither v warden battle and all the deaths that came from it… i could go on… AMAZING JOB ONCE AGAIN
I didn’t think it could get better from Limited Life and yet here you are proving me wrong! This was absolutely gorgeous! I have quite a few favourite moments top two for sure being the feather around Jimmy and Lizzie but also the Warden and Wither battle from the back of the Secret Keeper? Are you literally kidding me?!? Goodness this was so good. ❤
I have watched this a couple times and I was so flipping impressed! There is such a visible difference between this animatic and Battle Cry it's crazy. I would make a list of all of my favorite frames, but that would be about the entire animatic! I can say that Cleo and the wolves gives similar vibes to Pearl riding Scar's horse with Tilly in Running Up That Hill and I love it. I think we all should appreciate the hand animation as well lol, I can see the work, time, and effort. The angst with Lizzie's birthday is so good too. Finally, the animation of Gem getting the boogeyman is such a good detail that you didn't have to do but did anyways, mad respect! Amazing job, hyped for the next one.
Edit: This has pushed me to make my own animatics as well
Ayyy you got this my dude! All the hype for progress on your own projects! Thank you Jester! I appreciate your kind words :D
Oh my gosh I missed this upload.
This is beautiful like all your animatics.
I love the life series for the emotional stories that are silently and beautifully weaved into a Minecraft let's play. Your animatics showcase them perfectly.
Side note: This is now the third song you have introduced me too that is going into my song playlist
1:18 "Keep your hands inside the camel?!"
2:37 I love that you put in the fence!
Context: In a previous session, Mumbo had jokingly put down two fence posts next to the Secret Keeper to stop Martyn. He never removed them. In session 6, he got stuck on the fence posts, leaving him vulnerable and was killed by the warden.
How have I missed out on this for an entire MONTH??? This is absolutely amazing!!
Loved this so much.
1. The shot at 2:40 is such a beautiful shot. I love the way it looks so much
2. This song fits perfect for this season. Describing the Secret Keepers as the literal machine, and by completing tasks you feed it
you have no idea how long i have been waiting for this. gorg artwork!! I watched a few of your streams for some of this art work and it was so nice too talk to you! 💞
Thanks for coming to hang on streams! I always love chatting with other Life Series enjoyers!
THIS IS NUTS, incredible! You did a good job! Love the choosing of "Feed the machine" as the song and zour artstyle, while being so cosy and creepy at the same time, manages to get on well with the "countryness" of the song! Once again -- good job, keep it up!
"Here's to the greater good for all 🥂🥂"
God I love this song and I am so excited for this animatic! Your life series animatics are always impressive and I know this one will be PEAK
EVEREN! That was SICK! Thanks so much for the animatic, I adore your style :D
Alright, I’m ready to cry again.
Offers you an almost empty tissue box.
Sorry I needed them too.
This animatic is amazing, and they just keep getting better every time. I've watched all of your life series animatics, and love them all, you do such amazing work!
(I may have watched this an unhealthy amount of times.)
THE FEATHER AROUND LIZZIE AND JIMMY OMMMGGGGGG
ETHO ART ETHO ART ETHO ART!!!
every single one of your videos never fails to amaze me, they're jaw droopingly beautiful
Not much to say other than that you've not once disappointed with one of these animatics, and this one is just perfection. You're so incredibly talented!
OH MY GOD IT'S SO AMAZING!!! The red-blue combination of the Wither-Warden fight, the portal opening animation, all of the End scenes AMAZING!! It just perfectly captures the atmosphere behind all those epic events!
Well that was literally one of the best animatics I’ve ever seen, your work never fails to make my draw drop.❤
I've been a fan of Poor Man's Poison for a little while now, such a talented band, couldn't think of a better artist to put an animatic to one of their songs. Amazing work as always Everen!!
(Wow I think I’m the thousandth comment :0) AHHH THIS IS SO GOOD BEYOND WORDSSSSS- I spent way too long trying to analyze this xD. Some notes and things :D:
0:13 Dang that scroll animation!!
0:21 Love to see all the winners included
0:42 YASSS BIGB!- One of the best scenes in the whole thing, it perfectly encapsulates his entire vibe that season
0:48 Wow- The look of sheer horror is crazy, also that brute looks so.. well, brutish, would not want to mess with it
1:02 Love the perspective here
1:08 Grian’s expression is perfect here, I love this scene so much
1:17 “Inside the camel?” -Lizzie. Again, amazing facial expressions here
1:39 Gem looks absolutely terrifying in this scene, whispering tales of greatness into Bdubs’s ear. I love it
1:58 The matching hair and glasses is a great touch
2:00 Cleo being terrifying as usual
2:08-2:12 Love this whole sequence there
2:23 Hah, Jimmy looks so happy. Very cool that the canary feather goes around his neck to show he is still trapped ;)
2:38 YES THE FENCE- This scene is just super cool in general, the blue and red clash very well (and gives me a laugh to remember Grian breaking the game xD)
2:41 Possible the best shot here, if I get any of the prints this will definitely be one of them
2:48 SO BEAUTIFUL, I love how you’ve drawn the Nether star, Grian’s expression is also great
There is so much I didn’t mention, the whole thing from the faces and hands to backgrounds and monsters is AMAZING! Super well done :D
I’m so excited!!!!! I just know it’s going to be absolutely incredible. This is amazing!
Once again, your animatics are fantastic. I have nothing to say about the story beats that no one else has, but I would like to highlight just how good your art is getting! There are some really good perspective shots in this and it's really clear you've been working on hands, too. This looks great!
ITS HERE!
AND its to Feed the Machine?! I thought about the life series the first time I heard it too, its soo good!
Also this animatic is amazing!
I'm filled with joy 😁
i just LOVE that you can tell lizzys confusion on the camel references scar "keep your hands and feet inside of the camel at all times" "INSIDE the camel???"
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ITS HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Super excited to see it. I tuned in to a few streams but I look forward to being surprised and impressed by your work, per the usual.
Also: Someone alert Martyn and Jimmy!
This is so awesome, great work Everen!! Scar grabbing the scroll, the soul bound connection of Grian and Joel! Jimmy breaking the canary curse!! And the words sync so well, like the world and Bdubs base being it, also the warden and wither battle is drawn so well and the after effect from it!! It’s all so good!! :DD
Really love the canary feather around Lizzie and Jimmy when she died first, breaking Jimmy's curse, that was such a cool detail!
Oh bro only at the beginning and oh my god this is amazing. Scar getting the task, then having Grian, Pearl, Scott, and Martyn show up is incredible. This is just incredible and I love this. I am watching while typing and oh my god this is just. Wow. The end portal! The bees! The designs! The heart foundation reference! Amazing. Bro I’m at a loss for words. THE CANARY FEATHER WHILE LIZZIE FELL AND IT MOVED TO JIMMY TO TELL. OH MY GOD. INCREDIBLE. Bro I love this so much.
THE SCREAM I SCREMPET IM SO EXCITED HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO WAIT TILL TOMORROW
this might be my favourite animatic of anything ever
everything about this is peak:
the first frame alone, of all winners behind scar. you can see the exact emotions he is going trough while reading his task wich makes every smile before the pain feel like a calm before the storm
that feeling, mixed with the controlled and doomed feeling this song already has captures such an uneasy mood, being further helped by bigb's gaslighting
and then, the confirmation of danger: martins BRUTAL murder -further solidifying the hopelessness of what are favourite players are going trough
only for his death not to matter, everyone else still gets to turn in their completed task and to live another day
and there's no rebelling, no choice. We see tango denied of his precious hearts because his friends ratted him out. and then, I don't know why, but the frame of grian happy, relaxed while burning his own home...
as if he has accepted that it doesn't matter, it never mattered weather he built anything at all. All that matters is his next task, and weather he completes it or not.
then the frame of Bdubs proudly and enthousiasticly showing off his world to his friends -He seems so innocent, so happy. yet we know what is about to happen and we know and still feel the situation they are all in.
even scar gets to smile, for a moment. A small part of their lives, everyone gets to smile once. Maybe more if they cooperate better
the one gift they recieve for following the system
the warden and wither as well, such beautiful chaos and man I feel like I just lost a friend every time i see mumbo behind those dam fence posts
you made a beautiful piece of art Everen, and I am forever thankful for having discovered your channel!
if you ever do decide to make the wild life animatic as well, ill be there and so will all of us
and if you don't, then I'll still stick around for whatever you have planned because you are one talented artist!
(apologies for my spelling mistakes)
I am beyond hyped right now! The thumbnail looks amazing and I can't wait to here how you synced up the story with the song
Dang it, Everen, you've made yet another amazing video. I hope you know that everyone who watches these series appreciates how special you make it feel through your animatics, and we all look forward to the next one.
OH MY GOD!!! IT IS FINALLY HERE! I’ve been waiting for this! I can’t wait for it to come out. There’s two things I’m most excited about and that is, Mumbo bc I love your style of drawing him and second is our boy Tango! I also just read the amazing story of yours Your Light in my Eyes and Your embers at my fingertips. It was really awesome story. Have a good day/night❤️
After the premiere: It was awesome! Really cool, love your art work❤
RAGHHHHSJBJKFNSKA THE TIMING OF THE SONG WITH THE DIFFERENT FRAMES AND THE COMPLEX ART STYLE ASJKAWD THIS IS SO FREAKING COOL
AHHHHHHH THIS IS AMAZING!!!! You captured everything so well!
Amazing as always! Your music selections are just the best of all HC animatic artists. ❤
Love love love the impulse styling in particular at 1:45. Your characters are immediately recognizable without making them look cartoonish. Love it.
This is going to be so hype!!!
Edit: It was hype! So awesome!!!
THIS IS AMAZING❤❤❤ SCAR AT THE BEGINNING WITH ALL THE OTHER LIFE SEIRES WINNERS IS SO GOOD❤❤❤❤
