The reflections in ren's glasses, that waving banner animation, Joel's dogs, the hands, the way you fit all the lyrics in, scar's (buff) silhouette, the song, its all amazing!!
DUDE. I GOT ACTUAL CHILLS TWICE. First, when Joel showed up with his fierce wolves. Second, when Ren and Martyn died together without holding hands. AND THE MUSIC. Don't even get me started on that. When I watch this, I felt like I was watching an epic ballad of Dogwarts--its rise, triumph, and downfall. So magnificient.
OH HELLOS AND 3RD LIFE?? I'M LOSING MY MARBLES THERE ARE SO MANY EMOTIONS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW!!! Aaaaaaa this is just so gorgeous from even just the intro animation I had chills!!!!
FREAKING POETIC CINEMA!!!!! THE COLORS, THE EXPRESSIONS, THE LITTLE DETAILS OF THE CHARACTERS, OH THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! You are a fantastic artist dude!!!
Here are the moments that catch my eye: 0:00 ,The intro is snappy and the way each frame represents the 3rd Lifers are cool! 0:20 ,Dogwarts' Bombing! 0:47 ,Real solid right there! 0:54 to 1:00 ,The moment of fellowship! 1:18 ,That's really good! 1:24 to 1:32 , The Red King & Right Hand vs The Wolf King & Widow Knight 1:33 ,This is burnt into my brain, it's so good! 1:35 ,Ah, these absolute desert hippies. Scar and Grian are great villains. 1:46 ,Just beautiful. 1:47 to 2:00 ,This really sets the mood on what's to come. 2:10 to 2:17 ,The Red Army's last stand. 2:24 ,Skizz The Driven 2:28 ,Etho The Trusted. By the way I how you did his hair! 2:30 ,BigB The Steady. 2:36 ,That's absolutely amazing, The Blood, The Text. 2:38 ,Etho's last words."I'm in bad shape." 2:41 ,Ren The Worthy 2:44 ,And Martyn The Noble 2:48 ,Dogwarts is History. Thank you so much for this beauty!
The colours?! The transitions?! And choice of characters for the scenes?! Magnificent, perfect, wonderful. Yet the thing that makes me lose it all, in the most positive of ways, is how *soft* Ren looks whenever he looks at Martyn and his army. It makes me wanna keymash so hard from emotions. I love it so much, words are not enough to describe it.
Absolutely BANGER video Gen it’s so well done I love it so fucking much. The hands all look so GOOD and the way you draw Ren and Martyn and also everyone actually. So good. Iconic. Beautiful.
Finally! Some love for Dogwarts! There are very few animations from their perspective. I always felt Ren and Martyn had a better relationship then Grian and Scar. This showcases their relationship so well! Great job!!
As a big-time 3rd Life fan, this is dope! Your choice in song is exquisite! And it is certainly insinuates 3rd Life as a folktale like story. There's not a lot of things in the series that suggest to me it is anything high fantastical and the setting and characters really steal my focus. The Dogwarts storyline is definitely my all-time favorite and to see how their trials unravels in this animatic is a delight to be sure. And the texts brings such a coherency through the entire animatic, but I do wish you were a bit bolder with them.
yeah, I can see now that its all finished that there are a few places where I really did need to change the text color (Joel and his dogs and Martyn's death are the ones that stand out to me); I think if I'd been able to include every word appearing as it's said the way I'd originally intended, the movement from that would have mitigated some of the words "disappearing" into the art. Thank you for the kind comment :)
First time i watched this? straight goose bumps, like aggresively shivered from it, second time? I honestly cried, the atmosphere you made is incredible, super emotinoal and honestly just epic
Minecraft roleplay owns my soul. Genesis Frog, 3rd life Smp, The oh hellos (I freakin love this band) the algorithm knows exactly what I want XD First off I love your style so hecking much, the way you draw is just so cool I love ✨second Ive really been getting into 3rd Life and Hermitcraft so seeing content for 3rd life makes me so excited!!! The story telling you did with each scene is amazing!! Beautiful!!!!
BRUH THERE ARE SO FEW THIRD LIFE ANIMATICS AND I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR BOTH THE OH HELLOS ANIMATIC AND THE THIRD LIFE CONTENT!!!! THIS WAS REALLY GOOD!!!!
honored to be able to deliver! (im a huge fan of the oh hellos, they're one of those artists that somehow worms their way onto every playlist I ever make)
You have singlehandedly lifted Rendog to be like, my *favourite* hermit. And made 3rd life my favourite -Life smp. And made me a valant supporter of the Kingdom of Dogwarts. Like, this shit is going to make me cry from nostalgia in five years time, I can feel it already.. oh and also the animation of the banner fluttering is PERFECT This is the most viewed animation of the Dogwarts kingdom and yet it is still so underrated.. you draw like a storyboard animation that I'd make in my brain while listening to music and it's so playful yet poetic. And finally your Rendog is adorable. Definitely earned my subscribe
i mean this is the most complementary way possible but sometimes you watch a video and can instantly tell that somebody was obsessed with Homestuck during the formative years of their art.
This. Is. Epic. And sad. And... and... I don't know what to say right now, too many emotions. There are some REALLY epic drawings in there and I love the song and I love how you give a little time to actually admire the drawings before the next comes in! Ren's beheading / Martyn's test was one of the most emotional scenes for me in 3rd life, followed directly by their death together. Thank you for featuring this and the amazing friendship and loyalty that the red army was.
I'm a bit late to the party with this animatic, but oh my god this is amazing. Each lyric fits the character or scene perfectly, the colours being simplistic but still powerful, how Martyn's outfit changes from the t-shirt to a jacket when he dies for the first time, I love this!
I CLICKED ON THIS SO DAMN FAST OMG THIS IS AMAZING!!!! I love the colors you picked and how expressive everyone is in both their faces and body language!! The whole thing fits with the song perfectly I love it!! Also loving your designs for everyone, especially Ren and Cleo!!
Ah, so you noticed. >:3c Every member of Third Life (season 1) is represented in the opening! The focus is on their hands doing something that represents either their relationship to Dogwarts or something important to their series/their story; for example, Cleo has her hand up in a shushing position because she threatened Ren to keep quiet about the Pizza thievery, Grian's hands are by the edge of the pit where he is implied to be looking down at the TNT minecart due to explode in a few seconds of video to kickstart the lyrics, Joel has a flint and steel and is lashing out, Jimmy is burning the Dogwarts banner, etc etc. Was so much fun letting myself just do lineart for the hands and try to find interesting ways to make them all look good!
@@genesisfrog right??? also also also it like. to me it says that no matter who these people were, no matter what they looked like or who they cared about, the first thing people remember and the thing that affects the others most is their actions. sure, you can remember their faces and names and feelings, but to you itll never be as real as what they did to your allies and friends, yknow? sure, grian was just a prankster, but he killed three people in one explosion. sure, cleo just wanted to protect her friends, but she went after pizza and lost her third life trying to kill i think it was ren?
The thing I always love about your animatics is that it gets better the more you watch them. The rewatchability is ridiculously high. I get a little overwhelmed (in the best way possible) the first time I watch your new animatics (also applies to remember the name, sugar song etc), so the animatic slowly sinks in rewatch after rewatch. AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH??? Like the message, the emotions, the sentiment, it slowly seeps in. It still feels fresh and emotional after many many rewatches. That’s why I keep coming back This animatic is legit so good, when Joel’s wolves come up I get shivers every time because the music matches SO WELL. Also the way the music paused and swelled in time with Martyn chopping Ren’s head…. legendary. This piece of music is already amazing on its own but coupled with your art, it’s just a feast for the eyes and the ears. I love how when the music winds down you see RK and co preparing for war, but instead of like, raging fire and fury and blood, it’s quiet. Almost peaceful. Because Dogwarts is about family and protecting loved ones. I am so emo over this. Excellent job
Hey why are you so awesome? Love the pacing and symbolism. Love the color moving with the story. Some lovely framework. I watched Grian's episodes, so I only saw the red army from his perspective, but this tells me so beautifully what happens. Love this. Keep at it boss.
Watch Rendog. If Grian's tale was that of a loyal friend forced to kill the one man he least wanted to, Ren's is that of an honorable king who died in a blaze of glory.
i was into 3rd life a little while ago and watched this animatic and now i'm into one piece again and watched your other one everything just comes back to you-
gen genesisfrog this is so gorgeous and so well-done and i am so sad and so in love 🥺💕 your art is beautiful and the sense of movement and action in all these shots rly carried through, there’s so much Emotion and i will be thinking abt this all day
one of my favorite animatics of all time, and my favorite out of all the third life ones. the colors, textures, lighting, composition, its all just beautiful. you did an amazing job of telling the story of dogwarts, and despite being a personal fan for monolopy mountain in 3rd life, this animatic never ceases to fascinate me with their story. amazing job :)
Absolutely phenomenal!! Great choice of song and use of lyrics, and your art style evokes such raw emotions and reactions to each scene! You know how to make people FEEL, how to instill awe and make something powerful, just with layout and color and lyrics!! This was stunning!!
I hope you know this is constantly on loop in my head. :DDDD The colour scheme is just so perfect and the composition of every frame is seriously impressive!!!!
This animatic is... A lot. And when I say that I mean that it really *forces* so many emotions to be felt, as the story telling and the art are both absolutely incredible and watching it gives me chills and goosbumps at least three times per watch. I've seen hundreds, maybe even thousands of animatics before and there's always those select few that will stick with me. This is truly one of them! From the song choice to your magnificent art style to the fact that it's dogwarts centric - I was blown away the first time I saw it about a year ago and every other time I rewatch I am equally, if not moreso, blown away again. I know this is nearly two years old by now but it still lives up as being absolutely amazing.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS IS SO COOL like from the flashing images at the start??? the way they change to the beat?????? got me hooked already. i havent even finished watching 3rd life yet (im starting w last life im still only at ep 2) but this is so good!!!!! (also ive never realized how cool the lyrics are to where is your rider im terrible with recognizing lyrics by listening alone but goddamn it fits)
I come back here sometimes to rewatch this video. I love the oh hellos and this song fits the dogwarts arc beautifully. There’s new details that I catch each time (scott lying dead in the flowers are you KIDDING ME) and I still get chills every time!! what a beautiful work of art
This is honestly one of the two most amazing and beautiful animatics I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen hundreds. (The other is about one of my favorite books.) Your art is so great, and the way it fits with the song is wonderful. Speaking of, thank you so much for this because it introduced me to my favorite band of all time. Seriously, I listen to The Oh Hellos every day, and I love their music, all thanks to you, so thank you so much.
oh my god. I keep rewatching this. I love the lineless art so much, and just… with every rewatch it just crushes me a little more how sad this story is
i actually cried to an animation for the first time, and its about minecraft. but seriously the song paired up with your art and just-aaaa and the end broke me, and just this is amazing ❤️
HEY THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE ANIMATIC deadass had me and my partner in silence as we watched it together because it was just breathtaking and amazing. fabulous job
Gen Genesisfrog. This is still my favourite animatic ever, i have watched it so many times i cannot believe I've not commented before! This stunning work of art is the reason i know the lyrics by heart and introduced me to the Oh Hellos. You are such a fantastic artist and animator, and this gets better with every rewatch, especially with your extra trivia and spotting all the details that I missed at first. Also! The hands
This- you actually made me sympathise with Ren and Dogwarts and I only watched the desert duo pov- amazing work, dear artist, also makes me love the song so goshdang much. Astounding. Everything about this. I cried lol-
okay like. I adore this, it's beautiful, you've really captured ren and martyn's story here and I love it and I need you to understand how much I already felt this before I scrolled down to comment, saw your username, and immediately had war flashbacks of regina spektor homestuck animatics bc oh boy you're a homestuck expat this explains so much about the vibe and art style here and why it felt eerily familiar lol
if you enjoyed this video there's now a FULL VERSION with Pale White Horse ua-cam.com/video/VZjRszkgrL8/v-deo.html
The reflections in ren's glasses, that waving banner animation, Joel's dogs, the hands, the way you fit all the lyrics in, scar's (buff) silhouette, the song, its all amazing!!
Thank you, Chaos!!
A friend convinced me to watch 3rd life and I just finished watching Rendog's pov yesterday, and holy crap this gave me chills!
just in time for my video and for scott to post a sneak peek at 3rd life season 2 on twitter!!
DUDE. I GOT ACTUAL CHILLS TWICE. First, when Joel showed up with his fierce wolves. Second, when Ren and Martyn died together without holding hands. AND THE MUSIC. Don't even get me started on that. When I watch this, I felt like I was watching an epic ballad of Dogwarts--its rise, triumph, and downfall. So magnificient.

thank you!
Why did i read that with rens voice in mind?
FREAKING POETIC CINEMA!!!!! THE COLORS, THE EXPRESSIONS, THE LITTLE DETAILS OF THE CHARACTERS, OH THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! You are a fantastic artist dude!!!
Thank you!
I read this in Rens voice lol it sounds like him 😅
Here are the moments that catch my eye:
0:00 ,The intro is snappy and the way each frame represents the 3rd Lifers are cool!
0:20 ,Dogwarts' Bombing!
0:47 ,Real solid right there!
0:54 to 1:00 ,The moment of fellowship!
1:18 ,That's really good!
1:24 to 1:32 , The Red King & Right Hand vs The Wolf King & Widow Knight
1:33 ,This is burnt into my brain, it's so good!
1:35 ,Ah, these absolute desert hippies. Scar and Grian are great villains.
1:46 ,Just beautiful.
1:47 to 2:00 ,This really sets the mood on what's to come.
2:10 to 2:17 ,The Red Army's last stand.
2:24 ,Skizz The Driven
2:28 ,Etho The Trusted. By the way I how you did his hair!
2:30 ,BigB The Steady.
2:36 ,That's absolutely amazing, The Blood, The Text.
2:38 ,Etho's last words."I'm in bad shape."
2:41 ,Ren The Worthy
2:44 ,And Martyn The Noble
2:48 ,Dogwarts is History.
Thank you so much for this beauty!
Oh...
*O h...*
Oh that visual at the end with Martyn's hand reaching for Ren's but he never made it there...
I'm going to cry /pos
yeah 🥰
the part where (im guessing) its cleo's eyes and it references how a hoard of zombies attack dogwarts after she is murdered (final killed) is amazing
The colours?! The transitions?! And choice of characters for the scenes?! Magnificent, perfect, wonderful.
Yet the thing that makes me lose it all, in the most positive of ways, is how *soft* Ren looks whenever he looks at Martyn and his army. It makes me wanna keymash so hard from emotions. I love it so much, words are not enough to describe it.
ren loves the red army so much bro
Absolutely BANGER video Gen it’s so well done I love it so fucking much. The hands all look so GOOD and the way you draw Ren and Martyn and also everyone actually. So good. Iconic. Beautiful.

@@genesisfrog Your work is amazing.
This animatic made me feel feelings I should not be experiencing about a minecraft hardcore series
I have tears. Tears, on my face
CRYING IN THE CLUB. How DARE you make Dogwarts even more poetic!
First time i watched this? straight goose bumps, like aggresively shivered from it, second time? I honestly cried, the atmosphere you made is incredible, super emotinoal and honestly just epic

wow i fogot how good the first season was before i watched that. martyn cut off ren's head and i was like "*gasp* I forgot that happened"
I love all the hands, and the colours look fantastic. This is a really well put together animatic
this feels like reading a picture book and I love the scott design

yeah!!!!!! 3rd life is all about actions, whether they were passive or active, and the choices that the players made - both good and bad
This genuinely made me cry, oh my goodness why is this fandom so hecking talented and why have i only found this now :O
This is so amazing I’m obsessed!!!!

i just rewatched my fav youtubers pov of this with my siblings! me and my sis love the oh hellos, what great timing! lovely art!
This is amazing! You’ve combined my favorite musicians and probably my favorite UA-cam series, and made a masterpiece out of it!
HELLOO?? THE FUCKING. just the shots of their dead bodies im loosing my mind on that also OKAY THANKS FOR RIPPIN MY HEAR OUT WITH THAT LAST FRAME
Hey why are you so awesome? Love the pacing and symbolism. Love the color moving with the story. Some lovely framework. I watched Grian's episodes, so I only saw the red army from his perspective, but this tells me so beautifully what happens. Love this. Keep at it boss.

Watch Rendog. If Grian's tale was that of a loyal friend forced to kill the one man he least wanted to, Ren's is that of an honorable king who died in a blaze of glory.
Oh god. Those hands being tragically close gave me the shivers.
Bravo
Absolutely incredible!!!!! I could watch this over and over again!!
I love all of this but the coloring might just be my favourite. All greyscale except for green, yellow, and red is such a cool choice
Oh this is LOVELY, wonderful job. Beautiful art, great song choice. Absolutely love it.
This is amazing!!

Thank you for the sweet comment !!
this is amazing I love it so much
I love how cleo's eye is a mix of red and yellow because she died in her yellow life skin before she could change it.
i've just finished ren's 3rd life and cried really, really hard watching this. thank you!
I don't even have words to describe how many chills I got from this. Such a wonderful, beautiful and well made animatic!
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS IS SO COOL like from the flashing images at the start??? the way they change to the beat?????? got me hooked already. i havent even finished watching 3rd life yet (im starting w last life im still only at ep 2) but this is so good!!!!!

THIS IS THE MOST GORGEOUS THING OMG,, criminally underrated
I come back here sometimes to rewatch this video. I love the oh hellos and this song fits the dogwarts arc beautifully. There’s new details that I catch each time (scott lying dead in the flowers are you KIDDING ME) and I still get chills every time!! what a beautiful work of art
DUDE??? THIS IS SO COOL
Amazing.
BROOOOO THREE MINUTES OF GOOSEBUMPS AND CHILLS EVERYWHERE WHAT THATS A m a s t e r p i e c e
Oh my goodness this needs to be shown in theatres
This is honestly one of the two most amazing and beautiful animatics I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen hundreds. (The other is about one of my favorite books.) Your art is so great, and the way it fits with the song is wonderful. Speaking of, thank you so much for this because it introduced me to my favorite band of all time.

What a compliment! Thank you so much!
THIS WAS SO AMAZING YET SO SAD
3RDLIFE WAS SO TRAGIC AND IT HURTS ME T0T
oh my god. I keep rewatching this. I love the lineless art so much, and just… with every rewatch it just crushes me a little more how sad this story is
the graphic at 0:59 is so pretty omg I love the way you drew out that scenee
Yo this is so awesome!
this is so cool :0
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
i actually cried to an animation for the first time, and its about minecraft. but seriously the song paired up with your art and just-aaaa
and the end broke me,
and just
this is amazing ❤️
HEY THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE ANIMATIC deadass had me and my partner in silence as we watched it together because it was just breathtaking and amazing. fabulous job
thank you :)
Definitely one of my favorites. This is what convinced me to start watching minecraft animatics haha this just goes SO HARD
ouououo tysm 🥺🥺🥺🥺
This is so good. There's a lot of emotion, and the story you tell is amazing. Keep up the great work!
How have I never seen this!?! This is so damn pretty and amazing holy hell!
though we don't see people actually talking or anything the way you capture everyones character is perfect
Gen Genesisfrog. This is still my favourite animatic ever, i have watched it so many times i cannot believe I've not commented before! This stunning work of art is the reason i know the lyrics by heart and introduced me to the Oh Hellos. You are such a fantastic artist and animator, and this gets better with every rewatch, especially with your extra trivia and spotting all the details that I missed at first. Also! The hands
🥺💕 thank you so much, I'm honored to make art that people keep returning to
nah cause the way at 00:48 it cut off ren's ponytail too was good i didnt notice that till way later lmao
This is incredible! Your animation is amazing, and the song choice? Perfect!
This- you actually made me sympathise with Ren and Dogwarts and I only watched the desert duo pov- amazing work, dear artist, also makes me love the song so goshdang much. Astounding. Everything about this. I cried lol-
If you ever get the opportunity, Ren and Martyn have a deeply compelling POV of Third Life - I definitely recommend a watch if you're interested!
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG
Incredible!!
I love the limited color pallets for your videos! It’s a very creative touch and it oddly makes the scenes a lot better!!
Thank you! :D For me it's a fun challenge and it helps streamline the process of drawing, so I'm glad it's well received!
not only is this animatic phenomenal and one of the best ive seen but also the oh hellos?? i love their music 😭😭
Wow!?! The banner especially? So cool
this is really good and i really like the song choice you've used here + what you decided to draw for each frame! great stuff
okay like. I adore this, it's beautiful, you've really captured ren and martyn's story here and I love it and I need you to understand how much I already felt this before I scrolled down to comment, saw your username, and immediately had war flashbacks of regina spektor homestuck animatics bc oh boy you're a homestuck expat this explains so much about the vibe and art style here and why it felt eerily familiar lol
rewatched this and i'm going a ltitle bit insane over them again. aghghghwgh this is still SO good
