The Story of How I Made THIS Film
• How I Started Late and...
“After his alcoholic father's death, a young man decides to sell the last memory of him - his taxi.”
This 2D Animation short was my graduation film in 2020. No 3D software was used in the making of this short film. Everything was digitally drawn, animated and painted. My thesis focused on the use of perspective grids to emulate camera movements and rotations in 2D. I figured I never did uploaded it to my own channel so here you go!
For the story, it is entirely fictional. But after some self-analysis I realized I probably came up with this story because of real events in my life, in a sort of “what if” version of how things could’ve happened.
I created this film with lots of love for the craft that we do, and I really hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for being here!
I found this animation from that video. I don’t get very emotional but this made me tear up. It’s very inspiring to know that you succeeded at your goal after being told you weren’t enough, and made this as a result. Incredible work again, and great job with the story telling with this animation and the new video.
I don't think the word failed is anywhere in your resume. That was amazing! I'm trying to get into animation and WOW what an inspiration! keep going.
Xup
I love the music!!!! did you realy compose it yourself?? Increditable! Plus the lighting and BG really make for the finishing touch! How long do short animations such as these normally take?
@@allisonwoodruff3966 Hi Allison. I really did! Thank you, so very glad you enjoyed it!
The video on the pinned comment goes deeper onto why it took so long but this short took 3+ years to make! (working on it on and off).
I am known by my friends for not being too expressive, but this made me shed some tears
This is the biggest compliment Donnyan_shiro, thank you!
same, although i held back my tears i could feel they were coming
Same here
its true, i am his friend
It get me too un my soul😢
My dad is an alkoholic he is right now in hospital. I don’t keep contact with him because his is very hurtful but I came to visit him because doctors said he might not make it now or he will drink again. I said I forgive him and I thanked him for everything good that he did. Seeing this video makes me happy that I did that thank you.
All the perspective shifts and transitions were top notch, really impressive work!
Thank you Kor, super glad you enjoyed it!!
This is gorgeous, super impressive for a college short film. The skill shown here is so professional 🥺 I’ve been looking at colleges recently for animation, but most of the affordable ones don’t seem to get their students to a high enough skill level for my tastes. If anyone has any tips on how I can get a good animation education but also be able to pay for it please share, I’m so stuck ahh
If I'm to be 100% I had to learn most of the skills showcased here by myself hehe. I went to a 3D school, so I had to learn 2D animation, drawing, and painting on my own.
What I did was focusing on what I want to achieve, have a goal in mind, or a reference that I want to imitate (it doesn't matter if you actually do it or not) the important thing is once you know where you are right now, and where you want to go, all you have to do is do small daily exercises that will level up your skills to get there.
Try tackling single topics instead of complex mixes, and I promise if you're consistent you can achieve the results that are in your head. Best of luck!!
@@ManuMercurial I am not studying animation, although it is a dream of mine but I'll stick to just being my hobby. With most careers in college, you have to learn things on your own. Everything is studying and practicing and honing the skills to near perfection. Sure they hand you skills to help you, thats why you're studying but everything is mostly by your own effort. It doesn't matter where you study. So everything you're saying is 100% true. As for the person asking trust on this one :) I'm studying medicine, and colleges usually just tell you some things and then let you fly off, and you decide if you take it or not.
Colleges are just a phase of your entire process! You have to put in a lot of work yourself and might still not end up where your peers end up, but that's simply because they came in with more experience than you. That is fine! What's more important is that you use this opportunity to grow, through your own ambition combined with professional assistance. Don't be too worried about what you see in the college's portfolio. Instead, see if you can get a chance to talk to the professors or alumni to get a better picture. Good luck!
@@MrFoxInc thank you for that encouragement, I’ll see about visiting some and seeing them for myself!
if you want to animate your own shorts i suggest you follow the path I'm planning, study comics and art first. composition, storywriting and comic techniques are all helpful to know to animate an original story. its never too late to start animating tho, so you might as just try before college. although I am not the best one to ask here as I'm still at high school, I'm planning to go somewhere at Italy, if that helps
This was such a beautifully crafted short film. It perfectly illustrates the conflicting feelings one gets when someone who has hurt them dies, especially a parental figure. It is easy to simply hate the person before this, but, when they pass and one is left with the memories, they begin to remember the way things were before. Wonderfully done!
Ah dangit now I'm crying.
That was really good! I love the transitions between each scene
Thanks JoyceW (: glad you enjoyed it!
@@ManuMercurial Hi man, i was wondering, did you use After Effects for this animation ? i know there are lots of stages to into making a short film but for the "motion" part did you use AE ?
@@Saed-kr7jk I actually have a video on how I use After Effects for my animations, its all in there! Happy you enjoyed it!
@@ManuMercurial so this video was made by AE ? i will defineitly watch that other video but i just want to make sure that THIS video was mad by AE. cheers
@@Saed-kr7jk It was animated in Clip Studio Paint, then the post production was all After Effects, yep!
Damn, that was downright stupendous! You have a mesmerizingly fluid style that maximizes the emotion from each transition. My two favorites were the transition of the dad shaking at the funeral to his tears becoming rain on the taxi windshield (a gorgeous way to show how his grief from his wife's passing affected him and his son's lives) and especially EVERYTHING to do with the swing. From the good memories of the father pushing the son forward to try to reach the light of his mom and a healthier headspace, to how he just can reach it in the arc and starts falling back into the darker memories of his father's worst moments, to how in the end he refuses to let them dominate him and runs to the hospital room to CHOOSE to make peace with it all. Utter visual poetry!
I came here from your video on working on Lackadaisy after watching the Lackadaisy pilot (which was a fun watch on its own), and you are awesome! I want to ask your advice on the matter. I have a script for an animated pilot, but no drawing or animation skills to speak of (my specialty is screenwriting). What do you suggest for how to bring that story to life?
Truly appreciate your message Sam. Reading this I'm so very glad what I intended to show with those sequences did reach you!
As for your question, going straight into an animation might be a big challenge for all the reasons you saw in the Lackadaisy video. My suggestion would be to team up with an artist to create a comic/webtoon first, and start building an audience around it!
That way you can explore a longer story, and focus on the writing part of it, before expanding it to other types of projects like an animated teaser, until it grows enough to be able to crowdfund a fully fledged pilot. That's what I plan to do myself!
Wish you the best of luck!!
Hello! Super novice fellow artist here. Planning my own webcomics myself, actually. Or trying to work my way up to it.
Figured I would leave a reply and put myself out there, in case you ever wanted someone else to talk to about how to go about this whole thing. I keep hearing a lot about community and working together, so I want to shoot my shot and see who else is willing to team up and chitchat.
@@Reveur_Lucide Thanks for reaching out! Do you have a DeviantArt or similar online portfolio?
This is such a beautiful, poignant and thought-provoking film. It speaks without the characters saying a word!!!
Thank you! Honestly, telling a story without speaking was such a difficult task, so glad you caught that
Its nice to finally get to see the entire animation instead of snippets from your other tutorials lol
I really adore the dynamic angles and compositing, its beautiful
This means a lot coming from you! Thank you!
Watched this after watching Manu's latest upload, and all I can say is, damn. This hit hard. I didn't expect it to be this good, but damn, it actually moved me to tears.
Absolutely brilliant
Thank you so very much for your kind words and for taking the time to watch both videos!! Glad you enjoyed them!
wow.. This is by far one of the best student films I've seen. Your storytelling skills made this such an emotional and captivating story and each shot transition flowed into the next sequence seamlessly. I absolutely loved how the flow of the story was never broken and kept me engaged throughout the whole film. Not to mention animating all the BGs just using a 2d software!! It must have taken a painstakingly long time to redraw every new frame in perspective again like the car xD (on a side note you should def make a tutorial on how you animated those BGs, I would die to see it as a fellow proponent of 2D BG animation c:)
Also the music and story really reminded me of a story driven game called To the Moon. Its one of my favorite games of all time that deals with two scientists traversing through a dying patient's memories and this film made me feel like this could be a sequel to that series or something like that. Amazing job man, I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos and hopefully finishing some projects of my own as well! :D
Hi Duskfall! I really appreciate you taking the time to write this, it means a lot! So glad you enjoyed the pacing and flow of the film, a lot of preproduction work went into it and your comment makes me really glad it did pay off!
Damn man UA-cam sucks this shoulda been getting recommended to everyone, deserves way more views!
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad for every view it gets Happy you enjoyed it!
this is illegaly underrated
Thank you for your good vibes, it means a lot!
I first saw this around the time when Lackadaisy first came out. I was super intrigued to see what other works you had to offer! This animation, at the time, was incredibly emotional but lacked that punch that I needed to actually cry. It still got stuck in my head though, coming back to me during super random times. It wasn’t until my Grampy passed away that I truly understood why.
I can’t relate to this 100%. Nobody in my family are alcoholics, thank god. But it still speaks to me. I unfortunately was never as close with him as I wish I was, and when he passed all I could think about when I found out was how much I missed out on. I can hardly remember his smile, his laugh, the touch of his hand, all of it. Seeing this young man go through the memories of his life, doing his best to find the good in places he just can’t, then eventually stumbling his way back into the hospital room with the little guitar in his hand… I felt that in my soul. I desperately want to go back in time and change things, help him, do anything to make him smile again. To find the good again. But I just can’t.
He was a wonderful man. I still miss him.
Thank you for working so hard to bring us such a tear-jerking masterpiece.
This was incredible. No wonder you and your team won first place.
damn. i don't often cry over animated films, but this... seriously made me shed a couple of tears. especially when you watch this animation right after that video in which you told your story as an animator and artist, and... and now everything here seems to be doubly expressive, emotional and amazing. all the people who have worked on this did a really, really big and beautiful job, did it all with great soul. this is really inspiring. i've been having a huge problem with creativity and art these days, but everything i have learned from you this day has really helped me a little bit, like a sip of the purest water in a relentless heat. it really helped me and, it must be, many other people too.
thank you very very much for your huge work from a fourteen year old artist!!
Same I cried first watch too.
@@itsmereem6748 same 🥲
Daaaamn. Ambitious storytelling for a less than 5 min animation. What stood out to me the most was how creative the transitions are between scenes as well as how dynamic the camera is which is really impressive in the context of 2D animation. Alright, maybe a third thing and then I'll shut up. The color/lighting is really in line with the narrative points of each scene. Seriously nice work.
no no, keep going Thanks so much Mustache Twiddler, I really appreciate you taking the time to write this, and thank you for watching it!!
ngl this made me cry for 30 minutes gotta love the animation though
Dude you just killed it
Im not crying you are! :') It was a good film I can see how much effort was put into the film heart and soul good job!
Thanks BalloonsDraws, happy to hear you enjoyed it!
This is just unbelievable that such a good work has less then 1k views! Great job guys, keep up going like this!
Thank you Zappy Ken, I appreciate you watching it, enjoying it and taking the time to comment. That means it accomplished its goal
This short film really touched me.
and the animation creativity is amazing! I really admire you, I will continue to learn and will become like you :) You are my motivation, thank you very much ♡
Thank you Bunnirell, you are my motivation too! Thank you for taking the time to write this!
This is absolutely beautiful😭😭😭😭 I’m crying over how wonderful this is❤
I don't know if it's the way you sold the story or the incredible craftsmanship shown in the composition that made me shed the first tear. Incredible work.
Thank you for the huge compliments Mormyrus
Beautiful. Powerful presence. Using your talent to tell a story that provokes emotion. This really hit home for me as my dad suffered from alcohol addiction. I have felt similar at times after his death to what you portrayed in your animated short film. Thank you for using your talent to normalize those feelings!
Never fails to make me cry, every single time i watch it
Wow I am just.. wow. I'm not crying, you're crying!
This is beautiful. Every frame is a work of art. I did not expect this to grip me the way that it has.
Alcoholism has affected my family, so maybe that made it hit a little harder, but I could FEEL the ups and downs the young man went through. The funeral scene was almost too much, I loved it.
I don't know enough to give any honest critiques, but those lighting transitions are astounding. You should feel proud of what you've accomplished in this film, I don't know what else to say.
I just started with art at the age of 31 (save for what I've done in high school, but I barely count that). You uploaded your painting tutorial a day prior to me starting research, so thankfully UA-cam's algorithm pointed me your way. I've referred back to that tutorial several times while working on my first pieces, but didn't realize you uploaded your short film until now.
Thank you Manu, so much, on multiple fronts.
Thank you Treed, this comment really means a lot. Thanks for checking out my content since day 1 on YT, hopefully it keeps living up to your expectations
I watched this short on mute just cuz i wasn’t ready to commit to a video, and yet I still cried. This was beautiful and a very effective story-telling. So powerful
It deserves more than it has❤
You made me cry, i don't know how but you did it, you hit the spot.
a beautiful example of visual storytelling! The angles, expressions, lighting, EVERYTHING here tells the story! I got chills near the end too! Fantastic job!
Thank you so very much Icemaster. Your comment is incredibly encouraging. I appreciate you watching the video!!
This is a powerful film. It reminded me of the loss of my own father many years ago and of standing in the hospital room as he took his last breath. Good luck and God Bless You in all you do. Your talent and great Heart is apparent in this work.
Action speaks louder than words 😢
The music in this is incredible
This has become one of my favorite, if not the favorite, short animation. The transitions from one scene, one emotional state to the next are beautiful. The color schemes, light, and shadow are so fitting of each scene. And of course, the story and how the boy processes it all were presented so well.
Made me feel very warm and fuzzy or something....
this can make anyone cry, so sad 😢 really awesome vid, keep up with the amazing work!
Truly beautiful to see, heartfelt story. I just lost my dad. Memories that all I got now. Thank you for this gift! 🙏🏾
I am sorry for your loss. Thank you for taking the time to watch it and your kind words. Truly appreciate it!
@@ManuMercurial Thank you and you are truly welcome! 🙏🏾
I'm just reading a book. Jensen Derrick: Language Older than Words. Your language spoke in 70 languages. - I was holding my father's hand when stopped breathing. I'm glad I could. Thanks for the "Memories" what you did not sell but have shared with us, with me.
Thank you for your kind words Mind EGY, wish you all the best!
a good animation like this always makes me cry. not only bc of the story but also bc of all the love that is put into every single frame by artists
saw your incredible work on Lackadaisy and came over to see the film that got you the job - I'm blown away (and also sobbing but that's beside the point) - it might seem simple but I know pulling this together was anything but. The raw emotion this invokes is powerful, the message it's delivering is powerful, and there are soo many of us - too many of us - who relate to a life or relationships like this extremely personally. I'm still crying and had to get tissues for my nose....
Amazing work 💞
Thank you so much for your kind words Ashley! This is the biggest compliment
I came from ur recent vid and i finally understand why this film won. I am a sucker for dramas actually and making me cry is one of my criteria that a story is good. I did cry, but it wasnt like that my intense crying that i really want to burst. This is the kind of cry that is continuous and my heart is so filled with melancholy. It's amazing because there are really no words at the whole film but the sudden shifts of perspective and color, the music and the animation-- it felt like i was really there, yknow that kind of vr thing feels? Every passing memory was like a series of wind slapping me on the face that kept me on crying. It was lonely and very sad feeling. I felt empty actually after watching this, i mean i know it ended in a good mark and i know it might just be a fictional character, but i wonder how is the mc was feeling after all of this.
What I tried to convey with the end is, even thought the mc might not be able to completely forgive his dad for the damage and neglect he did, he reached a 'different' kind of forgiveness.
When you understand the person that hurt you so well, that you also understand there's nothing to forgive.
I hope he achieved peace!
Thank you for your kind words!!
Absolutely and overwhelmingly beautiful.
That was so beautiful
Thank you for this saw emotional story
Beautiful animation, story.. everything!!! Amazing project!
Who's chopping onions on my keyboard!?!?! Beautiful 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Brings back memories of my own late father. He was an angry, impatient, short-tempered man who drove away everyone who ever loved him, including his second wife, with his verbal abuse. He died completely alone. I spent a lot of my childhood terrified of him. He was not a very good father at all. And I know the fact that none of his four kids were ever all that close to him hurt him and I also know that he brought that on himself. I know all this, and I still love him, and miss him so much. Thanks for helping me remember that.
OH GOD. I found this video by searching for animation tutorials since I started learning animating but damn. This is so cool, the story, the visuals....
The swing scene was a masterpiece, how the main character swang between memories, letting himself be dragged as he progressively dives deeper into painful memories, just wow
Beautiful
I can't remember the last time I teared up from a film, excellent work. I came here from your newest video and I related to that video as a 21 year old artist feeling the same things.
this is unbelievably beautiful and touching
Man I’m tearing up. I lost my mom and my dad was my anchor through it. He’s my tough giant of a hero and when he eventually passes on I know my parents will finally be together again.
If the world were in the right place, this video could get 1 billion likes ❤
Had to watch couple more times, first to soak in the story then to scream “How the HELL did he animate that part!” Over and over
HAHA Lots of love for 2D Animation, and quite a bit of patience. Thanks Derpiocy!
Awwh, my heart is melting...🥺🦋💕💖
espectacular Manu!
"Cada línea que dibujas, estás una línea más cerca de tu sueño!"
Hola Manu, creo que hace anios no sentia algo por una pieza de arte como la tuya. Como creador, compositor, a veces escultor, y peacemaker tratando de salvar al mundo, se lo que se necesita poner (energias, tiempo, paciencia, recursos y toda tu alma) para poder lograr algo asi.
Aparte de las lagrimas, solo quiero decirte GRACIAS.
Tienes un poder grande, usalo para el bien :)
Un abrazo de China
Angelo
Muchas gracias por el gran cumplido Angelo, te deseo la mejor de las suertes en tus proyectos!
Really a great work guys. Excellent
Wow this hits hard. My mom is an alcoholic, but she is still alive. My feelings about her are complicated, so much anger, unfairness and disappointment, but also worry and warm. I hope she could live as full life as it's possible (that doesn't include me, because I can't deal with her). We haven't seen for many years, but sometimes we text. I'm afraid of that moment and all emotions that might explode when she dies.
Sending you lots of love.
Almost similar to me. This hits hard for me as well. My dad was an alcoholic during my adolescence. We shared fairly well good memories, most memories has definitely been more violent than good though. He stopped drinking so heavily when I was like 10, but he still was very violent, drank occasionally. He was a very violent man still. I’m now 23 haven’t seen my dad in almost a year. Even though he chooses a different family, then the one he has, and I am still in denial for the love I have for him. He’s still my dad, and I hope one day he will get better, and eventually happier, even though most likely without me in his life, it would really hurt me if something were to happen to him. Especially since I was the only one to stick with him when everyone left him. I just wish him well.
This is amazing in all parts, story, technical achievement, and cinematography.
So very glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you for your kind words!!
@@ManuMercurial you are very humble, thanks for sharing your work.
Incredibly great animation!
Movements and rotations are excellent. I like it very much🤩
Came for the techniques and stayed for the story. Shed a couple of tears for it. Great animation :)
Ruzzi, thank you so very much! That's the biggest compliment!
I can't control my emotions after this masterpiece 🤗 I am at peace now thanks
I lost my father like this in 2015, and this short-animated film reminded me of my lost father again. May all fathers be well. My only request to those who have fathers, respect and take care of your father while you have time. Because once he's gone, you won't even get that chance. Not even once!! 💔🥀
Man, it so resonates with me, I literally didn’t ever felt like this, literally crying and desperate, and other mix of feeling stuff, this story is so real. Thank you the author who created this
It's frankly surprising how this short immediately made me cry
The opening alone was so strong that my eyes start to tear up. I was hoping that somewhere within the short it'll stop but no, it just keep going refusing me the time to not cry
Absolutely stunning beautiful captured every moment
Omg I cried twice to this this is so beautiful and sad. I interpret this as somebody who has been hurt and had bad memories but also good memories with their father and decided to make peace with his father. I watched the video on how you "failed at art" and its so amazing how you where able to make this despite failing out of hard work and passion. This might be one of my fav short animations.
And the animation is beautiful I really love the transitions its crazy how this was made in 2d!
When the glasses were breaking, that was my favorite brilliant scenes.
.....
The saddest thing is no one is to blame because everyone is experiencing everything for the first time. His parents experiencing parenthood for the first time. And him experiencing grief for the first time and so forth. We don't learn this from school so we must go through it to the best way we can.
I really like how the initial main character's disgust and disappointment towards father gradually were changing through titular memories. To not spoil more, I will add that visualisation of his journey through memories is really captivating (especially the scene with breaking glass wall). Good work!❤
I watched this a few months after it came out by myself with the family ipad (bcz at the time i didnt have my own gadget) and i literally cried so much after watching it because of how touching it was, and i still came back to watch it over and over again and yet it srill manages to make me burst out in tears
Thanks for creating such beautiful animation! You are amazing!
So, the message is, his dad was a good father, but then after his mother died, his dad became a drunk, and likely abused, and neglected him, but that he should forgive his dad because he had a few human moments? It's my personal view that abusive parents need to work HARD to redeem their actions. it's not something that they're entitled to just because they're parents.. Oh, otherwise, really great animation, keep up the good work!
It makes me happy that's the message you got out of the film, but it is not that he 'was' forgiven.
In the end the main character probably didn't forgive him, but at least could understand him. I think its important to sometimes step on the shoes of people who have hurt us and understand why they did, even if we can't forgive. Thank you for your comment!
NO, NO ESTOY LLORANDO 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I was unable to shed tears for my great-grandpa because I was so numb. Thank you so much for helping me cry for him. This video hit me and allowed me to feel again.
Thank you for your kind words!
@@ManuMercurial Thank you for this video and the ability to feel.
Absolutely mesmerizing. The shots done with the idea of different types of light was so well done. Loved it.
this is so wholesome, it def deserves more views :(
You are an absolute legend to look forward to seeing everyday. Every passion you put in your work is shown in every bit of animation you make. I used to be an artist but seeing this made me passionate to go back and do it once more. Thank you for creating art Manu Mercurial.
The symbolism in this masterpiece is CRAZY.
Watched, watched.... still watching.❤
Wow this is amazing, you create so much depth in the animation at times it looks almost 3D, most notably that car rotating scene. The compositing as well is incredible, perfectly consistent through the entire short. I’m sure a lot of people can resonate with a story like this too, you portrayed it very well. Great work all around (:
Thank you very much! So glad you enjoyed it. Really appreciate all the compliments!
This is incredible. I should have known this would make me cry. Amazing work and beautifully composed all around
Well damn, I was not expecting to be hit in the feels this hard.... ;-;
This is beyond amazing🥺👏
Thank you for your kind words Annie, so happy you got to enjoy it!
Your story really Inspire me . I also want to be a animator ,so please keep it up . I wish you happiness from my very heart in your journey ❤❤❤
Keep doing your loving thing and keep us inspire
Que nivel de animación e historia. Un gusto conocerlo ahora el fin de semana donde Daniel 🙌🙌🙌, había visto el video anteriormente pero no sabía que era suyo.
This made me cry man. amazing story
This was some professional level stuff. I thought it was just going to be another lovely animation by people just sharing their skills but this..... This should be nominated for awards, i'm glad you won some! This is nearly prefect and surpasses a lot of feature length films in its story, cinematography, and just beautiful design.
I loved this film and i thank you for sharing your work with all of us!
Simple story, sad music, best lighting, good animation, epic
What a wonderful piece of art ❤
تفاصيل رسم خلتني انسجم انت موهوب استمر🔥
It was so incredibly moving and with not one word of speech. You made that and I'm thankful.
And I'm thankful for you watching it, I really appreciate it!
WATCHED IT WITH MY FRIENDS WE ARE LITERALLY SOBBING............... I LOVE THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
goddammit I cried, this hit the spot for me. Manu, you are a wonderful person and it shows through your art and your storytelling. You're a huge inspiration to me. Thank you for doing what you love, for making this channel and for giving us hope that we can achieve our dreams too someday
thank YOU for taking the time to write this, I truly appreciate it!! So glad you're enjoying the content!
@@ManuMercurial ( ◜‿◝ )♡
Alright, you got me. Great storytelling, and fantastic animation. I definitely shed some tears.
Wow! This is stupendous. The transitions are top notch. I'm less than halfway through and my eyes are welling up. ❤ Beautiful storytelling.
Nice creativity splattered all around this animation. Great job!
I can’t help it but seeing Omni Man in his dad 😁
