The Selkie Animatic
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 тра 2020
- This is a personal project I have been working on for awhile. I was inspired by Heather Dale's lovely song "The Maiden and The Selkie" I don't own the song. I just created the animatic for it. I look forward to making new projects! Hope you like it!

finally... a happy ending to a selkie relationship
right!? the original tale is so sad. I love this song's version.
Technically, the existence of the seal coat in the first place means that there was a happy relationship between a female selkie and a male human as well. So two happy endings.
@@LiamDerWandrer Or that the female Selkie never found her coat. Nothing said that the coat belonged to the mother of the grand mother.
@@efaristi9737I prefer to think it does, then the whole story comes full circle and feels complete and good.
@@wintersking4290 You are entirely in your right. I just don't believe everything can be a happy ending. Especially considering human nature.
Oh my goodness!! I'm the original songwriter for "Maiden & the Selkie", and it's absolutely incredible to see how much beauty and creativity my words have sparked! Thank you for your talents ❤
Hey, just wanna say, you outdid yourself with this one! This song is absolutely fantastic.
@@helljumper5601 Thank you!!
@@EmilyAmeliaHK yeah of course! When I see something good, I complement the creator. Simple as that. And this, my friend, is VERY good! Please keep up the amazing work!
Congratulations you done fantastic on such a beautiful song 🥰
OMG HOW DID MISS THIS COMMENT ;_; THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE THE SONG!!!!
I don’t know why but this feels like it could be the next Disney princess or romance story
Thanks for the wonderful compliment! ^_^
Kinda like reverse Ariel lol. I would definitely watch that, and it would really match the vibe of those new era Disney movies.
This is AMAZING!
Love especially the parts with the grandmother, and where her and her grandaughter separate hands - one last goodbye before she leaves for the sea.
This is way too underated
Thank you haha
I always wondered if anyone would ever do an animatic for this song and this completely captured the song and it’s beauty! Amazing job!
YAY! Thank you for watching!
😭 This is better love story than the Disney princesses. She have her love by finding precious treasure that allow her to join in the ocean with true love. Its why I love this song and tale. She was strong woman and found way to be with someone she loved.
Thanks for watching!
@@ArtofPuerto I rewatched more than once! XD You're very welcome!
@@queenninjabunny aaaaaah that makes me so happy to see that!!! ^_^ Glad you enjoy it!
This was beautiful. Also I love how stunned and confused the selkie looks at 2:20 when the grandmother is wagging her finger at him.
Thank you so much for liking that detail haha. And also for watching and commenting my work! ^_^ I appreciate it.
1:15 awwww beautiful moment
Yay! Thank you!
This is rather beautiful. The animatic is pleasing and the chosen song is captivating. Here, have a fish
🐟
I accept the fish happily.
Yessss, a happy ending!! The emotions, the movements, just the cinematography itself, everything is so cool!
If you ever decide to apply for a storyboarding or character designing profession, make sure to put this on your portfolio, this is a work of art. ☆_☆
Thank you!!!!! ^_^ That means a lot
I kept waiting for the tragic turn, man was I so ridiculously happy to see a happy ending!!! HUZZAH! Beautifully drawn and timed your animatic! Loved it so much! The designs are great and the story clearly following the song so well.
YAY Thank you!!!
By reading fairy tales about tragic romances, we come to expect that all relationships between fairies and humans will end badly. So it's actually when it happily end that we see as twist XD
Are you going to do any other Celtic song because you did this one Justice
I have other projects in the works! ^_^
This song is already amazing but this animatic brings it to life! I love how the sound design brings you into the story- the crackling of the torch, the squaking of the birds- and the characters are so detailed and expressive! They feel like theyve had lives before this tale- and have plenty of happily ever afters after!
He kissed her she cried awwwww Tonks wept the same tears
OMG YES!!
This has been one of my favourite song ever, I was suprised that no one used this song for an animatic.
You're a blessing and your interpretation of this song is magical and I love it. I'm also glad that I was now introduced to your channel, I can't wait for more of your art!
Thank you for your kind words!! I also have an instagram where I post my art @artofpuerto. ^_^

@@stardustanimations4385 Thanks!!!
🥺💖💖
Thank you!!
Beautiful, well done! Makes me wonder now though, was the grandmother's mother a selkie? Is that why she had a seal coat? Hmm, but then how could she have lived on land since a selkie "to live till dawning has ne'er been seen before"?
I figured they have ancestor Selkie. Maybe it was male selkie that chose to stay on land for that one night. Thus his selkie skin was left behind when he perished. However, his human lover had a child from that night. Thus the female heroine comes from a line of mix of human and selkie. The original selkie skin was buried underneath tree and was told as story to the next generation.
Also thanks for watching! ^_^
Tonks
I will tell the story to my kids 🧖🏼♀️😘💏
