I like how like the fandom just kinda collectively forgot that Rich just committed arson half way through the soundtrack, like this song is a banger and everyone just went "Yeah makes sense" but nobody ever goes "wait, he actually just,,, did that???"
It's actually pretty horrifying when you think about it. Rich was so desperate to get the squip out of his head that he literally tried to burn himself alive.. I felt so bad for him, glad he was okay in the end.
@@gardenagnostic wish there was a book we could read to find that out and get deeper information about the plot and the characters. Sadly the actual BMC book is absolute horse shit 💔
Some of my many favorite points were when a picture of Chloe’s face was taped to Jenna’s, the transition when Jenna was telling Chloe about everything and it zoomed out to show her staring at the flaming house, and the fire/sparks traveling between everyone’s phones!! :D
I love all the gossip hounds being so gleeful about the situation, then the contrast when it shows Rich clearly having the shittiest day of his life and looking really... ominous
i always thought the title "smartphone hour" was like a subtle reference to bye bye birdie since one of the first numbers is "telephone hour" and it has a similar mood of spreading the word through calling/texting/social media
I really love how this song shows how news go in the school when something happens. Pretending that they know everything that happen and they are friends with people that suffer. Some people say this song is unnecessary but I love it and I’m glad that you did this so beautiful, your style is amazing
A Be More Chill animatic? IN 2022? It's more likely than you think. Jokes aside, this is really cool and I love your style! Especially how you drew Rich 💞
2:13 was so good also Rich is so adorable and chaotic (even tho he’s having a mental breakdown) And 2:55 is such a sick frame. And I LOVE how Jenna, Chloe and Brooke are literally just the powerpuff girls, ICONIC!!! And they’re just drawn so well, your Chloe can literally step on me. Another thing, I love love love that Rich’s username is ‘Richesgetbitchez’ with a Z and Jake’s is ‘YaboyJake’ they just make so much sense! AND, Rich with squipped eyes at the end is so fucking smart
Okay but this probably my favorite BMC animatic??? Like??? The storytelling? Amazing. The animation? Beautiful. The designsand characterization? Fucking on point! It's just to freaking amazing omfg
holy shit i literally got jumpscared when i saw this in my sub box, im such a huge huge fan of all your work and the effort and subtlety that goes into all of your stuff just blows me away every time UGHH you are crazy talented !! it feels like such a blessing to be able to still see fresh quality BMC content in 2022 and i can't wait to see whatever project you end up moving onto next 🥺
Omg I thought this fandom was dead.. so happy to see people are still into it haha.. this was like, my favorite back in middle school. Good times. Read the book a couple years ago and it was also like really good.. I like it better in some ways. There's this goth girl named Stephanie I think.. and this part where Jeremy steals beanie babies to sell on eBay.. love that
@@quacker8538 No. In the book, there's these 3 hot girls in the school. Different from the ones in the musical. At the party, Jeremy tries to have sex with this girl in a laundry room at the party but fails. He ends up hiding in the bathroom with one of the hot girls. She's goth and I'm pretty sure her name was Stephanie. He's really scared and just like... hangs on to her leg. It was kind of sweet.
3:36 I just LOVE how the comments of Rich's post is just a bunch of "omgg get well soon!!" and then theres Jake. And the frame where they change their profiles of Rich flexing his biceps had me CACKLING on the "✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨💔💔💔💔💔💔fly high✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨" and the extreme Rich close up pfps. Love your work! Keep at it! You just gained a sub:DD
THIS IS AMAZING!!! THE MOVEMENT AND STAGING AND CHARACTER DESIGNS AND LITTLE JOKES AND!!! Its exactly what i hoped for and more when i clicked! You killed it!
all of the characters are drawn so cutely my gosh i want to squish them!! especially the girls during the autocorrect part sooo cute!! i really liked all the movement in this animatic from the phone calls actually having them touching and reliving the party to the cute cheer stuff it was just so fun and lively!!! really captured the energy of the song ^_^
Oh my god I'm so impressed by the sending animation sequence with everyone's different ways of sending/wording, like the lightning for excited shit talkers, the flowers for the sympathetic ones, etc... Definitely my favorite part of my god this is SO well done 😭💙💙💙
every. fucking. FRAME. of this animatic is a masterpiece. all of the parts and transitions are so well-connected and thought out. absolutely flawless. not to mention the song that you chose to animate. you are an absolute god
This is my favorite song from this musical and you animated it perfectly! There’s so much detail in every second and you always keep everything moving. The transitions are _so_ smooth and this was overall such an original animatic! I love it!
omg! More of your work! There were so many amazing parts! The Chloe taping her face over Jenna was hilarious, and the texting/instrumental bit was also amazing! that being said, the last part was deffo my fav part! Seeing all the chaos and the girls just dancing in front of it was INCREDIBLE 😂😂 Love your work as always (sorry if this comes across as awkward, its like my first comment 😅)
absolutely STUNNING!!! the animation in this is gorgeous and smooth and conveys the song perfectly >:) BMC is a masterpiece and you have certainly done it justice!
fcats about this song: A) rich set it as a s^cide attempt B) michael was still in the bathroom (the knocking in his song was pepole trynna warn him) C) jake broke his legs trynna save rich from the fire D) WHNE CAN I GET SOME RED MOUTNI DEW!? ITS LIKE NORMAL MOUTNIN DEW JUST RED!
OH MY GOD this is absolutely brilliant!!! this song just has so much energy, i always dreamed of an animatic that encapsulated it, but i kinda just assumed that no one liked the song enough to make it happen, especially not in 2022, but you absolutely NAILED IT! all of the dancing and costumes and visual gags and 4th wall breaking... the joyful chaos of it all comes across so well. bravo!
Have always hoped someone would put visuals to this song, it’s one of my favs from the show :) you did a really good job with conveying the chaos of the latter half, good stuff!!
Oh my gosh dude the animation to this was epic. Esipecslly when you shown the little sparks flying from phone to phone as the information spread and became bigger and bigger than it needed to. I caught onto that metaphor lol. I absolutely loved it, oh man this animatic did make me enjoy the song 😂 it was the only song I wasn't a fan of in Be More Chill until I watched this animatic.
Ok, im late, but im just gonna say that this is a 10/10 from me. The art style? Amazing. The storytelling? I was engaged the whole time, thats surprising for someone with my attention span. This is so creative, like, omg. The details... Just.. Everything. Also, im just gonna say... I love Rich's username 😁
DUDE HOLY CRAP! The amount of effort that you must’ve put into this is INSANE! And it’s like the PERFECT energy for this song. You understood the assignment from the get go dude
WOW THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!! The flow of everything is too notch, the expressions, the super smooth animation during the instrumental part everything was so amazing!
I've said this before and I'll say it again YOU'RE AMAZING AND EXTREMELY TALENTED!! I can't wait for more BMC!!/ Act 2/The whole BMC to be animated and binge the entire 2hrs!
This animatic got me obsessed with be more chill so I binge watched all you videos and I think I’m somewhat addicted to this one… my fav rote parts are when the third girl said “no I was crying” and Jenna’s costume design and the second phone call and the first phone call as well.
ALSO THE EXPRESSIONS. But it’s also kind of depressing how they noticed that something was wrong but their reaction doesn’t help. Like he (rich?) was in like big trouble and their whole thing how they ‘understand’ him is so bs.
i absolutely love this animation! it perfectly summed up the meaning of the song and the way you managed to do it is just incredible! keep up the amazing work!
OOH, This has got to be one of the very best BMC animatics I have ever had the pleasure of seeing, not only was it quite creative and expressive, but the presentation, the movement, and animation were all indescribably amazing.
I can't imagine how LONG this could've taken but OH MY GOSH???? IT PAID OFF???? THIS . THIS IS SO AMAZING IM ACTUALLY SO AHAHSHAJAHS I HAVE GOOSEBUMPS RN??? your frames are so creative and that one scene with the fire jumping from one phone to another??? GENIUS, the TAPED FACE MADE ME GO LIKE WOAH bc she wasn't rly the one in the fire !! this was so well thought out and your character designs are SO AWESOME I LOVE THEM AAAHDBEJS
THE FANDOM IS WELL AND ALIVE :D You have no idea how freaking happy I am cause I found this musical when most of its original fans left This animatic is so good I love it :D
YOOOOO YOU HAVE A HUGE PROGRESS FROM YOUR OLD ANIMATICS THAT I SAW, like those with Cristine (tho they were pretty cool too)! I love the way you draw each character and their emotions. The effects, transitions and stylish ideas in the frames look incredible
This is so amazing, this was very goddamn expressive i have to hand it to you, and it really does set the mood of a craze panic feeling! i really love this good job! keep up the good work!
estaba intentando hacer algo como un "cosplay de Michael" t penando en como el fandom estaba prácticamente muerto. La notificación llegó en el momento indicado!
I like how like the fandom just kinda collectively forgot that Rich just committed arson half way through the soundtrack, like this song is a banger and everyone just went "Yeah makes sense" but nobody ever goes "wait, he actually just,,, did that???"
Where is my man Jake gonna live 😂
fr like everyone was like "yeah he set a fire and burned down a house" and then just freaking moved on
It's actually pretty horrifying when you think about it. Rich was so desperate to get the squip out of his head that he literally tried to burn himself alive.. I felt so bad for him, glad he was okay in the end.
@@lydiawalton4822 i thought he was trying to kill everyone so the squip wouldn’t get to them
@@gardenagnostic wish there was a book we could read to find that out and get deeper information about the plot and the characters. Sadly the actual BMC book is absolute horse shit 💔

yeah! the part with chloe's face on jenna's was clever
Yess 👏👏👏
wdym I don’t see any picture
I love all the gossip hounds being so gleeful about the situation, then the contrast when it shows Rich clearly having the shittiest day of his life and looking really... ominous
I love that though the song no one remembers it's Jake's house and ask him if he's okay.
Someone actually says "I hope Jake's okay" but it's faint
@@candylandish when is that?
4:18
It’s in one of the voices
i always thought the title "smartphone hour" was like a subtle reference to bye bye birdie since one of the first numbers is "telephone hour" and it has a similar mood of spreading the word through calling/texting/social media
Not really, it's mostly because they do are like in their early teens and this is supposed to be the smartphone hour parents sometimes give kids
Yee me too
@@Emibee. Actually the title is indeed supposed to be a reference to bye bye birdie
@@kettle9416 and also in the original book from 2004 it was the telephone hour or cellphone hour or something
Woah that’s cool, never really thought about that, but it definitely makes sense!
The "this you?" text in reference to the body bag is way funnier than it should be pdhdbdvfbd
i really like 4:04 cuz it kinda represents how misinformation spreads, with every line coming from the phones are all different
I really love how this song shows how news go in the school when something happens. Pretending that they know everything that happen and they are friends with people that suffer. Some people say this song is unnecessary but I love it and I’m glad that you did this so beautiful, your style is amazing
CHLOE’S FACE TAPED ON TOP OF JENNA’S… I CAN’T. SOBBING.
I don’t know who rich is or why he burned down the house but I feel bad for him
im obsessed with this comment
As someone who is to into this musical..
*Feel bad for our sweet baby*
This is the correct response
@@Potatoes654 We all feel bad for Richie
This is the correct response
A Be More Chill animatic? IN 2022? It's more likely than you think.
Jokes aside, this is really cool and I love your style! Especially how you drew Rich 💞
Still wish they existed in 2023
2:13 was so good also Rich is so adorable and chaotic (even tho he’s having a mental breakdown) And 2:55 is such a sick frame. And I LOVE how Jenna, Chloe and Brooke are literally just the powerpuff girls, ICONIC!!! And they’re just drawn so well, your Chloe can literally step on me. Another thing, I love love love that Rich’s username is ‘Richesgetbitchez’ with a Z and Jake’s is ‘YaboyJake’ they just make so much sense! AND, Rich with squipped eyes at the end is so fucking smart
At first i didn't realize how absolutely true you are about Rich
I love how it keeps changing from one persons phone to the other since that's kind how misinformation starts
Okay but this probably my favorite BMC animatic??? Like??? The storytelling? Amazing. The animation? Beautiful. The designsand characterization? Fucking on point! It's just to freaking amazing omfg

It's early 2023 and I am still into it
Lmaooo I love the play. Kinda hated the book ngl. First time I read a book and disliked it compared to the adaptation.

This is amazing! I've always loved how you do expressions.
Also the 'fly high' and 'this you?' Took me out
Oh my god I'm so impressed by the sending animation sequence with everyone's different ways of sending/wording, like the lightning for excited shit talkers, the flowers for the sympathetic ones, etc...
Definitely my favorite part of my god this is SO well done 😭💙💙💙
every. fucking. FRAME. of this animatic is a masterpiece. all of the parts and transitions are so well-connected and thought out. absolutely flawless. not to mention the song that you chose to animate. you are an absolute god
carrying the bmc fandom on your back
I swear this song is just the entire plot of dear Evan Hansen in one song
THE ENDING COULDNT HAVE BEEN DONE BETTER
Damn this brought me back to 2016, super good tho!!!
Don't know what it is about it, but good lord I find Jenna's animation at 0:26 adorable as heck
This is my favorite song from this musical and you animated it perfectly! There’s so much detail in every second and you always keep everything moving. The transitions are _so_ smooth and this was overall such an original animatic! I love it!
Thank you!!!
Just the first few frames are already amazing holy crap- you’re so skilled! :D

AYO 2 WEEKS AGO THIS COMMUNITY STILL ALIVE? NO WAY I LOVE THIS SM 😭😭
YO THIS IS SO GOOD???? I laughed out loud various times, great job man!!
This is one of the best animatics I've ever seen. Each scene was so original and this was endlessly entertaining the whole way through. Good job!
never thought i'd see a bmc animatic in 2022, but i am genuinely surprised at how well made this is. i love it sm!!
this is literally a masterpiece omg
this is one of the most creative and entertaining animatics I've seen in awhile I love it
BROOOOO THIS WAS SO GOOD, that was some damn good editing and a huge commitment and it looks great!!
fcats about this song:
A) rich set it as a s^cide attempt
B) michael was still in the bathroom (the knocking in his song was pepole trynna warn him)
C) jake broke his legs trynna save rich from the fire
D) WHNE CAN I GET SOME RED MOUTNI DEW!? ITS LIKE NORMAL MOUTNIN DEW JUST RED!
hey saw the description and just wanna say the smartphone hour is actually a clever link back to an older musical classic called telephone hour :)
from bye bye birdie, haha yeah I know I just be joking around
Ok so ive never seen this musical and never heard of it and this kinda just popped up in my feed and i cant stop watching its too good of a song
OH MY GOD this is absolutely brilliant!!! this song just has so much energy, i always dreamed of an animatic that encapsulated it, but i kinda just assumed that no one liked the song enough to make it happen, especially not in 2022, but you absolutely NAILED IT! all of the dancing and costumes and visual gags and 4th wall breaking... the joyful chaos of it all comes across so well. bravo!
A BMC animatic? In 2022?! Holy shit
this is crazy good omg. the whole thing is so expressive AHHH
I’m glad the fandom is still alive! Request: “The Pitiful Children” animatic- Broadway version. (“Christine is begging for assistance Jeremy..”)
Have always hoped someone would put visuals to this song, it’s one of my favs from the show :) you did a really good job with conveying the chaos of the latter half, good stuff!!
i love how the information gets spread in different sparks, so it kinda shows how the info gets changed based on how someone words it :)
my favorite song in the musical and ughh u do it such justice!! good work, very creative animatic
THIS IS SO WELL DONE. now one of my favorite BMC animatics !!
Oh. My. Gods. I LOVE THIS. IT’S DEFINITELY ONE OF THE GREATEST BMC ANIMATICS I’VE SEEN!
