I like the detail of how fireheart and cloudpaw still had their collars when bluestar lost her faith. It makes sense she would just see them as kittypets without her belief in starclan to give them significance
I love how Bluestar starts seeing the world as abstract and Sharp, representing the fact that she doesn't know what she's looking at is the truth or not.
fun hack for anyone who's lurking in the comments. go to settings and set the speed to 1.5 and watch through the stylised parts like that. while editing the pmv, i would play it at that speed for fun. i call it the Bluestar Anxiety Simulator.
I like it how bluestar sees Fireheart as a crying child who still wears his kittypet collar, like he's still that naive kit who just wants things to be right. And you know what? It's true. Firestar havent changed his way of thinking through years, and he always have been that kitten with his big dream to save the peace, and this is what makes him such a great leader. Wonderful video and amazing idea, you did a great work with the designs!
oh my gosh,,, the way you showed how bluestar started to see other cats after tigerstar attacked is so unique!!!!!!!!!! you really showed the emotions she felt!! keep on the great work
Correct me if i’m wrong, but I feel like Firestar crying in every scene after Tigerstar attacks Bluestar is to represent how he wishes Bluestar could be her old self, not some restless leader. Or how Firestar had felt the pain Bluestar felt *I don’t know I just feel like him crying in every scene means something-*
I saw it as because he was a KittyPet, she only saw what KittyPets normally are; afraid and soft. She has seen this fear in a KittyPet before, Tiny/Scourge, and also CloudTail is seen as a crying KittyPet, so maybe that's what's up? But hey, that's just a theory...A GA-
@Apples and Cream that’s why i thought he was much rounder and fluffier in his stylized version, as well as wearing a collar when he doesn’t have one normally!
I love Fireheart always crying, maybe representing that he's a very sensitive cat wanting to resolve everything with peace that's why he's the one telling Bluestar to be calm
I love how the style changed after Bluestar got attacked and how she saw everyone even Fireheart her deputy. I love it! And how Darkstripe and longtail looked sharp since they were Tigerstar's friends it gives good details since they were always by his side and were snappy and rude. But i love it! It matches Bluestar a lot!
This is definitely one of the more interesting Warrior Cat PMVs I've seen. The way you portrayed Bluestar in this was great. I also did get a little confused by the sudden change in art style, but then I realized it was how Bluestar saw the cats around her. 100/10, will most likely have this on in the background on repeat as I do various things on my computer over the next few days
thank you for your comment !! you’re one of the first people who realised that the style change wasn’t just a style change, but indeed how she saw them ! ‘safe’ cats are rounded, untrustworthy cats are pointy, and fireheart has his kittypet collar to show hes so far removed from the traitor of thunderclan
Vogelchan With that in mind. I really like how Bluestar is made up of both rounded and pointed shapes. Potentially representing that she has limited trust in herself after the betrayal of Tigerclaw, feeling like she both failed herself and her clan.
i really love how the people closer to bluestar, like fireheart and bluestar's mom (sorry i can't remember her name, it's been years since i read the books) are drawn more round to possibly show bluestar's more connected to them, or trusts them slightly? while all the other cats are drawn as angular to show she doesn't trust them
I love that "be calm" is always said by fireheart, its a subtle way to show how he is doing his best to support the unstable sentient cactus that is bluestar
Can we just appreciate all the little details in this? One that I caught was that when Bluestar was attacking the dog the background colours make sense for the first time in the more abstract style.
I love how I thought it was a mouse on the preview. One old paranoic blue mouse. That's just brilliant, my dude, I remember thinking "oh, she's just crazy" when I was reading the series for the first time. And I never thought of it again. Thank you for making me return to this theme 💖
This,,, This is gold This took me really out of my comfort zone at first, but I was so pleasantly surprised with the art direction and just,, the whole thing just melts my heart Both of your styles are amazing and unique, and all the effort put in this really shows. I love the end, people tend to forget the trauma that Firestar goes through in the Darkest Hour, almost losing his faith just like Bluestar. Everything in this is so good, from the music choice to the concept and the finished projet, you did an exceptional job !
this pmv got recommended to me at what turned out to be the beginning of one of the worst parts of my life, late feb 2020, and i used to watch it over and over through my late february 2020-early march covid episode, and through the following year and a half before eventually long covid was diagnosable. the intial onset of covid triggered a panic disorder related to breathing that to this day was probably the worst thing i have ever experienced, in conjunction with the lockdowns aa few weeks after (i was asthmatic and worked at a dog kennel, front end, with international business travelers) i wanted yall to know, you never knew me, and you had no idea, but this song and video specifically was a huge comfort to me and helped ground me as a very very scared 22/23 year old who couldn't get answers from anyone. It is also a fantastic representation of the mental health issues from before covid that i had felt i *finally* conquerred a few months before getting covid. I used to just watch this between the covid panic attacks and on the way to my old work after. its been over 4 years but this song ended up being number 2 in my spotify that year. thank you for your beautiful art and beautiful animation and depictions of paranoia/panic/fear/loss of trust in the trustworthy/the descent into It All and thank you for getting it out when you did. Like, from the bottom of my heart
I like how after she gets attacked by Tigerclaw she sees every cat with spiky edges except for Fireheart. At the time she thought he was the only cat she could trust so he has smooth edges.
I really love this! It kind looks like after Tigerstar's betrayal, her world becomes cracked and different and see Fireheart(star) as still an almost a child in a way?
This is so amazing! And I really love the aesthetic after Bluestar is attacked by Tigerclaw! I love themed PMVs or AMVs, I think it works better in a way to use symbolism and yours is really great and unique! Never seen one like this one before.
Wow his is so cool! I love the style change,also the fact Cloudtail and Fireheart still have collars in the simplified/ distorted style! I especially love how angular all the 'evil' cats are!
When I first watched this I was like "wh.. what?" So I rewatched it out of confusion. But in the 2nd viewing I realized so many things that I didnt catch the 1st time. It truly is amazing.
I hate how absolutelty underated this is. Like, W H A T. You and Vogel did so freaking great and it just amazes me how well you put this together. You're both awesome
I love all the little details in this, that while you do have to look to notice it, you don't have to squint and watch 10 other videos to get them. - Everyone Bluestar sees as allies are round, everyone she sees as enemies are pointy, and everyone she's neutral about is a mix. - During Tigerstar's attack there are 9 frames that include Bluestar: 1 to 6 feature artistic Bluestar, 7 is artistic Bluestar with stylistic eyes, 8 is stylistic Bluestar with artistic colours + markings and eyes, 9 is stylistic Bluestar. - Fireheart has a blue collar, while Cloudtail has a red one, symbolizing the cats who brought them into clan life, Bluestar and Fireheart respectively.
i really appreciate your eye for detail !!! i was wondering if anyone would notice about the collar colours and also the mixing and matching of styles during tigerstars attack !!!
ABSTRACTING HOW BLUESTAR SEES OTHERS AFTER HER TRAUMA IS SO SO GOOD!!!! i ADORE this, as someone w ptsd i can relate hard to having your reality feel Completely Different after something horrible happens and just.... when it resolves at the end!! i love this so much keep it up!
This is one of the most heartfelt and unique Bluestar PMVs I've ever seen - it really stands out from the pack. The isometric style and symbolism in the style(s) used is absolutely brilliant - Amazing work to both of you!!
I love the change to abstraction to show her losing grip on reality.. it really brings me back. It’s been a long time since i read those books but this managed to stir those same feelings again
This made me cry. This reminded me of how beautiful of a character Bluestar was. In my opinion? Her arc is probably the best written in the entire series. Nothing will ever top Into the Wild (to be fair I’m only on power of three, tho I have gotten a few spoilers lmao) and this made me miss the thrill and excitement and suspense from the first series. Why can’t the rest of this wonderful story be told like how the first series was? Gosh, anyway, amazing art. Symbolism is everywhere. Oop now I’m crying again-
i love that shot of Tallstar (i think?) in the sharp, scary art style in reference to when Thunderclan thought Windclan was behind the dogs, really great attention to detail!!
oh my god this is AMAZING! i loved how it switched from i guess more realistic to blockier and more solid colours and no shading it’s just ugh you are so talented and i loved how everything looked and matched with the song, from how bluestar sees fireheart and cloudpaw with collars to how everybody is shown crying y’all are so good at your jobssssss
This is absolutely perfect. I love the uniqueness of the art of Bluestar's paranoid mind. It's perfectly potrays the craziness of Bluestar's mind and and then jumps back to the more normal style to show that she has healed. Brilliant! All praises to the artists. 💙
THIS. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. THE SYMBOLISM- THE ART- *MAGNIFICENT* seriously though! this is amazing! you can tell how much effort was put into this and i LOVE IT also man this doesn't look like it took 6 months, it looks like it took over a YEAR in quality tbh
I love the transitions.. like the normal art style is when she super calm and accepting of her life... then the really cool abstract version is when she goes insane and is tense.
I ADORE the ending of this in particular. All of the buildup of how Bluestar views the world, coming to a close as her death approaches, then she offers the same support to Firestar as a new danger approaches. It's brilliant, and I really love this PMV's stylistic choices.
I'm sorry but I had to comment. The choice of song, how the art style changes to portray the feelings of Bluestar is phenomenal. I will probably be lost in the comments, but you did an amazing job!!
AHHHHH. This was so good guys!! I can tell a lot of work and passion went into it. Of course the style in the beginning and end was spectacular looking, plus the transition into the wacky style. Also, the main style was soo pretty and creative!! I loved it soo much. Even the editing that made the pictures move to the beat, it was amazing! Altogether, this was an awesome PMV. Props to Darkyfoot and Vogelchan for sharing this masterpiece to the world!
Details: Bluestar's allies and closer friends are round. Her enemys are spikey and sharp. Neutral cats are a mix. Both fireheart and cloudpaw still have collars. Fireheart's is blue because bluestar brought him into clan life. Cloudpaw has a red one because fireheart brought him into clan life Instead of everything instantly turning abstract. It happens a little bit at a time. First thing. Eyes. Second. Shape. Third. Colour. This was an amazing map! I absolutely love it. And how bluestar still sees fireheart as just a crying naive child who just wants peace!
Dang... I actually loved this so much? The way that everything became so much simpler and vibrant when she went 'insane' is actually the best ever? This is actually my favorite thing ever thank you! Amazing job! 😭❤️
god i love the art style change when bluestar loses her faith and mind. its more visceral and she looks like a deer in headlights. fireheart and cloudpaw/tail having their collars is also a nice touch.
This is so frickin’ amazing!!! It’s my new favorite Warriors PMV and it deserves way more attention. I mean, the way you changed her perspective and style when Tigerclaw attacked her was so unique and creative! And this song fits really well. I love all the designs too and all the little details you added! For example, how CloudPaw/tail and FireHeart still had their collars on in her eyes! Everything about this is just incredible. Amazing job!!
Warriors is getting a Cubist/Modernist movement and I for one am HERE FOR IT!!!! Great job with the bold color and style choices! My favorite part had to be the sharp designs of the Starclan cats during Bluestar's ceremony, and the panic in her eyes as she cycles through her nine lives. Lovely touch!
I like how Yellowfang is like the star clan cats when she's shown dead. And how Bluestar doesn't see Fireheart as a grown cat but as a child. Like this entire thing is just a work of art you did a fantastic job on it
OH MY GOD- How is this so amazing? It's so cool how in the scariest parts of Bluestar's life the art style changed to blocky, weird shapes. I just love it!
I've watched this PMV numerous times since its release and it never fails to amaze me. It is one of my top favorites of all time. Its so amazing and so much time and love and thought was clearly put into it. You both did amazing and I can't wait to see what you do next!
I'm a few months late, but I really like how you managed to tackle Bluestar's trauma and mental state without glorifying anything! The simple yet distorted style really works in terms of storytelling.
I know I’m so so so late for this but there are so many small details that make this so so much better! I love every bit about this pmv. And it now lives in my brain rent free after the first watch.
This is so good! I love how the style became more abstract and brightly colored when she lost faith then went back to a more realistic and *"calmer"* style after she gained it back! I love visual representations of story and character development :D
This is one of those animations that just has a lot of feels.characters like bluestar,yellowfang,and crookedstar all went through help so they could be stronger as characters,and stronger for those around them.warriors is one of those series that gives you the feels for these characters
I like how it seems to be from the perspective of Bluestar. When her life is going good, and her mental health is stable, so is the art. Once she loses her mental stability, her world changes, and everything feels out of place. When she finally gets everything aligned once more, she is back to being stable, and her world makes so much more sense to her.
Just the beautiful artistic choice to show the snapping point of how Bluestar views everything is just out of this world! This was so creative and with just shapes you were easily able to show how Bluestar saw everything around her! Amazing video!
I think I've probably already commented here but honestly I'll do it again just to say how smooth your art styles are and how cool it is that they contrast so nicely without making the whole video seem jumpy or stitched together.
oh my GOSH you and your fiance did a spectacular job!!! im so late but i absolutely love this so much?? this is such a unique and creative idea, i love the change of aesthetics and how well you pulled them off! this definitely deserves a lot of attention, can't wait to see more content from both of u!
i love how abstract the world looks after tiger claw attacks blue star! and when she’s dying she finally sees normally again, (her snapping out of insanity) very well done!
this is absolutely incredible. first off the song is really underrated. the idea of using simple shapes and vibrant colors to signify her emotional turmoil is so good and a really refreshing take. this is just so cool, good job to both of you guys!!
hey man, i just wanted to say that you're actually a major part of why i got into the fandom in the first place! my fiance's been trying to get me into warrior cats for years and i've always been into making pmv's so one day he sat me down and showed me his favourite maps/pmvs including video killed the radio star. i was inspired by the sense of community full of like-minded people who also love video projects and started reading the books because of it ! im glad you enjoyed this pmv!
Wow this is good!!! It's so creative and I love how it's also so true to the events of the books, even little ones that I'd forgotten but help tie it all together. Seeing the world 'come back' at the end with her children... that was beautiful.
I hope everyone enjoys the video!! We'll start working out our next project soon... 👀
Ok!!
Looking forward to it! :D
omg your pfp wha-
It looked SO nice! I've put it in my favorites playlist and have been listening and watching it for about the tenth time now. Most amazing video EVER!
whos are the cats right here at 1:34 and 3:45?
I like the detail of how fireheart and cloudpaw still had their collars when bluestar lost her faith. It makes sense she would just see them as kittypets without her belief in starclan to give them significance
I love how Bluestar starts seeing the world as abstract and Sharp, representing the fact that she doesn't know what she's looking at is the truth or not.
Additionally, Fireheart and Cloudpaw are the only cats who don’t look sharp and threatening, representing her mistrust and suspicion of everyone else.
i love the art direction in this- the ending was super chilling cause fireheart may be about to go through the same style change as bluestar
;)

Wonderful video and amazing idea, you did a great work with the designs!
I think the crying resembles the more trusted cats? Because Graystripe, Cinderpelt, Fireheart, and Cloudtail had the crying faces. Idk tho

it does mean something! every stylised design was chosen for a reason and that's a great interpretation of firestars design !!

This was an amazing map! I absolutely love it. And how bluestar still sees fireheart as just a crying naive child who just wants peace!
Everybody talkin' bout fireheart's collar but not cloudtail's collar.

Dang... I actually loved this so much? The way that everything became so much simpler and vibrant when she went 'insane' is actually the best ever?
This is actually my favorite thing ever thank you! Amazing job! 😭❤️
The bluestar design for her psychedelic visions is absolutely beautiful!!
god i love the art style change when bluestar loses her faith and mind. its more visceral and she looks like a deer in headlights. fireheart and cloudpaw/tail having their collars is also a nice touch.
i found this video this morning and ive been playing it on repeat all day bc holy mother of jesus the artstyle change is hecking incredible
I can’t stop watching this omg. This is probably my favorite warriors video. This is incredible.
This is so frickin’ amazing!!! It’s my new favorite Warriors PMV and it deserves way more attention. I mean, the way you changed her perspective and style when Tigerclaw attacked her was so unique and creative! And this song fits really well. I love all the designs too and all the little details you added! For example, how CloudPaw/tail and FireHeart still had their collars on in her eyes! Everything about this is just incredible. Amazing job!!
Warriors is getting a Cubist/Modernist movement and I for one am HERE FOR IT!!!! Great job with the bold color and style choices! My favorite part had to be the sharp designs of the Starclan cats during Bluestar's ceremony, and the panic in her eyes as she cycles through her nine lives. Lovely touch!
I like how Yellowfang is like the star clan cats when she's shown dead. And how Bluestar doesn't see Fireheart as a grown cat but as a child. Like this entire thing is just a work of art you did a fantastic job on it
OH MY GOD- How is this so amazing? It's so cool how in the scariest parts of Bluestar's life the art style changed to blocky, weird shapes. I just love it!
This actually made me cry, it's so good & I love bluestar and fireheart's relationship so much
I've watched this PMV numerous times since its release and it never fails to amaze me. It is one of my top favorites of all time. Its so amazing and so much time and love and thought was clearly put into it. You both did amazing and I can't wait to see what you do next!
I'm a few months late, but I really like how you managed to tackle Bluestar's trauma and mental state without glorifying anything! The simple yet distorted style really works in terms of storytelling.
I can't stop rewatching this
I know I’m so so so late for this but there are so many small details that make this so so much better! I love every bit about this pmv. And it now lives in my brain rent free after the first watch.
literally never seen a warrior cats vid as unique as this. something about this resonates with me like CRAZY, good stuff 😤👌
This is so good! I love how the style became more abstract and brightly colored when she lost faith then went back to a more realistic and *"calmer"* style after she gained it back! I love visual representations of story and character development :D
This is one of those animations that just has a lot of feels.characters like bluestar,yellowfang,and crookedstar all went through help so they could be stronger as characters,and stronger for those around them.warriors is one of those series that gives you the feels for these characters
I like how it seems to be from the perspective of Bluestar. When her life is going good, and her mental health is stable, so is the art. Once she loses her mental stability, her world changes, and everything feels out of place. When she finally gets everything aligned once more, she is back to being stable, and her world makes so much more sense to her.
i love that mostly everyone is sharp except fireheart to bluestar, very characteristic! :)
This literally gave me chills
Just the beautiful artistic choice to show the snapping point of how Bluestar views everything is just out of this world! This was so creative and with just shapes you were easily able to show how Bluestar saw everything around her! Amazing video!
THIS REALLY PUT ME OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE BUT I THINK THATS THE POINT AND I LOVE IT
I used to be OBSESSED with this song... now I can be obsessed with this PMV!! This is sooooo creative I love it so much
This needs more love. Really, it does.
I think I've probably already commented here but honestly I'll do it again just to say how smooth your art styles are and how cool it is that they contrast so nicely without making the whole video seem jumpy or stitched together.
I love how fire and cloud are soft and round to push home the fact theyre kittypets. The constant crying is also a loved feature
oh my GOSH you and your fiance did a spectacular job!!! im so late but i absolutely love this so much?? this is such a unique and creative idea, i love the change of aesthetics and how well you pulled them off! this definitely deserves a lot of attention, can't wait to see more content from both of u!
i love how abstract the world looks after tiger claw attacks blue star! and when she’s dying she finally sees normally again, (her snapping out of insanity) very well done!
This is amazing! I love the style change in the middle, its a wonderful way to show Bluestar's lost faith in Starclan.
Your work is amazing! This is one of my favorite pmvs!
This is so cute and amazingly great! I love how you showed the cats after the attack!!!
this is absolutely incredible. first off the song is really underrated. the idea of using simple shapes and vibrant colors to signify her emotional turmoil is so good and a really refreshing take. this is just so cool, good job to both of you guys!!
hey man, i just wanted to say that you're actually a major part of why i got into the fandom in the first place! my fiance's been trying to get me into warrior cats for years and i've always been into making pmv's so one day he sat me down and showed me his favourite maps/pmvs including video killed the radio star. i was inspired by the sense of community full of like-minded people who also love video projects and started reading the books because of it ! im glad you enjoyed this pmv!
i.. i just really love the art style change when bluestar went through her whole breakdown.. it's a nice way of representing it
Wow this is good!!! It's so creative and I love how it's also so true to the events of the books, even little ones that I'd forgotten but help tie it all together.
Seeing the world 'come back' at the end with her children... that was beautiful.
I love everything about this video. I find it really cool how Bluestar sees Fireheart and Cloudpaw as kittypets in her mind after Tigerclaws betrayal.
This is my favorite map to watch with how consistent and unique it is
its not a map actually ! only two people worked on this one, myself and my fiance :> !
the post attack designs are beautiful, they look like they took inspiration from the intro to the water shop down movie! :) great work!!
