      If that happened to me I would be confused, terrified, and convinced God exists

    Reminds me of that lore stream Martyn did when he talked about c!Pearl and how she was forced into the next game while not being emotionally prepared for it bcs of the trauma of just witnessing a suicide in her last moments (hence why she was temporary replaced by Lizzie so she can have time to heal).

    -The transition from the winner winning then then realizing they’re in a new game
    -The transitions in general, they’re all so smooth and amazing
    -The clock chiming right in time with the double life deaths
    -The way the music warps as it shows off the winners

And the transition between double life to limited life with pearl was SO COOOOL!!! I love every single thing about this! I especially love the song choice, both it’s intensity and carefree nature perfectly sums up the life series in general. And the angsty ending with the purple effects??? Such a cool bit!!

    I keep rewatching this, it's SO GOOD! The touches with Jimmy and the canary wings, the winners coming into the new season looking confused while everyone else is going about it normally, the animations are wonderfully done and hold so much movement and weight. It's a treat to watch!
    At 2:01, I love the purple symbols for all of them, Grian with the wings and the eye symbolizing the Watchers, Scott with the stars around his head because of his skin and his whole origin thing, Pearl with the crescent moon because of her name. I'm assuming Martyn's hand is outlined because of the fragment that was restored and him being the hand to other players like Ren and Scott, but what's the markings on his head represent?

    The transitions, the detail, the timing! Absolutely perfect! I love how the winners just pop into the next season without skipping a beat. Grian jumped off a cliff and landed in a chair, Scott fell out of the world and next to Pearl, Pearl watched Scott explode and was suddenly surrounded by the other lifers. wonderful!

    Rusty, just when I think you couldn’t blow me away anymore! With every new animation I can see this improvement, but especially here! The transitions, the timing, the smoothness of the animation and all the little details you added 😭 I got literal chills watching this AHHHHHHH

    I am just in awe. The music fits the series so well. I especially love the little canary wings Jimmy gets every time he’s out first, continuing his curse. And the cut from double to limited life? Perfect. Also, the deaths in double life? MY GOD. It’s beautiful, and the music syncs up so well. Well done Rusty, you’ve blown us all away once again.

  • @anonbefallen4807
    @anonbefallen4807 8 місяців тому +6

    It's like a death loop almost. In a sense, it's cruel because you remember what happened last time, but if you can't keep winning, you'll just forget you were in a loop at all. You could spend your entire time trying to free yourself but if you could not also win again you would just go right back to being oblivious. I love it!

    This is so well-done! I’ve been rewatching so many times over the past few days, and I want to take note of some really cool things you did!
    - the music is so fitting for the series and animation! Before I looked at the description I legit thought you composed it for this
    - The transitions between series are so well-done! You convey the disorientation of the winners nicely
    - Jimmy’s canary wings each series was a nice detail
    - Bdubs’ broken clock at 0:16 is a nice touch
    - The way you draw Lizzie’s hair is just very satisfying. I have no clue why
    - The transition to the ghast farm at 0:36 was very clever
    - The camera-panning from 0:44 to 0:49 was so cool to look at
    - Love how you showed the pairings in Double Life! From Jimmy and Tango rocking out together to Cleo and Martyn’s contempt, you portrayed the pairings’ dynamics well
    - The hearts breaking at 1:01 is cool
    - How you portrayed the soulbound deaths was cool as well! I appreciate the detail that the person who died is always shown on the right side of the screen
    - I like how Limited Life begins in a circle, as if the players themselves are the clock ticking down (1:31)
    - Jimmy’s transformation into a canary at 1:51 is so seamless. The transitions in this section in general are really well-done
    - Going off of that last point, the transition from Etho swinging the axe up followed by the bombs coming down (1:53) is so cool, since the viewer expects a downward motion already with the axe
    - Martyn swinging down with the axe then immediately falling like at the end of his video (1:58) is very nice as well
    - Then the lore at the end too!
    Overall, this was very enjoyable to watch; great job!

    I love the music choice for this- It’s cheery but also dangerous to the point you don’t know what’s going to happen. Which is perfect for the Life series! Your art fits so well with this too I’m super impressed! I’m also impressed how much of four seasons you were able to fit into one song goodness!!

    i love the idea that when a person wins the next season immediately follows. only the winner sees this sudden change and knows how horrible it is. the ones who die don't understand the infinite loop of death and misery they just know they need to fight and survive.

    Sometimes an AMV is so good that screaming in caps really doesn't fully express just how much I'm losing my mind over it. This is one of those. I know I'm writing calmly here, but that's because I'm internally screeching to the point where I'm just numb. Rusty, I'm completely overwhelmed by the number of details and the level of care and attention and craft you poured into each second of this video. Everything looks so fluid and intentional, the transitions are immaculate, the designs and movements are perfectly readable despite the speed in some parts, and just the overall tone and story you conveyed was masterfully done. Left me with goosebumps. I don't know that I could tie together all four Life Series so far into such a single compact, yet exquisitely told animation. I shall be dissecting each moment at .25 speed for animation study. I aspire to create stuff like this.

  • @lumaberrycream

    this is soooooo cool omg, i love the shift from series to series via the winner, implying that they remembered it (looking around while everyone else is acting normal). and getting soooo hype about specific deaths, i cheered seeing etho's fishing rod kill on scar in last life, it looked so cool!!!! and keeping everything like. on beat? no words! we know these stories well enough by now. so sick, so cool, watching forever and ever. oh AND the music and timing staying the same across intros and deaths gives the feeling that it's all just happening no matter what, it's inevitable and not stopping. just really awesome all around :D

  • @PTUBE101_
    @PTUBE101_ 7 місяців тому +6

    Here’s an idea for a transition from Limited Life to Secret Life
    After killing Scott and impulse, Martyn runs out of time and he looks up to see the elimination lightning bolt about to strike him. Martyn closes his eyes and starts to manically laugh as he prepares for the lightning strike. The frame zooms in on his face as Martyn stops laughing out of confusion and opens his eyes. The frame zooms out and Martyn is suddenly standing before The Secret Keeper. Cue montage of the events in Secret Life (Tasks, Boogeypocalypse, etc…) ending with Scar winning

  • @fatalglitter

    The sequences of the deaths in double life, the smooth transition between Grian being shot down by Joel to Scar being pulled up by Etho, to Jimmy turning into a canary each time he has his final death and AUGH I can't stop watching this!! I love it so much!!

    0:22 I love this scene, mainly because of one thing.
    Martyn’s the only person in which we can’t see his face. The rest we can.
    I might be wrong, but Martyn sort of betrayed the Southlands by spying for the Fairy Fort. He’s the only one not willing to look us in the eyes.
    This is just my perception of it LOL.

  • @ThunderSquadStudios
    @ThunderSquadStudios Рік тому +8

    I like how for the winners or the survivors of previous sessions drop ever so slightly into the next, like they remember what happened last time and everyone else that died doesn’t. And so at the end where the winners are all together they realize that they had to live and see their friends die twice. It’s so tragic! Overall I love this can’t wait to see more of your work!

  • @darkdragoness5
    @darkdragoness5 8 місяців тому +1

    One thing I love is how you connect each series by the winner suddenly waking up in the next game after they win. Like how when Grian stepped off the cliff, he suddenly finds himself with the Southlanders, then Scott celebrates his victory and suddenly finds himself soul mates with Pearl.

  • @lolli_popples

    I love the movement in this piece.
    Like, so cute!!!
    The art style dude!!!!
    Might I just say, I love the little movement at 0:28 with Skizz and the shield. It just fits his personality so well. And the sword movement with Ren and Lizzy right prior to it.
    Everything's paced so well, leaving room to remember the storyline, but being finished in a flash.
    Also, let's just talk about the HANDS. Like, I'm in awe that they actually CONSISTENTLY look great.
    And the movement. Your understanding of moving the camera. Like, I dunno how to do cool stuff like that, so it blows my mind to see folks accomplish it well.
    The energy in the drawing of Team Ranchers. It's just perfect for Tango and Jimmy.
    The way you portrayed each soulmate pairing is 100% the vibes each one brought. Whether in the face palm of Grian or the annoyed/disgusted expressions on Cleo and Martyn and the fist bump between Joel and Etho. LIKE again, all of those actions just really follow the group's dynamics.
    The feral look in Pearl's eyes and Tilly beside her. The chaos portrayed in seconds, perfectly timed to the music.
    And taking us from the ending with Pearl, and moving on RIGHT TO LIMITED LIFE. Like that was SUCH A SMOOTH TRANSITION. My word.
    Grian just so confused but having to take the sunglasses.
    Mean gills popping out of the water lol
    THE CANARY FLYING!!!!
    Oh I love that so much!
    Everything moved so fast. I paused this so many times. And I DID NOT think there'd be watcher lore at the end, but that is perfect. Now I need to watch this without pausing 50 times lol.
    I love everything about this though. So amazing.
