Thank you guys for such a warm response to this video. I'm grateful it touched many of you, and reading all the positive comments make me so happy. I drew this as the Evan before Heidi sung this to him, hoping to understand and become the Evan at the conclusion of the song. I guess we are all Evans.
pistachiosoda I hope you see this comment; this video really hits home to me because my parents divorced when I was 5 and my dad lives an 8 hour plane ride away. Anyway I love the animation if you respond it would be amazing but I know you can't respond to everyone so it's fine if you don't.
I WOULD LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THE WRITER OF DEAR EVAN HANSEN CAME TO SPEAK AT HIS OLD HIGH SCHOOL (MY CURRENT SCHOOL) AND HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE PROCESS OF PUTTING SONGS INTO HIS WORK AND HE SHOWED THIS ANIMATIC IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE SCHOOL. I FELT LIKE YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW THAT
YES!!! HE HAD SOME PEOPLE READ THE ORIGINAL SCENE BEFORE IT WAS PUT IN SONG FORM, THE HE SAID "and this is what it looks like when it's done" AND HE SHOWED THIS VIDEO
That's hardly a detriment, I'm sure the characters are supposed to be crying during the sad songs. Unless your crying is so vocal that it affects your singing, in which case... I pity you.
actually now that i think about it, in Anybody Have A Map, it shows you the parallels! Parenting alone, and not knowing what to do. and parenting with a partner, and still not knowing what to do. Its giving us a chance to grasp just how hard it is to understand your child. That no matter how close or how devoted you are to your child, you still won't know what to do sometimes.
On my birthday my mom took me to see DEH on Broadway. When this song came on and she listened to it she grabbed my hand. I will never forget the look on her face. It was one of the few times i've seen her cry in my life.
as a person who is very dependent on their mom this made me bawl due to the one lyric "is there gonna be another truck that is gonna take mommy away" this is by far the best animation I've seen for this song.
SAAAAME I lost my mom on Mothers Day a few years back (overdose...) so it gets me everytime- and the little head bob Evan does right before- OH LORD I CAN'T--
Jesus Christ that's powerful. As a child coming from a divorced home life that whole song coupled with the beautiful animation this hit home for me. The song really shows how much a divorce can hurt. For me this song just touches on every single part of a divorced household ranging from how the kid doesn't understand to how the mom knows she will fall short. And all that stuff is hard to stomach but this animatic brings along a sort of Beauty. Thank you for making this 😭❤️
Honest Rebellion 20 Ikr I also come from a divorced house hold and...I just can relate so much...and also like Evan I had only a few friends...hell I even needed a counsellor to help make friends... I was awkward lonely child...I never really got along with others and that lead me to a life of fandoms and internet...but I made some school friends and we hang out and comfort each other when feeling down...I felt like the world was against me
Well said both of you! This video shows the flashbacks amazingly! I feel like being a kid of divorce gets tougher as you get older and realize how fucking messy it really is.
not to be rude but this is a legit question. when you were little did your parents divorce actually make you sad? cause everyone in my family gets a divorce so it didnt effect me when my parents did. but some people are really hurt by it and i want to know why? not trying to be insensitive or anything
gros well it really depends on the family and the situation, my parents got divorced when I was really little so I don't remember my dad that much. While I am sad some days because I miss him, other days I don't even think of him. But with you if it's the norm than it's easy to see why you might not be as badly as affected
What I mean: *WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO DRAW OLDER EVAN CRYING, AND THEN GOING TO LITTLE EVAN BAWLING HIS EYES OUT?! AND WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO DRAW THIS PIECE OF ART THAT DOESN`T EVEN HAVE 100,000 VIEWS YET?! AND JUST LOOK AT THOSE GHIBLI TEARS, LOOK. AT. THEM!!* What I`m saying: I wish I could draw!
wow, okay... This is the first animatic that actually brought me to tears... It's just... This really is close to home... My dad left my mom when I was way smaller than Evan, and my mom was struggling with depression while taking care of a 4-year-old, and just like Evan's mom, she... She tried. A lot. We don't talk much now, not like we used to, but... This animatic left so nostalgic about that days of my mom being my whole word and the gap between us. The expressions was just amazing and i'm still sobbing, omg...
Michelle Finholdt I am so sorry for what you had to go through. I cried too but not because of something that happened to me. I love kids and it hurts knowing that they have to go through stuff like this especially after wittnising my best friend and how it affected her when her parents divorced.
Wow, I know how is it. Or something like that, because my parents divorced when I was just 1 years old. I have two older brothers and és were so young when my dad is left us. Yeah I see him every second weekend and i'm used to it, but this isn't mean that I like it or it's good to me. Because it isn't. This is why I cryed on this video. (Sry for the bad English, it isn't my main language, but I hope you can understand this )
fun fact: this song in the musical is where heidi is asking evan how he actually broke his arm. but he replied by saying "you'd hate me" i'd like to think this is a song about how she finally understood what he meant by that, realizing that he tried to commit suicide and this is her message as to how she loves him no matter what and wouldn't leave him like his father did. now go get a tissue box
literally me, her channel is what got me into dear evan hanson but I found her cuz I like the heathers, if u wanna dive right in listen to waving through a window, I literally listen to it on repeat.
oh my god the sob i had to hold back while watching this.....absolutely beautiful!!! emotional and one of the best songs of the musical. the story telling you do is wonderful.
2:50-3:10 I will have you know I have never. EVER. Cried to an animatic. But the way you did this, it's amazing. I've subscribed because I'm shocked that i actually hiccuped, and started crying. Great work! I hope to see more great videos from you!
I have never ever ever ever cried from an animatic either but the meaning and emotions just hit me right in the tear ducts I couldn't hold back the tears!
Two minutes? I started sobbing at 0:35, and by 0:40 I was crying SO badly. The goodbyes had me crying too and 1:35 is just shattering.. I don't know how people could _not_ cry at this
When it get's to the part were Evan asked if there was another truck that was going to take her away, I always cry. Because I grew up with my dad, hoping to any god out there that he wouldn't choose something else over me like my mother did... It never fails to make me cry, and what you did was perfect for this song. Showing all the emotion , its true. Thank you.
My parents divorced around 3-3,5 years ago. I can't get through this video without crying. Especially the "Your mom isn't going anywhere, your mom is staying right here, " since, just like him, I live with my mom. Dear pistachiosoda, thank you for this animatic. It's wonderful.
Man just wow... I have never cried due to an animatic before and it hurts, a lot. It hurts a lot more because I also remember the day my dad left. He showed up after being gone for awhile (like a couple of weeks) left a note for my mom then left again. I remember I was just like 'Yay dad's back!' and I followed him and saw when he put down the note and part of me knew (I had seen my parents fight before) and I just didn't want to see the words on the note. So I followed him to the door. He was teary eyed pulled me in close kissed my head hugged for awhile and said something like 'I'll be back' or 'see you later' and left. I remember my mom getting home and she saw and read the note and kinda just rushed to the restroom..... I just remembered so clearly because of this animatic... This animatic makes me really appreciate my mother and also be happy that I still see my dad but just wow. I never could've imagined this would come when I clicked on this. So seriously thank you, (sounds sarcastic but its not I swear) otherwise I would've forgotten that...
oh my god this fucked me uuuuuuupppppppp. This song always manages to turn me into a baby and it did the same here. The line "a truck that will take mommy away" always breaks me down because Evan is just a tiny kid at that point and all he has to worry about is chicken nuggets not being dinosaur shaped and girl with cooties and he just doesn't understand what's going on. his dad is just leaving and he doesn't know why and he thinks his mom is gonna leave him too and holy shit it kills me
Now, for real. This may be the second video I saw that was able to bring me into tears, and almost sobbing. Your drawings are beautiful, really proffesional I must say, and you show the characters emotions so well, it's wonderful! The song, sad by itself, was much sadder, since you showed it in a perfect way, and the viewer got attached to the story, and the characters, it was painful to see when they cried. Congratulations, you have made a piece of art.
this song really hits home for me, as my father moved out recently and has gone to live with this woman she'd been cheating on my mom for 2 years with... that part where it said there's not another truck and you'll always have your mom really.... i needed to hear it. beautiful artwork.
Zac Varg the fact that it made you cry despite your inability to personally relate to the characters speaks volumes about how well made this was. I didn’t have parents who left like this and yet I broke down over this song and perfectly made animatic and not just any sad media can do that like. Shit i cant see they these tears
"And I knew there would be moments that I'd miss. And I knew there would be space I couldn't fill. And I knew I'd come up short a million different ways and I did, and I do, and I will." This was a punch to the gut.
I just finished seeing DEH yesterday and I cried so much during this beautiful song, and now I'm emotionally incapable of going through this song without tears... THANK YOU FIR SUCH AN AMAZING ANIMATIC JOB
coming from an only child who is being raised by a single mother this song has reached my soul so fast. It’s so beautiful and the constant worry that fills the mothers mind is that she will come out short in how she won’t be at every game or every concerts because she has to work harder now to pull the two of them through
I know the animatic were 2 years now but it didn’t failed to make me cry everytime. Each time i watched this, i remember how painful and how much tears my mom had when my dad left. But she eventually came so far from that because she know she have to stay strong for us, for me and for my sisters. So thank you for making this beautiful animatic of this beautiful musical.
im shaking so hard right now. i feel so bad for evan and his mother. oh how much of a good mother she is. her emotional singing is honestly making me hold back sobs as it's almost 1am. thank you. this is the first animation ive almost choked not wanting to let out whimpers. this got me good. so thank you 💞
This is one of the most underrated songs in Dear Evan Hansen, and one of my personal favorites. Depending on my mood, I may cry listening to it... unless I'm watching this animatic. I consistently cry about halfway through watching this.
growing up my grandma WAS my mother. it was just me and her like evan and heidi. now that im in college this song just feels so different. i miss being her little girl. i miss being able to cry in her arms. now i just cry alone
I was doing okay until he came on-screen at 0:35.. when he turned smiling so brightly at 0:40 I definitely lost it, his genuine joy killed me. My crying has only worsened through the song because it's so emotional and beautiful
Poor little Evan didn't understand it was a bad thing his Dad left at first. The song without animation itself is sad, now I scrolled to this. It's perfect!
I haven't cried at a single dear Evan Hansen animatic until thus one congratulations on making me a waterfall. Seriously though this is so well done and beutiful thank you for animating this!♡♡♡
The "truck that takes mommy away" part always gets me no matter how meny times I listen, god what a beautiful song Not to mention the show all together god dam
I love this animatic. I got tears-eyed, I'm not going to deny it. What I love most about what this song and this animatic portrays is that beautiful, perfect, love that a mother has for her child. The sort of love where, on your worst day, you can go to your mom and curl up on her lap and cry and just feel like you're three years old again as your mother gently holds you and comforts you and tells you everything will be alright, no matter how bad things seem. It shows a mother's heart and strength as she tries her best to fill in the gaps, sometimes not even wholly knowing what it is she's doing or what she's trying to do or why she's doing and giving it her best shot anyway because she would do anything for her child. And what I love most about it is that physical sense of comfort and kindness that a mother shows. How she'll just hold you while you cry and comfort you, how she'll be strong for her child even when she doesn't know what to do, and how she's the kindest person anyone could ever know. I've never had to deal with a divorce like the Hansens did, but this song and this animatic get me tears-eyed every time because Heidi's words and portrayal remind me of my own mother, whom I love dearly. To all the mothers out there, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do, you incredible, incredible people.
could someone tell me how the animatic was? I couldn't see it between all my tears :') (this was amazing, I finally understand the meaning of this song, thank you.)
This is my first listen to So Big So Small, and my first time crying uncontrollably at a single line and an animatic. Said line was, “A truck that will take mommy away?” Whoever you are, dear animator, you are amazing
I have a trauma with crying, I unconsciously force myself to not cry, even if I want to, but sometimes I just lock in my room, put headphones, I put this song and cry in silence, just to vent my feelings in someway
Okay. I have to tell you because I honestly just burst into tears, the line, _"Is there another truck coming to our driveway? A truck that will take Mommy away?"_ That part, her expression, I couldn't. Kudos to you. Great animatic. Great art!
I have a playlist of things that help me feel a bit better when I’m sad and this touched me so much that I added it. I usually only put things there if it makes me feel like there’s someone out there who’s there for me. Yes I do know that it’s stupid that I have a playlist like that but don’t judge me okay? I really need a little bit of extra happiness
This reaaally hit home, since I'm pretty sure my mom felt like this too when my parents divorced, however, the video was so well done that it actually brought me to tears, and I don't like crying a lot. Great job
These " dear Even Hansen " things all ways get me crying by the end 😭 It's mostly because I can relat to most many of these songs... well not this one because I'm still young but some parts I can relate to and i sort of feel for this one because I'm adopted and i still remeber when my mom said that at had to leave with daddy and ihad to stay here for just a bit longer ( the adoption centre ) a year later I get adopted... I'm 14 now... I still remeber her her tears falling in me while she left... Beautiful animatic tho! 😅
Seeing baby Evan hearing this and watching Evan cry made me so upset I was sobbing when She remembered Evan asking if there was another truck in the driveway I was like "Well shit there goes my day"
Every time I need a good cry, I just come to this animatic, something about the voice of the music and the expressions of the characters just gets to me EVERY time so yeah, just wanted to send my thanks to you for crafting this
1:45 I SWAEEEER I lost my mom on Mothers Day a think...3? (I don't WANNA keep count, ok??) Years ago due to overdose and i just- BOI IT HURTS ME TO WATCH THAT PART-
I’m going to show this for a school project about grief since the teacher said we needed a video to show and not just the song, so thank you for the animatic :D!
I have watched this three times with a few minute breaks inbetween and I cried every time. How you draw expressions is what I dream of doing and you've inspired me to draw people again ;v; Thank you so much for this
This song makes me cry hard already, and the animatic just added more to that ahaha😂 (no literally I'm sobbing)you captured the emotions BEAUTIFULLY and honestly I can just say that it makes this song much more sentimental and powerful than it already was. Absolutely gorgeous😭😭💜
Omg this song and the animatic You have made for it was the first to bring me to tears! I almost cried during a few songs from Hamilton but this one song and this animatic just hit me hard and I literally have tears streaming down my face oml you did so great
Thank you guys for such a warm response to this video. I'm grateful it touched many of you, and reading all the positive comments make me so happy.
I drew this as the Evan before Heidi sung this to him, hoping to understand and become the Evan at the conclusion of the song.
I guess we are all Evans.
pistachiosoda its beautiful (QvQ)
Yeah, I relate to him so much! I'm crying
pistachiosoda I hope you see this comment; this video really hits home to me because my parents divorced when I was 5 and my dad lives an 8 hour plane ride away. Anyway I love the animation if you respond it would be amazing but I know you can't respond to everyone so it's fine if you don't.
Did Evan leave her?
I'm so sorry for the late reply.. I'm glad it touched you C: Hang in there bud
"Is there another truck coming to our driveway?... A truck that will take Mommy away..."

THAT PART ALWAYS GETS ME
I WOULD LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THE WRITER OF DEAR EVAN HANSEN CAME TO SPEAK AT HIS OLD HIGH SCHOOL (MY CURRENT SCHOOL) AND HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE PROCESS OF PUTTING SONGS INTO HIS WORK AND HE SHOWED THIS ANIMATIC IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE SCHOOL. I FELT LIKE YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW THAT
WHAT!!! REALLY??
YES!!! HE HAD SOME PEOPLE READ THE ORIGINAL SCENE BEFORE IT WAS PUT IN SONG FORM, THE HE SAID "and this is what it looks like when it's done" AND HE SHOWED THIS VIDEO
OH MY GOD???? IM... HONORED....
pistachiosoda HOLY SHIT PISTACHIOSODA YOU MADE IT TO THE ORIGINAL CREATOR AND WERE SO PROUD
WHY ARE WE SHOUTING!?!?!
WHAT ARE THESE SALTY LIQUIDS FALLING OUT MY EYES
The ocean wanted to listen to the music and chose you as a carrier for the chosen droplets
@@kelseywu3723 lol but 😢
First time? *insert that meme*
Moral of the song: Trucks are evil
Yes they are.
The kagepro fandom agrees (heat haze days lol)
Do ambulances count??
@ Hipster Madara I WAS THINKING THAT AAAH
You make me laugh lol, thanks
Me: Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry,

SAME THAT VERSE B Ro KE ME
TAT
*TAT*
*CRI*
Mee
If I was acting and singing in DEH they'd fire me because I wouldn't be able to finish any song without crying
same here!
Sofia Rivera Did you mean anything, any song or any thing I’d sing?
That's hardly a detriment, I'm sure the characters are supposed to be crying during the sad songs.
Unless your crying is so vocal that it affects your singing, in which case... I pity you.
You could just play it off as really good acting 😉😂
They would probablysay you're hired lmao
I... I gotta call my mum...
Call her again
And again
And tell her how much you love her
and call her again
And visit her
I saw a uhaul truck after I watched this and I cried
This comment actually made me laugh and cry at the same time TT XD
UHAUL trucks are evil. They mean the owner of the tattoo shop is moving in.
The iorny is at max levels
I saw one 1 day later, and sobbed. My mom thought I was insane
Crap I'm moving out of college tomorrow and there's gonna be U-Hauls probably oh n

in Anybody Have A Map, it is so clear that she is trying her very best, she just doesn't know what to do.

Our mom's are tough cookies, alright!
^'v'^
Omg I'd wish my mom understands english bc' this musical shows everything I wanna tell her ;-; ...and likes the musicals xd
as a person who is very dependent on their mom this made me bawl due to the one lyric "is there gonna be another truck that is gonna take mommy away" this is by far the best animation I've seen for this song.
Christa Patterson
Agreed
When kid Evan asks if another truck is coming to take mommy away, my eyes immediately well up in tears
Hannah Huang yea T3T
Christa Patterson I relate to this comment so much

Smol Sound You are a comment god.
Miya the Geekster I know right
*Smol Sound* We meet again.
god every time you make an animatic it just shakes me to my core.
dammit nOW I HAVE TO GET INTO THIS MUSICAL TOO....... SHIT
literally me, her channel is what got me into dear evan hanson but I found her cuz I like the heathers, if u wanna dive right in listen to waving through a window, I literally listen to it on repeat.
oh my god the sob i had to hold back while watching this.....absolutely beautiful!!! emotional and one of the best songs of the musical. the story telling you do is wonderful.
2:50-3:10
I will have you know I have never. EVER. Cried to an animatic. But the way you did this, it's amazing. I've subscribed because I'm shocked that i actually hiccuped, and started crying. Great work! I hope to see more great videos from you!
I have never ever ever ever cried from an animatic either but the meaning and emotions just hit me right in the tear ducts I couldn't hold back the tears!
Hamilton is the musical that makes me cried most.
DEH is the musical that makes me cried the fastest and probably the most painfully
BTW that hic is what tips me off since I'm a messy cryer/crybaby myself
I cried about 3 times listening to hamilton. 2 more for Laurens interlude and Dear Theodosia reprise.
IM NOT EVEN 2 MINUTES AND BUT LITTLE EVAN BREAKS MY HEART
Two minutes? I started sobbing at 0:35, and by 0:40 I was crying SO badly. The goodbyes had me crying too and 1:35 is just shattering.. I don't know how people could _not_ cry at this
And shall we talk about Evan breaking in tears at 2:52 ? TT^TT
I HAVENT EVEN SEEN THIS AND IM SOBBING
X'DD
When it get's to the part were Evan asked if there was another truck that was going to take her away, I always cry.

I have never cried due to an animatic before and it hurts, a lot.
It hurts a lot more because I also remember the day my dad left. He showed up after being gone for awhile (like a couple of weeks) left a note for my mom then left again. I remember I was just like 'Yay dad's back!' and I followed him and saw when he put down the note and part of me knew (I had seen my parents fight before) and I just didn't want to see the words on the note. So I followed him to the door. He was teary eyed pulled me in close kissed my head hugged for awhile and said something like 'I'll be back' or 'see you later' and left. I remember my mom getting home and she saw and read the note and kinda just rushed to the restroom.....
I just remembered so clearly because of this animatic...
This animatic makes me really appreciate my mother and also be happy that I still see my dad but just wow. I never could've imagined this would come when I clicked on this.
So seriously thank you, (sounds sarcastic but its not I swear) otherwise I would've forgotten that...
That's a big praise! I'm glad this helped you ;w;
How's your family?
oh my god this fucked me uuuuuuupppppppp. This song always manages to turn me into a baby and it did the same here. The line "a truck that will take mommy away" always breaks me down because Evan is just a tiny kid at that point and all he has to worry about is chicken nuggets not being dinosaur shaped and girl with cooties and he just doesn't understand what's going on. his dad is just leaving and he doesn't know why and he thinks his mom is gonna leave him too and holy shit it kills me

i started crying when little evan sat behind the wheel of the truck and didnt stop till it was over and now my face is all wet >:(
THE FACE EVAN MADE AT 'is there another truck coming to our driveway' I SOBBED AND AM NOW *S H O O K E T H*
this song really hits home for me, as my father moved out recently and has gone to live with this woman she'd been cheating on my mom for 2 years with... that part where it said there's not another truck and you'll always have your mom really.... i needed to hear it. beautiful artwork.
yes I know this is cheesy but I actually started crying to this. i can't relate at all but it really has me in tears. well done for making me feel sad
Zac Varg the fact that it made you cry despite your inability to personally relate to the characters speaks volumes about how well made this was. I didn’t have parents who left like this and yet I broke down over this song and perfectly made animatic and not just any sad media can do that like. Shit i cant see they these tears
oh my gosh im crying again 😂😂😂
you art just gets better every time i see it tbh 😭
THANK YOU... ;___;
"And I knew there would be moments that I'd miss.
And I knew there would be space I couldn't fill.
And I knew I'd come up short a million different ways and I did, and I do, and I will."
This was a punch to the gut.
it sucks, ya know..........
how i cant like this more than once
More accounts
Honestly this was the first animatic I actually cried at, it all felt so realistic and captured how it really was when I went to see it. Wonderful job
awwww
IT WAS MY CHOICE TO WATCH ANOTHER SO BIG SO SMALL ANIMATIC THIS WASNT THE RIGHT CHOICE IM STARTING TO SOB
This made me cry more than listening to the last song of Hamilton . This was beautifully made. Nice animatic
I CRY EVERYTIME I WATCH/LISTEN TO THIS YOU DID SUCH A GOOD JOB YOUR ART IS BEAUTIFUL AND IT CAPTURED THE SONG AND EMOTION PERFECTLY
I just finished seeing DEH yesterday and I cried so much during this beautiful song, and now I'm emotionally incapable of going through this song without tears... THANK YOU FIR SUCH AN AMAZING ANIMATIC JOB
coming from an only child who is being raised by a single mother this song has reached my soul so fast. It’s so beautiful and the constant worry that fills the mothers mind is that she will come out short in how she won’t be at every game or every concerts because she has to work harder now to pull the two of them through
I never knew how well I could fake a smile or hold back tears until I was watching this in the same room as my parents
I know the animatic were 2 years now but it didn’t failed to make me cry everytime. Each time i watched this, i remember how painful and how much tears my mom had when my dad left. But she eventually came so far from that because she know she have to stay strong for us, for me and for my sisters. So thank you for making this beautiful animatic of this beautiful musical.
im shaking so hard right now. i feel so bad for evan and his mother. oh how much of a good mother she is. her emotional singing is honestly making me hold back sobs as it's almost 1am. thank you. this is the first animation ive almost choked not wanting to let out whimpers. this got me good. so thank you 💞
0:38 EVAN LOOKS SO PURE AND HAPPY I CANT THIS IS AMAZING
This is one of the most underrated songs in Dear Evan Hansen, and one of my personal favorites. Depending on my mood, I may cry listening to it... unless I'm watching this animatic. I consistently cry about halfway through watching this.
growing up my grandma WAS my mother. it was just me and her like evan and heidi. now that im in college this song just feels so different. i miss being her little girl. i miss being able to cry in her arms. now i just cry alone
little evan? m,ore like killing me wouldbeeasier
there are legitimate tears in my eyes, i cried into the soup i was eating, oh dear
I was doing okay until he came on-screen at 0:35.. when he turned smiling so brightly at 0:40 I definitely lost it, his genuine joy killed me. My crying has only worsened through the song because it's so emotional and beautiful
Poor little Evan didn't understand it was a bad thing his Dad left at first. The song without animation itself is sad, now I scrolled to this. It's perfect!
I haven't cried at a single dear Evan Hansen animatic until thus one congratulations on making me a waterfall. Seriously though this is so well done and beutiful thank you for animating this!♡♡♡
THIS LITERALLY MADE ME CRY
THIS IS BY FAR ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITE ANIMATICS OF THIS SONG AND I APPLAUDE YOU FOR MAKING ME SOB IN THE MIDDLE OF CHURCH
You won’t cry this time…
“Now it’s just me…and my little guy”
WAAAAA!
CAN U HEAR ME CRYING
The "truck that takes mommy away" part always gets me no matter how meny times I listen, god what a beautiful song
Not to mention the show all together god dam
First DEH song I've ever listened too
I don't remember cutting onions...
The first one I listened to was Sincerely, Me
Oh boy, was the full musical a shock
I love this animatic. I got tears-eyed, I'm not going to deny it. What I love most about what this song and this animatic portrays is that beautiful, perfect, love that a mother has for her child. The sort of love where, on your worst day, you can go to your mom and curl up on her lap and cry and just feel like you're three years old again as your mother gently holds you and comforts you and tells you everything will be alright, no matter how bad things seem. It shows a mother's heart and strength as she tries her best to fill in the gaps, sometimes not even wholly knowing what it is she's doing or what she's trying to do or why she's doing and giving it her best shot anyway because she would do anything for her child. And what I love most about it is that physical sense of comfort and kindness that a mother shows. How she'll just hold you while you cry and comfort you, how she'll be strong for her child even when she doesn't know what to do, and how she's the kindest person anyone could ever know. I've never had to deal with a divorce like the Hansens did, but this song and this animatic get me tears-eyed every time because Heidi's words and portrayal remind me of my own mother, whom I love dearly. To all the mothers out there, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do, you incredible, incredible people.
could someone tell me how the animatic was? I couldn't see it between all my tears :') (this was amazing, I finally understand the meaning of this song, thank you.)
This is my first listen to So Big So Small, and my first time crying uncontrollably at a single line and an animatic.
Said line was,
“A truck that will take mommy away?”
Whoever you are, dear animator, you are amazing
I have never cried listening to this song before, even though it hits a little close to home, but god dammit you did it. Congrats
I have a trauma with crying, I unconsciously force myself to not cry, even if I want to, but sometimes I just lock in my room, put headphones, I put this song and cry in silence, just to vent my feelings in someway
Oh great. The only song that made me break down sobbing and snotting in DEH. Thanks. No don't worry, I'm fine. *waterfall of tears*
Okay. I have to tell you because I honestly just burst into tears, the line, _"Is there another truck coming to our driveway? A truck that will take Mommy away?"_ That part, her expression, I couldn't. Kudos to you. Great animatic. Great art!
I have a playlist of things that help me feel a bit better when I’m sad and this touched me so much that I added it. I usually only put things there if it makes me feel like there’s someone out there who’s there for me. Yes I do know that it’s stupid that I have a playlist like that but don’t judge me okay? I really need a little bit of extra happiness
Seeing it with the drawings actually made me flat out cry which was something that the normal song couldn't do
Amazing animatic
This reaaally hit home, since I'm pretty sure my mom felt like this too when my parents divorced, however, the video was so well done that it actually brought me to tears, and I don't like crying a lot. Great job
this actually made me cry
the way you draw them and put out their emotions just made me tear up
You could tell how much work you put into this and it's beautiful I love it and the first time I saw this I cried so hard
I watched it at least five times and still cry... especially at little Evan 😭😭
i always cry when I watch this animatic
and when i listen to the song I just imagine these scenes and cry again
These " dear Even Hansen " things all ways get me crying by the end 😭
It's mostly because I can relat to most many of these songs... well not this one because I'm still young but some parts I can relate to and i sort of feel for this one because I'm adopted and i still remeber when my mom said that at had to leave with daddy and ihad to stay here for just a bit longer ( the adoption centre ) a year later I get adopted... I'm 14 now... I still remeber her her tears falling in me while she left...
Beautiful animatic tho! 😅
UHM. HOLY HELL? U BROUGHT ME TO TEARS.That moment where Evan sat in the truck brought me to tears. UR ARTWORK HAS BROUGHT ME CLOSER TO MY MOM.
I've watched this video a few different times now, and I can't help tearing up EVERY TIME.
IT HURTS.
HEIDI TRIES //SO HARD// AND I'M IN PAIN.
I rewatched this animatic because I remember watching it years ago and it made me ball my eyes out (this is a complement)
SEVEN MONTHS AGO? it's felt like less time than that
Seeing baby Evan hearing this and watching Evan cry made me so upset I was sobbing when She remembered Evan asking if there was another truck in the driveway I was like "Well shit there goes my day"
I just saw the movie.
This one animatic has more emotion in it than the entire thing.
The biggest character development is Evan wearing a hoodie
PLS, THIS COMMENT
Every time I need a good cry, I just come to this animatic, something about the voice of the music and the expressions of the characters just gets to me EVERY time so yeah, just wanted to send my thanks to you for crafting this
I'm crying so hard but it's still on repeat.
my throat stopped working and there are tears in my eyes and this is the first animatic that’s hurt me like this
thank you i’ll be in pain now
1:45 I SWAEEEER
I lost my mom on Mothers Day a think...3? (I don't WANNA keep count, ok??) Years ago due to overdose and i just- BOI IT HURTS ME TO WATCH THAT PART-
This is the first Dear Evan Hansen animatic that has made me cry. Well done, your really really good at this 😭
This is so beautiful, I can't with the tears
“A truck that will take mommy away”
Look, You can actually pinpoint the second the viewer’s heart breaks
Beautiful! So much feelies that im actually crying. You earned a new sub!
You just had to make the tiny Evan cry
I'm crying so much this is beautiful.. your style is so amazing
I’m going to show this for a school project about grief since the teacher said we needed a video to show and not just the song, so thank you for the animatic :D!
wow, i'm honored! thank you!
LITTLE EVANS PURE EXPRESSIONS WHEN HIS DAD WAS LEAVING- LIKE IM SOBBING??????
I have watched this three times with a few minute breaks inbetween and I cried every time. How you draw expressions is what I dream of doing and you've inspired me to draw people again ;v; Thank you so much for this
Little Evan was so freaking adorable
This song makes me cry hard already, and the animatic just added more to that ahaha😂 (no literally I'm sobbing)you captured the emotions BEAUTIFULLY and honestly I can just say that it makes this song much more sentimental and powerful than it already was. Absolutely gorgeous😭😭💜
This never fails to make me cry. Love it so much.
Y’know, my heart didn’t need the extra emotional damage DX
(Joking aside, this was beautiful and deeply touching. Wonderful job.)
Omg this song and the animatic You have made for it was the first to bring me to tears! I almost cried during a few songs from Hamilton but this one song and this animatic just hit me hard and I literally have tears streaming down my face oml you did so great
IM NOT CRYING YOURE CRYING
This makes me relive my entire life every time I listen to it. My mother’s reality is one that no one should ever EVER have to go through.
i couldn't pay attention to this video bc i was crying
I was crying at this amazing animatic and hungry at the same time. It is not a good day for me GOSH SNDNJS
