You’re absolutely right!! I know old comment, but I gotta come in 8 years later to agree haha. There’s a lot of points in the storyboard where you can see a softer, more solemn expression on Pearl. But in the final version, she’s more crying out as she sings. Its clear that the song’s original intention was just going to be a calmer, sad song, but Deedee put SO much agony into it and more power into the singing than they anticipated, that the animation team changed the animations to fit. You can see this starting at 1:18, where Pearl’s expression in the storyboard looks more calm than the final product. Then again at 1:26, where the storyboard’s expression differs greatly from the final product, and the animation with her hand and her head movement was changed to be more dramatic as well. I feel like this is where Deedee started taking the song to more of a power ballad than the team originally intended, and its SO GOOD. You can also see a more calm expression in the storyboard at 1:45-1:48, showing they definitely did not plan for Deedee to just knock it out of the park like she did. Anyways 10/10 comment and Deedee’s singing being 10/10 as always!!!
Bruh I just noticed the subtle symbolism in this scene. Whenever pearl refers to the past she wears her top hat, and whenever she is speaking about her life now she conveniently takes it off. Also there's another pretty obvious display of symbolism at the end where she lets go of the rose to show "rose" is gone, its really good storytelling and you can tell the effort they put in by adding all these small details. this scene perfectly encapsulates the conflict of this episode
I noticed the Rose symbolism but when you point out that Pearl where’s the top hat when talking about her in the past, it made me realised that she put it on because she felt complete back then like how the hat completes her outfit, but when she talks about now, she takes the hat off because she doesn’t feel complete without Rose. Or at least that’s what I picked up
aside from the singing the real heart-breaking thing is throughout the song you can see her face constantly switch from angry, melancholy, lost, pained, depressed, defeated, and thoughtful. so many similar emotions but you can see them indevidually across her face throughout the entire song.
ok when people say this do they mean that they ACTUALLY went thru the whole animation process twice bc of deedee's performance or just that the actual final product was different from the storyboard bc of deedee's performance
@@Charlie______________ isn't that what always happens though? don't they draw the storyboards then get the lines recorded then animate and change expressions and lips to match the lines recorded?
@@floccinaucinihilipilificat6749 As far as I know, this is actually pretty uncommon. The songs are usually scripted out to be molded into the original view, so usually the storyboards don’t need to be changed in terms of tone. However, Deedee decided to make the tone more dramatic and impacting rather than the calm tone that was originally planned, and it made it so much better and the story boarders had to change a few of the expressions.
I’m here after I read a post that they had to change Pearl’s expressions to be more intense since Deedee’s singing went so hard, and it was definitely not wrong.
True! If you go to the crewniverse tumblr, there's a post about the artist bringing the script to life and the storyboard is completely different from what was written. a LOT of work and imagination goes into storyboards!
1:25 and 1:43 if you look closely you will see that in the storyboard, pearl is depicted far more quite and almost calm,. Thanks to Dee Dees BEAUTIFUL voice acting the scenes where reanimated 👏
Why are some people saying Pearl's salty in this?? She not being salty at all! She's just expressing how she wants to move on from Rose, but she can't. She probably needs help with that, and you can't really blame her for needing help. Sure she seemed a bit salty in Story for Steven, but that was more of a petty thing; and she isn't mad at Greg at all. She's just sad Rose fell in love with him, and now she's dead. So please, stop saying she's salty in this song.
Best part of this song: you'd barely have to change the lyrics and it'd be a perfect Broadway ballad. I could imagine Judy Garland singing this. It has that perfect level of melancholy.
Did anybody else notice that Pearl seems more pained and frustrated in the final version compared to the storyboard where she is more sad, confused, and worried.
I actually did that, except on FaceTime because I clicked the answer button instead of the decline button, and I sung it to myself. She didn't say anything during the song, but then when I realized the face time was on for over a minute, I checked back on her and she was all teary faced. Turns out she was a lesbian, hid it from me, and now she's crying because they broke up. It took me all day to become friends with her..
Wow the animation crew really did an amazing job, especially with the camera panning scene. And the fact that the final animation was so close in detail to the original draft just show's how great of a storyboard artist Joe is imo
i like how the difference between the storyboard and final shows how well deedee sang Storyboard's "Now i've got to be there for her son": Caring, like a duty she now holds, any wrong movement can hurt him Final's "Now i've got to be there for her son": Painful, defeated, full of loss, unable to heal. She wishes it were different.
If you look at the bottom (the storyboard) while keeping the top (the final animation) at the corner of your eye, the top seems much smoother than it actually is. Especially when she puts on her hat at 0:07
omg MK must've loved this so much cuz it's like her favorite Gem ever. plus this song was pretty amazing...and emotional but I didn't tear up though. AND THE ANIMATION! EXTRAORDINARY! It was too great, especially when the camera was spinning for Pearl
"Who am I now in this world without her, petty and dull with the nerve to doubt her..." I love Rose and all, but I hope that Rose doesn't become known as some ultimate perfect being that did everything right and couldn't have possibly made a mistake. I understand that Pearl was practically infatuated with her, but I hope this knight complex where without a king they can't function stretches only to Pearl. I wish to see some scenes of flashbacks or maybe VHS recording or something that shows Rose making mistakes that a human would make, hopefully showing Pearl that Rose wasn't as grand of a gem as she thinks she was.
0:36 the background changes to just the buildings 1:25 slight change in her hand and head expressions 1:34 no second clip of the clouds 1:40 huge change in facial expressions
Wah, I really love seeing how timing is decided since the storyboard production. Almost every keyframe is the same as the final result. Love that. My new favorite song. I had very strong feelings about Pearl and Rose relationship, the moment Pearl let everything out was just breathtaking.
I feel for ya. I was not prepared for this song. If I have kids one day I'll make sure they watch this cartoon because it's beautiful and meaningful, and teaches all sorts of things like consent, that it's okay to be queer and so on. All that aside... Yeah, Pearl is my fav gem. I loved this episode.
Could spot so far: Difference Time: 0:35 - 1:00 Detail: in the final version you'll see only Empire City while in the storyboard you see parts of the apartment Difference Time: 1:25 - 1:28 Detail: in the final version pearl stretched her arm to the air while in the storyboard she looked away Difference Time: 1:34 - 1:36 Detail: in the final version you'll see pearl singing while in the storyboard you see a glimpe so the cloud Rose and Pearl Difference Time: 1:43 - 1:46 Detail: in the final version Pearl moved her head with closed eyes matching the music while in the storyboard she took a long stare at the rose
dude i saw the storyboard like "why isnt she screaming shes just sad" then i remembered a comment saying "They had to redraw Pearl's face because of how well Deedee sung."
I was fine, with the shows, that would come into my life now and again, I was fine, cause I knew, that they didn’t really matter until you. I was fine when you came, and it all just seemed like a silly show, like Teen Titans Go, or the Powerpuff girls, after all this time I fell in love with you... It’s over isn’t it? Isn’t it? Isn’t it over? ITS OVER ISNT IT? ISNT IT? ISNT IT OVER? It’s done, and it’s finished, and I loved it but it’s gone. It’s over isnt it why can’t I move on? Uncle Grandpa, Annoying Orange, Problem Solverz, and Out of Jimmy’s Head, My Knight in Me, Two Stupid Dogs and those reboots- WHO AM I NOW IN THIS WORLD WITHOUT YOU? SALTY AND GAY WITH THE NERVE TO ASK MORE, WHAT DOES IT MATTER IT’S ALREADY DONE, NOW I HAVE NOTHING TO WATCH WHEN IM SAD! It’s over isnt it, isn’t it, isn’t it over? It’s over isnt it, isn’t it, isn’t it over? YOURE DONE AND HES LEFT THEM AND HES MOVING ON AWAY... It’s over isnt it, but the fans just can’t move on... It’s over isnt it, why can’t I move on?
y’all notice that after 1:17 the story board and final animation is a bit changed when it comes to pearls expression? deedee magno went so damn hard singing this song that they had to redo it.
WHY AM I NOT CRYING YET I HAVE PLAYED THIS UNTIL I SAW THIS EPISODE AND NOTHING?! Do I have a heart??? 😭 IM CRYING INSIDE BUT IT DOESN'T SHOW OUTSIDE? Why??? *cries inside*
1:42 one frame that I've always loved most in the entire scene. There is so much suppressed vitriol that she knows is bad and pointless (:the entire song) but can't help feeling after all the years.
Wow it's so cool to see how similar the storyboard is to the final. I mean sure it's supposed to be a rough draft of the final but about 90% of the sketches in the storyboard turned out to be key frames in the final, even the angles and facial expressions and the number of shots were kept about the same. This is so inspirational, thanks for sharing! :D
small thing but 1:34 in the storyboard she sees those clouds of her and rose still together, but it was taken out. I feel like that might have added to her sense of not being able to get over it rather than her looking off to the side all angry but yknow I still love everything about it
1:26 check out the differences in pearl's expressions, deedee magno hall really did go so hard on this song that they had to change the animation!!! it's just like charlyne yi's performance of ruby in keystone motel when garnet unfuses :')
the main difference I got, the storyboard edition towards the end makes it look like pearl is defeated and gave up. the fully animated one gives pearl more feeling, making her not only sad, but frustrated. angry, almost. Her expression gives off that "why?!" feeling. I honestly like that more than just pure sadness.
The animators really did an excellent job, not only did they manage to pull off beautiful smooth motion timed with the story board but they also added more emotion to some of pearl's expressions and actions
Wow, I'm really surprised Pearl's broken and pained expressions towards the end weren't originally in the storyboards. They match perfectly with the escalation of the vocals and bring me to tears every time.
I love how DeeDee's recording was so passionate and raw they had to go back and change some of Pearl's facial expressions to really capture the emotion in this song. God, it gives me chills every time...
I was never able to choose my favorite gem... then this episode came. It helped me really see the pain Pearl has. But her loyalty keeps her going with Steven. I LOVE U PEARL ❤
I love watching the little tweaks, like Pearl's eye movements and the different timing! This has to be one of my favorite songs from the series so far!
it really puts how much effort is put into animating into perspective. storyboard, first sketch, seccond sketch, keyframes, full lining, coloring, background, after effects.
Although Rebecca only did a few minor changes from the storyboard, the final animation came out powerful and moving. In my opinion it made a bigger affect on how I feel about the song. One of the thousands of reasons why I want to become an animator Q-Q. I never noticed that until now, thanks Kat! I'm not one to subscribe people but I'm considering a change, starting with you :D.
Because judging people based on appearance iswrong She did have two songs I think in the movie, can’t think of any in future. What was the last one in the original series then?
Everyone admiring Pearls singing while I'm here like, "SHE JUST STOOD ON THE EDGE OF A BALCONY AND DIDNT FALL!! IS ANYONE ELSE NOT SHOCKED!? I FEEL LIKE SHOULDNT BE SURPRISED BUT JFC SHE MOVED PERFECTLY ON IT WITHOUT FALLING OFF A- GOD KNOWS HOW BIG- OF A BUILDING!!" Also, that would be a funny skit to see Pearl falling off mid-song.
You can tell that Deedee recorded it in her own style, and the artists decided to adjust the expression for the emotions she chose Pearl to have.
HELP 777 LIKES AND NO COMMENTS??
also, ik this was made like 7 years ago but that is very true, specially in this part: 1:25
You can see it 😂

You can also see a more calm expression in the storyboard at 1:45-1:48, showing they definitely did not plan for Deedee to just knock it out of the park like she did.
Anyways 10/10 comment and Deedee’s singing being 10/10 as always!!!
THIS SCENE WAS ANIMATED SO WELL THAT I WANTED TO CRY
SAME
Right??? 180° takes are super hard to do. I can't even imagine 360°'s!
And she moved at the same time :0
And it had sooooooo many frames
+Northflower OwO I think Mkat did some editing to the animatic to sync it up
actually, it was the same
One of the best songs in the show so far
Every song in this episode I've been singing since they aired especially the mr.greg scene when the get to le hotel
all the good saongs are about the gems being gay.
+Dragogirl 10 They don't have gender.
+0lson They use female pronouns, therefore their genders are all female. (As confirmed by Rebecca Sugar herself.) The gems are sexless, no genderless.
+Fαℓℓιиg Uρ ianjq says it's still very possible for a gem that was formed female to take on a male form, though

Or at least that’s what I picked up
ITS OVER, WHY CANT I STOP CRYING
nobody can't stop cring after this
+JayBlue Dragon 😢😢😂😂
I can't stop what I didn't start ;)
*didn't cry*
No offense, but do other fans of this show cry so much? I can't... I just don't understand

why was she surprised that she was heard
she wasnt exactly trying to be quiet
ikr
maybe she thinks humans are completely deaf when they're sleeping
Well She did watch steven while he was sleeping, and he didn't wake up...

+Nathan Jarrett eh
Am I the only one that thinks Pearl looks awesome in a tuxedo?
No
I REALLY hope her next outfit will look like a tuxedo
No
I adore Pearl in any outfit, but that tuxedo was truly "a perfect fit" :D ♡
And there's her Sardonyx part.
I like this more than Stronger Than You tbh.
Hm....soinds about right
Undertale fans will probably make a parody of it and claim it as their own lol. or maybe some other new game that would be overrated
+John Gonzales Most likely.
they both are about gay gems.

1:26 The fact that they had to reanimate this part bcs of how powerful Deedee’s voice was still amazes me
ok when people say this do they mean that they ACTUALLY went thru the whole animation process twice bc of deedee's performance or just that the actual final product was different from the storyboard bc of deedee's performance

1:08 is surprisingly fluent for a storyboard
Since it was a very dynamic movement, they need to make sure there's more key frames so it's easier to animate from the storyboards.
That one Dude 1:08
So is 0:33-0:35
I kept rewatching that part because of that
Bri The Mad Mistress I think it's actually an animatic
It's so incredible to see how a simple idea can transform into something so beautiful
What simple idea...the story...the character...what? Cuz ik those aren't simple. We need more info here.
+Mini-E the storyboard vs how smooth the final is
+Bea Stewart Well...that makes a lot of sense..XD im stupid

1:25 and 1:43 if you look closely you will see that in the storyboard, pearl is depicted far more quite and almost calm,. Thanks to Dee Dees BEAUTIFUL voice acting the scenes where reanimated 👏
Did they just change the storyboard?
@@justahobo yes, because of the va singing her heart out beautifully
This song brings tears to my eyes every time 😢
Same.
same
I love your account name by the way.
I also agree!
Peri what do ya think about your tablet ;)
Dominick Perez It's all that I am.
Gawdamit, Rebecca Sugar! Why do you thirst for tears?
cuz tears are salty and Rebecca feeds that to Pearl so dats why Pearl is always salty af
+love Luci Lol
because she feeds on sadness...
But she needs something to get the tears from
hence SU
didn't she say "i like crying. crying is funny" or something along those line in an interview once?
+Dominick Perez thats why rose had healing TEARS
Why are some people saying Pearl's salty in this?? She not being salty at all! She's just expressing how she wants to move on from Rose, but she can't. She probably needs help with that, and you can't really blame her for needing help. Sure she seemed a bit salty in Story for Steven, but that was more of a petty thing; and she isn't mad at Greg at all. She's just sad Rose fell in love with him, and now she's dead. So please, stop saying she's salty in this song.
Best part of this song: you'd barely have to change the lyrics and it'd be a perfect Broadway ballad. I could imagine Judy Garland singing this. It has that perfect level of melancholy.
I was thinking the same thing! Glad i'm not the only one!
Pearl's VA was on broadway anyways >.< ..
"reinvention" she says as she looks at a rose. That was a pretty big hint!
Did anybody else notice that Pearl seems more pained and frustrated in the final version compared to the storyboard where she is more sad, confused, and worried.
The line where Pearl says "Now I've got to be there for her son"
I'm really glad that they didn't go with the storyboard facial expression.
Why?
is everybody just ignoring the fact that pearl could have fallen off of the balcony
she can levitate
puppyhowler or she had just has good placing in feet and stuff
Kenneth Castro of coarse, she has excellent balance, she can stand on her spear if she wanted too
nobody is ignoring the fact , thats literally what everyone talks about
Imagine the people below just watching from above like "she's gonna fall, she's gonna-
HOLY SHIT SHE JUST DID A FUCKING BACK FLIP ON THE RAILING!"
Fun fact: the way she sweeps the glass with her feet is actually a balance strategy gymnasts use on balance beams
Finally Pearl got a Solo!
Heck yea! Up-Top!
Strong in the Real Way.
Sanicasaurus That song was also sang with Steven
Ed Linares It was still a solo for half of the song.
+Sanicasaurus A solo is when somebody sings the song all alone.
note to self: don't sing this song while in a skype call with a friend who just went through a tough break up
I can only imagine. o.0
Oopsie daisies
unless they love Steven universe and their favorite character is pearl
then maybe
probably not tho
I actually did that, except on FaceTime because I clicked the answer button instead of the decline button, and I sung it to myself.

Dee Dee literally killed me with this song
Me too....
Literally? So you're dead?
1:26 BRO MAGNO HIT IT SO HARD THEY CHANGED THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
I like the changes there were more noticeable towards the end, Pearl looking more distressed to match the pain in her voice
1:44 i like how you can tell deedee went so hard on the vocals they had to change pearls expressions
i like how the difference between the storyboard and final shows how well deedee sang
Storyboard's "Now i've got to be there for her son": Caring, like a duty she now holds, any wrong movement can hurt him
Final's "Now i've got to be there for her son": Painful, defeated, full of loss, unable to heal. She wishes it were different.

OMG TRUE... how
It’s been a while since this show ended, and I am eternally greatful for this show for having songs like this.
Something about the way she sang "its over and she's gone!" at the end gave me goosebumps
Did u know?
They had to reanimate this scene because deede sang with SUCH powerful emotion, they had to change it at 1:17 . See the difference ?
“War and glory, reinvention..”
*WOW, THAT HAS A WHOLE NEW MEANING*
this song gave me a feels trip ;w;
Me too

WOW I NEVER THOUGHT THE SHOW WOULD PROGRESS FROM COOKIE ICE CREAMS TO THIS.
omg MK must've loved this so much cuz it's like her favorite Gem ever. plus this song was pretty amazing...and emotional but I didn't tear up though. AND THE ANIMATION! EXTRAORDINARY! It was too great, especially when the camera was spinning for Pearl
I teared in the next one, it just was a tear fest
+aleix1203 I thought "Both Of You" was eh...I didn't really care for that one too much
it took steven 21 seconds of pearl dance moves to get to the other side of the bed
he couldnt move because of them SICK DANCES
As he should tbh
If someone asks, sometimes final animation differs from the storyboard because of the voice acting :) it's clear two times in this video.
I see why Pearl is your favourite
I'm litterally adicted to this song
"Who am I now in this world without her, petty and dull with the nerve to doubt her..." I love Rose and all, but I hope that Rose doesn't become known as some ultimate perfect being that did everything right and couldn't have possibly made a mistake. I understand that Pearl was practically infatuated with her, but I hope this knight complex where without a king they can't function stretches only to Pearl. I wish to see some scenes of flashbacks or maybe VHS recording or something that shows Rose making mistakes that a human would make, hopefully showing Pearl that Rose wasn't as grand of a gem as she thinks she was.
The fact that DeeDee sang this with so much emotion that they needed to change the animation blows my mind.
0:36 the background changes to just the buildings
1:25 slight change in her hand and head expressions
1:34 no second clip of the clouds
1:40 huge change in facial expressions
the first solo for Pearl and it's about Rose
+SomethingCleverIGuess nope. she sung about sugilite
Steven sung "strpng in the Real Way" as well, though. Even though they didn't sing together it technically wasn't a solo.
+byperbam k whatever floats your boat.
Booper McBunderSnazzle Steven sung that song with her, so it's not a solo
Davi Aiex Heleno gotchu fam
i love how you can see so much more emotion for the facial expressions in the final aaaa this is amazing, very beautiful !!
Wah, I really love seeing how timing is decided since the storyboard production. Almost every keyframe is the same as the final result. Love that.
My new favorite song. I had very strong feelings about Pearl and Rose relationship, the moment Pearl let everything out was just breathtaking.
I feel for ya. I was not prepared for this song. If I have kids one day I'll make sure they watch this cartoon because it's beautiful and meaningful, and teaches all sorts of things like consent, that it's okay to be queer and so on.
All that aside... Yeah, Pearl is my fav gem. I loved this episode.
Could spot so far:
Difference Time: 0:35 - 1:00
Detail: in the final version you'll see only Empire City while in the storyboard you see parts of the apartment
Difference Time: 1:25 - 1:28
Detail: in the final version pearl stretched her arm to the air while in the storyboard she looked away
Difference Time: 1:34 - 1:36
Detail: in the final version you'll see pearl singing while in the storyboard you see a glimpe so the cloud Rose and Pearl
Difference Time: 1:43 - 1:46
Detail: in the final version Pearl moved her head with closed eyes matching the music while in the storyboard she took a long stare at the rose

It’s over isnt it, isn’t it, isn’t it over? It’s over isnt it, isn’t it, isn’t it over?
YOURE DONE AND HES LEFT THEM AND HES MOVING ON AWAY...
It’s over isnt it, but the fans just can’t move on... It’s over isnt it, why can’t I move on?
Well I have two just yeet this into saved thank you
y’all notice that after 1:17 the story board and final animation is a bit changed when it comes to pearls expression? deedee magno went so damn hard singing this song that they had to redo it.
From Rapping to Opera, Well Done Deedee Magno Hall!
WHY AM I NOT CRYING YET I HAVE PLAYED THIS UNTIL I SAW THIS EPISODE AND NOTHING?! Do I have a heart??? 😭 IM CRYING INSIDE BUT IT DOESN'T SHOW OUTSIDE? Why??? *cries inside*
Nvm I cried NOW.......
+The Cutie it was beautiful....
1:42 one frame that I've always loved most in the entire scene. There is so much suppressed vitriol that she knows is bad and pointless (:the entire song) but can't help feeling after all the years.
OK WOW I DIDNT EXPECT THIS VIDEO TO MAKE ME CRY
IM MENTALLY ATTRACTED TO THIS SHOW
(Oh god Pearl I'm so sorry ;^;)
Wow it's so cool to see how similar the storyboard is to the final. I mean sure it's supposed to be a rough draft of the final but about 90% of the sketches in the storyboard turned out to be key frames in the final, even the angles and facial expressions and the number of shots were kept about the same. This is so inspirational, thanks for sharing! :D
small thing but 1:34 in the storyboard she sees those clouds of her and rose still together, but it was taken out. I feel like that might have added to her sense of not being able to get over it rather than her looking off to the side all angry but yknow I still love everything about it
MY HEART HAS STOPPED BEATING THIS IS SO CUTE AND HEART WRENCHING
1:26 check out the differences in pearl's expressions, deedee magno hall really did go so hard on this song that they had to change the animation!!! it's just like charlyne yi's performance of ruby in keystone motel when garnet unfuses :')
1:01 - 1:28 my favorite part.. Anyone else? She sings so frickin' good!!! And I just.. Oh my I'm gonna faint how good it's animated..
If you notice, the storyboard has more quiet expressions in comparision with the actual episode and song
This is pretty notorious at 1:16
the main difference I got, the storyboard edition towards the end makes it look like pearl is defeated and gave up. the fully animated one gives pearl more feeling, making her not only sad, but frustrated. angry, almost. Her expression gives off that "why?!" feeling.
I honestly like that more than just pure sadness.
I'm not crying ur crying don't look at me
How can you cry? I cant cry easily like i used to...HELP ME!
Oh c'mon P, you know I can't take it when you cry like that! 😢
WAS THAT COMMENT R E A L L Y NESCESSARY
I'M NOT CRYING! I JUST CAUGHT SOMETHING IN MY EYE.
TEARS!!
0:22 Storyboard Steven's face
'_'
Wonder if Pearl ACCIDENTLY fall off that thin glass
1:25 deedee sings so hard that the crweniverse had to change the animation kkkk
The animators really did an excellent job, not only did they manage to pull off beautiful smooth motion timed with the story board but they also added more emotion to some of pearl's expressions and actions
Wow, I'm really surprised Pearl's broken and pained expressions towards the end weren't originally in the storyboards. They match perfectly with the escalation of the vocals and bring me to tears every time.
I love how DeeDee's recording was so passionate and raw they had to go back and change some of Pearl's facial expressions to really capture the emotion in this song.
God, it gives me chills every time...
I love how she sang it so dramatically that they changed her expression to be even sadder XD
Pearl's facial expressions are key in this scene! It's amazing how they put everything together to make it feel so sad and dramatic
This show just keeps getting better every time... The story, the characters and their development, the background art, the animation, the music... 💗
I was never able to choose my favorite gem... then this episode came. It helped me really see the pain Pearl has. But her loyalty keeps her going with Steven. I LOVE U PEARL ❤
This song was beautiful, and bless the composer's soul. :,)
Deedee magno hall went so hard on singing It’s Over Isn’t It that they changed the animation to look more intense. Amazing
I love watching the little tweaks, like Pearl's eye movements and the different timing! This has to be one of my favorite songs from the series so far!
and she loved you and shes GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE
it really puts how much effort is put into animating into perspective.
storyboard, first sketch, seccond sketch, keyframes, full lining, coloring, background, after effects.
even after so long time I still cry in this song...
This is one of my favorite songs from this show. Awesome job Mkatwood!
With the Future info this song hits different now
Although Rebecca only did a few minor changes from the storyboard, the final animation came out powerful and moving. In my opinion it made a bigger affect on how I feel about the song. One of the thousands of reasons why I want to become an animator Q-Q.
I never noticed that until now, thanks Kat! I'm not one to subscribe people but I'm considering a change, starting with you :D.
I just realised this is pearls last song in the series..
No it wasnt
Because judging people based on appearance iswrong
She did have two songs I think in the movie, can’t think of any in future. What was the last one in the original series then?
You did an awesome job editing it to make the two sync together!
0:36 i bet everyone loves this part.
*In fact, i do too.*
It's such a great art! The buildings, the lights, everything! I analyzed this song a few days ago and I can't get over it.
Everyone admiring Pearls singing while I'm here like, "SHE JUST STOOD ON THE EDGE OF A BALCONY AND DIDNT FALL!! IS ANYONE ELSE NOT SHOCKED!? I FEEL LIKE SHOULDNT BE SURPRISED BUT JFC SHE MOVED PERFECTLY ON IT WITHOUT FALLING OFF A- GOD KNOWS HOW BIG- OF A BUILDING!!"
Also, that would be a funny skit to see Pearl falling off mid-song.
To the storyboarders and animators...
PEARL POINTS!!!
YOU DONT KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO PUT IT SIDE BY SIDE... THANK YOU SO MUCH!
THE MAJOR DIFFERENCE IS HOW THE ROSE FALLS
bruh fO' REAL?
I like how you can tell they made a couple little changes at some points, just goes to show that creators who care are always tweaking things!
