    (Late) Happy Holidays and (late) Happy New Year! 😅
    This video was long overdue and I'm glad it's finally out! Original videos are always a challenge for me, especially when it comes to pacing and all that. I initially planned it for early to mid January but unfortunately my computer broke for about a week while working on it and I lost around 3 minutes of animation that I had to remake from scratch, which set me back quite a bit. Either way, I hope it was worth the wait!

    Not many times do you see a character in horror who actually fights back with a gun.

  • @cancop
    @cancop Рік тому +613

    You can tell an animation is good when you find yourself watching it at 5am before it's light outside and it gives off a primordial creep factor that makes you keep only the bottom half of the video on your screen as you prepare to dive into the safer trenches of the comments section.

    With the wide angles, the windows in shot, you expect something to pop up, especially when he lowers his rifle. when NOTHING happens, the tension is maintained in a bone-chilling air until the music starts. You breathe a sigh of relief. THEN, IT POPS UP. You never get a good look at it. Fucking art.

    11:13 this scene. the way it walks is so surreal and disturbing, and the added shadow of snow that covers it is really nice. the added detail of him having to rack a bullet since he never did that after his first shot is great.
    13:13 *THIS SCENE.* the near silence, the final reveal of the monster's sheer size, the silhouettes, his horrified face, it's all so good

    No matter how far off this was from winter, it's still a wonderful SFM video, the cinematography, the ambient sounds, the atmosphere and the animation itself! i loved how has a different model for being covered in snow, and the guy's expressions and mannerisms are so well communicated, i feel like if you used more hi-res detailed models and textures, this could passs off as realistic.

  • @amel888

    This was SO worth the wait and then some! I love winter stories and this one.. is just so perfect. It's so clear how good you've gotten at animating, I'm so impressed, this was an amazing watch. My theorist brain is going with this. Did he kill the guy in the blue coat? Hence why the note asks if he's been a good boy? So seeing him again isn't just seeing him as a monster but him facing the living representation of his guilt and what he'd done? That's the vibes I got. The continuous shots to the axe and the gun he has, the fact that one of the monsters looks like another person. it all radiates vibes that our protagonist did something

He kept deformed midgets (elves) chained up in a warehouse to make his presents. The climax of the story was a kid waking up to Santa breaking his front door open with a crowbar and rushing into his living room. The punchline was Santa pelting the kid square in the face with a small but heavy present, shouting “Merry Christmas!!” and running back outside to screech into the night on a Harley

    I have a theory!
    I think the main character is a murderer!
    When that piece of paper said, “Have you been a good boy?” It gave us a shot of the axe,
    I believe that he killed someone with the axe! He even looked at the axe, showing us he knows what it’s talking about!
    And the man with half his face cute off is most likely the ghost of the guy he killed!
    So when that tall thing touched our main character, the guy fell down, maybe symbolizing his soul is at piece because his killer has been caught!
    That’s my theory anyway!
