- Thank you to everyone who has supported me during my progress of this video! This is my first animatic ever so the love is very much appreciated!!!
--------------
I’ll say this here for those who don’t know, these are NOT my characters. These are my redesigns of the characters written by Arnold Lobel, author of the childhood classic book series “Frog and Toad”. The musical “A Year with Frog and Toad” was written by Robert and Willie Reale. Adrianne Lobel, the daughter of Arnold Lobel, commissioned the musical (fun little fact). I do not claim to own these characters or the songs shown in my videos.
--------------
Looking back I wish I made an animatic of the first song from the soundtrack and went from there, since I do plan to create more Frog and Toad content and wish to continue the story in my style. However, I am glad I started with this song because I was able to introduce more characters and start conversations amongst the audience. I hope I left a good impression even with such an infuriating song 😂😂😂
Hope you all want to see more!

Thank you all and have a lovely day! 🏳️🌈
I want to share a experience because I feel like I have a lot in common with toad. Since this art is going to be interpreted differently by each person, how I took this is seeing myself as toad. I was always a big person growing up and I had a couple experiences like this and I was not really pleasant to be around because I was pretty angry or sad a lot of the time. The specific experience that I’m thinking of is when I was dropped in a river during a cult(was forced to be in it) hiking trip. In the cult I was in, they have a ritual of making a huge hike and at the end people carry you across the river. I was a young tween at the time, and I was paired with people who could not carry me. They dropped me in the river and everyone was staring at me. They were all watching around the river. This reminds me of that experience.
Having grown up in similar circumstances, take comfort in knowing that was no accident. You were used by the adults as a scapegoat to boost the egos of the in-group and deepen their emotional connection to the cult in accordance with the BITE model of cult development and identity. I'm sorry it happened because it wasn't fair, but if you thought it was intentional, you were absolutely correct. I hope you're free and doing better now
Religious cults are evil and horrible.
HE LOOKS ADORABLE IN A BATHING SUIT YOU MONSTERS
I love how mouses ears progressively get bigger
lmao i didnt even notice
1:48 one of my favorite parts is just that little wiggle turtle does here
I'm gonna stomp on that turtle 🐢
Wait for me!
This song is certainly a bit infuriating. It seems like the musical made a much bigger deal out of Toad’s insecurities than the book did. I still have a copy of the books, so I reread the chapter, “Swim,” this song is based on, and I have to say, it seems way less like bullying in the book. Toad acts pretty indifferent to the animals laughing at him, and all he really says after Frog tells him he does look kind of funny is “Of course I do!” Paired with an illustration of him walking away with his chin up. So it’s obvious the original writer wanted to make a lesson out of not being insecure about your body, or not letting people take away your dignity, something like that. But the musical version makes it seem a lot worse, especially considering how almost all the lyrics are Turtle, Mouse, and Lizard making fun of Toad and making a huge spectacle out of it, meanwhile Toad is acting a lot more insecure/embarrassed about it than he does in the books. In fact, in the book, he only stays in the water for a minute or two before giving in, and the animals waiting for him to come out don’t say anything mean (although they’re still being jerks by not respecting his privacy). Overall, IMO, the musical just makes this whole scene seem a lot like they’re trying to make a joke out of bullying. But I don’t think it was intentional. In the actual productions I’ve seen on UA-cam, Toad saying “I know” At the end seems more like he’s laughing at himself as well. So it’s more like bad writing than anything if you ask me.
I dont think it was a case of bad writing or misreading of the original. I think it can be the case that maybe the show writers felt as a family musical there needs to be a tiniest bit of conflict to be a little bit more interesting. So maybe they consciously added the insecure edge and added antagonism to give the other creatures around them a bit more personality as in the children's books everybody is rather flat and uniformly simple, which works fine for a very short story but for a full length stage musical I definitely see the problem.
@@avosmash2121 that makes sense too! I still don’t think they did the best job of it though, because a lot of people on here and on the TikToks were saying it really feels like bullying. And the fact there’s no karma later for the characters being jerks is just annoying. Maybe there is later in the musical, but I doubt it, as it’s not in the original book.
@@chickennuggetpaw yes I feel like the ones sorta bullying him should have had karma or felt bad after how they made Toad feel in this.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE PART ONE AND IT WAS SO WORTH IT!!
Woah this got dark! Almost makes frog agreeing at the end kinda sad! 😢
I played Turtle in my theater’s production of A Year With Frog and Toad, and let me tell you, this brought back some serious nostalgia. Our hats even look similar!
