I love the emotions you've depicted in this. Especially, by including a lot of Anastasia's emotional response. Having not had the pleasure to see the musical (only hear the soundtracks), I always felt that Anastasia's "see their blood" line felt almost gratuitous. In your animatic, I love how we see Anastasia's horrified reaction to Gleb's reaffirmation that what his father did was a "proud and vital task" despite her putting this brutal image in his mind. Also, your camera angles are just gorgeous. Plus, love the artistic license of having the windows blow open and her hair falling out perfectly... This has really inspired me into trying to draw my own storyboards! (At the very least, I've subscribed to your channel now!) :D
Gleb's hatred is understandable. Nikolai II and Alexandra Feodorovna had committed many crimes against the Russian people (father and mother of Anya). But their children are not to blame. That caused his inner struggle.
I don’t know if it was intentional but at 1:37 he points the gun to his head while saying: “he does what’s necessary.” (I know he’s referring to following orders but hear me out). Gleb’s father couldn’t live with what he did so he may have killed himself which is also why the mother says: “he died of shame.” (This is totally a theory don’t take my word for it that’s just what I thought in my head😭😭)
SAME, when I first listened to it I just had to rewind and listen to that last bit over and over again! Thank you so much, I'm glad you like the animatic!
I love many many animations of this scene but THIS is the one that conveys the same amount of emotion, especially Anastasia's. this is so beautifully intense
This is absolutely stunning!!! Just everything about it. I've seen a few of these Neva Flows reprise animatics and this one is amazing at showing the emotion and the confliction in Gleb and the profound sorrow but still regal Anastasia. I absolutely love it! Seriously, just stunning.
This is fantastic! It flows so well and I can imagine all of the action and shots finished so easily with what you show here! Good emotion, shot comp and syncing to the song too
WOW!! I didn't expect this to be this good, holy shit! I love it! I love how you use the windows and how they move around in a way that makes sense but its not excessive! The expressions, the imagery in the reflections too, damn! I really like this! Congratulations!
this is so good!!! I keep rewatching it and get chills !!! I hadn't heard of the musical before this........................ time to go down a google rabbithole haha
This is by far the best animatic I've seen of this scene. It may not be the most polished but it just really captures the intensity and melodrama of the scene while also just being just beautifully staged. Fantastic job!
wait this was actually so good! your style is so dynamic and the way you choreographed it (idk if that’s the right word but) really matched what the song portrays, amazing work!
Wait a minute…did you take the two best performances available on UA-cam for 2:17 and glue them together. I didn’t notice at first that is really smart I think that’s why it hit so hard
this is the best animatic for this song i've seen so far omg. it all works so well. maybe the art could use some more polishing, but this still is amazing
I never tire of this scene being animated! Do you have any ideas for future projects? I always thought “Someday” from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame musical would work for young Anastasia and Gleb.
If there ever is a remake of the animated classic, it will still be in 2d and have a story that is a combination of the original story and the musical’s story and is an alternate history with a different ending. The corrupt Communist government, which will be led by an evil KGB esque leader or group, will temporarily form an alliance with Rasputin to assassinate Anastasia since her survival will doom their entire empire and start a revolution. This scene will play out after a big battle between the French police or army vs the Russian communist spies or soldiers as Anastasia defeats Rasputin and lets the leader of the kgb fall to his death. She is injured, but gets away safely when confronted by Gleb and the scene happens. He spares her, but returns back to Russia to announce his failure and be killed for his insubordination. While the public is still confused on whether the princess is alive or not, the people of Russia are given hope and a revolution breaks out against the corrupt KGB party. Ana and her love stay in France, in secret, and that’s the end of the new 2d film. What do you guys think?
![[Good Omens] They're Only Human COMPLETE Animatic](/img/n.gif)
As a russian person and a big fan of Don Bluth's anastasia who hasn't even seen the whole musical, I find this absolutely breathtaking ❤
The musical is amazing! You should watch it. I really recommend

The shadows at 2:09 man it was breath taking. It basically shows how her father and gleb’s dad in their shadows
I always get goosebumps from this song and the beautiful composition of this masterpiece shook me so wonderfully
SAME, when I first listened to it I just had to rewind and listen to that last bit over and over again! Thank you so much, I'm glad you like the animatic!
Omg this is so good. I love how she steps toward him and he backs away. And how her hair goes down. And THE SHADOWS at 2:09. Amazing
I love many many animations of this scene but THIS is the one that conveys the same amount of emotion, especially Anastasia's. this is so beautifully intense
That's amazing, they're so expressive, I never saw Anastasia but I can understand what's happening just by how the characters are reacting
I've only just found this 2 years later but the expressions, the lighting, THE COMPOSITION is like a breath of fresh air. this is so cool!!
This is absolutely stunning!!! Just everything about it. I've seen a few of these Neva Flows reprise animatics and this one is amazing at showing the emotion and the confliction in Gleb and the profound sorrow but still regal Anastasia. I absolutely love it!

I never tire of this scene being animated! Do you have any ideas for future projects? I always thought “Someday” from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame musical would work for young Anastasia and Gleb.
I don’t remember this part in the Disney movie D:
It’s in the musical version. 10/10 would recommend

Dude, this is such a great idea!
Daddy issues the musical
Nah but frrrr
Is it wrong to feel bad for this guy? He has the world’s worst backstory
Fr! He’s my fav character
To be fair he didn’t *do* anything bad in the whole musical
