It took me three rewatches to realize the coat they were wearing for most of the animation was the dead captain’s coat.. oh god, the level of character in that single realization :0

My initial thought was “Oh good, finally an animatic for Ship in a Bottle” but now I’m thinking “I’m glad I already knew the song so it couldn’t distract from the gorgeous visuals”

"I killed the monster that slaughtered all of my friends and family, and now I'm BECOMING IT."

The most amazing detail about this animatic is when Delta’s running towards Marzia, she yelled her name. You can’t hear it, but you can see her mouth it. It’s amazing

This is mind-blowing!! The story, the slow transition of Marzia from human to ocean creature, the colour choice of all grey except for the teal, the light and darkness in every shot, the designs, everything about this is absolutely stunning!! Your story with your pirates is a huge inspiration to me. Its a phenomenal piece of work. This is a masterpiece.

The use of blurring certain areas to give a real sense of depth is just another thing you excel at. Fantastic work, as always!

Does anyone else want to see this turned into an animated series or just me

I encountered this by accident and I'm in LOVE with this premise of "character kills monster, gets cursed to become it" and just...the whole story, it's amazing! Not just that but the style of art is STUNNING to look at

I love how her hair transitioned and turned shorter and shorter, as if she always chopped the teal ends off even when she knows it doesn't make a difference.

I love this. A lot of OC animatics can be pretty hard - often downright impossible - to follow without context, but this one tells a complete story that I had no trouble keeping up with. Everything I need to know in order to follow what's happening is apparent purely from the visuals, and the narrative beats themselves read very clearly.

4:30 honestly gave me chills, it’s one probably the best parts in my opinion- but the animatic itself is A M A Z I N G

This was probably a unintentional detail but

I'm honestly in shock that I was able to watch this for free. This seems like a storyboard to a whole movie, the pacing, characters, just everything! The art and story is so incredibly engaging it didn't even feel like five minutes, yet it also felt like an hour (in a good way)! Phenomenal work, can't believe I stumbled upon such a masterpiece at 4am on my recommended.

I love how throughout the animatic mariza gains more and more sharp teeth, the point where at the final scream all her teeth are sharp!

4:01 I'm noticing here that for a split moment, along with the moon goddess, there are 3 other figures. I think the girl here became some kind of god- specifically of water, because in that one frame the 3 others seem to represent air, fire, and earth. The goddess may be their guardian or superior

3:38 love how this implies that the news about the sea god dying spread rapidly, as Mariza walks by and probably hears about the sea god that she killed, died. The ones who've heard the news having furrowed brows to indicate their anger/sadness showing how important that god was to them
