goodbye (old vent from october 2023) youtube wont let me have comments on this video give them BACK @cataxelz

cataxelz tw for ummm idk actually. vague mental health stuff? oh and theres like a single bright flash about halfway through the video

youtube keeps disabling comments on this even after reuploading and i genuinely have no clue why so uhh. oh well!

its the long lost origin of the x and stik lore lmao its a very fun thing to play around with even if it does just stem from my unsolved mental issues
so anyways this was left almost entirely finished.. i think i had started it when i wasnt really feeling bad but then working on it put me into a little depressive episode (could have very well been coincidence though) so i ended up leaving it to rot until now. just now i did all the tweening and filled in a couple blank spots with text cause i didnt feel like drawing the frames
im still pretty proud of some of the stuff in here so im glad to finally put it out into the world

cataxelz 2024-10-10 | warning for s-lf h-rm (its a very brief drawing but its there), flashing colors, implied death (then bro is magically not dead), loud audio, and whatever sort of stuff youd expect from a vent. this specifically has themes of longing for the past (in a way) and dissociation

ok tbh this only started out as a vent but very quickly just became something i was working on for fun
i still felt like putting vent in the title though lool

i dont really feel like explaining what this is about just cause im lazy but i will say that the pink character is not representative of an actual person so dont go assuming that

nasty dog (MEME/GIFT)

cataxelz 2024-09-26 | this video is 16+ cause of suggestive lyrics and mildly suggestive imagery and whatnot, and i dont care how tame you think it is, i dont feel comfortable with kids watching this! thanks!

gift for my beautiful wonderful amazing gf she is the pretty pink one i looove herrr SO MUCH!!!
only ogs will remember all the gifts i made for her in 2019 and 2020

i am in my tweening era rn i yearn for frame by frame but sadly i do not have the attention span for it
tweening this was real fun though i tried to replicate the tweening style ive been seeing around... which is pretty much just how i tween but with squashing and stretching involved...

chime (MEME/GIFT FOR @KittydogCrystal) FLASH WARNING?

cataxelz 2024-08-03 | GUESS WHO GOT FIXATED ON KITTYDOG AND REMADE ITS OLD GIFT FOR THEM FROM 2017?!?! yah. this guy. heres the link to that old one btw: youtu.be/9mNn6JgjGVM?si=zcIGZJ4VJNV__rTF
idk what i was doing in 2017. i know i was literally 12 but man... i did not have any standards LMFAO

anyways hi im alive ive just been busy with artfight but now that thats over im gonna be working on so much cool stuff hell yeah (stares at the map parts i need to do)

ty kittydog for being a big ol inspiration of mine for.....EIGHT YEARS?!?!?! my god. i am never getting out of the animation meme community.
but for real though aer animations have been pretty significant in my life for most of those eight years. like idk i have so many memories tied to her animations. i super admire their ability to just like. do shit. just cause its fun. ive been trying to get to that point where i really enjoy doing what i do and kd is a huge inspiration for that
(one thing i will never be good at is writing.. i bet all that barely made sense..)

but yaahhh this was real fun to make. i started it on the 1st and finished it at like midnight the next night
toon boom crashed like three or four times though. it almost never crashes. i dont know why it did that.
also i got too impatient to get this done and totally forgot to change my eyeballed colors to more accurate colors.. not a huge deal but i think all the purples are a bit off lol

人マニア - 重音テト (PART 1) FLASH WARNING

cataxelz 2024-06-07 | WARNING FOR BRIGHT AND FLASHING COLORS!! the audio is also pretty loud and jarring!

i finished this like a month and a half ago then forgot about it

this is a flipnote inspired map so obviously i had to join! flipnote style animations are so fun to do
i dont really know what else to say about this. its just stik being stik. this might be my first animation including slash? (the one in the thumbnail) but tbh i dont remember.

two very short mega-map parts (1f and 58b) [58b is ace attorney]

cataxelz 2024-06-04 | warning for mild blood and guns. does this count as ace attorney spoilers too? its whats shown at the very beginning of 1-4

haaiii so both of these are from like.. aug-oct of last year (my art seriously peaked around that time like wtf happened i cant draw anymore) i just didnt add the backgrounds and shading to the first one until last month so thats why i never posted them

sooo.. part 1 got turned into its own mini map and now theres like 7 different people working on it lmfao. the characters arent mine they belong to @pasta_exists
58 is just split in two and @-TheCrisisNight- did 58a: youtu.be/viy1XX1pZ8Y?si=EGok6SkXrg1CShJ8

the first punch (PARTS 16 + 27) [part 27 is cccc/chonny jash]

cataxelz 2024-05-15 | warning for bright and flashing colors!!!!!

part 27 is supposed to be a sort of reanimation of the ending of the bidding music video (minus darrell. sorry darrell.) which is a super awesome video that you should go watch and listen to: youtu.be/Aqp_5rWQ7hk?si=LJlnS-AgYr3pU8V1
finally have these done... i didnt expect working on parts for my own damn map would be so hard
once i got into them though i had fun, especially with 16. 27 took way longer than it should have (not just cause of procrastination, im just a slow animator sometimes) but i am happy with the results! i absolutely hated how it was turning out at first lol
the weird flashing at the end is supposed to be a transition to the next part in the map it looks a little fucky so i might change it for the final map we'll see
you should join my map btw a good majority of the parts are finished now but backups are still open

fps: 16 was done on 8 fps and 27... well... i did it on 6 fps at first then switched it to 7 fps but it still exported at 6 fps so i just changed the playback speed until it looked right and rendered it at 24 fps... lets just go with 7 fps for simplicity's sake!

u look so good (MEME/collab with 2018 me)

cataxelz 2024-03-20 | 8-28-24 edit: ive been uploading a bunch of art/animations to toyhouse and dating them all by year and i decided to double check when i actually made the old part.. and it was january 2019! pretty close to 2018... (i actually think i might have said 2018 on purpose cause it was close enough and i wanted the gap to look bigger. idk. dont remember.) im gonna keep it as is but i also dont want to straight up lie so im writing this lmfao

i was going through my old videos for inspiration and came across this finished collab part that never got posted (and didnt look totally awful) sooo i went ahead and did the other part! yay!
i was a little lazy and some of it looks kinda weird but eh. good enough for me.

2018 made the background and the character on the right and 2024 me made the character on the left and the two little things between the main dance (for the shaded drawing i tried replicating my old style with x... its interesting.)

btw if youre using toon boom and realize you chose the wrong fps after starting an animation MAKE A NEW PROJECT AND COPY WHAT YOUVE MADE OVER TO IT do NOT keep working on the same project after changing the fps with that deceptive fps changer YOUR ANIMATION WILL RENDER AT THE FPS YOU SET WHEN YOU MADE THE PROJECT AND YOU CANT CHANGE IT (to my knowledge..) i learned this years ago but i still just went through with it thinking ohhh i can just change the speed of the animation in editing... no. its gonna be harder than you think. so instead of doing that i copied every layer one by one into a new project that was actually at 7 fps (which could have been way worse if i had more than 10 layers... also you might be able to copy more than one layer at once i only tried copying the entire thing before just deciding to go one by one)

the soul eclectic (amv? idk) FLASH WARNING

cataxelz 2024-02-03 | FLASH WARNING FOR THE LAST FEW SECONDS the rest of the video is not flashy at all

i started making this when i had only first started listening to chonny jash and now im kinda obsessed with cccc so ummm maybe expect another chonny related animation? idk i think i can tell its one of those really short obsessions 2/21/24 edit: so that was a fucking lie
i probably wouldve used the little cccc!stik designs at the end for the whole video if i started making it more recently so i made up for it by.. making them purple and blue... but now ME just looks like normal stik lol

MEs lipsync looks a lot messier than socks cause i did socks first and i got sick of drawing MEs teeth so just dont look at it too closely

sock is the one on the left (heart) and ME is the one on the right (mind) btw

um. i made this all in one sitting instead of working on map parts and owed art LMAO i didnt mean for that to happen
i think this was supposed to be a vent but i forgot it was in the middle of working on it so idk its just some shit with my sonas. i have accidentally given them lore... i have an unfinished vent from like october (may or may not finish it in the future [edit: i did! youtu.be/FujadlhE-xw]) that follows this same concept so its basically lore at this point. or maybe thats just how vents work..

song: youtube.com/watch?v=AOexcxcP3Ro&pp=ygUJY29qdW0gZGlw
ok storytime. i was listening to spotify dj like a couple months ago and it played this song i had never heard before and i was like "huh this song is kinda weird i like it" but i didnt like make note of it or add it to any playlists or anything... i soon regretted that cause i kept thinking of that song but all i could remember was what the album cover looked like and that the song had a long, distinct name. i didnt get horribly desperate to find it, though i did try. then a few days ago i was watching someones unfinished animations video and there was a small section of a song that sounded really familiar but i couldnt put my finger on it so i looked up the lyric and IT WAS THE FREAKING SONG i was so happy and immediately got obsessed with it and had to listen to the artists entire discography (on spotify.. which is only 10 songs..) AND FINALLY thats how i came across this song (cell). cause this song isnt the original one i was looking for lol that one was moon waltz i just ended up really liking this one too
(i really wanna make an animation with moon waltz as well.. maybe with noone.. im sure its obvious why)

i had been thinking to myself recently how its been a while since ive been super motivated for an animation and it finally happened! i literally made this all yesterday and stayed up too late to finish it even though i didnt need to

i challenged myself to make this all in one day and well.. i succeeded! its definitely not my best work.. the drawings are kinda bad (i think im having a bad drawing moment yknow) and i couldve done more with the tweening but who cares. it gets the point across.
btw its 1 am while im typing this so this is getting posted whenever i wake up

this was about to be an ace attorney video without matt but noo he just had to sneak in there didnt he... it makes more sense with him i think but with my original idea he wasnt in there at all

this is my second attempt making one of these fancy edits on capcut and it is so great to finally be able to make edits like this ive been wanting to since like 2016
i totally couldve done it sooner but i only like making stuff on my laptop and like ive said before i just recently found out capcut is on pc

matt engarde really came back full force sorry
this is a remake of something i started but never finished in 2021 (im expecting to make more of those btw.. i had a lot of really good animation ideas) and heres the old unfinished one if you wanna see it... its not much different: youtu.be/4GQ9VXGChdk

introducing crystal, another main character in the story!
crystal was originally another fnaf related oc made around the same time as red so i thought it would be perfect to redesign her and add her in here
ive done a lot of thinking about how the story actually goes other than just.. red kills guy... and its a bit silly but thats the point and i love them all
i wanted to include some of the other new characters in this too but i think it wouldve been too confusing so i didnt... hopefully theyll show up at some point in the future

final chapter (ARTFIGHT ATTACK)

cataxelz 2023-07-18 | i dont think this needs any content warnings but if it does let me know...

this is an artfight attack on @FitKat (the attack can be found here: artfight.net/attack/5280363.final-chapter-amv)
i got this done over a week ago but didnt get confirmation on all the ratings until yesterday..
looking back i have no idea how i managed to finish this at all, in only 3 days nonetheless. something really got into me earlier this month cause i got so many normal drawing attacks done too

song: youtu.be/509yiHTzTH4 (the music video may be disturbing to some viewers as some footage comes from a horror game)
yes its a fnaf song i was listening to fnaf songs while making pretty much all my artfight attacks and i really liked this one and wanted to animate it

fps: 9 (at least i think it is.. i dont know for sure but i dont feel like double checking. a lot of it is animated on twos and threes though)

cataxelz 2023-06-23 | i think i finally have a video that doesnt need any content warnings? maaaaybe one for bright colors...

i started this all the way back in november and finally managed to finish it.. i got most of it done in february i think but the end was just soooo boring to work on lol
this is pretty huge for me i never would have been able to finish something after leaving it for so long.. but now i can!! i am a changed man

seeing my old versions right after the new one really shows how ive changed with my art.. 2020 was my perfectionism year and 2018.. ehhh.. my art just looked bad back then.

song: youtu.be/TPCaWQQo11A
2018 me got soo motivated by this song. it was crazy...

fps: 8

locked in (ORIGINAL MEME)

cataxelz 2023-06-17 | warnings are at beginning of video but i suppose i can put them here too: blood, flashing colors (theyre more static-like but i think it counts), and non-explicit sexual themes in the lyrics. only the lyrics. no sexual art here!

finally an animation meme after uhh.. almost 11 months! and its not even one that exists already. gah! (do feel free to make one of your own.. that is the point of an original meme after all!)
this took a few weeks to get done but i didnt work on it like. a whole lot during those weeks. i kinda forgot about it for a little bit lol

this character is my new sona that i think i will actually keep this time. ive been drawing them since the beginning of the year and i love them so i think its staying

song: youtu.be/Vk4ZQNTetmo
i called the meme "locked in" instead of "in bondage" for ehh.. obvious reasons..

fps: 9

this edit was supposed to be only mycroft but it turned into alcroft halfway through

cataxelz 2023-06-04 | ehh warning for a gun even though its literally in the thumbnail LOL and he smokes a cigarette i suppose i can warn for that too

i know my audience here doesnt give a shit about these but who cares. i make and post them for myself. ill have an animation out soon for you guys i promise (...i promise)

song: youtu.be/aGSKrC7dGcY (sorry its blocked in russia lol cant do much about that)

i made yet another mtp edit (content warnings in desc)

cataxelz 2023-05-25 | warning for blood, m-rder, fire, aaannd spoilers for mtp

song: youtu.be/r8oJsMBgIgw

cataxelz 2023-05-24 | warning for death, m-rder, fire, explosions.. and i guess mtp spoilers but this is all from some of the first episodes so.. eh?

mega-map (PART 198)

cataxelz 2023-01-23 | content warnings: mild flashing colors, knives, blood, implied m//rder

how many times can axel animate the same husband killing?

soooo if you read my previous descriptions youve probably seen me mention a map part i was working on forever and ever. well. this isnt it! i dropped that part and replaced it with this one! i was actually planning on putting the unfinished part in this video but forgot until i was typing this. whoopsies!

map call: youtu.be/ZTkg2aJPVP8 (accepting backups and theres tons of open parts rn. i would highly suggest joining even just to join the discord. im quite active there!)

monster (PART 6)

cataxelz 2022-11-28 | i put the warning for flashing colors in the video. so dont think i have to put it here. if anything else needs a warning though let me know ty

another part for this map yup yup. i would not have taken the part had i known i would be the last one to finish, holding up the map by like 3 weeks. but i didnt realize there was only one other part to be finished and that they were pretty much done. lol.
other than that i like how this turned out.. i know i was totally lazy with the background cause there literally isnt one but i dont care! im not here to make backgrounds

18... birthday... (animation. mild flashing colors.)

cataxelz 2022-11-14 | i forgor to add the endscreen before i left my laptop 💔💔 @ future me please put it there thanks
edit: it has been done.

i chose the totally wrong fps for this the timing is so bad

dont know what else to say tbh BAHAHA its my birthday thats it im legally an adult now which is weird

song: youtu.be/-mh0vism1c4

fps: 8 (bad idea)

monster (PART 3)

cataxelz 2022-08-31 | content warnings: mild flashing colors, knives, blood, implied m//rder

i finished this a week ago but forgot to upload it oopsies!
i wanted to try one of those fancy map part videos that everyone does and i see why everyone does it now

learned new stuff about my animation program while making this so now i can do fancy lighting stuff ooooooo i still wont shade most of my animations but it isnt so daunting now whenever i do want to!
i still have a map part in progress using a different (and much much more time consuming) shading method that will be out.. eventually.. ive procrastinated so hard on it you guys i dont even like how its turning out very much

map (accepting backups i believe): youtu.be/21nodEkEOas
song: youtu.be/1mjlM_RnsVE

fps: 6

my yearly unfinished animations video is finally here for 2022! yay!
mostly newest to oldest.. some are out of order but not by much
i tried a new thing and added commentary in the corner of the video. very sorry if its too distracting!

umm ive been sitting here working on this for like 3 hours straight i wanna take a break so ill come back and finish typing the description later cause thats gonna take probably another hour or so
until then, none of the audio is mine! if you want to know what a song is please ask in the comments.
EDIT: ITS OVER A MONTH LATER AND I STILL HAVENT DONE THIS HAHAHAA i doubt i ever will at this point SORRY

wheres yo head (MEME)

cataxelz 2022-07-22 | CONTENT WARNING!! (mild) flashing colors, knives, eye contact/staring, a teensy bit of blood and implied m-rder

been a minute since i posted i know i know... artfight has taken up most of my drawing time! this has been in progress for at least a few weeks.. i think i almost forgot about it at one point lol
but here it is!
you all better like these two ive got another thing with them im working on teehee!

original: youtu.be/ajHsjhVMOh8
song: youtu.be/omwXLXeTR4w
(but it is sped up quite a bit for the meme)

fps: 7, but edited in 14 so i could make the glitchy bit look right

number! (MEME) [splatoon]

cataxelz 2022-06-13 | "oh yeah ill just make this meme as a quick filler" i say, knowing full well it will not be quick
hiii i swear i have been animating just... very slowly. im working on a few things that are gonna take a while that i am hoping and praying i will finish ahjsahdasa
i have the worst diss-pair and squid squad brainrot rn ermmm one of the other things im working on is a squid squad animation it looks cool so far but it is a big project for me soooo we'll see

original: youtu.be/8qk0M-5RLxo
song: youtu.be/kNYinUeNBtI

fps: 30

go kitty go meme but i made it in scratch

cataxelz 2022-04-30 | little warning for some bright and not quite flashing colors

tried to animate some other things normally but got upset with myself... ive been spending all my free time on scratch the past couple of days so i got the idea to do this and ended up doing it all in one sitting. oops!

the character here is based off the scratch cat. i use it in my weird projects that you can see on my scratch profile which you should go look at cause i have some cool stuff on there like my color palette and cat generators: https://scratch.mit.edu/users/cataxelz/

here it is on scratch: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/683121037/

(flash warning) improvement meme but its a different song and not actually the meme. i lied

cataxelz 2022-04-27 | i made this like a few weeks ago as a vent and the concept is quite similar to this improvement meme ive been seeing so! why not post it! i spent too much time on it for it to just sit there unlisted!
this goes from 2022 to 2015 and only includes characters that are/were my sonas
song: youtube.com/watch?v=4_k3Y1YFmQQ
i chose this song cause it was like my favorite back in 2016 and this lyric resonated with me now so ya

viper meme (the one from 2015)

cataxelz 2022-04-15 | cw: theres a poorly drawn knife at the very beginning but i think thats it..

i was expecting to make videos with red cat herself not her dead husband...
i put her at the start though cause i didnt know what else to put there and i wanted to draw her lol

umm this took far longer than it needed to and im very glad its done now i can focus on other things! yay!
im sorry the audio sucks ive been using a different method of getting audio and it makes it sound a bit off..
i also went overboard with the blur effect thing and it gives this video a really weird vibe that does not fit at all ummmmmm i dont wanna fix it though

this dudes name is just guy cause its funny. hes literally just some guy. cause thats his name. idk wtf red cats actual name is gonna be.. maybe her name is red and cat is their last name? sure lets go with that

original is deleted so i used this video as reference: youtu.be/HfTHTeBuwhE
song: youtu.be/_hcLjSQW-QA

nooo i typed too much in the description againnnn
fps: 7

lie (map part remake)

cataxelz 2022-04-08 | content warnings for: blood, death/murder, knives, abusive relationship.. i guess.

2015 original: youtu.be/g4Jrz96dqOY (content warnings for this remake apply here too!)
i was gonna have a comparison in this video but it.. didnt look very good and was giving me too much trouble so i gave up on it

i have no idea why i decided to remake this i just thought of it and figured it would be fun. and it was!
i was very proud of the original when i first made it.. 6 years ago? damn.

im probably gonna use these characters more actually. making this gave me a lot of thoughts about them despite how horrible this story is
oh yeah the story... what little 2015 me came up with was that they owned a fnaf style restaurant together and for some reason the one with the mask (her name is literally just red cat) started killing people in the restaurant and the husband didnt like that so she killed him! really compelling story. one important detail is that red cat used to be white but turned red from all the blood. and if that isnt a fucked up thing for a 10 year old to think up idk what is. explains a lot about me now doesnt it.

song: youtu.be/nQoVFdgTSrc

fps: 6
fun fact the original is in 30 fps, iirc, which is... not very suitable for frame by frame
i have a feeling theres some big mistake in here that i didnt notice i will update here if i find one
update: not a huge mistake but ive been trying to draw hands consistently and one of them here is slightly inconsistent. idk how else to explain it
