The first few frames are cut from ThatOtterThing's Part 13: youtu.be/mCto8CBuKPc
Script for this part: The patrol looking for the blockage in the stream feeding the lake seen confronted by the Beavers at the dam. The cats fight with the beavers, but Rippletail is killed, much to Petalfur’s dismay.
This is part of The Fourth Apprentice where everybody goes to the dam to try to get the dried-up river flowing again! Poor Rippletail. He ded. Cats from left to right at the beginning are Tigerheart, Toadfoot, Lionblaze, Dovepaw, Petalfur, Rippletail, Sedgewhisker, and Whitetail.
Notes For Fluffylovey: I exported my part with an extra 8 frames at the beginning so that you have room to put Otter's part on top and not mess up the frame number. That's why I put a frame counter at the bottom of the YouTube version, so that you can use it to match up the audio when you're editing :) So the start of my part 14 when matched with the map call audio should start on frame 8 of my sendspace file :D I just don't want the audio to be offset and make it not match up nicely haha! :) Feel free to ask questions, or if you need me to re-export something let me know! The Sendspace link doesn't have Otter's part on top of it, I just added it to the YouTube version cause it looks cool!

It's such a great story of hope and good pure joy. If you want to hear more about why I love this musical so much, check out my video essay I did on the subject: youtu.be/OTWwG9rfEQ0
When I first started I had no idea that I would be able to see it live! I can't wait until next month when I'm flying to see it (twice!) in London!! If you are nearby London in the next few months definitely go!!
As far as time spent goes, I did around a third of it nonstop over 10 weeks, (thank you New Musical Obsession, lol) and then the other 2/3rds I finished over the rest of the year while working on other projects at the same time. It's actually been 90% done for about 4 months but I just needed to sit down and finish the last bit! It took many many hours which I didn’t keep track of, but I tend to average around 10-15 hours per second (@12fps) so I would guess maybe 400+ hours?
Programs used: Procreate for all the drawing Photoshop for file management After Effects for the bulk of the editing/comping and background tweening Premiere for editing the reference footage and final YT video.Lantern Leaves - Fallen/Holly AU [PART 19]Solstrike062022-11-06 | My part for this MAProject! youtu.be/oYpaMEfpKFM
I thought this idea was so creative! Having the Fallen Leaves tunnels being an old abandoned mineshaft really added to the unsettling and lonely vibe, I feel. Plus I love Hadestown so how could I resist! Orpheus' voice fits so well for Fallen. :*(
This part took me roughly 45 hours over the course of 1 month (but I was on vacation for 10 of those days so reeaally it was about 2.5 weeks :) )
I used Procreate for all the drawing, Photoshop for file management, and After Effects for the editing/lighting and tweening. Plus Premiere for editing the YT video.Hollyfawn - [Part 83] [Collab! with @lunemoths ]Solstrike062022-10-18 | My second part for this MAProject! youtu.be/a5FF7MV7Ydk
I was a backup in Hollyfawn so I picked up a collab part for the end credits scene! Lunemoths started initially on the BG and I finished it up, and did the editing. Go check them out!
Collab parts: Character animation, character colors, and BG sketch/planning: by @lunemoths Finished background, pink highlights, and editing: by me @Solstrike06
This was a really fun collab! Lunemoths had already started on a solid sketch for the BG so it was great to pick it up. Altogether this part took me about 11hs to paint the BG and about an hour to do the pink shading and camera edits.
I painted the BG on Procreate, and did the highlights and camera tweening in After Effects.Wriggle - STRAY [Part 16]Solstrike062022-09-20 | My part for this MAP! youtu.be/Y-dyTpubfC0
This was such a cute game, I got it right when it came out and the same weekend I finished playing it, this MAP call showed up! It's roughly unscripted with sections of the game separated out with different aspect ratios, a neat idea!
This part took me roughly 25 hours + 5 hours of editing, over the course of about 4 weeks. It gave me an excuse to learn AE tweening, I had only ever used AE to tween panning BGs so it was fun to use it to animate a character for a change.
I used Procreate for all the drawing, Photoshop for file management, and After Effects for the editing/lighting and tweening. Plus Premiere for editing the YT video.Hollyfawn - [Part 7]Solstrike062022-09-13 | My part for this MAProject! youtu.be/a5FF7MV7Ydk Hosted by @Cheeteh Z and @LettuceBettuce
This is the prophecy at the beginning of the MAP, that shows Hollyleaf (deer) destined to be manipulated by Sol (snake). Altogether it took about 30 hours over the course of a week.
This was pretty fun! I got the part as a backup so since it wasn't a part I had initially asked for, it was interesting figuring out how I wanted to make it simplified yet still my own style.
The three Prophecy parts (Lionblaze - Lion, Jayfeather - Jay, and Hollyleaf - Deer) were all organized by the 3 of us ( @DarkMoon RAY , @TheZodiacLord , and Me) to make sure they were stylistically similar! The BG was drawn by @TheZodiacLord !Sharpen Your Teeth - 8 Hour Feathertail AU [PART C8 - Collab w/@NettIefang@Alfazoing ]Solstrike062022-08-14 | My part for this MAP! youtu.be/c97r3MUFkLc

Characters are Alebrije Feathertail plus Stormpaw (purple), Greystripe (green), and Silverstream (Blue)
This was a real quick MAP! I finished my portion in around 9 hours within a 24h time period, and the whole MAP was completed from applications to premiere in only 5 days!!
This was actually my first time doing a proper collab :D I really loved detectivenettle's poses in the roughs and the compositing totally brought it all together!
The tons fish were drawn by tons of people so I'm not sure who drew the specific fish in this particular part! But here are the Fish Drawers: CryptidInTheCloset, pokefan1241, admortem15, Solstrike06, hesperus, Tigereyes6302, TheZodiacLord, Archiepelago, Butterrho, CheriRumiko, Erm Likes To Draw, Favency, Galaxy Mew, Kuuttituutti, mickadamz, muckrooms, Nixus, Ray née, mobiusghost, Ben Scribbles, Birdisjell, LettuceBettuce, Sqwid, RAWKYSAWRUS, SparroetSerpent Sol - Warriors AU [Part 120]Solstrike062022-07-02 | My part for this MAP! youtu.be/1Yso8mYJnEw
It's a short one but I was so excited to get a part in this project! It's such a creative concept and a great blend of several Warriors stories with Mexican culture and environments :D Plus I'm loving the onset of Storyboarded projects, it lends a whole other layer of cohesion. (And I can't get over the colors in the concept art, aahh)
This took me around ~28 hours over the course of like 12 days or so.

This is my first fully PMV part in a *while* so it was refreshing to not have to do any animation to only work on backgrounds. Altogether, it took me around 12 hours over the course of a week.
It's so cool to see anthro-style projects popping up, I hope we see more anthro warriors in the future!

This project was cancelled and I agree with it's cancellation, but my part was relatively simple and finished. Script for this part: "Tigerclaw creeps behind Thistleclaw’s car and makes eye contact with Thistleclaw."
The concept of an anthro Warriors project really stood out to me so I had to take part! And I'd never been in a storyboarded MAP before but I always loved how consistent the storytelling is when you can have it all storyboarded beforehand. It was fun trying to work with a quicker deadline; altogether this part took about 15 days, which is really quick for me! :D

I usually don't do this much shading (cause it takes a long time) but for the atmosphere/fire etc I thought it would be appropriate!
I loved the idea of this ReAnimate, in the call they mentioned wanting it to feel like an old Don Bluth-style cutscene? Like Land Before Time or All Dogs, idk but the full project is coming together great!Improvement Meme (2005-2022)Solstrike062022-05-06 | I kept seeing people make these this week and it never occurred to me that I could make my own! Then I realized, hey I can!
I recently discovered some of my old animation on an old CD-RW labelled with Sharpie in the back of my closet. I was 12 years old in 2005 :)
I didn't do any animation between 2008-2012 because I was never really good at drawing (hence why I tended towards Lego animations at first) It wasn't until 2012 -- when I was 19 -- that I really started wanting to learn how to draw.
The last 2 animations labelled 2022 are current WIPs that I should have out in a few weeks/months!Groundhog Day: The Musical - Better Than the Movie?Solstrike062022-04-27 | I usually make animation on my channel, but I couldn't pass up the idea of sharing my thoughts on this musical!

Script: Sol whisks away, his tail flicking, and walks off into the far bushes. The three kits run off after a bee down the hill, and Billystorm turns to Leafstar and says his lines looking concerned. Leafstar replies “let him try” as she glares off into the distance. The camera zooms out on all the cats standing there.
First frame/bg is the final frame from the previous part 26 by @sakaisky8192 youtu.be/Yg3JVbC8y1s
This is actually kind of old; I've had this around 70-80% finished since September-ish but haven't had a chance to sit down with it. Anyway I love the idea of voice acted projects so I thought I would hop in one!
I also wanted to get this finished before Feb 27 or else it would have been a whole year without me uploading :P Don't worry, I have more stuff coming it just takes a while! :D
This was an unscripted MAP but I chose to animate the scene at the end of Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, after Spyro saves Cynder and they are reflecting on what could lie in the future. I think the scene was at nighttime but oh well its daytime now :)
It was cool animating dragons! It's always fun to branch out and animate non-cat things from time to time.
If you watched this in the first 45 mins it was uploaded and are wondering why I re-uploaded it, apparently you get limited analytics for videos shorter than 1 min, so I had to add 10 seconds /shrugLay All Your Love On Me [Part 2]Solstrike062020-10-08 | My part for Roseshards' MAP! youtu.be/ViRE-OyHDSA
Script for this part: Show A ¾ view of Dovewing trotting off-camera, Tigerheart being left behind in the background, kind of hiding behind a tree or bush. Then show a shot of Dovewing rejoining her patrol in this distance, try to include Tigerheart’s head or something if you can. At “potential threat” show a close-up of Tigerheart’s face. He then turns to walk away.
I had a lot of fun working on this part, and I thought I would try my hand at doing a character rotation since I haven't tried one of those yet?? It gave me lots of practice figuring how to draw cats at all angles :OHOME - [Part 8]Solstrike062020-05-01 | Here is my part for Koerenn's HOME MAP! - youtu.be/cUR97LXmbjo

Koerenn's background pallette and character designs are awesome! I had a lot of fun working with them.Clouds - Sailplane FlightSolstrike062020-03-04 | This was a 20-second looping animation I made for my Dad as a Christmas present! He wanted an animation to demonstrate to his pilot students how sailplanes/gliders are able to fly without using an engine. They catch the hot air and rise with it like a hot air balloon, then use the height to glide down like a parachute.
The mountains in the far background are modeled loosely after Mt. Susitna and Denali in Alaska :D
The animation is only 20 seconds looping so you don't have to watch the full 4 mins :)

Script for this part: Cloudtail puts his paw over hers and, though still looking nervous and ashamed, she looks back at him, grateful for his support.
This MAP is about Brightheart and Cloudtail's relationship as he helps her through her rut and as she gets her self confidence back!
I also hope you all enjoyed a little look into my progress that I put in there :)Be Prepared Reanimated - [Part 19]Solstrike062019-05-25 | My part for the #BePreparedReanimated project on twitter hosted by @Cloud_wilk !Like a River Runs [Part 20]Solstrike062019-01-14 | My part for Beffalumps' MAP! youtu.be/Gfde73ZEqsg
Script for this part: Redtail smiles at him proudly before dissolving. Ravenpaw pads to stand in the doorway and looks up at the sky. A transition to the next part would be awesome!
This MAP is about Ravenpaw coming to terms with Redtail's death, and he is haunted by Redtail's ghost until Raven realizes that he belongs at the barn with Barley. This part is where Redtail approves of Raven's decision and leaves him.
This was a limited animation MAP, which is why it is kind of PMV with a little bit of animation. The focus was to be on backgrounds/atmosphere!Man on the Moon [Part 16]Solstrike062018-08-07 | This MAP is about Jayfeather walking in the dreams of a bunch of different cats! In my part I chose to focus on Jay's ability to be free from blindness while dreaming. So I included how Cinderpelt dreams of being free from her leg injury, and how Brightheart dreams of being able to fully see Whitekit. But I think I remember Brightheart saying once that she believes her injury is part of her, and she wouldn't get rid of it. So her scars are a transparent overlay, like a though she can never get rid of.
This MAP was a 1-week MAP!! I got a bit of an extension, but I did the whole thing from start to finish in 10 days!! I think that's the fastest I've animated?
Does anyone know what happened to Tumblekit? Never became a warrior but never really died either? Like..? Where he go?

I drew the trees while I wasn't recording so just pretend that you didn't notice them magically appear :O

Script for this part: Clans meet The Tribe of Rushing Water. They happy to meet each other. Cats from Tribe lead Clans in their cave.
This MAP focuses on the Great Journey of the clans through the mountains as they moved to the lake territories. This particular part centers on the clan's first meeting with the Tribe cats, and the Tribe cats bring them to their cave. Incase anyone is wondering, the Tribe cats are Talon (foreground), Crag, and Night.

I've always intended to make something physical for a youtuber, cause I think that's pretty cool. So I chose Team Edge cause I think they're hilarious; they're kind, helpful people who love their families.
Script for this part: Graypaw fight with Dustpelt. Dustpelt win. Graypaw sing: I'm never gonna catch my breath. Dustpelt so proud of himself. He sing: Say good-bye to those who knew me
Sorry I didn't add any shadows :( I meant to add them but they weren't looking right and I'd spent so much time getting the timing right for when Dustpaw pushes Graypaw over that it was suddenly Christmas and I had no time for shadows. So I just settled for floor shadows so that it at least has some depth. Oh well. I still think the timing for the push is off lol

I finished it finally after 3 months ! :D For anyone who was waiting for it, thank you for your patience and faith :) I had a lot of fun making it even if it did take a bit of a while.
I know that Undyne was wearing armor at this point but I just felt like it didn't flow for some reason I dunno, she seems more defensive/primal instinct etc without armor ? That doesn't make any sense but that's what I was thinkin'
Even though it's in palette I tried to make it obvious that this is Cinderpelt and Cinderheart, lol. I wanted to experiment with limping and jumping. It was fun!! My first "big" MAP :) :) I'm honored to have been chosen for a part!

It's Jayfeather singing about whether people are afraid of him because of his powers, and if that happens to other medicine cats or just him. I imagine that he's talking to Leafpool or maybe Spottedleaf offscreen.
It took like 50 zillion years since I posted the WIP... I actually finished animating this like 2 months ago but I was going to do shadows, and then I got distracted..... (....animating Hamilton ... :P) So when I went back to add the shadows I couldn't get them to look right cause they kept clashing with his stripes, oh wells :O
Cause I animated this like 2 months ago, now I think I have him moving waaay too much. Watching his head makes me dizzy, lol
Sorry this is a little rough, but I just wanted to get the layout quickly squared away so I could hop straight into the nitty gritty of the actual animation. Anyway enjoy these sloppy sketches while I go off to actually animate it.... :PBest of Wives and Best of Women [Full Animation]Solstrike062016-05-12 | Shortest song on the amazing Broadway cast album for the Hamilton musical, and apparently shortest song = must be animated according to my brain!

This took me around 20 days to animate, but I was working on it almost every night/weekend while jamming to Hamilton so that's why it took so fast!

Script for these parts: Part 16- He is walking through the forest, looking angry. Show his paws walking, his claws still out. Part 17- He sees a bird singing happily on the ground. He growls and then leaps forward, sinking his teeth into it and killing it.
Ashfur is walking through the forest contemplating his lack of luck with Squirrelflight, and that bird is makin him angry.

LYRICS: When the days are cold And the cards all fold And the saints we see Are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail And the ones we hail Are the worst of all And the blood's run stale
I want to hide the truth I want to shelter you But with the beast inside There's nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed We still are made of greed This is my kingdom come This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide
When the curtain's call Is the last of all When the lights fade out All the sinners crawl
So they dug your grave And the masquerade Will come calling out At the mess you made
Don't want to let you down But I am hell bound Though this is all for you Don't want to hide the truth
No matter what we breed We still are made of greed This is my kingdom come This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide
They say it's what you make I say it's up to fate It's woven in my soul I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright I want to save their light I can't escape this now Unless you show me how
When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide
