Let's goooo
About this AU - it is a role swapping AU, of two of my favorite character foils in all of warrior cats - Rusty, and Tiny. Half brothers, and both kittypets who were offered different opportunities in life. I wanted to explore how each of them would make use of the other's opportunities. Tiny is given the opportunity to become a forest warrior cat, known as Tinyfrost; and Rusty, when driven off by Tigerclaw, becomes the leader of a clan of feral street cats - taking the name Boon. (Boon? Antonym of Scourge? Eh? Eh? XD)
This video focuses on Boon's story and how he came to found FireClan, with the help of his friends Barley, Violet, and of course Yellowfang (who provided all the stories and training needed to found the Clan.) Someday I'd like to make other storyboards or other projects revolving around Tinyfrost's story, or other characters in this AU. I've spent a lot of time thinking about it and writing about it haha.
I'm so happy with how this turned out. I used it as a chance to push my storyboarding work, and try out new techniques and tools I wasn't used to. I learned how to use Toon Boom Storyboard Pro's 3D tools (DEFINITELY want to use that more) as well as learning how to model in Blender! The background of the StarClan shot, the trees and rocks, I made using Blender's tree and rock generators. Once I figure out how to use Blender completely, my storyboards will be unstoppable! Hoohoo! But first I gotta juice up my computer, the poor thing was one heartbeat away from crashing when I tried to export this monster haha.
Eventually I do plan to host a MAP (multi-animator-project) of this video, but I've got a lot of character designs, set designs and color palettes to figure out before that can happen. But keep an eye out for that! I just wanted to upload the finished storyboard anyway, because I am proud of it.

I tried some new things with this one - if its not obvious, I put my emphasis on character designs and especially on background painting for this part, rather than animation. :) The MAP doesnt have a specific style guide, so Sad-Machine was kind enough to let me experiment! And for a MAP about friendship, something in the style of Winnie-the-Pooh seemed like a match made in heaven. (Plus I fell in love with the idea of Longtail with missing button eyes and a knotted rope tail.) Mimicking the style of inking and watercolor paint from Winnie-the-Pooh turned out to be a lot of fun as well, and Im really happy with that tree!
Big thanks to @frostewyrm - I had to finish this video yesterday due to other commitments, but was feeling like I was hit by a truck and barely able to draw or paint. Froste very kindly hopped in to finish up the coloring on the characters for me. Absolutely saved my life and this part.

Froggy is my character from the tabletop roleplaying game Im playing with my friends. Hes a swamp shapeshifter who is a bear and a frog and a dwarf amongst other things - and he recently met a very handsome tiefling cowboy druid named Carson who is ALSO a bear and this audio fits them too well
I love Froggy so so so much
Audio is from gamegrumps I think?")
