Have a good day owo•BRUTUS• {wip}starbois2023-03-15 | happy 2066th anniversary of the assassination of everyone’s favourite Roman dictator, Julius Caesar!!
as a celebration, here’s a snippet of the video i’ve been working on. the story of Brutus is one of the few more or less disturbing topics i’m passionate about enough to make a person i’m speaking to uncomfortable. other ones include but are not limited to Lenin’s corpse, Hoia Baciu forest, the Dyatlov Pass incident, ‘Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm’ and such, so as a rule of thumb don’t bring those up when you’re around me. or do.
i don’t know to what extent you’re familiar with the story of Caesar’s assassination, but i highly recommend reading up on that! everybody loves a story of internal conflict, loyalty and betrayal, the philosophy and morals of rule, and conspiracy.
besides the big ancient daddy’s death anniversary, another reason i wanted to post this wip was the fact that i’m graduating in May (ikr, wth) so i’m currently really busy with being busy and definitely won’t be able to post anything until then.
okay i guess we’re back to thesis-paper-long video descriptions. bye now. be safe and thank you for your kindnessevery time i’ve drawn my face over the last 3 years, just because.starbois2023-02-27 | probably the most vulnerable/personal thing i’ve posted on this channel in years. my perception of *the self* used to play a humongous role in my life, so in a way this video could be considered a short walk through personhood. enjoy??
music: “The Fairest Of The Seasons” by Nico
i originally wanted to compile every self portrait in the past 5 or 6 years, but while it would be fun, i’m not exactly comfortable with sharing my early art with a (potentially) large audience, especially since it’s not like it has great artistic value. i’m thinking that if i ever made a patre0n or something of that kind i could make that sort of video for shits and giggles, or just content with my old sketchbooks in general. but again, the idea is still quite abstract.
anyway, i’ve had a very VERY shitty time the past few months, but i’m happy to say that i’m doing better and working on something. like actually working on something. i think it’s turning out really cool so i don’t really want to rush it, but it does exist, i promisepenelope just got herestarbois2022-06-16 | here's a shitpost i made about a month ago, very good use of my time nglScattered Pearls - oc animaticstarbois2022-05-06 | well to celebrate me turning 18 here's a short animatic on girlhood, womanhood and daughterhood. there's not that much else to say besides that the video is about the time 16 year old Rosanna and her friend Portia sneaked out into the city to meet harsh reality. hot girl summer innit. anyway thank you for your time, stay safe ♡

I'm back with another video about Rosanna!
Although people rarely ever realize this, Rosanna is an incredibly empathic person, who's very cautious and connected to her surroundings. This hyper-awareness leads her to being able to notice ghosts and energies around her, which she ignores for the most part, since she assumes it's the way everyone perceives the world. Of course, that doesn't mean those things don't get to her. Other people's stories and statistics are an everyday struggle for her, perhaps that may be why she's so often perceived as cold.

this animatic vaguely illustrates the events leading up to the death of Rosanna and Henry's mother. This one is from Rosanna's point of view, im planning on making one from Henry's side in the future.

I started working on another story, so this is the first, but not the last time you see those characters on my channel. if you wish to see more of them, visit my instagram @_starbois you can do that, i guess, i'm not going to tell you what to do.
anyways the events in this video are happening before a serious epidemy starts (I PROMISE IT'S NOT THE CARBONARAVIRUS). Rosanna and Henry are twins that grew up in a small town with their severely mentally ill mother. in his early teenage years Henry decides to move in with his father and start education in a big city several hundred kilometers from his home town in order to guarantee himself a better start into adulthood. Rosanna stays - partially to take care of her mother and partially because her father sucks. she blames Henry for leaving and always makes sure that he's aware of that. she remains bitter up until their mother dies.sketchbook flip throughstarbois2020-04-06 | it's here! those two sketchbooks took a lot of blood and tears to fill and if i squint my eyes the right way i sometimes think it was worth it :D I'm rambling.
the song used in the video is "Sugar Money" by Cloudy Sunshine, thank you so much for letting me use it! here's a link youtu.be/_CjDHOPD4oA pls give them some love :Ddeath of the phone call - oc videostarbois2020-01-26 | song: death of the phone call by whatever, dad
i made a stupid video that establishes that danielle and abbey used to be friends as kids but are not anymore. because they used to be and are not anymore. abbey is afraid of commitment to mostly anything while danielle bases her entire self worth on how other people perceive her. ain't that a fun dynamic.
im tired im tired im tired im tired most of the subtitles were done from memory so i hope i didnt offend any French people, if i did, please proceed to get over it and have a nice day

here's an a bit lame emotion-driven animatic because feELINGS. basically little Danielle walking/laying around being sad. inspired by myself walking/lying around being sad. ain't youth something.
song: "happy to see me" by hop along, it's literally in the video but someone's still going to ask about it so heremy slumbering heart - a short pmvstarbois2019-12-20 | [a re-upload because reasons, I'm so sorry]
a little update on life stuff: I'm aware that half of my audience is aggressively interested in my personal life and the other half is aggressively uninterested, so I'll try and make this quick: in September I started art school + moved a couple hours away from my home town because I cannot do anything like a normal person. Everything after that is just a mush of really horrible things happening one by one like I'm some Deviantart oc with too dark backstory. Right now due to my mental health, family changes and art school being somewhat lame I'm moving back with hopes that I'll once again have time and energy to create things i love creating.
Thank you all so much for your patience, the amount of support I'm getting even when I'm not working on anything is insane and makes every day a little bit more bearable. I'm trying my best to start posting frequently again ❤️presumably dead arm - animaticstarbois2019-09-03 | TW for a little bit of gore but it's nothing you can't handle don't worry
song: "presumably dead arm (617 session)" by Sidney Gish
Where do I start with this. After Marina disappears Tom decides that he and his daughter will move to his home town. When Danielle starts school there, she meets and quite quickly makes friends with Cath (who by the way is baby and arguably the only person in the entire cast who's capable of empathy). Some stuff happens and by the begging of April Danielle and Cath start dating. They're terrible at it, every cute moment they have ends with a big LMAO NO HOMO moment because they're scared god might be watching them. Oh and Danielle is a terrible person and only dates Cath in the sake of her own ego.
More story is to come in the next videos, I can't let this description be too long.pink in the nightstarbois2019-07-22 | ❤️Song: pink in the night by Mitski
Hello, it is I, the one hit wonder. It's 1 am please help me.
The lady from the video's name is Lucy. She's a single mom who falls in love with Tom (protagonist's dad), who's marriage is falling apart. Soon after their daughters stop being friends they start an affair, but Tom can't fully return Lucy's feelings since he's still trying to work things out with his wife (Marina). The part from 1:12 is happening after my "happy to see me" animatic. After Marina runs away Tom decides to move back to his hometown to rest a little and avoid the rumors surrounding his wife's disappearance. Tom and Lucy have an important conversation in the middle of the night in which Lucy apologizes for not acknowledging the seriousness of Tom's woes and treating the whole thing like a highschool romance, while Tom explains that he needs a break from everything that has happened.
Over a year later Tom and Lucy are living together and trying to build a familyProm Queen - PMV (tw)starbois2019-05-03 | TW: eating disorders, self harm

bro it's been like five months since posting i hate this video so fluffing much why is still gaining views let.it.die.
[edit] the video hit 100k views while I was asleep. This is the first time (I've been making videos for nearly 2 years) when my video hits the algorithm and makes it big. Thank you everyone for the support, for the first time I am not able to respond to every comment, which I am very sorry for. When I first made that video it was for 100 of my subscribers and maybe 4 internet friends, now I'm getting a couple hundred subscribers and tens of comments per day. As you can imagine, it's a new situation that i need to adjust to. Thank you everyone, have a wonderful day ❤️
[edit 2] YES THAT IS A POLISH MAGAZINE, I AM POLISH, SO WHAT MAGAZINE DID YOU EXPECT, BULGARIAN?
[edit 3] I didn't think I would need to explain it, but here it is: ❤️Ballerina's pourpose in the video is to be a contrast to the rest of the clips. Other clips are illustrating the struggle, while the smiling ballerina is representing what the public gets to see. ❤️I am not bashing ballet industry. I am not a dancer, so I can not speak from my own experience. I have spoken to quite a lot of ballet dancers (both in real life and online after posting this video) and a lot of them admit that they are under a lot of pressure and live in constant fear of gaining weight. Not everyone is the same and the fact that you (as a dancer) personally don't have to go through this shouldn't discredit and invalidate other people's struggles, I thought this would be obvious.Adeleine - oc speedpaintstarbois2019-03-09 | Song: There Goes A Tenner by Kate Bush
Aah i'm taking a break from the "main" story i've been working on. I'll try to focus on this one instead, i started working on it when i was 12 and it's still not complete. It's called "kid from the fridge", as lame as it sounds, i really like the theme and the story and would die for the characters. I plan on making some pmvs with it, so hopefully im going to explain the story then.
For now just take a speedpaint of one of the villans... Well not villans, more like... bosses you have to combat to get to the villan? She's beatiful, and yellow, and i have a big crush on her. So yeah. Enjoy owo
Ye. I ain't gonna explain anything, just try to enjoy those little animation practices, thank you, have a nice day ❤️

Here's an animatic from the beginning of September, back when i was sick and had time to do things. I finally edited it and figured i should post it? So yeah, you're welcome.
About the story, i guess: I introduce you to Caelan! If you are following me on Instagram you might recognize her?? Maybe?? Please?? She's a secondary character in a story that i'm working on. I'd like to explain it to you, but unfortunately everything is still just a mess and explaining it would take ages. AnD WE DON'T WANT IT, DO WEE? I'm rambling again, aren't i? 💚BASICALLY💚 Caelan is extremely troubled person with a lot of mental health issues and overall problem with accepting herself, she's struggling to recover from an eating disorder, and everything sucks. She just got into relationship with this cute guy she had a crush on for like a while. And all this time she dreamed how being with him would make her happy and fix everything. WELL IT DIDN'T FUCKIN WORK, DID IT, HON So yeah, animatic is just Caelan being anxious, sad, and confused for one minute and twenty six seconds straight. You're welcome.
Wow if read all of this. Like. You must really care about Caelan. Thanks for being such an amazing person and caring about Caelan 💖💖💖
Funny how this animatic became more relatable with time. Huh.
I need more tea.
