Hi folks! This here is my first scripted MAP, and I'm really excited to finally open this!
This project is about Brightheart, and recovery. She struggles with her self-confidence after the dog attack, but her bond with Cloudtail and her family are there for her every step of the way.
My goal is to move the audience with the music and the visuals; Brightheart's story is tragic and beautiful, and I really believe this song is perfect for her. Not to mention relevant, given the context.
I expect each part to be animated, and I'm going to try and keep it to one part per person since they're long and slow.
And for those of you who are still working on Come Along, don't worry! That MAP is still in the works, but it's currently on the back burner until this project is done Before you ask for a part I recommend reading the full script, and just so I know you read at least some of it please paste the script of the part you want when asking for one. TY!

I had so much fun with these designs for real, so happy to have joined this one!Wonderland - Sleekwhisker Pastel MAP part 23Mezais2020-01-05 | HOOWEE this one was a doozy! I experimented with a few things I haven't tried before in Animate and AE, whether or not it turned out is debatable but I had a lot of fun with this nonetheless! I'm super excited to be a part of this MAP
Alrighty so this is my second time uploading this part, I decided to redo the first version because honestly it was really ugly and I wasn't a fan. I like this try a lot better though!

Yes it's Hamilton and yes it's old, but I still like this concept and might one day polish this up to something semi-presentable
The first half I started forever ago so it's kinda ugly but the second half I just did today. The characters here are Sam and her twin sister Mable, Mable being the one singing. Sam told her she was going to settle down with a local colony of cats and Mable feels betrayed that her sister is leaving her

HamiltonParty Invitation MemeMezais2019-10-11 | Surprise!!! I said I wasn't going to make a video for my birthday because I got sick, but I got well enough to whip up something last minute and here we are!
Technically my birthday isn't until tomorrow, but I'm going to a wedding and won't have the chance to upload all day so I'm posting this a day early instead lol
also this isn't an existing meme, I'm just calling it one since I made this with animation memes in mind lmao
Music is "Walkin' on the Sun" by Smash Mouth
okay the nyquil is kicking in and I'm going to pass out now byeAlien Time | MemeMezais2019-07-31 | I hate this so much
If it isn't already obvious I'm super rusty with puppet animation, so this looks super rough. But this meme made me laugh and I couldn't resist jumping on the bandwagon
And yeah the background was ripped straight from DBZ and the drawing at the end was traced
I have been DYING to make an animation to this song omggg
I saw one of my fav utube animators Sear made their own animation meme to this song and I FLIPPED, IT WAS SO COOL ! I knew I had to make my own version lolol
The sorta core theme of this one is maybe a little less obvious then my last meme, but it's not very deep lmao, anyways this is SUPER unpolished oopsHit or Miss (Animation)Mezais2019-07-12 | Will I ever make a serious video? No, probably not
So uhh I was listening to the songs I have downloaded on my Spotify and completely forgot I had this one and lost my mind so naturally I made an animation to it lmao This took me two days to make and put together which just shows my impulse animations are my best ones
I wanted to try more with environments and backgrounds for this part! I'm still rusty with composition but this was a lot of fun!

I love Crystal Castles and I love this meme. The creator of the original animation (Lovely Lauren on Youtube) remade it recently and I was so inspired by it! Here's a link to it: youtube.com/watch?v=jJx8G_h-7C8

Hello! And welcome to an idea I've had cooking for a while
This is a 3 day anything Warrior Cats MAP, meaning your part can consist off any character from any book so long as it's related (this means no OCs!) You will have 24 hours after receiving your part to provide a WIP, and 72 hours after receiving your part to finish
This is also a colour pallet MAP, please stick to the colours provided to you shown in the beginning of the video (Different shades of the pallet are okay). The theme of this MAP is Celebration and Culture! When asking for a part please tell me what your general idea is (just so I don't get too many parts depicting similar scenes).
Please make your part animated! Tweening is welcome if used modestly.
You may only get a second part if you have finished your first!
I reserve the right to ask you to redo your part if you do not listen to the rules / remove you from the project.
Intro: For the intro I am going to need art of the territories using the colour pallet! If you would like to contribute with a background feel free to link me too your piece once it's done :)

Here's a rough draft similar to the Mapleshade Brutus animatic I uploaded almost exactly a year ago, this time starring Bluestar and her struggle to leadership and how her past trauma affected her in her later years
I hope to actually polish and animate this! There's many changes I want to make (including how entire scenes are staged) but for now I'm very happy to upload what I have so far and I hope you enjoy! (Let me know if you'd like a brief summary of what happens since it gets a little confusing in the middle)

Same characters as last time as well! I had so much fun with the colour pallet I can not wait to see the final map!
If you've seen my other uploads you might recognise these two from the Collab I did with Okami Wolven! I used to draw Yavi and Taro all the time and I got the urge to do something with these two again, so today I sat down and made this :-)
Taro of course belongs to Grace and you should go subscribe to them right now if you haven't already, they're an incredibly talented artist and animator and a very dear friend of mine youtube.com/user/OkamiWolven

I've had this song stuck in my head for the past few weeks, I love Jack Stauber's content and this song is one of my favs of his. While listening to one of his albums I opened up Animate and fooled around a bit and here we are
Yes I am aware there are animation memes that use this part of the song, no this isn't based on them.
Yet another vid with this guy lmao, I'll use a different character soon I promise
Another MAP part in the bag! This time for a really neat concept that Draikinator came up with. I enjoyed all of Nate's MAPs and I'm really excited to take part in one! Let me know if I need to change anything!
I use Adobe Animate for the animation and After Effects for editing and rendering

Time taken- about two days of work Programs used- Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Animate, After Effects Character- RascalWii TennisMezais2019-01-21 | I made an animation meme! This song is so catchy, I couldn't resist
I'm so excited to be a part of this MAP! For such a short part it was surprisingly challenging to get this right, I ended up starting three different versions of the Line-art just to get the style, timing, and framing right! Overall I still had a lot of fun working on this and I can't wait to see the final result!

I had a day off work and spent most of it working on this (all of the animation was done today) There's a lot of parts that still need more in-between frames, but I'll probably just do that with the lineart ;; I'm real excited to be hosting this, and there's still seven parts available! youtube.com/watch?v=LD6AhvNSIcoBrambleclaw and Hawkfrost Warrior Cats MAP Call: THE OTHER SIDE (Backups Open)Mezais2018-10-27 | EDIT: A couple days after uploading this I learned that another animator is hosting a MAP with the same song and characters! I highly encourage everyone to check out their call as well, they have a really well made script! youtube.com/watch?v=9DK3GiPgHTw&t=11s
I say it's time for another Multiple Animator Project!
Hello artists and animators! I'm so excited to finally share an idea I've had on the back burner for some time now. Brambleclaw and Hawkfrost in The Other Side- a Multiple Animator Project inspired by the Warrior Cats books by Erin Hunter.
This MAP is not supposed to be focused on storytelling! Instead, the emphasis will be on the characters of Brambleclaw and Hawkfrost, and the conversation happening between the two of them through the song. Hawkfrost is trying to convince Brambleclaw that they would make great leaders, and that they should follow in the footsteps of their father Tigerstar. Brambleclaw is persuaded and agrees that he could make a great leader! But will his ambition be his downfall like his father?
This MAP was made for lip syncing and character interaction. The story told here is through body language and song, not scene changes and visuals!
It feels really good to have a finished animation again, even if it's quite short. Turns out I had a lot of fun making this! Although After Effects really tested my patience with the editing ;; I wanted to add more background stuff but it was rendering so slowly that I just stuck to lighting and such instead. Overall, this was a lot of fun and I'm so happy to be a part of this project! (P.S.: the extra cats include: Brick, Bone, Barley, Tigerstar, Firestar, and my three cats disguised as bloodclan cats ;)
Sendspace: UNFORTUNATELY THE FILE IS TOO BIG FOR SENDSPACE! Klarikatt if it's alright with you I can email the file to you, or we can work out another way to share it! Please feel free to PM me!
Programs: Adobe Animate Adobe After EffectsTiny Dont You Know MAP part 26 WIPMezais2018-07-22 | Here's a basic sketch of my plan for this part! Map call can be found here: youtube.com/watch?v=Z3jNjL2-Ctc The only canon cats are Bone, Brick, Barley, Scourge, Tigerstar and Firestar, the rest are random bloodclan catsBRUTUS : MAPLESHADEMezais2018-05-28 | Edit: Unfortunately the quality dropped when I moved the editing process from After effects to Premiere, I'm very sorry about that :( unfortunately there's nothing I can do (it's also why the dimensions are slightly off)
I'm so glad to finally upload a version of this project!
I've been working on this idea off and on for what is almost two years now; I've started and re started it four times and I have various folders saved on photoshop and animate, and finally I put enough together to show this idea!
The song is Brutus, preformed by Buttress, and it is a personal favourite of mine! I highly recommend you check it out, the music video is amazing youtube.com/watch?v=bI8MT5lVU5c
When I listened to this song I couldn't help but connect it to Mapleshade's story, the perspective and the lyrics really strike true to an inner part of her character (at least in my opinion). Therefor I decided to storyboard it! It's possible I might do more with this project, but right now chances are pretty slim. Either way, I hope you enjoy!

Warriors is a series of novels published by HarperCollins; it is written by authors Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Tui Sutherland, with the plot developed by editor Victoria Holmes, who collectively use the pseudonym Erin Hunter.3s memeMezais2018-05-27 | Okay so I've had this vid on my channel for a little while unlisted but I decided to make it public because I haven't posted a lot lately and Idk i had a lot of fun with this!
So I'm sure most people know of this animation meme, it's such a classic, but for those who don't the original was made by Corvid Katana (flightfootwarrior at the time) and it truly captures the golden era of early 2000's animation memes youtube.com/watch?v=9BhQKVWcXBo
The characters I used here are three of my earliest 'fursonas' from when I was a kid, the brown one with the weird tail being my first ever. I know it's kind of weird in this context, but I thought it would be suitable to since I had them around the time the original 3's meme came out and it was such a nostalgia blast
Anyway, I hope you all can enjoy my take, I really highly recommend doing some of the original animation memes, it is such a blast and I plan on doing it more!Bubble ButtMezais2018-05-23 | Edit: this is like the third timre ive made this public im so sorry
IM MAKING THIS PUBLIC AGAIN BECAUSE I HAVE NO SHAME
Honestly I'd try to explain myself but I think that would just dig me deeper in this hole
All of the comments about Yavi's butt on my collab with Okami Wolven are great and make me laugh.

I have a lot of ongoing projects right now, but most of my time was taken up working on my university applications. But now that I'm done and spring break has just started I have plenty of time to work on my personal animations! Here are a few examples of what I'm working on :) Music used is copyright to the original artists: Café k.k. - Animal Crossing Johanna - Sweeney Todd Nym - Phlux Carmen - Stromae

My friend Grace recently uploaded this: youtube.com/watch?v=khLh1cmY6so and the first thing I said to them was "Are you fucking okay?"

I'm so relieved to have this finished! I know it isn't extremely polished, but I wanted to focus more on movement and interaction rather than cleanliness. Unfortunately I managed my time pretty poorly, so this is a couple days late. I'm sorry about that Forest, I hope you are alright with this part anyways! Let me know if there's anything that might need changing :)
