You can see the original design for the Sun in my Hollow Moon animatic :) I've redesigned the gods since then. The Sun god is a combination of cicada, hawk, and falcon. I'm hoping to share the Moon redesign in the upcoming future.
Thank you, Sunbird, for having me!! Your projects are always legendary and deserve way more attention.

✦ DISCORD SERVER (spectators allowed, participants and backups MUST join!):
discord.gg/7NdXkcg9pC
✦ RULES
- First WIP check for rough animation will be March 29th (Friday). We will decide as a team what a suitable due date is.
- Participants are applying to only do the rough animation for a part. I will be doing the rest of the part (cleanup, backgrounds, compositing).
- Participants need to be responsive to updates and checks for the MAP. WIP checks will be twice a month.
- Discord is required, so you must be at least 13 to participate. Your audio will be cut for you for maximum precision.
- Fill out the form and comment "Applied" on the video! If you're collaborating with someone, they need to reply to the comment that they've applied and submit their own form.
- Let me know right away if you need to drop or need help with your part.
✦ SCRIPT
Part 1: Hollykit trips and rolls onto the grass. After recovering, she notices something off screen.
Part 2: Mamma fox is holding a bird. She watches Hollykit then cautiously slinks away.
Part 3: Closeup on Hollykit, beaming with joy and wonder. Paws enter the frame.
Part 4: Leafpool anxiously looks to where Mamma Fox went. When she's sure the fox left, Leafpool looks down warmly at Hollykit.
Part 5: Wide shot. Leafpool picks up Hollykit and carries her back to the forest.
Finally putting this part here, it's two months old by now (when I share it publicly). Nice practice for drawing and editing the sky :)

0:07 *PART 144 & 145*
144 was done over the course of many months, and it still isn't complete. That's okay with me. I'm happy with keeping it at the stage it is. I decided instead of lining the rough animation, I directly cleaned up the sketch (which meant erasing a lot of lines). The long timespan was due to my focus split across schoolwork, personal projects, and the challenge of the part itself. It is emotion focused and I wanted to do my best to convey Hollyleaf's feelings while still using subtly. The part isn't perfect, but I think the mistakes make it more personal to me.
I learned from part 145 (the flowers) that there is a lot of theory that goes into draw and coloring flowers.
Here is part 144 by itself:

0:56 *CREDITS STORYBOARD*
I did my sections of the storyboard in June and July (2023). Here is a playlist of each section I did: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtJeesuGnDs4wW4FnkUshdZLD5-LS-mQN&si=oNxNL25PjJ_YO-gQ
I wanted to reference many different parts from previous MAPs. I welcome people to guess and spot the callbacks. The credits were going to have a graphic style, with only the end portion being in a traditional Warrior-Cat-MAP style. The red boxes represent where the text would've gone. "Wooden Soldiers" by Modest Mouse was trimmed and cut for the credits.

"Don't Say You Love Me" by Depeche Mode
I like animating Hollyleaf and the song Brutus, so this was a fun combo for this part. The MAP is an AU and originally storyboarded by HJanset. During the process, I did some modifications with the storyboard to better fit my animation's flow. The animation isn't perfect, but I did enjoy the process.

MUSIC USED
"Brutus" by The Buttress
I'm very happy I saw TCW perform live on November 5th, 2023! There, they showed previews for upcoming songs. "The Well" was one of them. Since they've now officially released the song, I wanted to make a piece in celebration. I thought the lyrics fit Leafpool, so I used some imagery that connects to her story.
Leafpool is on snow, guarding her babies. There is water cascading around her as stars shine it in. The water was inspired by the moon pool and wells, so I put Leafpool at the "bottom". Leafpool has to hide her feelings and the truth whilst carrying the burden of Starclan's judgement (the spirits at the top), thus cowering. I thought it'd be a cool visual to have Leafpool's tabby stripes mimic a ribcage, but I decided to go for a more subtle approach to the skeleton imagery. After all, everyone has a skeleton in their closet (haha). Even though Leafpool is not directly involved in the fire scene, she still had a major influence on those events. Fire is an intense force of nature and the opposite of snow & water, so it made Starclan's presence more threatening.
Since my semester ended, I plan to compile my 2D Animation I coursework into a video to share with you guys :]

Fef has graciously let me participate in a project amongst friends :] ! I animated Yippeepaw eating a sugar cookie. I think I finished this in a two hour sitting, so it was fun to be let loose and silly with this.
She is growing stronger from the cookie's power.
This was also great practice for my animation final (since the character in that project will be chewing). When the semester ends, I'm planning to compile my 2D animation class work into a video. Happy holidays!
Happy Thanksgiving to anyone celebrating.

I'm truly so glad to be able to work on Spider and the Lamps - this MAP introduced me to Razias Shadow in middle school. That album impacted my taste in music and art. I'm hoping to one day make animatics/storyboards to the songs from Razias Shadow, but being involved in this MAP is already a bucket list item crossed. Thank you, Roarasaurus, for having me on it!
You guys should check out the other projects they've hosted + made :) "I'll Be Home For Christmas" was one of the first MAPs I've ever joined and I'm so honored Roar trusted me with this part.
I wanted to share the WIP here since it might be some time until this is all cleaned up.

Holly doesn’t fit in with Thunderclan and struggles to connect with her mother, Leafpool. Continuously going against clan norms, Holly runs away to outside the territory. She finds an orphaned red-fox kit, naming them Rowan. As she raises Rowan, the fox is influenced by Holly’s resentment of Leafpool. Rowan finally snaps and acts on these trained feelings. Holly has the choice of whether or not Leafpool faces her demise.
“Between the aches a moment takes control.”
CONTENT WARNING: There are implied and on-screen depictions of animal death, blood, and hunting. No firearms are shown on screen, but a bird is shot.

I've changed the staging / camera angle of this part so it'll still be a surprise. The paw rotation was fun to work on :)
The thumbnail is a test for the new version of the part.
"Blood is thicker than water, but sinks faster."
In the Blood is a project inspired by Supergiant's Game, Hades. After escaping to the tunnels, Hollyleaf gradually opens up to Fallen Leaves and they both share their backstories.
Thank you to the participants and my friends, who were so committed to this project. This was the first MAP I've hosted and during its production, I've learned a lot about the management and development of projects. Everyone truly gave it their all with their parts and were awesome to work with.
The artistry in Hades is truly inspiring and it felt fitting to pair it with characters who end up underground. Please do check out all the artists who worked on the project and take a peek at the work Supergiant Games does :)

"The Herald" by Darren Korb
------
In my Visual Storytelling class, we had a Game Pitch project where we created concept art for a hypothetical game. I really enjoyed developing the concept and made this animatic for extra credit. As the player, you can choose between Sizzle or Spark for the salamander.
The animatic depicts a boss fight you'd encounter in the Overstayed Winter biome. You fight a bear's dream projection.
I made this animatic in ~2 days and experimented with a new process. I drew each asset in Clip Studio Paint before transferring the images to After Effects for editing.

"Sleeping Giants" by The Crane Wives
I like to interpret that paws are a key symbol of Holly's potential and choices. As an artist, I rely on my hands to craft my work. Hollyleaf uses her own paws to create flowers. We see her paws at key moments of her life and as a way to better understand her emotions.
I'd like to highlight some parts here that show the importance of Holly's paws.

The depths of the earth are an unforgiving place, and Hollyleaf was unfortunate enough to get trapped there. She discovers hope of escape when a curious (and timid) spirit, Fallen Leaves, offers to be her guide. He has the power to glow, providing Hollyleaf with the light she needs to navigate the tunnels.
This power isn’t unlimited. Fallen Leaves’ whiskers burn up the more he uses it. When the two get separated in the tunnels, Fallen Leaves uses up his whiskers in an attempt to find Hollyleaf. The drawings on the wall come to life, reflecting the spirit’s panic. Hollyleaf is more calm when lost, working gradually through the tunnels in search of her guide.
Hollyleaf finds Fallen Leaves when he’s used up all his lights and fading away. Fallen Leaves comes to peace in his final moments now that he’s reunited with his friend. Perhaps they would’ve been able to escape together if Hollyleaf searched faster, or if Fallen leaves rationed his lights out more.
“It’s a tragedy.”
- Hermes, Hadestown
--------------------
The project was conceptualized on November 12th, 2021, when I was listening to "Doubt Comes In" during my Digital Media class. It's a song that makes me emotional each time. I've learned a lot from the MAPs I've been hosting and it felt appropriate to use Hollyleaf and Fallen Leaves for the narrative of Eurydice and Orpheus (... again). Although Eurydice is the one we lose in the original myth, I felt this version of the story worked better if it was Fallen Leaves who passed on. Pre-production started in June/July of 2022 and I'm grateful my friends were enthusiastic to help. A lot of changes happened to the story and art direction, but a theme that remained constant was love and light. Fallen Leaves inspires Hollyleaf to gain confidence and acts as a beacon of hope.
It was a pleasure to work with all of the participants. I met a lot of artists and they truly gave the project their all. I hope you all will see passion and dedication everyone put into this MAP.

It took a while to finish this, but collabing with others made the process so much more efficient. I'm very happy with how this part came out, it was a blast to edit!

She awakes in the middle of the night to the sound of coughing in the Healer’s den. Leafpool catches Hollyleaf giving Sandstorm water. Hollyleaf has an epiphany and realizes that she wants to become a healer like Leafpool but Leafpool denies her the role because Leafpool is worried about the prophecy. Squirrelflight arrives in time to comfort her.

Script:
Hollyleaf is on the floor of a cave entrance. Behind her is a rubble of rocks, suggesting she was caved in. The lantern she was using for light burns out, revealing a spirit. Hollyleaf shows the spirit, Fallen Leaves, she’d like to leave the tunnels. Fallen Leaves offers to guide Hollyleaf with his whiskers acting as their torch. They walk into the mines together.
MUSIC USED
"Doubt Comes In" from the Hadestown Broadway Soundtrack.
