Dream a Little Harder - Twisted - Starkid
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2021
- Okay, so I started this whole thing like 2 months ago. I told myself that "this will be a fun little thing that I can do real quick". But the fact that I've been silent for so long kinda begs to differ. At some point, I wanted to make animatics for all the songs in the musical. But now I'm not as sure because it took so long! But we'll see maybe I'll make more at some point. But the next upload will definitely be something much simpler!
This is the first number in the musical Twisted made by the group Starkid. It's basically just Alladin but if Jafar was the good guy. Here's the link to it. The whole show is up on youtube for free!: • Twisted: The Untold St...

"Why is everyone in the kingdom white?"
The artist hasn't colored you in yet sweetie you're still in animation phase
jafar whitewashed the whole kingdom 😭😭😭
@@Mel-0n It is all your fault Jafar
@@Mel-0n It is all your fault Jafar
Obviously Jafar took away the animation budget.
the rats... ejacul-
Alternate title: If Jafar was a disney princess.
Actually, more like if Jafar was the good guy and Aladdin was just a sleave trying to steal and get laid
@@jakestavinsky3480 exactly. Disney princess.
@@jakestavinsky3480 Basically the entire plot of twisted.
@@jakestavinsky3480 so basically Some kind of some kind of alternate reality where are the roles are reversed (and Aladdin is a Psycho Creep with Kleptomania) , but Jafar still seen as “The Villain” despite being a nice guy Who can never get anything right. (I read a summary of the play on Wikipedia.)
(Also, He is called Ja’far instead of Jafar. He just has a apostrophe between the First “A” and “F”.)
Technically everyone's a princess by the end so this is totally accurate! 😂 🖤
"This is all your fault, Jafar."
"Maybe if you threw a parade once in a while..."
Thanks, Herman
none of this would have happened is he just fixed the socioeconomic inequality like he promised
“ACHMED THE TIGER FUCKER!”
@@dominosdoggos3208 "I didn't fuck a tiger" Achmed the tiger fucker
1:16 I just realized here that the "tragic story" Aladdin told Jasmine is not even a special one, since basically everyone's parents died because of the poor condition of the nation.
If anything he was lucky they survived his bullshit for 33 whole years
You’re right…. 💀
Plus, he literally killed them.
"because of the poor condition of the nation."
Because they live in the Disney kingdom, and EVERY mother have to die there.
@@ironwraith852he doesn’t remember that yet though, to him it just… happened one day. But either he knows full and we’ll it’s not a big deal and knows JASMINE will think it’s a big deal, or he genuinely thinks he has the hardest life in the kingdom. I’m leaning towards the latter, but I’d say stuff can be two things.
the only bad thing about this is that it makes me want animatics like this for the entire rest of the musical
Can you imagine No One Remembers Achmed in this style, perfection
@@beyoncealways2911 I would cry
@@thebirdsareuptosomething4938 in joy
@@beyoncealways2911 | Achmed? Who's that?
UGH RIGHT A THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS WOULD BE PERFECTION
can u imagine just going out into town and suddenly the whole town is performing a choreographed number about how ugly you are. id be impressed tbh
does this not happen to other people
@@beek.4860 idk I mean it happens to me on the daily
I'd sing along in agreeance
i love how robert's character actually looks like him
Same
And Lauren´s characters are little kids :)
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
I was just gonna comment this 😅
I saw him at the very beginning in the background and was like "😲 that him. The man, the legend, *the* Robert Manion"
My favorite underrated joke is the BOOKSHOP OWNER says "Oh, so you you think you're better than me just because you can read?!?"
You are missing the best part: "Well get out of my bookstore, we don't like your kind in here anyway" (your kind being people that can read?)
@@MaximeKruijer an excellent addition
Hoo boy I did not notice Starkid in the title when I clicked on this and thought this was probably just a scrapped song from Aladdin so 0:37 caught me VERY off guard
Me too ahaha (:
Lmaooo
Yup, that gave me a moment of pause.
Oh my gosh that's hilarious I hadn't thought of that
Right there with you. I spent those 37 seconds thinking, "I see why they cut this. No point in trying to make _Jafar_ sympathetic."
I'm still kicking myself I didn't recognize Dylan Saunders sooner.
i have laid in waiting for years for twisted to get the love it deserves
R I G H T
SO TRUEEE
me tooooooo!!!!!
SAME
Wait this has exist for years?!?!?
How come just finding out about it
props to you for making Jafar look kind and gentle without removing his "Jafar" features
Exactly.
I think it's largely the eye shape.
it’s the round eyes 100%
His Jafeatures
HIS JAFEATURES!!!!!
I love this so much
hey checkmark and also so true this reallg is a hidden gem, hope to see it gain attention soon
FREAKING SCHAFFRILLAS IS HERE??? DAMN and yeah this animator is extremely underrated and I hope people start to discover them soon
Thank you! That means a lot coming from you. Love your videos!
Eeey! Schaffrillas hi!!!
Bruh can you watch some of the Starkid musicals including Twisted? I'd like to see how you would rate them
When I saw the live action remake of Aladdin the only thing I could think of while watching it was how much better Twisted did it...
Also, the fact that they forgot Achmed
@@ezelfrancisco1349 no one remembers achmed
@@ezelfrancisco1349 whose achmed?? I only know tiger fucker
Omg me too lol
You think Pixar would’ve made sure Achmed was in the remake
THE “What?” “Fuck you.” IS MAKING ME LOSE ITTTT
What?
Its unironicly capable of making me laugh everytime. The delivery of fuck you completely seriously
"Why's Everyone in the kingdom White?"
XD gets me every time
Uhm ja’far
@@huntermansam2006 JA'FAR
It more the crowd's reaction, not wanting to admit their racism then blaming it on Ja'far.
Mostly of Welsh origin.
@@smolghostdog6756 a man who just could ever trust a face that brings such disgust
This is the best Twisted animation ever holy crap
I’d say it’s in the top 5, yes
It's an animatic. Not an animation
@@Exzimius thank you all knowing the amazing spider-man comic dubs :) i definitely didnt write animation because i thought it'd stand out more
@@swesq2185 love this response!
I agree although this is the only twisted animation i've seen
Yellow-py, you have no right drawing jafar this cute
I disagree, she does a good job drawing him!
He looks exactly like his Disney counterpart, But better!
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 Exactly how I picture the Twisted version to look animated!
@@gabeheartz13saravia97
Meant to be a joke bro
@@Parasolhyena I agree!
If you think this is cute, then check out the stage version
It's really impressive how you kept jafar's design p much intact but still made him look nicer. Part of it's your style a little bit, but also you pushed the right parts to make him look more innocent and nice.
I know right!! Particularly his original design was meant to be vile and evil looking, it’s so creative and innovative!!
Forreal, every comment in this animatic about his looks had me thinking "but he looks so cute, look at the eyelashes on his oval eyes"
It's his eyes, in the original he has very vertical and narrow eyes, in this his eyes are very big, open and round
Peak shape theory. He's all round and stuff which means he looks friendlier
He has glasses now
4:56 wow, they're really just listing off all the ways Disney likes to kill off its baddies xD
yes, they are
(it's from a musical made by a group not affiliated w disney and it's free on yt, if you're interested just look up Twisted: The Untold Story Of a Royal Vizier)
They even mentioned falling from a Clock, that's an awesome reference to an underrated film.
@@TheSpectator7 agreed, Great Mouse Detective is severely underrated
Its cool, because shrerezades stories talk about the villains, so the world twisted exists in actually makes sense to reference it
this is GORGEOUS also it's so weird seeing this with normal Jafar and not Dylan Saunders
For real the face and the voice don’t match, but somehow they do
I am in awe. This is beautiful. The characters, the shape language, the flow, Robert Manion. You captured the man’s essence! I especially love how broad and sincere the townspeople’s smiles are, it adds a creepiness that isn’t in the live performance. This is astounding, amazing work.
I agree with robert having his own point in your description
A lot of the deaths they desire for that one guy they hate for almost no reason, Are a lot of deaths in Disney Movies I assume!
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 yup! the sailing ship is Ursula, the jungle vines is that guy from Tarzan, and falling from a castle, a clock and a cliff are Gaston, Frolo and the Evil Queen
@@LoonyTunes The clock is Professor Ratigan. Frolo fell from a gargoyle IIRC.
@@LoonyTunes And "eaten by hyenas" is Scar.
sigh... but no one remembers achmed
But seriously, this is amazing. I love how they're all wearing fake smiles until they crack ever so slightly, getting confused by the dancing at first and getting dizzy, that random guy pushing Jafar to the ground just because. I love it all. It truly captures the heart of the musical itself as well as the song, while still having its own twist
who?
@@smolghostdog6756 the tiger fucker
@@ezelfrancisco1349 ah, the one whose ass was eaten by a tiger, strange fellow
hE fUCkEd A tIGeR!
@@temtem9255 well, more specifically a tiger fucked him
Everyone insisting Ja'far is ugly when he's literally the cutest muffin in all the land.
Well his is as handsome as he’s kind, so it makes sense.
1. The energy in this is very reminiscent of the Disney renaissance.
2. I really like that Jafar looked more like the 1992 version but he somehow exudes Dylan Saunders
3. I really like that every other background character looks like what they’re representing, but the Robert Manion character looks and moves exactly like Robert Manion
4. The ending is so good, especially when Jafar is looking up while everyone is on what I assume is a possibly unstable platform, then he gets shoved.
If this is how good Dream A Little Harder is, then one can only imagine how good the other animatics will be
Honestly I love how yellow drew the main singing girl, I feel like her essence was captured perfectly.
"I want to be a cat!"
"What?"
"FUCK YOU!"
That part kills me, bro.
robert's citizen is 90% legs and i enjoy that far too much, excellent job
Jafar: *Being one of my favorite Disney Villains*
Me: dAnG- They REALLY be throwin shade on my boi here.
You should watch the musical if you haven't already!
Have you watched it yet?
these designs?? incredible. somehow everyone looks just like the canon show costumes but also like they were streamlines and refined into the ideal animated background character for this particular greek chorus. the end with the pointing fingers slowly going down and then becoming the bird... genius
This one song has made me not only think from Jafars perspective but also made him my favourite charcter in Aladdin amazing job!
You should go watch twisted from starkid
That kind of is the entire point of the musical Twisted. You should watch it.
I kind of like to think this is some kind of alternate reality where are the roles are reversed, but he still seen as “The Villain”.
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 that is EXACTLY what Twisted is (well actually Twisted implies that the story we were told is a lie but still this is basically it)
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 the whole musical is free to watch on RUclips. It's called twisted.
"And why is everyone in the kingdom white!?"
*awkward pause*
"Jafar"
@@jakoblent4694What did he do? It's not his fault everyone in the kingdom is white! They're still in the process of animating this so they haven't added color yet!
He did like the 2D department so they not being there is his fault@@pancakecookie5353
I love how all of the characters are either disney characters, original creations, or ʀᴏʙᴇʀᴛ ᴍᴀɴɪᴏɴ
How do you do the weird font?
It took a sec to adjust to hearing this as like, cleaned up vocals, instead of having the background chatter from a theater audience, but damn this is awesome!
I think it’s the album recording
@@giselle9230 yeah it is
They made an ost
I don't believe how great of an animatic this is! You could even say...
_This is all you fault, Ja'far-_
*NÃÃÃÃÃOOOOOOO*
Yes, you’re right, Captain
@@ezelfrancisco1349Captain!? Don't you mean... princess? 😡
Well, excuse me, Princess@@abreakfastfaceproduction2598
I can TELL that Robert Manion character is Robert Manion by the art, and that's amazing.
The only thing that i prefer from the original play is how Jafar was still smiling through people's weird grievances even though they were unrealistic
If you're going to do another one of these, I hope it's either the twisted song or the achmed one
Yes I need to see achmed in this style
Please please let it be achmed
Omg the twisted song yess
I’d watch a Twisted animated movie in this art style!
Who’s Achmed?
Oh I gotta know what your designs for the other major characters look like
Probably like the movie
@@Quackervoltz this is a song from a full musical that is not affiliated w disney and the designs (esp aladdin's) don't fully match plus there's plenty characters not from the cartoon
@@Quackervoltz plus Twisted came out way before the movie
@@mel-burnes Twisted came out in 2013
@@Quackervoltz yes? that was b4 the *movie*
Dang, seeing it animated like this, this is basically the equivalent of highschool bullying. Like, all the kids just have one kid they pick on because they don't like him/her. You did an amazing job animating it! Wonderful work! :D
You feel so bad for Jafar, and then you find out this happens because he got a role in local government, and you're like... oh. Yeah. That'd do it.
I hate how the villagers are technically correct as they did nothing and in the end it all worked out and Jafar disappeared.
the worst thing about this is that Jaime doesn't throw her baby after she asks why it always cries like they do in the show. because I love that so much
This is so good
Thank you!!
CLAUDIAAA
Oh hey it’s Claudia
@@bumblebeeproductions1673 Why do I see you everywhere?
@@yellow-py you know,
It’s kind of messed up that their all wishing for Jafar’s horrifying and gruesome death right in front of him! (at least in this version of the story.)
I never realized how wholesome Jafar looks when not being 'Evil'
I love it when Jafar in Twisted looks like his cannon counterpart
Me too
Its like my fifth time watching this today when I notice that the "violent deaths" the people are singing about are all deaths of actual disney villains.
Skewered by a Sailing Ship - Ursula
Strangled by vines - The Hunter from Tarzan (I am sorry I do not know his name)
Eaten by Hyenas - Scar
Fallen from a Castle - Gaston
Those are just the ones I remember. Its just a really cool detail from the song to add those
Clayton
Ratigan fell off a clock
The other two falling deaths are also Disney villains
Clock- ratigan (i tried idk if thats how his name is spelled
Cliff- the evil queen
1:33 the townsfolk were *this* close to beating the shit out of Jafar before she intervened
I love how Rob's just always trying to barge in on someone else's moment
I just adore how so much personality shines through the direction of these characters. They're more than just caricatures of the actors in the play, and actually have their personalities expressed through their designs and body language. The best example is the villager who preaches the "Dream a little harder" shpiel. She looks like the stereotypical beautiful Disney character, who constantly moves with kind and careful movements. Not only does it fit with the overall point of the song itself, but it also adds more to the joke. Nicely done.
Seeing this opening number be put in an actual environment like this makes me want to have a fully animated or movie production of Twisted. That is to also say that this is amazing!
It would be a prime collaboration project. A ton of different creators each in charge of different scenes recreating the whole play
wow this is so cool!
I'm here from ur channel 🤠
It's you!!!
robert doing a twirl across the screen at 3:30 make me cackle thank you
That one lady: "Keep your fat face-"
Jafar's face: *literally a goddamn triangle*
Using the actual choreography from the musical in parts of this is really really cool.
each character design uses such good shapes, especially with how angular Jafar is to make him feel extra different from the townsfolk. all of the facial expressions were hilariously cute while still being super mean, you captured the energy of the musical so well. the imagery of people standing on boxes just to sing about how much they hate this one guy will stick in my brain for the next couple weeks. one more thing is just robert manion. you did it. you made the perfect cartoon design of him
"Oh so you think you're better than me just cause you can read?" kills me every single time. This is great!
" WHY IS EVERYONE IN THE KINGDOM WHIIIIIITE?!"
I didn't expect that.
I’ve always loved how it feels like Jafar is the only one staying to a script and everyone else is just doing their own thing 😭
I never thought I'd actually feel sorry for Jafar like Jesus Christ
If you think that’s weird enough, wait till you see what this musical did to Aladdin. They made him into the sleaziest slime ball that you could ever imagine.
@@EditedAF987 to be fair I kinda already thought that way about him I mean he did try and gaslight jasmine
@@demonteclair5013 yeah, the musical definitely highlights that predatory side of him a lot more. Here’s a little compilation of his scenes if you want get a taste (although beware spoilers): ruclips.net/video/tumIgDEhW4s/видео.html
Gosh the animatic hit me hard, especially at the end. Compared to the live, Jafar at least put on a 'happy face'. But here, he's even shoved, and you could see the fear and sadness in his eyes when he does. Also, Robert Manion's character here looks especially evil too like holy crap!
YELLOW CAN I LIKE SHAKE YOUR HAND??? BECAUSE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING ME THIS MUSICAL I AM DYING IT IS SO PRECIOUS
The fact that their ideology of dreaming and wishing worked out in the end makes it that much better; Jafar didn't believe in wishes, but through his own actions, he inadvertently granted these peoples'.
Can’t really blame some of the “evil villains” as they just been misunderstood, broken, and such.
There is literally a song in the musical about this just search “Twisted
@@joshuatartar2731 yeah I know, but I never really got to finish lol so oof...
@@LordhelpMe0_0 please finish it the ending is great
@@joshuatartar2731 I will it’s just that my procrastination is getting me but I promise and respond back!
@@LordhelpMe0_0 I procrastinate by watching this lol.
If Jafar was a Clone high student:
But seriously I love your art style!
YES!
I feel like he would be the guidance counselor or something though. Can’t imagine him as a actual student.
@@charteon9092 Fair.
That sounds like the beginning of a spin-off where all the Disney villains are social outcasts in school (ie nerds, goths, etc) and all the Disney heroes are popular jerks/jocks.
The 25 dislikes is Prince Achmed and his multiple alt accounts sad because no one remembers him.
1:11
I gibb dis 0/10, the mother doesn't throw her baby away only for Jafar to return it later
(Pretty Excellent animation, hope for more some day).
"whistle while you swallow a spoon full of sugar, and your wish will become true upon a star!" Is the best lind in this whole show, *and that is saying something*
Your style never ceases to amaze me!! You can pack so much emotion into their faces and im all for it
As someone who got bullied throughout all my years of school (kindergarten, primary, middle, high school) because of my body, the line "I hear the people whisper as I walk about the streets, I know they call me "ugly old jafar"" hit a little too hard.
I'd never heard of Twisted before... I'm so glad you opened my eyes to this perfection!
It's really good
It’s on Starkid’s RUclips channel, high-quality and free
Iago's eyes were truly soul piercing.
"why is everyone in kingdom white?" has a whole new meaning when the characters are drawn in black and white
Missed opportunity to have the baby also flip Jafar off
Also god this is amazing in like every way
jafar looks so friend-shaped here i love it
Here goes yellow making everyone look cute again
4:40 I JUST FUCKING CACKLED that line gets me everytime
this video is such a phenomenon oml I love it so much
4:35 I need six eggs
Jafar: Why not buy some?
THEY'RE TOO EXPENSIVE!!!!!
5:03 how did i JUST now notice rewatching this and the full musical that these are all ways OTHER disney villains died
Lol, the song is so inspiring and upbeat but it basically boils down to "we hate jafar simply because he's not conventionally attractive or whatever, oh and all our problems are his fault!" Seriously, this parody musical deserves more recognition. The fact that it also parodies the opening song of Beauty and the Beast is even more funny!😂
THE SHAPES IN THIS VIDEO ARE SO SO GOOD. SO DYNAMIC AND THE CHARACTER DESIGNS HAVE UNIQUE SILHOUETTES AND THIS IS JUST SO STYLIZED I LOVE IT SO MUCH. A SHAME THE KINGDOMS 2DS WAS OUTLAWED TSK TSK
As easy as it was for me to think of Dylan Saunders as a good guy, still threw me off to see a wholesome smile on the animated Jafar’s face lol. If you ever do Twisted (like the song), I’d love to watch that one too!
You likely won’t make any more since I can only assume this took forever to make (and it was worth it so much!! This turned out fantastic and I’m more then happy with just this!!) but No one remembers Achmed would make an amazing cartoon
I would give my left arm for an animated Twisted.
This is just a *masterpiece* and no one will tell me otherwise
1:27
omg why is the baby so angry lmao 💀
revisiting this awesome piece of art and finally noticing that in the final frame, all the townspeople are giving jafar the bird - great stuff!
I love how you animated and designed Jafar to be so sweet and kind in his facial expressions, it came out great, especially how the staff looks like ' W '
🥺
Ok but making this in 2 months is super impressive. It would honestly take me like a year and a half to make something half as good as this.
I legit just watched this musical for the first time wh-
I've known both yellow-py and twisted for a while and I can't think of an animator that could fit this so well. I really like how it turned out. Great Work!
i love how the parrot is drawn!! so cute
seeing Starkid getting some love is great, i don't see it a lot
I’m so glad people are giving this musical the attention and content it deserves!! I love this!
You can clearly tell this was made by a professional storyboard artist, it's soo good
How did you manage to capture Roberts energy so perfectly??
This was so amazing! I NEED the whole musical animated like this. Can you imagine what this person could do with Achmed?
Jifar was reading Wicked! That was the best reference lol.
It's so nice to see Twisted getting more love and recognition recently!
I love how lauren's character is a literal tiny child lmao
Okay but can we all agree we need Abdul choking on sh*t because that entire interaction is gold
If you're going to animate the _Twisted_ song, the other "villains" could be ghosts or mirages who'd appear when Jafar flees the city and is in the desert or something.
3:30 hot chocolate boi vibes
I have very low blood sugar
