I had to look at the League of Legends Wiki for this, see the sacrifices I make for art?!?
Super excited to finally be able to share this, I've been chipping away at this project for 9 months!
SOME CONTEXT:
The basic premise is that Jayce finds out about Viktor's manslaughter adventure with Sky and has reluctantly to come arrest him. Viktor, however, resists arrest, embraces the hexcore, and escapes to Zaun, causing millions in property damage along the way.
Also a lot of creative liberties have been taken (notably the layout of Piltover and the office/lab layout). Many elements were adjusted to fit the song.
Music: Defying Gravity cover by @Caleb Hyles
• Defying Gravity - Cale...
Go give this guy some love, he had the option to sing an octave lower, politely declined, and absolutely destroyed every last part of this song.

This is a mix between predictions for Viktor's arc in arcane season 2, using character design to connect Arcane Viktor to League Viktor, and me wanting to tell a story with this song.
It takes place sometime after season 1 (don't ask me what happens with Jinx's bomb, IDK what is going to happen with that so I just ignored it).
FAQ:
-What is that triangle thing that makes him float?
I made it up. It's supposed to be a mini version of their initial hextech device that made them float, combined with the concept of the "Gravity Trap" thing that he has in league (but like... reversed).
Also I had to have him "Defy Gravity" SOMEWHERE in there.
-Why is he lasering everything?
Because he deserves to have a bit of fun with the laser.
Anyways, I'll see y'all around!
(spot the tangled the series reference LOL) Кино
2:24 The detail of Jayce instantly reacting to viktor almost falling is such a great touch to show their dynamic and how it's changing.
The mask on the desk! The cane opening up and holding the Hexcore, the back brace now holding the HexClaw, Viktors lil swirls and movements and Jayce being shocked at the Shimmer hand and him walking, THE FLOATING SCENE, DAMN MY HEART. Also oh my goodness the chase scene!!! This whole thing is so good!!!
Oh my god how is this not completely viral this is actually so amazing, it fits the characters so perfectly, the animation is BEAUTIFUL, the STORYTELLING, just everything about this is so perfect oh my god this is freaking amazing good job.
This is incredible. I absolutely love the fusion of Viktor's Arcane and League designs, especially how you used his cane and the hexcore to create a staff. Amazing idea.
Aaa thank you!! That idea is what fueled this entire animatic LOL
I'M LITERALLY CRYING, LIKE CRAZY. MY LOVE FOR ARCANE GREW BACK AND NOW I'M GOING REWATCH THE WHOLE DAMN THING 5 TIMES. MY BOY. MY BOYS BUT ESPECIALLY VIKTOR. JAYCE STILL HELPING VIK WHEN HE TRIPPED WHILE CARRYING THE MECH, I'M GONNA OWNSOAJAOSSOSNS. THEN THEY START FLYING????? IT'S JUST WHEN THEY FIRST WORKED ON THE PROJECT. THIS STORYBOARD TOUCHED MY HEART AND THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN WHAT I ANTICIPATED. THIS SONG RESONATES WITH THEIR DYNAMIC SO MUCH AND YOU MADE IT LOOK LIKE THIS IS WHERE THE SONG ORIGINATES. I LOVE THIS AND I LOVE YOU. YOU DID AMAZINGGGGGG 😭💕💕💕
AAAAAAAAGH THANK YOU!!! 😊 🥰 I was hoping someone would like the detail with jayce helping viktor :D
This is incredible!!!!!!!!!! How much work flowed into this, I am so stunned! The angles, the pacing, the emotional ride! It made me so happy to see them both float again but for sure Jayce wouldn't go with him, yet he fought for him, loved that. But the big final of Viktor escaping Piltover and his parcour and the use of the Hexclaw? Epic. It was such a worthy final wow!
THIS IS SO GOOD WTH
Literally made me tear up! (My Jayvik heart!)
Jayce accepting Viktor and Viktor choosing/having to leave Piltover and returning to the Undercity/Zaun is -chefs kiss-
The animated action sequence when Viktor starts to run away???? AMAZING. HOW.
The closing of the animatic with Viktor closing the mask over his face!
This entire thing is UNBELIEVABLE
Screaming, crying and throwing up 😭
HOLY HECK ITS FINALLY HERE! Amazing work Hawper 🎉💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
AAAAAAH HAWP HAWP HAWP IT'S - SO GOOD? LIKE, THE STICK/CANE/THING ON THAT BEAT
AND THE EMOTIONS??? AND THEM WORKING TOGETHER? AND THE FLOATING DURING THE DUET SECTION IS SO PERFECT???? LIKE THEY LOOK SO *GAH*
AND AND AND THE RUN SEQUENCE????? AND AND AND THE PARKOUR/ROOFTOP SECTION IS SO *COOL* AND AND AND THE CHOICES IN COLORATION ON THOSE SPECIFIC PARTS AND THE MASK (AND THE LITTLE DANCING HAWP AT THE END????? GOLDEN)
I'm on my fourth or fifth rewatch. No regrets.
OH WOW HAWP!!!! This was amazing, seeing all those little bits of this coming together did not prepare me for how freaking amazing this was. I can see all the effort you put into this, it's really stunning!!!!
HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE ATTENTIONS WHAT?!?!?!?!? literally insnae. i am in love
Yes! I would love to see this happen. Funny thing was I thought the song Defying Gravity was a good fit for Viktor,
That last half was so good!!
This is so cool. And some of the coolest animatics I've been seeing lately are from amazing covers by Caleb Hyles of amazing songs, so that's interesting!
there's so many cool parts this is amazing
This has no right going this hard my god.
HELLO WOAH when the weapon activated holy SHIT that is so cool!!!! amazing shots and animation holy shit!!!!!!!!
this is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! there's so many things I want to comment on from the camera movements to the smoothness of Viktor's escape but my favorite little thing is at 3:10 when its just Jayce and the hexgates through the window, then later its Viktor with the bridge through the window and AUGH THE CINEMATOGRAPHY OF THIS ANIMATIC !! it's amazing! subbed
YES the windows are sYmBoLiSm!! >:D
Absolutely in love holy crap I can tell how much effort went into all of this and I love how beautifully it all came together this fits them both really really well that ending is just absolutely beautiful too I see it being a part of the show with the explosions and stuff honestly just 🛐
Omg the details and perspectives and angles????? This is insanely amazing
this was incredible, keep up the amazing work! loved it from start to finish, want to rewatch. WOOWWW this was amazing
OK? WOW? OMG??? (I can’t believe I saved this video to watch it later after I finish watching Arcane Lol) I’m blown away. I was crying at the part where Viktor and Jayce were flying with the hex crystal like back in Act 1, what a great call-back and OMG the stellar camera work and choreography when Viktor fell out of the window and running though Piltover was so fluid it sends chills to my spine. This deserves more recognition you did a wonderful job you should be so proud! (I honestly thought Jayce and Vik were gonna hug at “I hope you’re happy in the end” Lol)
HOLY SHIT@Caleb Hyles pure delight!!!! My choral kids brought this video to my attention and want to do a Broadway backwards. They are working to change the lyrics and I hope to let you know if it will be preformed.
I NEEDED THIS SO MUCH, thank you for making this, it's so well done and eeeee 👏
