Welcome, ROTTMNT-lovers and otherwise, to my long-awaited Rise Raph Tribute!! 🎉❤️🐢😄 (ok, maybe not ‘long-awaited’ for most of you, but this project idea has been in my head for MONTHS PEOPLE!!) I very much enjoyed fitting events from the show into the flow of Raph’s story with this song (which is absolutely freaking perfect for him, right??!), as well as diving into some head canons of my own. 😉⬇️ One of my biggest ROTTMNT head canons is that Raph has some form of general anxiety disorder. This is something I deal with myself, and I just feel like I see a lot of my own symptoms in Raph. I imagine he hid away from his brothers when he cried as a kid so as not to make them feel worried like he did when they cried. I also included nightmares of him losing his brothers as well as hints towards the general idea that he felt he’s ’not enough’ for them. At the very least, we all know he had a tough time letting go of the need to fix everything by himself, which is also my source of anxiety. I set very high standards for myself, expecting to handle everything to 110% quality all the time. When I make a mistake, I get extremely frustrated, almost like I’m ‘in disbelief of my own incompetence.’ For a long time, I didn’t even know this about myself until God was able to open my eyes to how I was failing to give myself grace. I have since grown in my journey with my anxiety, and I have God and many others to thank for that. All of this to say, I see myself in Raph in SO many ways. We’re both oldest siblings, we both have youthful/playful personalities, we’re both happy to stop everything to help someone, and we both struggle with needing to handle our anxiety on our own. The message of this animatic that I hope to portray is that strength isn’t about your ability to handle everything on your own, but instead it’s a measure of how far you’re willing to go to accomplish your goals. Everyone needs help sometimes, everyone needs breaks sometimes, and being strong doesn’t mean ignoring your needs. It means not giving up on what matters. It’s acknowledging the people around you and knowing that you alone will never be strong enough. But that’s just it… anatawa hitori janai… you are never alone. ❤️ If you are someone who’s on the fence about pursuing a relationship with God, I implore you, read the gospels. Ask someone your questions about Christianity. Don’t be afraid to try learning what it’s all about. Understand that no Christian perfectly represents His love, as we are all broken people. He is the only One who does not let you down. I promise, He’s never left you. His name is written in your DNA and spoken through your breath, for he lovingly created each one of us. It is through art and being creative ourselves that we can taste a fraction of His joy in us. Seek Him, and He will ALWAYS answer. ✝️❤️ Whew, that’s a lot of words, haha! 😅 Hope you all enjoyed my animatic! It felt GREAT to finally animate again 🖌️✨
All I can say is thank you! In my little friend group, they say that I act a lot like Raph. So overtime, with watching the show, I have grown to love him. I also severe anxiety and depression. I see a lot of character traits through Raph. This really touched my heart ❤️. Thank you for all of the great work you do.
Raph binder a lot especially when it came to his family the ones he loved.s and to protect and I even come to sacrificing himself but let's just agree Raphie is the best big brother and the one that his family depends on 😁
that might be one of the most beautiful Raph tribute I have ever seen, it was honestly very touching and very well made, I had a lil tear in my eye :,) I relate to Raph a lot, and your animation really stricked my right to the heart, it's so amazing ! I can clearly see the tremendous amount of time, work, time and passion you put in this, very touching ^^
This animatic is amazing!! I also relate to Raph (mostly at school cus my class and the school itself if giving me a lot of anxiety) and I get really mad easily and I think of myself as a bad person, or a bad friend. This cheered me up a lot since my grandma died yesterday (I don’t have any grandparents left😔) and this just made me feel that I have great friends with me. (I teared up typing this) so I just wanna say that this animatic is ✨amazing✨. God be with everyone! 😊
Aw, wow! I’m sorry about your family, I recently lost my grandparents on one side too. I’m glad you are relying on God, he is the only source of true strength in something like this. I’m also glad my art could help too! I’ll be praying for you. 😊🙏❤️
Making a great animatic that highlights the struggles of my favorite turtle AND taking the chance to talk about how God has worked in your life? Way to go, Queen!
@@howtotrainyourdragonprince And I just want to say, I relate to several versions of Raphael on a few levels. I struggle with both anxiety and a temper, which is often fueled by feeling misunderstood and trying to juggle a lot at once. I’m still learning from God how to give it to Him.
Beautiful ❤️✨I love Rise Raph so much. This is a great and emotional tribute to him. Another song I think fit him is Surface pressure from Encanto. I would like to see a conversation between Raph and Luisa. I’m an older sibling too. And can be anxious sometimes. And I also have a playful and youthful personality. And wants to stop and help. Sorry you have to go through that stuff. Glad you’re doing better ❤Again beautiful video❤️❤️Anatawa hitori janai❤️
