    the moment where he pulls out the gun and because it’s in the foreground it looks like a rifle really managed to evoke the parallel scenes in the stage show, with his father’s firing squad aiming rifles at the rest of the family. I cried, I got chills, this is incredible !!!

    This video proves that they should start making animated adaptations of Broadway shows. there's been plenty of animated movies (like Anastasia) turned into musicals, but I'm surprised there isn't anything the other way around. A lot of musicals could work as an animated movie like Cats (Steven Spielberg was even working on one before it was scrapped), Dear Evan Hansen, Jekyll and Hyde, etc.

    The use of their reflections was just * chef's kiss * When Gleb turned and saw his bloody face in the window? When Anya looked like little Anastasia? Ooooof! I like how you made Gleb more visibly nervous about his decision and Anya more fierce about it, if that makes sense... It's an entirely different medium than theatre and you really used it to the max with the close ups (Anya's hand!) and the stylization of their "journey to the past". I really really really liked this! Amazing job 💜

      When i heard him singing “a revolution is a simple thing” it kind of felt like he meant that “a revolution is inevitable, a simple consequence of the Tsar’s poor leadership” considering how things were going in Russia that time imo. People were suffering from poverty, and then Nikolai II just went forcing them to fight in a meaningless war which did no good to the country.

      Cheeky The Monkey thanks so much for your enthusiasm!! Looking back, the animated movie is very unique and good! But it was bogged down by expectations of being like a Disney movie. It worked best as a historical drama and that’s what I tried to do by drawing from both the whimsy of the movie and the historical grounding of the broadway musical.

    Tatiana’s on the right. She has darker hair than the rest of her sisters, and also her hair is up like Olga’s while Maria’s and Anastasia’s were always worn down. Olga is on the far right, her hair is also up but it’s much lighter than her sister’s. Next to her is Maria, she has dark hair like Tatiana and if you look close enough you can sure what look like a bow in her hair. This is because she often had ribbons and bows in her hair during pictures.

    So I just discovered the musical a week ago after watching the animated movie with a friend and I love this song/scene. I've probably rewatched your animation like 100 times because it is so good at conveying the feelings from the music!

      I’m flattered! If there’s an animated film of the Broadway musical, that would be absolutely amazing! (But I don’t think I would have the capacity to adapt a 2-hr musical into an animated film haha) thanks so much for watching!!!

      @KwanJan12  4 года назад +1

      Thanks! It took me so much time figuring out the space and the flow. If you’ve noticed for most of the short, Anya stayed on the left and Gleb stayed on the right. Only a few times would they cross over but the camera would fix itself to maintain the character’s positions.

    This was absolutely spectacular! I never would've imagined anybody making a fully animated sequence like this for a Broadway song. And I've seen many animatics. Granted, the only downside that I could find in this would be that there could've been more expression in the two characters. But besides that, you did an amazing job with this! Applause to you my friend! 😊👍

      It would be amazing if done right but most of the recent Broadway->Live Action movies have been subpar. The only one that I love and have basically no complaints about is the 2021 West Side Story which makes me wonder: a Steven Spielberg Anastasia?? That would be amazing. And if they did it soon they could cast some of the same actors.
