I like the fact that there’s scenes where there’s almost nothing going on, like the gas station. It gives space for the audience to ponder and appreciate the art style and sound design.
The scenes also serve a deeper purpose. They establish the general mood and feel of the protagonist's life. Which is important as a contrast to her time at the daycare and with the ship.
2:13 this particular scene isn't that empty. When she looked at the stars it showed us she thinks about her family, so that part is quite sad or melancholic to think about it. But yeah, the art style is nice.
I love how you made the aliens drawn in marker and feel friendly and childlike. They felt artistically like they were sepetate from the world and it worked so well
I love how the title can refer to “mothership” as in being a mom - but also as “mothership” like an alien mothership/spacecraft. Great detail and amazing effort was put into this masterpiece of a project.
Adding to this, i think it also adds the fact that mothership is actually not much seen in the animation except for of course the kid's mom, but i think it has another sense too about the protagonist and her mother probably, or family in general, and how this one was raised to feel like she is different from others and want to escape this world

3:47 - I actually did this before. I drew this drawing of these girls drinking out of a river in a dessert. And my Nan had a dream of that exact drawing, it was so strange. EDIT: I have like so many notifications for this comment lolz, I’ve never had so many.
I’ll unfortunately admit that I had at first assumed this was a Pokémon fan animation about Brock’s childhood. I’m extremely glad I was surprised by this stunning animation, storyline, and overall project. The colors tell such a large story, each interaction is extremely heart-warming, and natural. Amazing job.
I relate so much to this film. I've never wanted children of my own, yet I'm good at connecting with kids, maybe I'm a little bit like a kid still inside lol. I treat every encounter with a kid in a way that I'm present and listen and talk with them, not to them. I find that enough to fullfill my need to interact with kids. I also feel that many of those who do have children, forget to be present for them on the daily basis, because they're so busy and tired and look at the world only from the "adult" perspective. I think that's a real tragedy.
@@izabellearmin5778 yeah, I think many people also make miscalculations (or don't even consider the whole subject when having children) to how much money, time and mental energy even just one kid needs to grow up to be a healthy adult. You know, it's a taboo to talk about the hardships of parenthood - especially if you're a woman - and on the contrast, media is filled with "happy parenting moments". That may skews young people's perception of the reality of parenthood. There's also sayings such as "your child will teach you how to be a parent", which will mislead you to think no (mental) preparation is needed. So people go having kids thinking that every problem will just magically solve themselves and they're just the passive passengers of "parenthood train". And, that after all love is the greatest power and no hardship will ever have effect on their parent-child bond. Only to end up finding out they've overestimated their resources and burn out and can't be the parent they wanted to be. There was a real need for some realism when it comes to discourse about having children. That's the only way we ensure that people would have children rather when they're practically and mentally ready to have them, and also ensure they have good enough safety net around themselves before having them. I mean, people have these things figured out when having puppies, but somehow the same discourse is not encouraged when you're planning such a huge life changing decision as having children.
Because English isn’t my mother tongue, and because I am super sleepy, my brain first read the title as “mother-ship”, like being a mother, and/or combination of “mother” and “friendship”. It wan’t until the ending card, where I realized it (also) referred to an alien mothership. That is so clever!
so so beautiful and a lovely way of storytelling! i really love your character designs and touching upon on not belonging on earth is such an interesting concept! amazing work
This made me cry due to the fact I’ve always felt like an alien when everyone around me is so different, and always made me feel different. Everything I do looks foreign to everyone, and it feels like I don’t belong anywhere. Really stunning animation and amazing storyline. 👍
This gives me Bee and Puppycat vibes. The way the characters talk to each other like it's just a regular conversation and not a series of scripted dialog feels so authentic. The art style isn't very similar to Bee and Puppycat but I think that's a good thing. This type of 'genre' can be expressed in a lot of different styles and settings! What I'm trying to say is I like what you made and wish you luck on your art/animation.
this is genuinely so emotionally moving, i cried a little when they gave them the picture. gift giving is so meaningful in many ways and i think this certainly is one, showing how people can be connected in subtle ways is fond and endearing, and oddly enough; not shown as much as it deserves to be! genuinely stunning!
So many shorts are negative and dark these days. This one feels like a breath of fresh air. Thank you for sharing your fantastic imagination with us! ♥️
The big question is how did the little kid know what her dream aliens looked like? Is he psychic, or did it all actually happen and he witnessed all of it? I really appreciate all the work you put into making this, hopefully it will get recommended to more people soon.
@@eightball3454 or maybe the brain has recorded it as the next alien drawing will represent the fake memory of the dream. Because memories are just pieces of information stuck together
I remember around middle school or the beginning of high school thinking the exact same thing like, I didn’t belong on this planet because I was starting to question my own individualism or sense of being. Thank you for making this and reminding me of those times just to see how much I’ve grown from it. I recently became a father and can’t wait until I can have this kind of a conversation with my son
I mean the drawing as a metaphor for their connection, their similarities and what it admits about the more childlike aspects of her escapism, just great. I mean really fucking nice work, the style is well realized, it doesn't try to do too much but doesn't become visually boring. And the simple lines and pastel color give it a "children show" asthetic that really drives home your themes, especially when contrasted to the darker tones of the gas station.I really hope you keep making art.
This was really well made, not just in an artstyle perspective but also a storytelling perspective. Sometimes exploring simple concepts is enough to engage a viewer. Good job, I hope you get a good grade on this.
This is one of the most relatable things I've ever watched. Stargazing, feeling like I'm not "home"... Even one of the alien designs is super similar to something an alien I've imagined before for some reason. (the one that looks like an ameba) Anyway, amazing animation, super cute and comfy
Bro those gas prices must be good with how she paid them so quickly. Joking, LOL-- But that aside omg, this animation style is so sweet. I love it so much 😭
wow. maybe it is just the way this reminds me of how i felt watching shin chan or doraemon for the first time as a child in class 2 or 3, but this ~4.5 minute long cartoon made me feel so calm, at ease with what i am today. the everyday life shown here is so minimalistic yet so relatable down to the shopkeeper clicking away at the counter, down to the way the protag slowly closes her eye in a wink only to open it back when the mom arrives but still speaking for a second or two more... and the artstyle is so adorable. so, so, so well-done! would love to see more of this!
The pacing and story telling here was phenomenal, i was constantly engaged not knowing what direction the plot would follow. That one scene at the gas station was SOOO good for pacing.
I know the feeling of not belonging on Earth, it's a strange vacant one. This is so pretty and the sound is so perfectly matching the animation and aaaa!!!! So awesome!!!!
This looks great, I loved the mixed media and wacky, cute story. I’ve noticed a lot of new calarts animation this year, it’s so interesting and refreshing to watch! 😊
i was like " uh, the outer space beings, what an unexpected turn of event" and then it was a dream. Dammit. What a great story, im so happy to have seen it
Why the heck is this underrated?! This absolutely reminds me of cartoons I used to watch as a kid. I applaud for your amazing animation and storytelling.👏🏾👏🏾
The excessive silence make this animated short so beautiful. You're able to piece together that the woman never had parents with such little details. This whole thing is beautiful.
This is incredible!! I love the way you animate and the style of this film is so comfy and amazing. I can't wait to see more work from you in the future!
The way you animated this is so pleasing to my mind. The colors are gorgeous and the shading is just amazing. I just loved the style over all and the story was very wholesome. As a kid who was seen as weird to everyone in my life, I felt a connection to this.
this is so adorable!! also I love the pun name-at first I thought this would be about being a mom, but the story went it a totally different direction :0)) don't know if that was intentional or not but I thought that was cool
This animation is amazing!! Your style is also so pretty, it reminds me of a memory. Also these sounds at 2:50 are perfect. Too bad it isnt a full song
I’m loving the art and animation style of this, it’s so aesthetically pleasing, also the fact that the mothership and aliens in the dream look like children’s drawings are such a good detail
I feel like as kids having an adult that can relate to us can make us feel less alien and less alone. And alternately kids can make adults feel less alien and less alone too. There’s a special relationship between adult and child that’s illustrated here. Especially when she smiles when looking at the kids painting, the matching aliens, synchronicity, a secret acknowledgment, relatedness and knowing. The binding force of imagination!
This video makes me incredibly happy for no reason. I love the charming touches in the art style and the fact that her alien mothership is a sail boat. Very adorable and comforting video 💜
Dang. This made me cry and remember how I felt like I had a mothership when I was a kid. My mom told me she had a dream of me before I was born, that I was living in space and had blue skin before I was brought to her.
I really connected to this, it is beautiful. The smile at the end made me cry. I've been in therapy for years, and its amazing how this animation says so much without having to show what the character has gone through. After trauma its hard to open up and be vulnerable, but she shared her experience with this kid and he listened and made her a picture... I wasnt expecting have all these emotions when I clicked this video, lol! This reminds me why I love animation so much. I hope I can make art like this someday.
I definitely can relate to the woman in this animation. Not feeling like you belong, feeling alien. But for me it's not necessarily about the world around me, but my generation. I really love the message here!
I used to think I didn't belong in this planet too, doing the exact same thing, looking at the stars for long periods of time when in need. No one ever came, but that doesn't stop me from looking at them every so often. I come back to this animation constantly too. Thank you.
Hi Asia, I really really really love this animation, so wholesome. I like your style too. Keep making amazing animations, and hope to see more of these on your channel. I'm a huge fan of one of your seniors, Mewtrippled and I wish you to be as successful as her or more
I don't know why I consider this immensely beautiful or why it brought tears to my eyes and a smile on my face, but I can say this is an amazing project. 4 minutes of absurd beauty, meaning, and good animation is rare to find.
This makes me feel nostalgic I love it so much Honestly this kinda inspires me to wanna make my animations more simple with the backgrounds and the look. Yours looks so clean
this makes me so happy the colors, the art style, it’s so pretty i love the child like innocence feeling of this, and this little film isn’t sad, it’s happy and makes me comfortable
Reminds me of adventure time, it was always about playing around, but there were moments where characters got really deep and emotional, while being so easy to relate to at the same time.
AAAAAA!! OMG I LOVED THIS SHORT FILM! The art style is so beautiful and simple, and don’t even make me started in the shape language of this video! The story is really nice, the art amazing and the voice acting really good. I’m so happy that this film got that many views in only 12 days, and I hope it gets more eventually! I’m for sure putting some scenes in my inspiration board (if that’s cool to you..)!
I LOVE THIS ANIMATION SO MUCH and i can actually relate to the main character a lot in this when she said she didnt feel like she belonged on earth and stuff cuz i honestly feel alien as well! this is def one of my favorite videos.
This is a such an unexpected treat from my recommendations. This is a neat and endearing animation about how vivid imagination isn’t only for children.

Animating a child character with noticeable smear-frames is one of my favourite things to see in media. It's genius.

I wasnt expecting have all these emotions when I clicked this video, lol! This reminds me why I love animation so much. I hope I can make art like this someday.
I definitely can relate to the woman in this animation. Not feeling like you belong, feeling alien. But for me it's not necessarily about the world around me, but my generation. I really love the message here!

I did the same as her💀😭
I used to think I didn't belong in this planet too, doing the exact same thing, looking at the stars for long periods of time when in need. No one ever came, but that doesn't stop me from looking at them every so often. I come back to this animation constantly too. Thank you.
Hi Asia, I really really really love this animation, so wholesome. I like your style too. Keep making amazing animations, and hope to see more of these on your channel. I'm a huge fan of one of your seniors, Mewtrippled and I wish you to be as successful as her or more
Such a great animator
I like all the other styles like the cartoon style for example it's just a fun little animation, keep up the work
What a beautiful story. The style also tooke me back to when i was about that kids age. Growing up watching Crayon shin-chan
I don't know why I consider this immensely beautiful or why it brought tears to my eyes and a smile on my face, but I can say this is an amazing project. 4 minutes of absurd beauty, meaning, and good animation is rare to find.
wait-
I'm actually gonna cry-
Needs so much more love, this is so amazing!! 😭
This makes me feel nostalgic I love it so much
Honestly this kinda inspires me to wanna make my animations more simple with the backgrounds and the look. Yours looks so clean
The animation was already good but the story itself is very capturing
I thought this was going to be a Pokémon parodie, cause the child on the thumbnail reminded me of Brock!
Nice short story anyways🌜✨
These are the type of animations that get 10 Million views in the future.
this makes me so happy
the colors, the art style, it’s so pretty
i love the child like innocence feeling of this, and this little film isn’t sad, it’s happy and makes me comfortable
This is the cutest thing I've seen today, and that's saying something considering how cute my dog is.
Reminds me of adventure time, it was always about playing around, but there were moments where characters got really deep and emotional, while being so easy to relate to at the same time.
AAAAAA!! OMG I LOVED THIS SHORT FILM! The art style is so beautiful and simple, and don’t even make me started in the shape language of this video! The story is really nice, the art amazing and the voice acting really good. I’m so happy that this film got that many views in only 12 days, and I hope it gets more eventually! I’m for sure putting some scenes in my inspiration board (if that’s cool to you..)!
I LOVE THIS ANIMATION SO MUCH and i can actually relate to the main character a lot in this when she said she didnt feel like she belonged on earth and stuff cuz i honestly feel alien as well! this is def one of my favorite videos.
This is a such an unexpected treat from my recommendations. This is a neat and endearing animation about how vivid imagination isn’t only for children.
Definitely an underrated short film here, enjoyed ever second of those 4 minutes! Amazing job and I can’t wait to see what other animations you make!
