- HEY GUYS UM
ok so story time, i started this animatic MONTHS ago, but i lost motivation to finish it because school and work were stressful and then the whole covid thing started, but now everything has settled so i forced myself to finish it, but i ended up having a lot of fun so thats why the quality of art gets better as time goes on. ALSO, i dont know if its clear just from watching, but adam/creature is not really in the courtroom, the pale glow around him and victor is meant to indicate that victor is imagining him there. ANYWAY ENJOY and STAY SAFE!!~~~

"Don't you think that clever of me Victor?" But all I hear is "Please love me Dad."
I agree with you somewhat but I feel like it's shown in later songs. But I do agree if where using the Creator and Creation thing that this was a call for attention and revenge.
To me it seems more like a “look what you’ve done.”
ADAM THIS NOT HOW TO COPE. YOU NEED AFFECTION AND A HOT MEAL.
"why is that? that children end up with parts that look like their parents?'
well, my young boy, let me tell you about the process of heredity...
i love the fact that the only two characters (monsters) that really know what happened are the ones that have more "realistic" eyes, it's like they can see more than everyone else
"So full of promise, full of wonder."
"Have you forgotten, so was I?"
And that's when I start crying. There's so much pain in the Creature's voice T__T
3:30- The point when Victor crossed from self absorbed jerk to irredeemable A-hole.
(Overly Sarcastic Productions analysis of Frankenstein.)
Also he was never a doctor. He was a college dropout.
Well to be fair would anyone really believe him if he said that the boy was killed by a monster that he reanimated? I feel like a lot of people misinterpret Victor as some uncaring a-hole. I view it as more as he’s over his head and doesn’t think anyone would believe him. Amen (Reprise) shows him realizing his mistake and asks the creature for forgiveness.
@@Alex_K221 have... have you read the book? He's a grade A asshole and an idiot. Even if he told the truth and no one believed him, it still would've cast doubt on this lady (can't remember her name) and put suspicion on him. And it was his fault.
Not to mention all the idiocy he did.
(Also, a lot of people believed him when he told the truth, and the few that didnt, did after only a little bit of proof, so I don't think that's an issue)
@@annjowolfe1561
Just curious what version of the book did you read? There was an 1818 version and an 1831 version. There are some minor changes in between (like changing Elizabeth from Victor’s cousin to an orphan the Frankenstein family adopted) the major difference Mary Shelly made was make Victor Frankenstein more of an asshole and jerk in the 1831 version. Hence this.
@@annjowolfe1561
I mention this because I read the 1818 version. It’s the only one I have. My point takes evidence from the musical itself but I feel it still stands.
I mean, Victor couldn't even some up with an excuse? Like he found William's dead body and showed Justine the locket? You know, for being the genius who found out the secret of ressurecting the dead, Victor has a pretty miniscule imagination.
That wouldn’t have worked as Victor had just arrived at Geneva and was accompanied with Clerval the whole time. Actually I believe he was told on the road that William was found dead so that wouldn’t have worked. At that point he was like several hours from Geneva and Justine was already found with the locket. He also recently recovered from a very hallucegeny fever(he does that a lot) raving about a monster he made so his words might not be taken seriously. Even so he should have told them bc it wouldn’t have hunted but he decided to save face and not even try to help.
The "who are you sir, do you know me?" hurts to listen to every time.
This animatic is beautiful, great job!
I knowwwwww it’s so cute and just-so sad when you know what’s coming
The initial singing part: ✨ _wholesome_ ✨
Me having read the book, waiting for everything to go down: 🙃
Out of curosity how different is the musical from the book?
@@caffeinatedpossum this musical is probably the best adaptation yet, but it’s still a little different.
In the book, Victor has two brothers (William and Ernest, who is the middle child). Instead of Henry dying trying to expose Victor’s experiments, he’s much more of a sunshiny character, and he dies on a trip to the UK with Victor after Victor abandons him temporarily to work on the bride. Also, Henry travels to Ingolstadt to go to college with Victor, and he isn’t present for Justine’s trial. It’s never stated how Creature was made, so there’s no convict in the book. Oh and Victor’s father dies. The book’s also much more homoerotic lol. It’s a good read, and I’d recommend it wholeheartedly.
Edit: I almost forgot! In the book, Justine pleads guilty out of fear of how the church would punish her otherwise. She’s also strikingly calm about it, and Elizabeth publicly defends her and is the one having an emotional breakdown throughout the chapter.
Clerval was the best.
Spoilers:
Frankenstiens’ monster killed him and threw him in to the sea in revenge for Victor killing his wife and throwing her corpse in to the sea. It was a whole plot
2:20 that transition was beautiful
2:39 I love how Williams head is glowing a bit, imo representing his innocence as a child compared to the dark monster
The fact the monster cried hurting William
victor: NO!!!!!
also victor: does nothing
Am I the only one who felt the pain in his voice when he asked William to play with him?
Frankenstein is a monster and he made life that was tortured and known only pain until the world made a monster in his image.
He just wants not to be hated and feared.
- but i know the hardest questions, beggin with why
-tell me how..
" goddman you kid i just said that they beggin with why "
I wonder why in the Musical version the Creature killed William
In the novel he killed him because William was really rude to him and adding insult to injury, was bragging about being a Frankenstein
But in the musical he is just a sweet kid that politely asks _Who are you sir, do you know me?_
I'm sure The Creature would've kidnap/adopted him, since he was craving for love at that point.
DragonSUNGod he wanted to make Victor feel the pain of losing a loved one like how he lost his blind friend when he killed him accidentally (which is also different from the book I think) but you’re right I think that makes more sense
I feel like the music made him alott sweeter so that the audience would feel more upset at his death and they wanted to show how close Justine was with him so that her death would hold an impact too
In the novel, the Creature actually admits on first seeing William: “. . .an idea seized me, that this little creature was unprejudiced, and had lived too short a time to have imbibed a horror of deformity."
Unfortunately, William's first response on seeing the Creature was:"Hideous monster! Let me go; My papa is a Syndic- he is M. Frankenstein- he would punish you!"
You can’t really blame the kid, he was just terrified because of how the monster treated him. The monster sees the kid playing, is seized with the idea to steal him from his family and raise him to be a son, and then grabbed him. The boy cries, “let me go, or I’ll tell my papa!” And the monster says “Child, you will never see your father again- listen to me.” And that’s when the kid started saying his father was “a syndic- he is M. Frankenstein- he will punish you!” In context, that wasn’t him bragging and being a jerk, that was him grasping for some way to scare off a kidnapper he thought might kill him.
And as soon as the monster heard the name “Frankenstein” he cries that the boy belongs to his enemy, and does kill him. Clapping his hands over the body, he announces that he has the power to hurt Frankenstein back for creating him. The poor kid... really didn’t provoke him into it, that much, I don’t know where that idea came from.
The kid was sweet in the book too. Maybe a little bit of a showoff about who he was, but he had no reason to think he shouldn't be proud of his family name. William was terrified; and the Monster (aka Adam) planning on "adopting" him is plain kidnapping and the kid reacted in a very reasonable way to being told he'd never see his family again.
I don't know I really don't think it would've mattered. William could've been sweet, or a total brat. The second he mentioned who he was related to, his fate was sealed.
0:30 *_Child casually pulls out sword_*
2:20 THAT TRANSITION HOLY SHIT MY JAW DROPPED......
ALSO UR DESIGNS FOR THE CREATUE , VICTOR AND HENRY ARE I M P E C C A B L E THIS IS SO GOOD DUDE
AAAA THANK YOU SO MUCH
The question "Why does God even care?" is extremely depressing in context.
Honestly it was a sad fate for William in the musical since we don't actually see and know what happened to him, rather than how it was explained in the book which caused his death. Love the transition when Justine is with William and all of a sudden she's being accused of murdering him. I also liked how you designed the creature (Adam), the stitch work, his height I also like how he sorta takes on Frankenstein's mannerisms, his wittiness is dark with a stunning intelligence.
Also he doesn't even look monstrous or ugly, he's just a man with stitches so when Justine refered to him as a "demon" I just don't see what the problem is, if his eyes were the only reason for him being ridiculed and judged then that's sad.
Other than that, this video, the transitioning, lighting and just the feel of bittersweet angst is beautiful
Can't blame her for thinking he was a demon how would you react if you saw some 8ft man with stitches and glowing yellow eyes? Especially in that time period? I know I would be freaking the fuck out
The book describes how hideous "The Creature " is, the eyes are just one of the more striking things in his appearance 😉
It's left ambiguous on what really makes the Creature "ugly", and honestly the description Victor gives in the novel of using the "most beautiful parts" or something to that effect, it sounds like the Creature honestly _could've_ been good-looking, not ugly, but that there was just something _off_ about how The Creature looked once it was up and moving around. Something in the monster's height, his gait, his open eyes, his every motion, perhaps, just doesn't look _right_ to people who see him, even if he looked as handsome as could be, but people are much more likely to distrust and reject, then welcome with open arms than we would like, especially back in earlier times.
EDIT: Looking it up a little more, apparently some of it was the basic fact he was clearly _stitched together_ from dead (and thus deathly pale) body parts (though the novel doesn't say that, this adaptation, and animatic goes with that so it applies), coupled with Victor apparently noting that his skin was somewhat translucent, meaning he and others could _see_ the arteries and muscles beneath, and that his eyes were _indeed_ strange to look at somehow, coupled with the above, apparently he really did look quite frightening. That said, Victor really did try to make him handsome, but didn't think through the rest of it.
I think its uncanny valley effect. Imagine seeing a dead body of a good looking man in motion, with stitches, unnatural skin tone and yellow glowy eyes. And yes, monster perhaps could be good looking sinse only the finest body parts were used.
Didn’t frankenstien’s monster get shot(and beaten but that was way before) sometime before ‘ meeting’ William? So he’s covered in blood. That could contribute
wow this is so good! im glad that this musical is finally getting more attention. :D
mE TOO!!
@@miasen caps lock on and you shifted on the first letter?
2:37 victor said it's my turn on the xbox!
(honestly tho this is absolutely stunning!!! the fluidity, the style, the pacing- i can't stop watching!)
Okay I still can't stop watching, and I need to add a thank you for having the creature on the verge of tears 90% of the time, which I have always firmly believed the best way to portray him, the best boy
When I tell you I simp over how Frankenstein looks in this animatic . . .
AAAAHHHHH
@@miasen 😩👌
It's accurate to the book.
You're not confusing Frankenstein with his monster are you? Because the monster has no name.
@@KingNazaru oops, yea, I meant the monster lol 😅
omg william is so cute
Ok but is that a freaking "You know I had to do it to 'em" at 2:59? You absolute madlad the whole animatic is fantastic and Creature responding like that to Victor's "Why did you do it?" is a cherry on top. Congrats, the feels in this one are strong. Creature's body language is pure perfection
Oh my fucking gosh it is
There are such fun details throughout this. Justine fumbling with the laundry just as she fumbles with William's question made me smile.. The visual shift in tone matches that of the music at 2:26. I love the similar framing of the locket and the noose both glowing and looming over Justine. The Creature's smug expression while Victor panics as 3:51 is excellent.
Plus, the affection between William and Justine is cute.
Great job!
AHH! thank you thank you!!!
Ok firstly how dare you- you drew him so cute and I-
Who’s cutting onions-
This song is the point that I start crying when listening to the musical because I love Justine and William. Especially when Justine says “can’t you tell, haven’t you known? I love you as If my own.” 😢
Also I love this art! Especially Adam!
Loved this! Especially Victor's panic at the end. The claustrophobic feeling of having that terrible secret and thinking he's responsible for his brother's death is something I remember from the book and you captured it wonderfully. William is also adorable.
FULL STOP. Was that baby Victor in that portrait???
Awesome, awesome job! Legit gasped at that transition to the courtroom. You are such a talented animator!
IT WAS BABY VICTOR HEHEHE THANK YOUUU
@@miasen JYGTCHFHGFHFDHFF WHAT A LITTLE DEVIL.
I have been on a Frankenstein binge, and needless to say, I've been obsessing over this musical. I am happy to see so many animatics that were shared on RUclips in the past calendar year. Thank you for sharing, it captures the innocence, guilt, and heartbreak throughout the song. You did a fantastic job!
the way you have done the eyes is amazing, all of the towns folk and William ect have more unreal eyes and more animation like eyes, where has victor and his creation have much more real eyes, proving they see the truth and they know the secrets to the deaths.
Bro, I usually never dare to leave any comments, but here there is just too much to say, this is so dynamic, so well composed, all the interactions between each character are so on point, this is just so great ;_;
THANK YOUU
These dynamics and these frames like dAMN-
Omigosh the EMOTIONS and that TRANSITION HOLY HECK - this was beautifully done (and oh gosh, the way you had the Creature taunting Victor in the courtroom oh wow, that was so good!) I loved it!!!
AAAH! You’ve returned with more beautiful ART! Oh gosh, where to start - Justine dropping the shirt that the beginning fit the audio PERFECTLY! Aw, and you really felt the bond between her and William! And oh gosh, the courtroom scene hits like a ton of bricks, great build up of tension! Stellar, stellar work all around!
Vvarx THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! i love your animatics so much also oh my gOD
[Justine]:
Master William, you have your mother’s eyes.
[William]:
Why is that? That children inherit parts that look like their parents?
[Justine]:
Well... perhaps some subjects are better left unexplored.
[William]:
But, Victor says that every question must be answered. And I agree
Tell me why does the breeze blow?
Why do both the flower and the weed grow?
Then tell me why do men fight wars?
Why does God even care?
Why does he listen to our prayers?
Doesn't he already know what we're praying for?
[Justine]:
Curious little boy, no wonder you're your father's joy
Now, not an educated girl am I
But I know the hardest questions begin with "why"
[William]:
Alright then
Tell me how do the birds go
And just how do they get along with bees so?
[Justine]:
How do you know when you're in love?
[William]:
Ugh
How do you know just who to trust?
How does justice get so just?
[Both]:
How do we deserve all the things we're dreaming of?
[William]:
Do I really look like my mother?
[Justine]:
You're as inquisitive as your brother
[William]:
Do you like being my nanny?
[Justine]:
It's a far more challenging job than many
[William]:
Why, Justine, do you tease me?
[Justine]:
I don't know, it seems to please me
William, can't you see through me by now?
Can't you tell, haven't you known?
I think of you as if my own
You've no greater champion than I
Just remember that I love you
And never question how, or if, or why
[Judge, spoken]:
Tell the court what happened next, Miss Moritz
[Creature, spoken]:
Another child of the Frankensteins
[Justine, spoken]:
We were playing a game. He ran off into the woods; I searched for him all night!
[Victor]:
Leave him be
He has not wronged you
[Creature]:
William, will you play with me?
[William]:
Who are you, sir?
Do you know me?
[Creature]:
I know too well
Your wretched family
[Man, spoken]:
Then how do you explain, woman, the bloody locket found on your person?
[Justine, spoken]:
I told you, I saw some kind of demon! IT is responsible, not I!
[Victor]:
Why did you do it?
Kill a child?
[Creature]:
Why did you leave me there to die?
[Victor]:
So full of promise
Full of wonder
[Creature]:
Have you forgotten that so was I?
[Justine, spoken]:
I am innocent! I swear it!
[Elizabeth]:
Victor no, I know that she loved that boy
[Creature]:
Another fair face who looked upon me only with revulsion
[Elizabeth]:
Heaven please, Justine's like a sister to us
[Creature]:
Was she only like me, one of my kind?
[Father]:
Victor, my God, how can this be so?
[Elizabeth]:
Victor, how? I know this can not be true
[Man]:
Somewhere there must be a witness!
[Elizabeth]:
There must be something you can say!
[Men]:
Someone knows the truth
[Elizabeth]:
Something you can do!
[Men]:
Who speaks for the child!
[Creature, spoken]:
I made sure the evidence would convict her of the boy's murder. Don't you think that clever of me, Victor?
[Justine]:
Why is this happening?
[Chorus]:
Why did you murder that boy?
[Father]:
Why my poor William?
[Chorus]:
Why is she here anymore?
[Henry]:
Why will no man speak the truth?
[Chorus]:
Why are you silent
While innocents suffer and pay with their lives?
[Victor]:
NO!
YOOOO this is STUNNING.. the movements, the characters, the ENDING.. I adore how you made the creature and the just!! everything!!! beautiful work!!!!
EE THANK YOU
This animatic is amazing. Your art style is beautiful. Love the part where Victor's family is in court begging for Victor to say something to prove Justine's innocence and how the creature is right behind him right about to choke Victor indicating that Victor is suffocating with emotions from all that's happening and the way he cried out in the end. It sounded like he wanted everything to end or like he wanted all this to be a bad dream. ✨100/10✨👏
It’s been a bit since you posted this but this animatic is so good. Through your expressions and the way they move you can really tell that Justine and William love each other and NOTHING BAD HAPPENS
yeah i love the part of the book where everyone is alive and happy :,-)
Everytime I see another frankenstien animatic pop up I get so excited because I know it's going to be phenomenal, and I'm pleased to say this went BEYOND anything I thought it could be!!!! Please keep drawing, this is so good!!
I love how you put her at William’s level (2:08). She makes sure to talk to him like a child and the body language here is great. This is my favorite song but it is always sad when the boy dies by the creature. Plus, William didn’t even know why he was dying, he knew nothing of Victor’s creation. Poor kid just wanted to chill with his nanny Justine.
EXCUSE ME CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THE CRUEL RUclips GODS HAVE ONLY GIEN THIS VIDEO 58 LIKES???????
Song: Get attached to adorable characters and watch us kill them off
THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Justine and William are adorable, which makes what happens in the second half of the song so much more heartbreaking!
Chess-Blackfyre MUAHAHA
Who here actually read the book? I have, it's pretty good but probably an acquired taste I haven't seen the musical, only listened to the songs and when I saw her name being called I said " RIP Justine"!
i’ve read it a few times! i really enjoy it :-)
I've read it twice and I'm going to a third time soon. First time was in high school, second was for a college course called "Monsters and Monstrous", and now I'm enrolled in a whole course literally dedicated to the book and the world that shaped it.
I just started the book lol it’s interesting
I- Oh my gosh. For once, I'm speechless.
,,,I need to lie down
I hadn't gotten to hear this song when i first heard the album and MAN. My heart??? I literally cried, your animatic really captured the raw emotions
THANK YOOUUU
I just cried happy tears. This is my favorite musical, and you did this song justice.
this is so cute dude omg
oh NO
OH NO HAHHAHA
Comments made moments before disaster
noooo, I was so caught up in how cute the first part was that I forgot about the second part 😭😭😭😭
2:54 telling your parents you threw up at 3am
OMG you're right 😂. I didn't realize that until now.
Oh my gosh! The amount of emotion the creature shows in this is just amazing to me! I've seen so many animations showing the creature just being cold and cruel, but being able to see him show sadness in this was so amazing! You did an excellent job! Keep up the good work!
roarimadino thank you!!!
@@miasen your welcome! 😊
Gosh... This song has always bee my favorite in the musical and you did it SO much justice! The expressions, the characterization, your amazing art style, the flow, the TRANSITIONS FROM JUSTINE AND WILLIAM TO THE DARKER PART OF THE SONG! This is SO amazing and I had chills the whole time. Justine looks horrified the whole time and I love how you draw Frankenstein's monster! This was just so, so good. I'm wishing you the best!
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!
You are so talented! Thank you for making more Frankenstein stuff! 😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much!! it is my honor,,
your Willian is adrable and it makes the scene much sadder T.T
Oh my- how are you able to make art so good! This is probably one of the best animatics I’ve ever seen!
wow!! i know i'm sort of late to this, but this is amazing!! the beginning is so pure and sweet and then the second half is so intense and you captured victor so perfectly!! every emotion was really beautifully illustrated and it was super powerful. you did an incredible job!!
Oh wow. The switch from light and cheerful to dark and oppressive was so startling, I love it!
Автор, Вы знаете толк в производстве стекла. Я теперь плачу, Вы проделали прекрасную работу!
This is phenomenal. I analyzed this animatic for an english class of mine where we're currently reading Frankenstein. This animatic is so full of emotion and anguish, it's so expressive. I love near the end where you really captured the amount of pressure Victor was under.
Poor woman D:
They’re so sweet and I love this song, which makes its second half so much sadder
Their voices are so pretty! Especially my bby boi! 🥺🥺🥺
I'm in love with this!!! Also your design for the creature is really hot 😍
Me: “awww what a nice song.”
Also me: “oh fuck this is Justine’s song.”.
OMG THIS IS GREATTT, I LOVE EVERYTHING, THE TRANSITION, THE EXPRESSIONS, ALL BEAUTIFUL
Never had an animatic hit harder
I really love your work on FANM so far. It's been a pleasure to watch and rewatch.
Joshua O'Brien OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH???? this is a really nice analysis im so glad you like it!!
GOD this is SO BEAUTIFUL the expressions and the transitions and the character designs are so goooooood aaaaaaa!
I LOVE the way you draw these characters omg
2:15 I love the transition so much
OH MY GOD I LOVE YOUR FRAMING. This entire animatic is beautiful the god forsaken emotions and the sudden escalation and change. The expressions. THE EXPRESSIONS. How Victor and the Creature are the only one with a different eye artsyle from the others. How you draw?? Your artstyle??? /Pos. I am more than om nom noming this. This is so underrated I am MAD
I AM SO- HOW DARE YOU- MY HEART! THIS IS SO GOOD! IT LITERALLY HIT ME SO HARD! SOOOO MANY FRAMES! I LOVE THIS! I LOVE THIS KID TOO!
I love this song so much and I'm so happy someone made an animatic of it... The way the musical portrays William is so great; he's barely in it but the few scenes we do get show such great moments of characterization. I'm so happy that he got to have a song with Justine to develop them before their tragic deaths. It's so cute and wholesome and makes the trial all the much more sorrowful. I love this musical and book so much and just thank you for your animatics and bringing these painful and complex emotions to life!
Excuse me WHERE are your subscribers?! This is a masterpiece!!!
Holy HECC why haven’t I seen this before??? this is incredible!!!
This animation is what prompted me to listen to the full musical
THIS IS PERFECTION, I CANT PUT INTO WORDS HOW PERFECT IT IS BUT LIKE ITS PERFECT
This style and emotions are so beautiful! up to this day still my favourite animatic!
literally gave me chills, i adore how you drew the characters and everything about this is just so good on the eyes, mad kudos!
For an animatic, the storyboarding is pretty smooth!
Bro you're so good at this! The transitions, designs, the animation in general! 👏👏👏👏
"Why did you do it? Kill a child?"
"Why did you leave me there to die?"
"So full of promise, so full of wonder-"
"Have you forgotten that so was I?"
This song did NOT come to play.
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG
Why the HECK is this so FREAKING good!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
No one:
This song: the entirety of 2:22
AAAAAHHHH! i just came from your these hands animatic and i usually DON'T comment on videos but i can't help it ??? it's so sweet and cute at first and then the switch in the middle of the song, you made it so jarring and i loved it! and having the creature in the background ?? i loved it so much ! oh poor justine, i feel so bad for her. but also the ending ? with the creature's hands going around victor's neck ? idk i know it's symbolic and i loved it ! good job !!
HAHA THank you!!
I love the way you draw their expression!!
The Creature sure cried a lot, huh?
IT LOOKS SO GOOD!
