  • After two years of intermittent labor, here it finally is! Thank you so much to everyone who has been following the progress of this getting made and for supporting me as I took on a project that kind of exploded in scale past what I initially planned haha.
    Firstly, thank you to everyone involved in making Beetlejuice the Musical! I love it so much and this thing only happened because the source material is just so good. Consider this a send-off for the musical since it'll be closing early next year. If you're able to, y'all should really grab some tickets and see the show live! They're also touring the show soon, so really there's no excuse!! Go watch this show. It's a joy and a labor of love.
    Secondly, I feel it's necessary to provide a small disclaimer. This project started out as a storyboard and ended up landing somewhere in between boards and animation. For sake of those who don't know and maybe want to break into the animation industry, this level of polish, color, backgrounds, etc is ABSOLUTELY NOT what is expected or wanted from an actual professional storyboard. I put in the time and effort to give it this level of polish just for fun! And also because I know I'm not shipping it off to get animated. This is the final product and it's something I just wanted to do for the hell of it because I love boarding and I love this musical.
    Now that that's out of the way, I just wanna give an extra thanks to Jeannette Arroyo and Amber Blade Jones for busting their asses to give this little project some of the most BEAUTIFUL backgrounds in the business. It elevated the level of this thing beyond anything I could've hoped for.
    Thank you all again SO MUCH for watching! I hope you enjoy! =]

      Hey, folks! Begging your pardon
      'Scuse me, sorry to barge in
      Now let's skip the tears and start on the whole
      Y'know
      Being dead thing
      You're doomed, enjoy the singing
      The sword of Damocles is swinging
      And if I hear your cell-phone ringing
      I'll kill you myself
      The whole being dead thing
      Death can get a person stressed
      We should have carpe'd way more diems
      Now we're never gonna see 'em
      I can show you what comes next
      So don't be freaked
      Stay in your seats
      I do this bullshit, like, eight times a week
      So just relax, you'll be fine
      Drink your fifty-dollar wine
      And take a breath
      Welcome to a show about death
      You're
      You're gonna be fine
      On the other side
      Die! You're all gonna die! You're all gonna die!
      I'll, I'll be your guide
      To the other side
      Though in full disclosure: It's a show about death
      Everybody gets on fine here
      Like Rodgers, Hart, and Hammerstein here
      The women's bathroom has no line here just
      Pee where you want, the whole being dead thing!
      You're just gonna love the folks here
      Yeah, I know you're woke, but you can take a joke here
      And every show I do, like, a ton of coke here
      The whole-
      The whole being dead thing!
      Nobody is bullet-proof
      "I work out, I eat clean!"
      Jesus, pass the Dramamine
      Time to face the brutal truth
      'Cause we're all on a hitlist
      Might not live 'till Christmas
      Choke to death on Triscuits
      Hey, that just statistics
      So take a little break here
      Kinda like a wake here
      The scenery is fake here
      But there's a giant snake here!
      Welcome to a show about death
      You're, you're gonna be fine
      Thank you!
      On the other side
      How you doin'?
      Oh, not good!
      I'll, I'll be your guide
      To the other side
      Seriously, though, this is a show about
      Death is taboo, but it's hardly something new
      There's nothing medical professionals can do
      'Cept maybe just bill you
      If you die while listening to this album
      It's still gonna keep playing
      There's no destiny or fate
      Just a terrifying wait
      Filled with people that you hate
      And on a certain date, the universe kills you!
      That's the thing with life
      No-one makes it out alive
      Toss that body in the pit
      "Gosh, it's awful, ain't it tragic?"
      Blah, blah, "Bible Jesus" magic
      When you're dead, who gives a shit?
      No pilates, no more yoga
      "Namaste", you freakin' posers
      From the cradle to cremation
      Death just needs a little conversation
      I have mastered the art (Dies Irae!)
      Of tearing convention apart (Dies Irae!)
      So, how about we all make a start (Dies Irae!)
      On the whole being dead thing
      God, I hope you're ready for a show about death!

      in the show the ensemble are mourners! so when he says "how you doin'?" to a lady it's to someone who's absolutely beside herself in grief which is why she's crying. it's always fun to listen to an album and have your own ideas on what the story is and then see how it's actually done live/on stage!
      another example of this is that another person on RUclips grew up listening to the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack and thought the phantom was an actual sorcerer who used music magic to entrance people and kill them. when they saw the show and realized he was just a horny guy they were disappointed lol

    The line "If you use during this album, it's gonna keep on going" works so much better in an album than in theatre because it's true, it reflects on how the world will go on without any of us where as in the theater this line is wrong, the show will stop of someone dies.

You captured the energy of this character and this world and this song so perfectly! And the colours? The smoothness?! Two years is a short time for what you managed to pull off! Im absolutely in love with this animation, its insanely beautiful and detailed and funny and creative! Even tho i can absolutely quote this entire musical, the way you animated it kept suprising me as if i didnt even know what jokes were coming! You captured Alex Brightmans energy so well and added another layer of cartoon absurdity that just isnt possible on stage. I love how you used the skeletons as the ensemble, and just the whole chaotic energy of Beetlejuice flying around messing with everything. The changes in hair colour at times were also a super cool detail! Im starting to repeat myself, so ill stop here, but oh my god i am in love with this. I hope this lands you a job at Disney or something cause HOLY SHIT this felt like watching a scene from a movie and i would like to see said movie
