    Felt this deeply as a firstborn daughter. It is and was just SO hard to navigate a younger sibling's boundaries while waddling through your own childhood. Parents' disapproval, having to share things you thought was just for you. Thank you for the reminder that at the end of the day, family is still a home you can come back to. Not for everybody, but yeah. I love the way you draw and how you can make us focus solely on Mona(?)'s perspective while using such a wide lens.

    Watching this really makes me appreciate having a sibling. We might have those little quarrels and we might hate some of their traits, but deep down there's always that familial bond that will always connect us. This is such a beautiful art. Be proud ❤

    The sudden cut to the upset child (protagonist) made me think the baby was dead when it was really only scratched by a shattered toy. The fact that I was conditioned to make that prediction goes to show how extreme, unrealistic, and even violent stories tend to be. It's really the simple things in life that matter, and I think this animation captures that perfectly

    It's kinda like what Hitchcock described about a man smiled scene to loving mom & kid scene compared to when the man smiled scene to a woman in beach suit. But yes, the whole point is that certain editing can impact the mood (between the subject & the observer/ between the topic to the responder).

    I think it also demonstrates the intensity of emotions we feel as children. While we or the mom may see it as "just a doll," the child may actually see it as a death in a way - with their place in the family being destroyed.

I'll definitely be returning not only for the dazzling animation (gosh I love their little pink cheeks and foreheads) but also for the message :) You did a phenomenal job animator and I hope you know you've made at least one person's day better :))))

  • @morganwilliams2597

    .. perhaps the reason why the child feels so bad about the broken toy is because of the way their(not assuming gender here) mother responded. She pulls the baby away, as if to protect the baby from them, making it seem more like it was their fault. And like a comment said earlier, the feelings/story could be a little exaggerated. The way the child running away is animated seems like they threw themself off the hill in frustration, on purpose, but maybe in their rush they only tripped down it instead. I don't know, I just find these little details so interesting! 🌻

    This animation reminds me of when I was a kid. Anytime I did something wrong like accidentally hurt someone, it would be my instinct to run away. I just couldn't forgive myself for things and I used to think I would always feel guilty about the things I had done. Now I'm an adult it's interesting how that has changed.

    This is such an amazing animation, the subtle sounds, the calm feel of it all and the breaking point were all perfectly thought out and executed. I also can’t get enough of the animation style. I’d love to hear what your inspirations were for your style and the story! The animation style reminds me a lot of memedokies art, while the clay props and calm feel also reminds me a lot of the game hylics! The overall story reminded me a bit of the my favorite movie: “song of the sea” as well. Good luck further on your animation journey, I am really excited to see what you’ll make in the near future! ❤

    I love the heart of this story so much. So simple but elegantly captures the give and take of having little siblings to care for. I love the whimsy of the water people, as well as the use of photographed clay models! Do you happen to be a fan of Mason Lindroth? Because I was delighted at the kitchen, it felt like something right out of his work. That just makes me so happy. Can't wait to see what else you make.
