ALSO THE CHANGE! FROM THE LETTER THAT JONATHON THROWS OUT OF THE WINDOW TO THE LETTER ON DRACULA'S HAND! PERFECT TRANSITION A+++++++
Don't mind me I've just been staring at these for a few days 😭 ahhhh I'm so honoured thank you!! Please don't be sorry for such lovely comments— now I have to rewatch the animatic while looking out for the timestamps ;) ahahahaaa :,)))) I can only say thanks again!!!! Im gonna put my response under the cut cause there ended up being so much:
0:53 Yesss glad you caught that!!!! its a reference to my DD2022 art; I decided to put it in the animatic because I think its one of my best works. HAVE to immortalise that
0:58 Heehee :3 I had so much fun making that move!! Originally it was supposed to be still but I had the thought of "hey now that ive learned keyframes I wonder what else i can do" so that was the result :)
1:25 :,) thats such a high praise, I had fun plotting out these transitions too!!!
1:31 Also another reference to one of my DD2022 arts! Had fun translating that to a more "cinematic" composition
1:33 Had no idea that was called a crybaby mole Im stealing that now on. Very happy someone noticed his beauty mark!!!
2:35 hehehehe
2:43 another case of "hm Ive learned keyframes what can I do with them" :) Im glad it looks cool!!
2:48 Yep!! plus also like a role reversal; previously it was Lucy who was entranced and helpless under Dracula's gaze. Now, it is his turn.
2:58 thanks!! I had so much fun designing them, especially the blue eyed one! Initially I forgot Stoker described her as "fair" but hm I guess you can close 2 eyes and it could be interpreted by the "beauty" meaning of "fair", rather than skin... I also genuinely forgot black people don't usually have blue eyes blonde hair but hey! Theyre vampires. No point quibbling about ""realism"" or whatever
3:03 hehehehheh. Thanks! I had so much fun drawing Dracula's defeat
3:17 HAD to draw that sunset its such a cinematic moment in the book. Stoker did good.
Also hehe yep the Art/Seward was purposeful. I love this song because it brings me so much nostalgia as the opening theme for a local tv drama. Very glad to have made it part of this animatic. Thank you for the enthusiastic dissection of this passion project aaa Ill treasure this response.

DRAWING ROOM - The Westenra house is furnished pleasantly, as you would expect of well-to-do family like theirs. Mrs. Westenra had pointed out the antiques in the drawing room with pride, before excusing herself for other matters. Leaving you and Miss Westenra alone.
Sounds of servants bustling about seep through even the thick wooden doors. You are reminded of how close it is to lunchtime. You are also reminded that this makes your continued presence even more obstrusive.
Noises of clinking cutlery disturb the otherwise increasingly strained silence between the two of you.
LUCY WESTENRA - "Dr. Seward?" The concern in her voice cuts through your thoughts. She busies herself by smoothing down her skirts, allowing you to come out of the anxious state you've worked yourself into.
YOU - Obstrusive? No, the lovely Miss Westenra could never be so unhospitable. To think of her as such would be to insult her.
PROFESSOR'S PET - Regardless friend John, I suggest that you act soon.
1. - "Apologies Miss Westenra." (Sit on your hat.)
2. - [REACTION SPEED: Challenging] (-1 Not very cool) "Apologies Miss Westenra." (DON'T sit on your hat.)
3. - All I want to do is act normal. Be at ease. A *cool* man. (Start juggling your lancet.)
4. - I don't want to do *any* of these???

Alright now that Dracula Daily's almost over I feel like i need to bring up Tumblr's 2022 Book ranking, and more importantly, the funniest possible misspelling of Stoker's name
the memes back then were glorious
