Intro Today marks the 1 year anniversary for my first ever Image Animation. I never really knew I would continue making more of these after the first one, but here we are! As of right now, I have created a total of 8 Image Animations. And today, I will be commentating about how these animations came to be and what was my thought process when making these! Before I had the idea to make Image Animations. I was very obsessed with Lemon Demon and wanted to create my own animations One song in particular is called "Milkshake City Here We Come" and I had a really good idea for an animation. The problem was that I wasn't an animator (nor a compotent artist), and my idea for it was a lot different from the version we had now. Instead of Bingus, I was thinking of using Felix Munch instead. He didn't have a proper crouching gif, but Bingus did. So I used her instead. The rest of the characters were OCs and the only one I had was Red Ned so that was waay out of the question. Just like with all the other Lemon Demon songs I had animation ideas for. I just shelved it in my head never to actually be created. Around this time. I was also a bit interested in Animutations, which were an old genre of animations that heavily used edited images. One animutation that I loved was "Earth vs Funk". Which was about a bunch of people doing a bunch of stuff whilst fighting the earth Also around this time. I decided to switch to Davinci Resolve which I heard was a very good editing software. I had a bit of trouble trying to get used to it, and wanted to improve my skills. Suddenly, a lot of things started to click on my mind. Animutations can probably be made from Davinci Resolve, and I still had that idea for the Milkshake City song. So I whipped out Davinci Resolve and got to work! Bingus and my Ever Lasting Sanity was the end result! Bingus and my Ever Lasting Sanity Overview: This image animation starts off with Laura from AEwVS. After a while, other characters appear and the goofy stuff happens. Bingus making sure to pull the cat out of Lauras head. Mattshea leaving because he remembers that Laura is racist to humans. And the whole reveal of the entire cast. Laura gets cursed. Sparky gets killed whilst Azazel watches. The queen of elizabeth is the face of The Cat. bingus stomps on Mattshea. I made a lil' cameo here with my face being covered by Mattshea. "Please do not the cat" is a reference to a funny meme I saw on reddit. Azazels face gets covered by Bingus which was used in a teaser image. And then the part with the blue background begins! The instrument assets were taken from Discord via the Inspect Element tool to obtain the SVG files. I had to convert them to PNG so that they can be used for editing. When the camera zooms in, I actually just changed the size of the focused character and moved the other ones out of the way And then the japanese goblin shows up and wants to fight against Bonnie because I wanted conflict. He whips out the blade and Bonnie whips out the magical spoon. They then fight which results in Bonnie using her magic spoon powers to kill the japanese goblin and win the fight Characters: Laura - She looked really cool so I decided to use her! Bonnie Head - The detatched head of Bonnie. She is more powerful than her full counterpart (OFFICIAL LORE!!) Yingus? - My cousin made this one. They kinda have the ukraine colors so thats my headcannon for them The Cat - I don't remember exactly why I chose them. But they just looked cool Bingus - Bingus!!! She represents Bingus in the title! Japanese Goblin - Very scary evil fella. I remember when I was young, I saw the emoji and I was very scared of it! Mattshea - I think my cousin wanted him in the animation. Didn't have that much to do with him Realistic Roblox Head - Another character my cousin wanted to add in! Wheel Cat - Around this time. I was in Into The Future Chapter 3 and wanted a good cat to deal with the alien enemies. I got help from one of my friends and they said to use Wheel Cat which dealt massive damage to aliens. They looked goofy so I added them in my animation! Azazel - How everyone reacts after watching Hot Lava. She represents My Ever Lasting Sanity in the title Sparky - He got hit by a ball really badly and needs help! Two guys - Another image my cousin wanted to add in Queen of Elizabeth - Looking back. I don't think it was a good idea putting her in this image animation DAGames Baldi - Around this time. Me and my cousin watched a video by Chazington about fan songs and he mentions DAGames baldi and we immediately got hooked. My cousin got a screenshot of him twerking and I used it in my animation Laura. But as a cat? - Uhhhh. I don't remember my exact reasoning for why I used the cat version Myself - That is me eating food! You can see the unedited version in Crashie204s Discord server! Ugly Roblox Lady - Another image my cousin wanted to add in Behind the Scenes: First of all. I originally made this animation as like a love letter to animutations and to the original artists of the characters I used for this animation (specifically to Melty Clown Studios). You'll be seeing more love letters to animutations the more we delve deeper, with each entry being a lot more love letter-y than the last The name itself came from a mix of my favorite character at the time (Bingus) and my lack of sanity after finishing the project. I didn't really had a final name for the animation whilst making it The way I get the character images for my animations is fairly tricky. If I own the game that the character are from, I could just retrieve them from the game files. If I couldn't do that, or didn't own the game. I'd just search fandom for the character images. However, at the time, I didn't know how to retrieve the raw files from the wiki. So I ended up getting a webp file. So what I had to do was head onto freeconvert.com and convert the file into a png so that I can use it. You may notice that the Cat gif is quite buggy. That is because I tried doing the same procedure, but it seems that gifs had a few problems and ended with the white background (previously transparent). Speaking of gifs, Davinci Resolve didn't support gifs around this time. So I had to convert them to mp4 which created this buggy effect I made the first 15 seconds in day 1 as a demo and showcased it to my friends. The demo is a lot different from the final version. It included an unused character which looked similar to Bingus but with a moustache. The backstory for moustached bingus (and the ukrainian bingus) is that some time before the creation of this image animation, I was joking around with my cousin about Bingus' secret cousin. I would then open up Microsoft Paint and open up the Bingus sprite, and then I drew a crude looking moustache and then saved it. I recall giving it a name similar to Yingus, but I forgot what the name was. My cousin wanted to do something similar so he opened up the Bingus sprite and then changed the clothes to blue and the hair yellow. He then gave it a name, but I kinda forgot that as well. I asked him about it recently and he said that it might be Yingus. In the demo version, the other bingus versions had a transparent background. I decided I wanted to recreate Yingus in Paint dot net so that I could have a transparent background. I didn't do the same to moustache bingus, probably because two bingus' is already enough. RIP Moustached Bingus After I finished making the first demo, I sent it to Crashie204 and my cousin for feedback. I'd also later send a teaser image to Crashie204 during the second day. Which is probably the only few pre-release things I recall making Speaking of the second day. It was alot different compared to the first. I was hard at work for a Monke Game fangame and I wanted an excuse to slack off, so I went into Davinci Resolve and decided to finish the entire animation, which took the entire second day. My father (and a few other people) insisted that I should make it public, but I decided against it because of how different it is compared to everything else Scrapped Content: Moustached Bingus: Mentioned in the Demo. RIP Alternate Intro: During the part where the four different characters were shown, I had an alternate version where the characters slide from Right to Left. And at the fourth character, I had the two pointing wojaks show up from the bottom and stuff Sections: You may notice that some parts of the song got cut out. I decided to cut them out cause of time constraints. But I would be lying if I said I didn't plan for anything during those parts. At 1:40-1:48. I was planning on using real life rocket launch footage and replacing the rocket with Bingus so that it looks like she is flying. I got inspired by the ren'py tutorial to add that in, but I never did at the end Kleptospira Overview: The second IA that I worked on! This IA starts off with the unused green character from Cuphead. I used him because he looked green and it sorta just fit with the word "Kleptospira". Which is probably a word that I invented for the video, unsure tho. The Crashie204 emotes are here because I asked her previously if I could get the image files for her emotes to use for BamES. Except she forgot to give me the image files until I sent her the image teaser for the animation, which was around the time when I had already finished the entire animation. DA Baldi is here once again because he is just that memeable 0:27 - Laura seemed like such a mood guitarist so I reused the Laura guitar image from the previous IA into this. And there she goes. But hey! It's baldi and the crying Crashie204 emote! 0:39 - Crashie204 always seems to have all the goofiest gifs. So I decided to download them and use them for my IAs 0:42 - You may notice a bit of weird video frames here and there. I never really found a way to fix them. But I found that converting the video to MP4 works well 0:45 - Here is a goofy gimmick about this IA. Two Gifs are shown one after the other. And it looks really goofy! 0:48 - I tried making a character move around a circle whilst not changing their rotation. This is the result 0:57 - Around this point. Crashie204 commented that this looks like she is being hypnotized. She couldn't be any more correct 1:09 - Everyone is being sad now ;-;. Laura is really good at moody guitar! 1:15 - We NEED to keep track of this info! It will be important in the future! 1:24 - OH NO! LAURA HAS CAUGHT SIGHT OF BALDI!!! NOW SHE IS CRAVING FOR HUMAN FLESH!!!!! 1:30 - This is a placeholder which I got lazy to change 1:36 - There is also a small plot here in this IA. Miles Morales is running away from the ugly grandma so that he doesn't get beaten up or something. That's kinda it 1:39 - I am not sure where they are going. But it better be some place nice! . 1:51 - OMG LORE!? -Crashie204. But in all seriousness. I really just made this cause I wanted something cool or cryptic to happen during this part of the song 2:06 - These two cats aren't changing directions. They are actually switching positions. It's hard to tell because there really isn't any difference between the two actions 2:12 - I just ran out of ideas at this point 2:18 - Miles wasn't fast enough to outspeed the grandma. So she caught up to him and started beating him up! And it seems like some onlookers are watching the fight unfold! 2:27 - And then we get to the outro. Which is admittedly a lot longer than I wanted it to be. If you weren't hyptonized from the previous part, well you sure are now! 3:09 - Hello Cat! You missed out on the entire IA! 3:15 - That is once again a real photo of me! Characters: Unused Green Boss - He was the first person who I thought of when I was first creating the IA Ugly Grandma - She shows up and is sort of the main character here! Bonnie Head - Bouncin' around and goofin'! Crashie Surprised Emote - Given to me by Crashie herself! Apparently, she said that it looked slanted. Which I didn't notice until she mentioned it herself Kaoluga - He has a big head! Must be smart! Miles Morales - The victim of the Ugly Grandmas beatings! Baldi - Oh Oh Oh hi there! Bingus - Still doing that goofy dance that she always does Scratch Cat - Tried doing the same thing that Bonnie did to gain more powers. Unsure if it actually worked or not Crashie Cool Emote - She is like Justice from Helltaker. Always looking really cool! Queen of Elizabeth - Once again. I feel like I shouldn't be using her in my IAs. Maybe it's a curse that her ghost self has given me? Laura - Felt moody today. Decided to bust out her guitar to cope Crashie Cry Emote - Crying at how beautiful Laura's guitar sounds Sad Emoji - Had a bad day lately. Just wanted to came by and see the show unfold Dancing Baby Yoda - Crashie kept using this emote all the time and I thought it looked hilarious! Bouncing Frog - :0 FROG!!!! He is bouncing a lot!!! Selmers Doodle (Secret Character!) - It's SELMERS! Or at least it's a doodle. WOW Person! - She is surprised at all the goofy stuff unfolding right now! The Cat - I wonder what she was doing that caused her to be late? Myself - Chugging down on that beer! (Well not really) Behind the Scenes: Purely Patches Overview: Patches does whatever he wants because he is cool and has an entire IA dedicated to him! 0:22 - After Kleptospira. I had finally made a proper Patches circle! This circle had many iterations during the creation of this IA 0:37 - I am quite disappointed at how ugly the Patches bouncing looked 1:02 - I really like how this part turned out! If I were to change it, I would probably keep the Patches Circle because it looks like Patches killed the circle Characters: Patches Star - I would've preferred if it was just the head Staring Patches - Staring directly at the viewer! Ignoring the fourth wall! Licking Patches - He shouldn't be licking his hand, it's unhygenic! Shocked Patches - I am not sure why he is turning a lot. But he sure likes it! Jumping Patches - LOVES Jumping!!!!! Knife Patches - Had killed a bunch of people in the past. Not afraid to kill more! Behind the Scenes: The creation of this IA was due to a particular Tumblr Sexyman tournament going on which included Patches. I decided to create this to increase the mood of the people who voted for Patches. But at the end, he failed on the second bracket :( Whilst creating this IA. My old hard drive had crashed, and it's content are unaccessible. So I switched to a new one and had to basically start over. Hot Lava Overview: A buncha random stuff occurs and we get to see Bingus! But after she leaves, we see every single character moving in a straight line before Patches explodes everyone! 0:20 - I had this idea of Aimkid dancing with these specific characters moving around. That was like the first thing I thought of when I started making this IA 0:28 - No ill intentions here! I actually really like Cory! 0:29 - Ran out of ideas here. I have no idea why the evil angry cat is pointing at you! 0:33 - Another section that I thought of before I started. They start to desync after a while, which is messing with me rn 0:52 - That is not how the mushroom works! It's meant to make you bigger! 0:58 - Another section I initially thought of. But not with these exact characters (except for Patches) 1:11 - I really wanted to find a perfect loop gif of the Minion dancing. But couldn't :( 1:14 - I recall a similar version with Homer in his casual uniform. But this was the only one I could find 1:21 - If you look closely, you can see the green outlines on Sr Pelo. Since I got the image from a green screen 1:30 - DAGames Baldi returns again! He is just soo memeable 1:51 - Bonnie's Head claims another victim! 2:13 - THE BIG COLE CIRCLE IS HERE!!! 2:18 - These are my headcannons for how fast each character is btw 2:31 - AHH. THERE ARE SOO MANY PEOPLE HERE!!! 2:42 - And they say their goodbyes really quickly! (Funny enough. I think the CoryxKenshin goodbye was unintentional. Not sure tho) Characters: Bingus - Still here! As goofy as ever! Fandroid - This was the first character where I tried to remove their background for a good gif. I initially tried with remove.bg before I realized that it was better in paint.net Aimkid - I like the goofy lil' dance that she does Nathan Barnatt - Still lost his bones! Came here to show off his dance! CoryxKenshin - 🐐 Cole Brew - One of my comfort characters! He is just really goofy! Bonnie Head - Still cool as ever! Evil Angry Cat - I found this guy from Regit. He said that he found it from Aviivix. But I still couldn't find the original even with Google Lens Dancing Baby Yoda - Still dancing his heart away! Sad Chef - She came from the lemondemon website. Currently being harassed by Will Smith Skibidi Toilet Firey - He is just fire. And he is still wondering why that evil cat is pointing at him Smurf Cat - Trying to find his home. Accidentally ended up here Ed + Duolingo - They jogged soo fast they switched dimensions! Jacksepticeye - Still staying strong to his home counter. GLORY TO ARSTOTZKA Wolf with a Guitar - He likes playing with his guitar. And bounces a lot Sr Pelo - Joined in on the party after the trio had disbanded Heheheha kid - You can find this exact gif by going to the discord gif tab and search up "Heheheha" Fandrew - My favorite ADHD robot Patches - NOOO PATCHES. DON'T BLOW UP THE ANIMATION!!! Minion Gif - He doesn't actually know he is in this IA. He got teleported here whilst he was dancing at the club. He still thinks he is there! Homer Simpson - Decided to do a funny dance which made me want to put him here DA Baldi - He wasn't invited. But is still here regardless Fandrew + Nirvana Face - Fandrew decided he wanted to create a fandrew sized mannequin but with the Nirvana face. Bingus doesn't mind, so he is here to stay! Soyjaks - They are surprised to be here! Behind the Scenes: There is this Deporitaz song called "Molten Lava 2000" which is the same song as this but more chaotic. I really wanted to make an IA with that song, but I know that I am not prepared for something like that. So I decided to use "Molten Lava" instead. I had a lot of ideas before I even started making this animation. Some good examples being the aimkid, jacksepticeye, DA baldi parts. Erika Overview: The first Image Animation to be made in Scratch! Even has its own menu and stuff! 0:02 - I really like this intro. It's like the best part of this entire IA 0:18 - I'm sorry Neil for using your child self 0:20 - When I was making the title image. I wanted it to look like it was increasing in size the more characters there are. But I failed at that because I am not a graphics designer 0:31 - This was like the first time I ever used a background in my IA. But I really like how it looked! 0:42 - Despite being an entirely different dimension. The Battle Cats still prevails!! 0:53 - NOOOO DANTDM DON'T LASER BLAST FREDDY!!! 0:57 - NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Characters: Boykisser - You like finding secret scenes don't you? Pig with Trumpet - They make a really good intro! Freddy Fazbear - Thankful that Freddy Fazbore isn't in the room with me DanTDM - I just suddenly remembered that one face that DanTDM made and I quickly went to use it Deporitaz - He barely ever talks. But when he does, he is very ominous Chad Levy - A character my cousin wanted me to add in. He has learned all the chess tactics yet is still sent to the Scratch dimension Apple Cat - Likes dancing in his apple Arisu - another character my cousin wanted me to add in. Looking back, I could've used her in the intro by having her move from the right to the left of the screen. But I decided to instead use her as the play again button Behind the Scenes: Soo backstory! This was made for an event in school where we cosplayed as a country and stuff. I decided to choose Germany since I was learning the German language via Duolingo. I was originally thinking of using Zero Gravity for my Germany based animation. But I never finished it because I didn't had any good ideas for the animation. So I scrapped it and asked one of my classmates for a song idea. They chose "Erika" and I decided to get to work! One of the reasons why I chose Scratch was because I found a Scratch Studio which talked about Animutations. It was fairly active during that time so I started work in Scratch to submit it there! Hidden Mystery Overview: This one is pretty mysterious and has a secret message included with it! OOOooo!! But in all honesty, I have already documented my thoughts on the Developer Commentary associated with this Image Animation. So I don't really have that much to say with this 0:00 - The first symbol is right here. It's pretty obvious and represents the letter "S" 0:04 - Bingus loves to float around in the darkness! 0:07 - Next symbol here which represents "T" (Dark Text) 0:10 - If you look really closely at the middle of the screen. You can see Gaster. I am not sure where else Gaster is in the animation. I hid him too well! 0:18 - Next symbol here which represents "O" 0:21 - Had an old version of this shot. Maybe you can find it in one of the demos 0:24 - Next symbol here which represents "P" 0:30 - Next symbol here which represents "T". Soo story time. When I first made the snake circle, Davinci Resolve was lagging really badly, which slowed down the video playback when editing. What I saw was a normal speed circle, but when exporting, it turned out to be REALLY fast! 0:39 - Next symbol here which represents "H" 0:44 - Stay away from me clam guy 0:49 - Next symbol here which represents "E" 0:56 - Next symbol here which represents "V" 1:03 - Next symbol here which represents "I" 1:07 - Next symbol here which represents "D" (Dark) 1:18 - At this point. I found out about the opacity property and decided to use it on Gaster 1:22 - Next symbol here which represents "E" 1:32 - If you look closely at the right snake guy when he goes in screen. You can see him slowly move to the right. I must've made a mistake with the X position somewhere 1:37 - Next symbol here which represents "O". I really love how this light thing turned out at the end. It's one of those moments when the final product looks exactly as you intended 1:50 - I honestly ran out of ideas on how I could execute the final part so I did this. One minor flaw in this is that the guy with the saxophone is rotating the wrong way. I swear I made that a rule when making this IA to make sure he turns the correct direction 2:15 - The word at top translates to "NOW" 2:19 - Bingus shows up to warn you about that secret message you were supposed to look out for. This image is an edited version of a sprite from the secret bingus ending in Bonnie's Bakery 2:29 - I made this goofy death screen for the people who haven't deciphered the secret message. I really like how it turned out, though that sound effect implies that you are Bonnie Characters: Bingus - Despite not fitting well with the animation. I included her in regardless! Goner Kid - He has seen a lot of things in his days. Worrying that he doesn't contribute much to the world! Clam Guy - EXTREMELY Flirtatious. But pretty awkward. Is that an oxymoron? I'm not soo sure Gaster Follower with a piece of Gaster - The piece of Gaster is more important than the actual guy! Snake Follower - Mainly used as a circle since I love character circles! Generic Follower Guy - He plays the saxophone really well. And that's it (Dark Text) Gaster - He lurks in the shadows striking you at the end. If you have not deciphered the secret message. Then it's too late for you! Behind the Scenes: I already mentioned this. But I don't really have that much to say about this IA that hasn't already been said in the Developer Commentary included with it Red And Blue Overview: This is the second IA to be made in Scratch (Penguinmod). It uses a new engine which will be the one that I will use for the rest of my Scratch IAs! 0:04 - The penguins used in the circle are the default sprite when you make a new project in Penguinmod. I decided to keep them in cause they're cool 0:06 - Clown7 here says something random depending on the FUN value on this Animation. But since the only way you can view this is via youtube (Penguinmod servers seems to be indefinitely down). He will always say "RIP BOZO" 0:18 - This is the earliest screen I worked on when I first made this IA. It's also for testing a new "Offset List" system I have been working on 0:25 - I could've probably just googled the Pou sprites on the internet. But instead, I kept yelling "PAH" at Pou and screen recording his response to use for this IA 0:27 - Three Clown7's rising was originally part of the screen before it. But this screen felt empty so I moved it here 0:32 - The Penguin circles required a lot of setup to work. For context, each penguin is its own seperate being, and not all of them being an entire costume. So I had to put each penguin in a specific position relative to its "Circle Progression" as I like to call it. It's pretty complex math stuff. Here is the full code on how it's done if you are wondering (show code here) 0:39 - Justice was a character that my cousin asked me to add in. I recall he even sent me fanart of her and papyrus. This has nothing to do with the IA I just wanted to mention it 0:46 - Couldn't think of any dialogue so pretend they are talking 1:00 - WOOOOOO PEACE ESTABLISHED!!! 1:16 - The title image I made in Paint.net. Which was really fun to do! Behind The Scenes: As I mentioned before. This Scratch IA uses a new engine I made in Penguinmod. My cousin wanted this particular song for the IA. He suggested having a Smosh cameo which inspired me to implement Ghetto Smosh (Yes it is them specifically)
