This is my version of episode 159 from The Magnus Archives. Thank you to the friends who cheered me on though the project, the cool folks who hung out with me on twitch, and my awesome sister who is too scared to finish the podcast but will listen to me talk about it for hours on end.
And, of course, thank you to Jonny Sims, Alex Newall, Alasdair Stuart and and the rest of the crew and cast behind TMA (I’m so looking forward to the Magnus Protocol!)
I love animation, I love storyboarding, I love the Magnus Archives.
Thank you everyone for the lovely response! Over the next week I’ll post more still frames and making of pics–the ultimate plan is to record an educationally minded shot-by-shot break-down discussing camera and blocking choices, so keep your eyes out for that!
Thanks for the tags and comments, I’m reading through everyone’s suffering with an evil smirk on my and steepled fingers.
First time listening to episode 159, I rewound and replayed this moment between Jon and Martin three times in a row before moving on. Wept so deeply, I barely paid attention to Peter’s statement.
I’ve been overlooked in love many times. So when Martin vanished because Jon loved him too late, because he didn’t fully believe Jon cared, it hit hard. I’m still aching that this episode ended beautifully as it did.
My friend is halfway through s2 of Magnus (her first time through) and she says, “Jane Prentiss was mentioned through s1 the way Leitner is being mentioned through season 2. He’s got to show up in the finale. I hope he dies.”
This scene was my whole reason for storyboarding this giant project, so here’s a clip of THE moment!! Lots of long acting shots in here I spent hours and hours getting right, and I’m so happy with the final!!
Today on twitch! (Thursday, April 13) ! I’m doing a shot by shot breakdown of my Magnus Archives storyboards, talking bout cameras, blocking, and acting!
Today’s stream will be recorded and eventually edited for youtube, but come say hi and hang out with us!!
