Thoughts on the EVA collab

Posted by CletusJohannes - March 22nd, 2022


First of all, welcome to everybody who chose to follow me in the past few days, I appreciate your interest and plan to be posting more often. In the meantime please enjoy my previous animations and drawings. I am a little lost as of what to do next so I would appreciate knowing what you enjoy the most out of the things I've posted.


The past week has been pretty terrible,as I've been struggling with a family situation, that has kind of improved.

Fortunately the planets aligned and the collab went up, and oh my God, it came out super slick!

Watching it with the whole team was extremely uplifting! The incredibly positive response of the community has given me so much energy as well.


Now for some context on my cartoon Virginia is (not) for Virgins. I thought it'd be funny to poke fun at stupid crossover ships and fanfics like Shadow and Shrek; a theme I thought I could hint at through a Chris-Chan refference, maybe I shoul've leaned more to some dimensional merge shit for that o be more obvious... Nevertheless the reference ties nicely to the style of rebuild titles.


Regardless I chose Nigel in part cause his name ends in "EL" like all angels and in part cause he is so fucking odd looking.

I think I did a really poor job of thinking of a proper story and Dialogue to tell it, and attempted some obscure and unfunny jokes. And I can't blame that on the thing I'm spoofing.


My main focus went on BGs, Layout and Lip sync. I wanted to improve on those areas and had a lot of fun doing them. I heavily referenced the show and the original production designs.


This is what most shots looked like inside the symbols, littered with references:
