I’ve actually been sitting on this animatic for the longest time. I’ve wanted to do one for this piece since I put together The Wicker King animatic earlier this year, but could not find the right music to match the tone. I really like the music box feel with these animatics, but for this one, it needed to have a sense of foreboding. Found it!

Music: “Spring Thaw” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)
A scene from Sorcery of Thorns that I’ve been wanting to do for the longest time. Silas’ summoning scene was the capstone of this book for me. It was terrifying, sorrowful, and bittersweet for the trio to go through. Silas is my favorite character of the three, as a non-human character learning or questioning human feels is one of my favorite tropes, and this scene tested that with a ferocity.

I went a bit extra on this one, as I usually don’t put much detail into backgrounds 😖, but since I meant to include Elisabeth’s and Nathaniel’s reflections in the window (so we could see everyone’s face), everything in between had to be in focus and detailed. 😵 Also had to break out my anatomy references for the first time in a while for Silas, especially since he’s meant to be so gaunt - good exercise!
"Your body and your heart don’t stop finding the beauty and the attraction in other people simply because you’ve made a commitment to one person. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you’re drawn to someone else, it’s up to you to remove yourself from that situation before it becomes too hard to fight."
