kinda a sappy post but whatever. so if you haven’t heard, claudia cacace aka clacomics announced this morning that she wouldn’t be continuing her bmc animatic project. and I totally support her choice to do this, although it does sadden me a little bit to have that final nail in the coffin.
i got into bmc in 2017 and claudia was one of the first bmc artists I followed. there was just something about her expressions and poses and the way she drew characters that drew me in. because of her animatics and her art, I decided to take my own art seriously and even wanted to go to school for animation so i could draw like her someday. while I ended going to school for comics and not animation, if it weren’t for her I might not have even gone to art school in the first place.
so thank you claudia, for inspiring me to pursue art

So Claudia Cacace recently posted her last Be More Chill animatic and said in the pinned comment that she had wanted to stop a long time ago when people gave her bad attention; it made me think about how animatic creators at the height of the musical theater fandom were treated horribly, despite being the backbone of that fandom for the longest time. For example, I remember people used to give Mushroomie/Mushie r crap about how they were “copying” Szin’s art style, which is literally impossible. A lot of people in the fandom were clearly inspired my Szin’s artwork because she was one of the most popular artists in the fandom at the time and her art was indeed really good. You can’t “copy” an art style. And when Szin announced that she wasn’t going to make Hamilton animatics anymore “fans” were calling her a liar among other awful things because she had said in a now private (or maybe deleted) Q&A video that she had wanted to do all the songs, despite that fact that she also said in that same video that she was going to keep making Hamilton animatics as long as they were fun for her, which they has ceased to be by the time she had finished Act 1 and a bit of Act 2. It had been years, disinterest naturally happens and that’s okay. There were a lot of animatic creators who stopped for the same reason; animatic creating had stopped being fun for these artist and began to be more like a job rather than the hobby it started out as. Remember most of these creators were making these animatics alone and possibly without much if any pay from YouTube. And on top of that a lot of these creators were minors at the time! They likely had other obligations in life like school and family, not able to have time for a job, let alone a very time consuming, demanding, solo job. Not to mention all the other things these creators had to deal with, like making content in a timely manner so the algorithm didn’t abandon them, or YouTube’s shitty fair use system constantly threatening to copyright claim or strike videos and even entire channels in some cases like Mushroomie. If you were in the musical theater fandom around 2016-2019 you know how important animatics were. Pro-shots were even more rarely made than they are now (like pretty much never), and bootlegs of then-currently running shows stayed up online for only a few days or weeks if you were lucky, so a lot of fans had no way of legally seeing the show(s), and sometimes not even illegally. A lot of people who loved these musicals would love a show for it’s music, but had no clue what the full plot was out of a lack of being able to access the show in an affordable way, affordability still being an issue with Broadway today. So animatics were very vital to people getting at least an idea of how these shows visually looked and an opportunity for artist to do something they loved. This was how people got to see their favorite show in away that YouTube couldn’t (fairly) take down. Quite noticeably, when these animatic creators almost collectively stopped making animatics for these musicals or slowed down around 2019, the fandom fizzled out as well, or at least changed. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t dead like some believe in my opinion, but it’s definitely different. In one way, now that a lot of the most popular shows from this time and others have some kind of pro-shot or shitty movie adaptation, and YouTube being a lot more lose with bootlegs then they used to be, animatics aren’t as vital, but their importance shouldn’t be something to sneeze at and it blows that these animatic creators weren’t treated with the utmost respect they deserved at the height of their popularity. I know I’m pulling an old issue out of the grave and this issue is essential gone, with animatics being made at a less frequent rate than they were at the time, but I’ve never seen this talked about in length. If any animatic creators, currently active or not, are reading this, I hope you continue to enjoy you creations and that people respect you as they should.

Thinking about the time I was talking about Claudia Cacace’s Jeremy Heere design and called him “Jeremy Theere” and said she drew “Won’t Connolly”
#no hate#but lowkey hate#I also genuinely have a burning hatred with how she drew Christine ☹️#that is NAWT Stephanie Hsu ☹️#bmc#bmc musical#jeremy heere#I think I only like how she drew Michael and MAYBE Rich#why’d Christine get a button nose? ☹️#WHY DID JEREMY GET A BUTTON NOSE??☹️☹️#neither wc or wr have anything close to a button nose☹️☹️☹️☹️

Be More Chill X Digimon Zone concept sketch. I did a couple of scenario write ups prior but now I whipped out a sketch while I was relaxing. Jeremy uses Claudia Cacace’s design as a basis while Micheal is more my own take.
When mysterious pill shaped devices called “SQUIPS” are discovered and used by the unwitting student body at Middleborough High in an attempt to better themselves, the nervous Jeremy Heere inadvertently discovers the world of Digimon in his quest to become popular and, well, be more chill. Somehow, several Digimon have been downloaded into the SQUIPS, and naturally some of them go wild influencing their human “hosts” to cause problems. Together with his best friend Micheal Mell, “exchange students” Daniel Ike and Izzy Izumi:, and their own Digimon, the boys uncover the mysteries behind the Digimon infused SQUIPS, all the while Jeremy being influenced by his own SQUIP, a charismatic Algomon that has its own motives, none of it good for humans or Digimon.

i cannot understate how much a squip would improve my life, but i also cannot understate how absolutely fucked i and everyone around me would be if my squip was evil like in the musical or if it did things wrong and potentially was glitching like in the book. voice of eric william morris coming out of darkiplier (claudia cacace lol)?? i’d be dead. god forbid it became like Wheatley or something. I need you to understand how horribly down bad I would be. it’d tell to punch my sister in the face and i’d just be the judge from the good place “yeah, you’re probably right.” i’d absolutely take the risk because schoolwork is hell and it could tell me how to go through every other part of life, again insanely useful, but dude if i tell you i got a squip keep an eye on me. i have to cope with it being a sentient computer AND whatever character or person it deems important enough to me to influence me? death

lol just a small doodle of the squip
im trying to figure out a design that really fits the personality and this attempt was HEAVILY influenced by claudia cacace's version. im obsessed with their design and im pretty happy with how this came out
i think next time I want the jawline to be a bit more sharp because this face is a bit round but the squip is sharp and sleek and i think a heavy, thin jawline would match nicely
this doodle i focused on the line weight. like how the ones in the inner corner of the eyes are darker than the rest. or how the edges of it's face i tried to make pretty heavy.
i think im pretty proud of this
#squip#jeremy heere's squip#be more chill#bmc musical#bmc squip#bmc fanart#fanart#doodle#my art#i think i did pretty good#especially considering like how scared i am of my art skills#im a bad perfectionist and i had this one friend who was AMAZING at drawing#so of course i always compared myself to her#which was really unfair cuz she actually practiced while i was just... not doing much lol#yeah so i've never been proud of my faces#but i'm forcing myself to post to other people cuz i know im just really tough on myself#and i will force myself to post mistakes cuz i gotta get used to being bad#i like rambling on the tags lol

idk if anyone told you that your art style reminds them of be more chill animatics? i watched those a bunch in middle school. (it gave me a mountain dew obsession)
did you make them? or was that someone else?
wasn’t me lmaoo I was busy painting murals and drawing buff women at the time
I did listen to be more chill, I wasn’t really into fan stuff for it though. I’ve seen claudia cacace’s animatics
