Animatic wip 1 - Jackdawgale & Talontail - Clouds of Pompeii

I'm still focusing mostly on the AMV but I also wish to show you guys something new and fresh in the meantime storywise so here is the most talon/jackdaw focused lore vid I'll probably ever get around to make! I really want this done before starting on the blood snow arc (where Ashkit's parents, Coalclaw & Shadowfern are lost)

It features their late mother Nightfall who died giving birth to Jackdawkit, and a heartbroken Coalclaw who has to care for their kits on his own. Talontail never blamed her brother for losing their mom, and instead took responsibility in protecting and guiding him, especially after they lost their father too :,)

I figured I'd show the animatic in it's roughest state without any cleaned up frames to show the process and how ugly and messy the first round of storyboard usually is! It really saves time if anything is redone or planned differently, technically I'm the only one who needs to understand what happens at this stage (so it might be a bit confusing to look at right now) just to have the storybeats and angles laid out!
