craigerella: official storyboard/animatic
DISCLAIMER: flashing lights, quick movements, some signs of abuse/fighting
if thats not your kinda jiggle then thats okay im going to explain it:
craigerella is a story based around craig tucker which isnt a surprise im obsessed with him—but he has these life struggles that made him the bland, cold person he is today. thats what i wanted to represent.
craig tucker grew up being forced to not express himself by his dad, since in the show he is homophobic and had some really homophobic views. but, of course it works out in the end don’t worry💖 for years craig was locked in his bedroom (literally) and was forced to change.
this story still has craig and tweek fighting (season 3) and builds off of that. craig has been abused, yes, verbally and physically and this fight reminded him of that. since craig never really had the chance to find comfort between him and his dad, he turns to the boy who fought him.
of course, this leads to conflict later on. craig is diagnosed with GERD, which makes his stomach sensitive. he cannot have caffeine or chocolate and even citrus fruits. he finds this to be another thing crummy about his life. at this point, craig feels like he has nothing. so, as he grows distant with tweek and his friends, he finds happiness in a new sport: rupauls drag race [NOT BEING USED FOR CONTROVERSY OR ANYTHING. no affiliation and no drama] and the drag queen sport itself. this makes him feel like theres something he can look forward to—but theres one problem.
he cant watch it at home, his dad would kill him. the best thing would be going to tweeks coffeehouse and staying there—another problem—he cant stay there if he doesnt buy anything. and he cant drink caffeine.
but its the only way he can watch it, so he throws up coffee everyday of his life just to see rupaul 💀
so yeah this is how craig became a disney princess 💀
WARNING🤩
the animation sucks, and i know that, but its a storyboard. storyboards are layouts of what you want the story to look like and are usually what people use to plan things out. THERE ARE SO MANY MISTAKES IN HERE! ill admit it 💀

but its ok. try and piece things together. idk if anyone even wants to watch it lol BUT IK I AM SEE YA 💀💀💀 THIS IS LIKE AN ACCOMPLISHMENT I NEVER STICK TO PROJECTS WAHOO
