Here's my contribution to the Ghost In The Machine - Lets Groove MAP! I was so happy to work with everyone and see it all come together after months of working on it and I'm so happy with how it turned out!
Please check out the full MAP here, and give @ohno-the-sun lots of love for organizing it all!
Also check out my behind the scenes on youtube, along with an description of the animation below if you'd like! :>
Description: A streak of smoke descends from the top of the screen, starting off small before bursting once it hits the floor to reveal Clip illuminated in a spotlight. He sways back and forth before posing to the camera, twirling with his arms outstretched as he grins. He draws a hand down and the camera focuses on it's movement as it turns, scrunches up and glides along with the lyrics, transforming back into that streak of smoke that flows out of the frame.
The scene changes to the basement of the mill and a hanging lamp. The light flickers twice, and the smoke streak of Eclipse zigzags around the light an down, dancing as he travels from the physical space of the mill to the digital dreamscape where his smoke trail is caught in glowing ghostly hands.
Ruin looks at his clasped hands, slowly releasing his hold and Clip streaks out in. Clip's smoke circles around Ruin, who tries to follow along, before getting caught as Clip materializes behind Ruin and grasps him. Turning Ruin's face to Clip as Clip sings along to the lyrics, Clip suddenly shoves Ruin away, but is still holding onto one of Ruin's hands with his lower set of arms. Ruin's expression breaks out into a smile as he and Clip dance together. Clip leads Ruin into a twirl, disappearing behind the ghost of Ruin until only his arms are visible from around him. The two ghosts move together as Ruin extends his arms out, first one and then the other, both becoming solid and real in the form of his animatronic body, before he draws them in and hugs himself, at which point all of him becomes fixed and whole.
As a final note, Clip slumps against Ruin's back in an easy embrace and gives his head a little pat as if to say, 'good job', while Ruin beams with a smile.
