hey idk if this acc is inactive but i was wondering if you have the animatic that tripixle made based on listen before i go by billie eillish, it was made longgggggg time ago but i was thinking about it and i dont know if it existed or just like a mandela effect
Hi, not inactive, just a bit busy from life stuff
Actually three years ago I made a post about gathering all the animatics by Tripixle to post here in Tumblr for everyone to see. Link here. But since then only three of them were found and linked in the masterpost.
To be honest I can't recall the animatic you're referring to. But to be fair it was a long time ago. Was it about Coral and Garnet's relationship?
Complete Set of Pink Pearl/Coral designs in Unleash the Light style!!
The order of the designs goes by:
Original/Canon
Tripixle's version
Rebellion (Which, I think I did pretty alright!)
Season 1
Season 2-3
CYM
Just to be clear: None of these designs are mine. I simply followed the designs from Tripixle's design reference that is in every single one of the images above.
Anyways, this has been a huge project for me. I really enjoyed drawing and coloring them.
Also, here's a little life update if anyone's interested:
It's been two months since I got my first ever real job. And let me tell you, adapting to the work-life from school life is not as easy as I thought.
Also, the company I'm working for is not exactly local. It's kinda local but the company's main office is in another country. So I need to get used to the policy that is pretty different from where I'm from.
The job itself is probably gonna be the closest thing to my dream than I'll ever have. I'm an Editor and a tutor for Mandarin. For my editing job, they give me topics and I need to do research on writing informative writings about them. Or, I get a pretty general topic and I need to write interesting short stories about those topics.
The write-ups I'm doing are mainly for foreign students who are in the progress of learning and mastering the English Language.
The biggest downside I have is the tutoring in Mandarin. Now, I am Chinese and my first language is Chinese. But my major from University is English Education, so it's still a challenge for me to keep at it.
But hey, a job's a job, especially during these hard times. (*cough*covidandlockdown*cough*) And I'm pretty thankful that I can still land the job.
Hope you enjoyed this little project of mine. Drawing and coloring have been a huge break from work.
If you've read till the end, thank you, I really appreciate it. Thank you for being interested and have a great day.
Pearlplusau Animatic #2: Its over isn't it? (By Tripixle)
I've posted a description of the video from before, post link can be found here.
But if you're interested, I have some additional thoughts:
Pearl's idea of "I was fine with the men, who would come into her life now and again" indicates Rose dated several other humans that came and went as time goes by.
In this au however, she might have left out Coral from the equation because she didn't think Coral was even a competition.
However, when Coral came into the scene, Pearl finally realized there IS someone that understood. Coral was with Pearl the whole time. The rebellion, the life on earth, the aftermath, Rose's death, and Steven's birth.
This is probably why their duet makes sense. The two pearls have been playing an epic chess match for Pink/Rose's heart but in reality, they've both lost to Greg and neither of them wanted to admit it.
This is probably the breaking point of their relationship and how they can finally talk about it without worrying to be at each other's throats.
But anyways, these are just my thoughts.
Lastly, two animatics down, two to go!
Coral's part in Happily Ever After has been sent in, but they're not exactly in their original versions. I'll try to edit in an instrumental soundtrack of Pearl's Happily Ever After and hope for a similar outcome!
Now we're just missing "Listen Before I Go", which is probably the other huge animatic project done by Tripixle regarding this AU.
If you happen to have it on any of your devices, please let me know so we can share it with the rest of the fandom!
Technically the introductory comic of Amethyst in this AU (By Tripixle)
The comic above is a post-greg meeting where we see Coral/Pinkpearl being less close to Garnet or Pearl because she defended for Rose’s decision. Unfortunately, Garnet and Pearl couldn’t accept the decision, which later made Coral a lot more distant from Pearl and Garnet.
The two couldn’t accept that their leader would be gone and they probably took it out on Coral. Which was a plot point resolved by Tripixle in an animatic, but it got taken down with the rest of her work.
(Also, if you notice, three of the post are screenshots a few months back, screenshot number 1 and 4 has "Tripixle achieve" as the profile, which is taken recently after her announcement.)
Lol actually there is another short comic that actually introduces the relationship between Coral and Amethyst as her introduction, but that’s not in her Instagram achieve so i cant really do much abt it.
Description of the missing short comic:
First panel, showcasing Amethyst with an awkward Coral standing beside her, not really knowing what to do.
Second panel, “After some time”, showcasing how their friendship had developed with Coral leaning her chin on Amethyst’s head, hanging out and joking around.
This is one of her earlier works, its an very significant plot point and its what i wish to elaborate in future chapters (or rather past issues) in my own interpretations.
(I’m gonna try my best to redraw the short comic! Wish me luck!
But if anyone else saved up that specific comic, please send in so everyone can see the original work without me tampering it. Please and thank you.)
Pearlplusau animatic #1: The Great Divide (By Tripixle)
I believe this was the first animatic that introduced the AU.
Full video description and brief analysis below:
So in the beginning, we were given a glimpse of Pearl's original position, which most of us believed to be White Diamond's pearl. (This was before the canon origin of Pearl was released.)
Pearl had a brief eye contact with Pink Diamond's pearl while they passed by. There we can tell they probably weren't super close or anything, just Pink Pearl (who I will be calling her Coral from this point on) casually waving at another pearl like they were acquaintances in the same office.
After Pearl was assigned or "given" to Pink Diamond (without Coral getting hurt and replaced), she found her new diamond panicking over her burning throne while Coral was doing her best. Pearl realized right then and there what she was getting into for the rest of her gem life. She activated the sprinkler system and accepted her new role and post.
The next scene showed how Coral was a bit nervous around the new pearl. Her quick glances were noticed by the aloof-looking Pearl but her friendly handshake was finally started their relationship. (This is most likely how the two introduced each other similar to the short comic.)
We see Pink balancing on a giant ball with Coral by her side. Pearl came in, flipped out, and rushed to her now wobbling diamond. Coral was less worried but she joined in on the mayhem. Pink fell down and both pearls caught her. The trio, now laying on the floor, was stunned for a moment. Pearl got up and checked if her diamond was hurt in any way, but the diamond couldn't help herself and burst into laughter with Coral. It looked like Pearl was able to finally let herself go from her own strict codes and officially join the two as a group.
After Pink got her first colony, Earth, from Yellow and Blue, she had fun adventures with her pearls but found out how it was damaging the planet. She formed the rebellion starting with her two loyal friends.
After their encounter with the permafusion at the sky arena, the trio came to a rest and discussed their excitement. The trio accidentally fused from their shared excitement and startled the passing permafusion, who later joined in as Garnet.
The next scene cut to a battle with Homeworld gems, where we saw the Crystal Gems had the upper hand from the battle. Unfortunately, it was also the last battle as three diamonds launched a direct attack on the planet Earth. Rose realized what was truly going on and grabbed the closest gems to her, Coral and Garnet. The other closest member, Pearl, was too far for the leader to reach, but Coral was not one to give up on her companion. She screamed at Pearl, urging her to come over. She was finally within reach and into safety as the light shone bright green.
Skipping a few storylines, we see Rainbow Quartz being shown off to Greg the human. Coral looking a bit upset seeing Greg (or RQ?). We then move on to the talk of Greg and the leader of the Crystal Gems. Coral was found to be just as worried as the rest.
As Rose gave out her big announcement to the gems, Coral forced out a smile, trying to be happy for her leader while Garnet and Pearl took a different turn. Coral tried to keep the group together but failed to do so as everyone wanted to be alone.
Pearl was found weeping behind a stone hand by Coral. The two pearls wasn't sure whats going to happen, but they know they'll get through it when they have each other.
After that its a sequence of major events in rapid pace, from Steven joining the team, to Opals appearance, to the fight with Sugilite, to Coral's fusions with the gems, to Stevonnie, to the arrival, to the Malachite arch, to Coral's confrontation with Pink (Story for another time), to the Sardonyx arch, to Coral and Garnet's fusion, to the Rupphire wedding, and finally, to the Diamond days arch.

Aw man, I haven't seen this animatic for a super long time. So glad I was able to find it on youtube, which was re-uploaded by someone else after the original got deleted.
I'll be posting another animatic I found online, but the other two animatics are still nowhere to be found. To whoever's reading this, please take a look at your downloaded folder and see if you have the following animatics downloaded:
1. Listen before I go
2. Coral's part in "Here we are in the future"
If you've read to the end, I really appreciate it and hope you can help to spread the word about the missing animatics above. It will be a great help to me and the rest of the pearlplusau fans!
Most of you are probably aware of the deleted animatics made by Tripixle. To recap, she was getting busy with college and couldn't handle the workload. She decided to move on and remove all her artworks to a new instagram account, "tripixle archieve" and deleted her Youtube channel where she posted all her animatics. (More info can be found at the end of the pinned post here)
To this fandom, they are probably one of the most skilled and beautifully drawn animatics we have ever seen.
Therefore, I would like to request your assistance on sending in any Pearlplusau animatic done by Tripixle. I know there's someone out there that miss the animatics as much as I do.
The video could be on your phone, laptop, or any device. From these devices, you can uploaded them to a google drive. The link to the drive can be sent in for me to download. I'll upload them to this blog so that everyone can enjoy the masterpieces. Who knows, there might be new fandom members that have never seen this before.
So please, take a look in your downloaded video folders and send in!
This will be a great project for us to do, hopefully we can achieve this goal together!
List of animatics:
1. The Great Divide (The overall arch of Pink Pearl in the storyline)
2. Listen before i go (Garnet and Coral)
3. It's over isnt it (Pearl and Coral)
4. Coral's part in "Here we are in the future“
5. (Other animatics revolving pearlplusau)
The only requirement, it has to be the original, no edits, no voice-overs, no filters. We should get to see the animatics at it's purest! (But if the animatics ARE modified, I'll consider uploading them here after we have the original.
Please reblog and spread the word if YOU want to see the animatics live and well. Our goal is to have all 4 animatics or more uploaded by the end of October this year!
*Downloaded videos will be uploaded to the blog for every pearlplusau fan to see!
