it's been a while! im back with a very exciting plushie campaign with makeship :D i wanted to try making a meaningful animation including the plushie, and ended up with the optimistic counterpart to my "plug me in" animation. "plug me in" was about insecurity, whereas "turn it up" is about self-love and self-acceptance. i tried to make this as comforting and light as possible, and i hope you enjoy it!! i don't want to give away too much, because i love reading your theories on the symbolism in my animations :]

The way I see it, there isn’t some elaborate lore behind these videos and the gray girl. It’s quite simple, at least to me.

The gray girl represents the darker, more lonely and cynical side of Cudlil. She’s muted and faded, she’s hurting and been wounded. Thus all the color and life has bled out. We see this with the Plug Me In video most clearly, I feel. As in that video, the real cudlil is distant and lonely. She’s isolated and sad. Drained. Plug Me In simply being in reference to how she wants to be recharged and feel alive again. To no longer be distant and lonely. Yearning for companionship and meaning. In this video, we see she’s finally got that wish. She’s found someone, or people, who she cares for and who care for her. Thus, she’s able to leave behind that darkness that once made her up. It’s still there… a part of her… but it’s not all she is anymore. When she leaves, she leaves the plushie to act as the companion for her old self. As said old self is confined to the apartment, since that’s where she was made and why she was made in the first place. But now, not even that old pain is lonely. It lingers but doesn’t sting. It’s just a scar, a reminder. One that’ll allow Cudlil to live her new life and appreciate her new companionship to the fullest.

[BlockOFish]

Your animations are always so gorgeous. The colors are vibrant but toned down, so things always give off a calm vibe unless you want to portray something discomforting or sad. Another fantastic video!

I always love looking for the stuff drawn in the background ❤

I don't care how long it takes between animations, the quality is always commendable.
