[SFM BATIM] COUNTING SHEEP 2020 REMAKE

Exactly 365 days later and here we are! My official remake of SAFIA's "Counting Sheep"! I had so much fun working on this and I hope you all thoroughly enjoy it as much as I do.

It's crazy to see how far I've come over the past year. I've improved so much with movements, composition, and lighting (or at least that's how I feel about it. What do you think? I'm genuinely curious). I'm so grateful for all of you who have decided to stick around. If it hadn't been for your support and uplifting comments, I don't think I'd be at this point today.

Again, thank you all so much for joining me on my journey thus far. I'm super excited to see how much more I can grow and improve with animation as a whole. Here's to future projects!!!

I've been getting a pretty good amount of comments on both versions of this that "oh, it's a FNaF song, not BATIM"
*NO.*

[kebabkyle]

*Give this guy a round of applause everyone, they made possibly the best Bendy animation to date*

[valesbridge_yt]

2:21 Bendy riding bertrums ride is too pure for me!, he doesnt want to hurt anybody, he just wants to have fun!

[SkylarNightz]

Give this guy some credit over here. He brought this song into the BATIM community. *claps hands vigorously while forcing friends to clap as well*

[flamxiety]

I got literal chills from this, gee, the movement is so clean...and how you put the entire story/game in it without 'messing up', that's really well done!

[RouxProd]

This honestly came out better than I expected.



And I expected it to come out godlike. =)

Even after 2 years, the animation still holds up.
*Edit:Nice*

Honestly this has to be one of my favorite bendy animations, ive never seen a bendy animation so like, creative but still story driven. I haven't seen an animation this refreshing in a time!
Excited to see more from you my guy!

Ok so
When I first watched it those 2-3 years ago i was really convinced that this was a batim song (i was more invested in batim than fnaf at that time, still am) and even now i can say that everything fits PERFECTLY with the song. The voice in 1:47 fits so well for alice and overall her motivs. All the details taken from the game and transfered to this animation are so well planned. The end especially "never get no sleep" has so symbolism in the context of batim, by that i mean the cycle, because HENRY NEVER GOT ANY SLEEP. IT ALL FITS SO WELL I LOVE IT

[TheRandom]

I absolutely LOVED this song back then. I completely forgot about its existence, but when YouTube blessed me with this masterpiece again I immediately recognised the song's name and now it's all came back to me!

This is honestly one of the best SFM Bendy animations I've ever seen. I don't know why your so underrated, but you definitely need more attention!

[OldErickZSEZTalls]

When Alice plays her part it sounds like her!! (My fav parts are “I wanna let you down”, and the clock at the start) this song is perfect for BATIM btw

[DraghulGaldana]

Ok, let's see the checklist:


Spectacular animation: ✅
Understandable story: ✅
Doesn't mess up with something absurd: ✅
The lyrics match (makes sense with the animation): ✅


Alright, going pretty well so far! Let's see some optional/extra points 🤔:


Storyline from the game: ✅
No anacronisms/timejumps (eg: from Boris to Laurence): ✅
Recreates frickin' parts of cinematics exactly like they were in the game: ✅✅✅✅


Overall, a more-than-great animation video. I absolutely love it! Specialy this (1:47) part, with that ultra-menacing Alice and coincidating with the lyrics.

To be honest, it's quite weird when your close to 10K, from this animation, I literally thought I was looking at some 100-500K youtuber. I'm really impressed, the way you've made the animation, and somehow made it so that your computer didn't die throughout animating or rendering. It's truly a piece of art!

[sabersfm]

This is seriously one of the best BATIM animations I've ever seen.
Plus the song choice IS SO GOOD.

The usage of the fast spinning carousel at 2:19 is amazing! It fits perfectly with the beat drop of the song and the intense music.

[Avid_CJ_Enjoyer]

Damn. Still vibing to this in 2023 and still can’t get over the animation. It looks like it was done by a whole animation studio.

[huh..]

"Do you know what the most frightening thing in the world is? It's fear" "Did you plan on going to bed in the near future?" "no." That got me omg this song is amazing thank you for this amazing piece of art.

[kattherandom]

My sister: Did you plan on going to bed in the near future?

Me at 4 AM in the morning: *N O*

[ghosted_raven]

I cannot tell you how many times I have watched this and how much it means to me. My friends and I have all played BATIM but I am the only one who understood the story. Everyone else hated it because it was to subtle. I did hours of research to figure out what had happened and why exactly. Thank you SO MUCH for making this! Keep up the good work!

[The_Exorcist]

Came back to this, still one of my favourite animations to this day, and absolutely beautiful
