AUGH. Thinking endlessly of how i'd love to adapt the entirety of the magnus archives into animatic for my own practice and aesthetics
Its majorly monochrome- in s1 the scenes outside of the statements would be grey, but so so slowly shifting to green episode by episode, and by the time s5 hits its nearly logo green. The statements start in the same colors as the 'real' world, and shift to more vibrant/dramatic colors as they hit their peak horror.
Maybe even thinking the fears have their own secret color wheel, and the statements slide into colors associated with the dread power(s) they seem aligned with, but that seems a bit much
Theres two playlists: 'The Magnus Archives animatics' and 'dont worry about it'. The first playlist only goes up to when notsasha is revealed to the cast. The second playlist animatics have a different design for sasha but everything is exactly the same. After the reveal all future playlist links go to the second playlist
The ritual events are more animated the closer to succeeding (or rather, 'succeeding') they get, and maybe more detailed colors or shading. For the watchers crown, john wakes up to partial animation (at least more frames than the rest has been) and full color for the rest of the apocalypse. The area in and around upton house goes back to monochrome but keeps the animation quality
Itd be fun to have a running bit that at the height of each story, theres a frame of the statement givers eye reflecting whatever horrors theyre peeping, but i can imagine that getting old. Maybe it could just be for live statements
I so so so badly wanted john to take the place of the statement givers on occasion while in the apocalypse, just for a choice few sentences once or twice per statement. He more or less keeps a neutral expression, or at least not one of fear, and keeps the outfit of whoever he's seeing out of. Theres so many good points that would look so cool with this. Imagine john telling off younger 'elias' in the memory of his office during rosie's statement. If nothing else i wanna do this bit at Some point
Had the thought that the end of 200 could rip apart into some kind of traditional animation style but that feels too. I dunno. Obvious? Overdone?
Certain i had more but thats all i remember at the moment. Hey would it be fucked up in a cool way if john, while taking the place of one of the kids in the dark domain statement, showed as whatever his kid self from his mr spider statement looked like
yall gotta stop saying "mcyt dni" when what you really mean is the members of dsmp or some shit cuz what my boy DanTDM do to you? did Luvstar break into ur house or something. did evbo kick your dog.

You are being hunted down by this entity for a week straight. That means you are being hunted by manifestations of this entity and might find yourself in similar situations to past statement givers.
This character will help you survive. Their role is to give advice and help defend you against anything that tries to cause harm. How good they are at those two things depends solely on who you spin.
Of course, this is a game. And what's a game without some rules? Spin this wheel to be assigned a situation that will either help or hinder you.
