Intro: 0:00 - 0:18 Song: 0:19 - 4:53 Outro: 4:54 - 5:00 AXOLOTL by: bumr —— Late August, I was struck with an idea for a Gravity Falls fan project that I dubbed “i, the gold,“. September 1st, I started work on it, and said project would all begin with but a fun little fan song called AXOLOTL. I posted a small piece of this song the same day I began it as a teaser to TikTok., and very unexpected to me, it garnered a lot of interest -- so I made a few more videos, a crumb here, a crumb there... But. Taking in a long breath here. An accrued 200k views on TikTok for the teaser content alone, many insanely awesome animations and edits to the clips of a WIP song, 37 hours spent working on the project, not including the hours falling asleep every night to the very unrefined renditions of the earlier song (I counted 11 total different versions!!!), 30 odd something hand-drawn animations made in the span of two days and about a 36 hour long all-nighter to get this video made so it could be posted on the day of its release -- BILL IS HERE. I was unfortunately not able to get it out by 101 PM like I had planned, but all things considered, I couldn't be happier with this little creation of mine. The journey to this point was CRAZY for no reason, and making everything for this song and video definitely was the most fun and fulfilling experience of my “career“ so far. I just can't believe it's done and I don't have to work on it anymore?! All my yapping aside, please enjoy this month-long passion project. And stay tuned! There is more fun stuff like this to come :-) If you got this far in the description, clearly you're cool -- I never do anything accidentally. Everything has meaning. Find the secrets. Live laugh love corn on the cob Bill Cipher. -- WHERE CAN I STREAM AXOLOTL ?!?!?!

A: Without spoiling too much, “i, the gold“ is a Gravity Falls fan project, and is also the name of the album that this fan song and more will be a part of. :-) WHAT I USED TO MAKE THIS: MUSIC: FL Studio the plugin ZGameEditor Visualizer for some of the fun visualizations you see throughout this video EDITING: Hitfilm Express ANIMATING: Procreate Dreams for all the screenrecorded fun! thanks hirsch! you did not fall off!! & A deal with Bill Cipher --- THE PROJECT: SOCIALS: SUPPORT ME: --- DISCLAIMER!
