Ravenwell's Home for Orphans is situated on the outskirts of the town, run by the cruel and mean Miss Raven. Most of the kids there have been there for as long as they can remember, Onnie Miller included. With the legends of evil witches branded in her mind from all the books she reads at night, Onnie never suspects that she might be a witch... When Miss Raven gives a strange order to everyone in Ravenhill, no-one realises that it's a test to locate any witches in the orphanage... Now that Miss Raven knows the truth about Onnie and two other girls, she has big plans for them - but what exactly are they, and now that they know the truth, why is it so important for the newfound witches to escape Ravenhill and never turn back? ┍━━━━━━━━ ⋆⋅⋅⋆ ━━━━━━━━━┑ unravel the dark secrets of Blackwell ┕━━━━━━━━ ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ━━━━━━━━┙ ☆,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ ★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚★,。・:~:・゚ N O T E ☆彡 I thought I'd get a lot more 'you copied this' and 'you copied that' accusatory comments, but I actually haven't had that many, which is good. I've tried to keep this series unique as a Scratch series can be, but there's only so much you can do - as most series are aimed at a younger age, there are always a few key themes that pop up as they're easy to work with while working with a younger audience. One of these themes is definitely magic; you've probably noticed it in a lot of other Scratch series. I was actually inspired greatly by JA White's The Thickety book, which I am currently reading for the second time. Perhaps similarities stem from the book and Scratchers interpret them as those that occur in other animated series. There may be several other similarities that you notice. Though you are welcome to think what you like, you need not point them out. If it's something that offers no positivity or constructiveness, it needs not be said. In other words, like the old saying goes: if you don't have anything kind to say, don't say anything at all. Come on Scratch. We're over this. ☆,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ ★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ H E L L O ☆彡 So, what happened to The Power of Four? Let me explain. Making The Power of Four trailer before the episode put me under too much pressure to finish something that I had no energy for and hadn't planned out /at all/. In other words... procrastinator + pressure & high expectations = doomed to fail And the truth is, I grew out of it. After a while, the idea of The Power of Four didn't appeal to me like it used to. Though it was fun while it lasted and I'll always love the memories, I had to move on. Note: I'm sorry if you voice auditioned and never heard back. It's not personal. You were all amazing <3 ☆,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ ★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ O N A N O T H E R N O T E ☆彡 Lately, I've been feeling so uninspired and unmotivated. So when I wanted to make an animated series, I got stuck in with no hesitation. I developed characters, designed costumes; wrote, edited and honed a script, planned the storyline for episodes to come, recorded the voices, made music for the series and fine-tuned bugs. During this incredibly time-consuming process, I realised something: animating a series is a huge commitment. There are so many aspects that go into it, so much you need to do for it to be perfect. And now the first episode is finished! I wanted to keep it a surprise, so, surprise! Lol. Here's the first episode of Spellbound, my new original animated series. I hope you enjoy. This episode is by no means perfect, but lot of effort went into it ♡ ☆,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ ★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~: T H A N K Y O U F O R V I E W I N G ☆彡 ◎ Time: 1 month of working every day ▶︎ Run Time: 3:38 / Assets: 533 ♪ Music: Still Standing by Vexento, Virago by @ivypool2 ✎ Art and Coding: @ivypool2 ✲ Program: Scratch Vector Editor ➡ Font: @FontGod for 'Spellbound' logo ♥ If you read this far, comment theories for future episodes and your favourite character and why. ☆,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚ ★,。・:~:・゚☆,。・:~:・゚★,。・:~:・゚
