Download "STAY CALM 2021 - Five Nights at Freddy's Animated Music Video"

Since this video is going to upload as a premiere, I figure a lot of people will be reading this before the video starts, which is great because I have a lot to address. Of course first thing to note is the title. This video is labelled Stay Calm 2021, as it is a reflection of my progress throughout 2021, it is not named based on the year it releases. Also going from 2020 to 2022 in the Stay Calm series would just be weird. Secondly, the upload date. Yes, I know, it's late. An entire month late, almost. This is credit to a variety of factors, mainly due to the use of Blender as opposed to SFM, which I utilised for the first 5 animations in the series. One thing especially to note is the render time, which added up approximately to just over three days, already exceeding the time limit for the original plan in render time alone. Being more free to add what I wanted and creatively adapt to the workflow of Blender did allow for more creative and ambitious shots, it also consumed more time although I believe I made a good choice in releasing a better video later. Can I guarantee there will be more Stay Calms after this one? Being made in Blender, this video certainly marks the end of an era, to say the least. SFM was what allowed the absurd tradition to stay faithful to the original rules for the last 5 years, and now I've been able to create something much more visually appealing at the cost of breaking the tradition rules. I do have plans in mind for potential future Stay Calms, although I cannot guarantee I will have the time nor motivation to see them through to the end. What I'm saying is don't expect anything, but don't expect nothing either! To reiterate what I say every year, these Stay Calms serve as a personal challenge to practice and learn the tools at my disposal as an artist. I understand some may not appreciate the time I sink into these videos, being particularly "unoriginal" and "repetitive", I do believe that the Stay Calms serve as an accurate reflection of my progress as an artist and it's always interesting to me to see how I've grown. If you don't like them, don't watch them, it's as simple as that. Lastly, I'd like to share with everyone watching (and waiting) the official Jeff Burgess cover of the original song. Jeff Burgess is the singer of the original Stay Calm (playing the role of both the night guard and Foxy) who has created a cover of the original song with new vocals and instrumental in February last year.
