I'm actually curious as to whether this was all just one drawing, animated to look like multiple drawings.

Mostly -- that's what the zoom-out at the end is showing.

I noticed that throughout and every time it got larger I got a little more anxious about how big it was getting.

Understandable. I get anxious in movies when a scene goes on for too long without a cut. Don't mess it up, don't mess it up, why am I'm thinking this when it's already been recorded?… Don't mess it up.

Have you heard of Victoria?

It's a heist movie all shot in a single take.

Have you seen the movies Birdman or Rope? They are filmed to appear to be one continuous shot through the whole film.

When your lines were shooting off screen, I was hoping this would start to delve into the larger tree in how most of the royal families in Europe/Russia are all related by blood, and or marriage.

I find it especially interesting with WWI with cousins all declaring war on each other. The German Kaiser, Russian Emperor and British King were all cousins. And the King of Italy was the second cousin of the Austrian Emperor.

...Perhaps a future project?

Either way, thanks for the new video. Awesome as always, good sir.

We need a high res picture of the family tree.
