Song: John, Take Me with You - JW Francis

This song came up on my Spotify earlier this year and my brain wouldn't let me stop imagining the singer as Garfield singing to his beloved Jon Arbuckle. Most of the time it seems like Garfield is pretty apathetic towards Jon, but I think deep down he'd be broken without his sad human companion. I'm no Garfield buff though, so I don't really know, haha.

This animation took me longer than expected, it started as a little side thing I was working on while working on the Streetpass video and like usual I found myself putting a lot of time and effort into it. I really wanted to play around with compositing with this, so I went for a 90's VHS look, I think I was successful??

Thanks for watching!

    He's not upset because he thinks he losing Jon, he's upset because Jon's taking Liz to an Italian restaurant and Garfield wants to go along.

    Everybody is talking about Garfield not being a cosmic horror for once- Meanwhile, I'm surprised Jon somehow lasted 50 seconds without screwing up his date 😅
  • no one is talking about it so i feel the need to say this from one artist to another, not only do you have a genuinely pleasant and fantastic art style, you're clearly extremely skillful in both drawing and coloring/shading, and your animation skills are top quality. This is one of my favorite animations currently and you should really be proud of yourself for making it! also i love how towards the end the singer kind of sounds like a higher-pitched garfield.

    Garfield's apathy being due to genuine depression is a thought that kinda hit me like a truck
  • @axelprino
    It's nice to see Garfield being a funny melodramatic cat again after so much fan content depicting it exclusively as an eldritch monster or in a depressing way.
  • @AMentalFailure
    this cured my irrational fear of death and brough my dog back from the dead, thank you
  • @PepperBell-oj5e
    I love how his face changes to that last, super simplified expression. I like to imagine he’s going: “Oh hey he’s back!”
  • @thehoodedman4271
    The fact I cried to a Garfield animation is pretty special. Holy shit, the animation is so gorgeous.

    I made a garfield cult at school, it has a locker with no handle that my friend figured out we could open with forks, and now we have a garfield shrine, and I'm going to make a meeting today to talk about this masterpiece.
  • @katamari_
    i legitimately love the way you draw garfield and pretty much everything else
  • @GreenArc
    I would never be brave enough to make a sad garfield AMV
  • 0:40 Love that sound and face. All worth. Also, glad to see non-creepy Garfield stuff out there still.
  • Finally! A refreshing Garfield content where he remains a lovable comic feline and not turning him into Lovecraftian entity.
  • @TrishDaFrog
    I honestly can't explain how well the color scheme, style and music correspond to each other so well. THIS IS SO WELL DONE! (Also, I love the slight glitch effect)

    this makes me cry so bad, so many lost years
