YouTube's official description

Source: the uploader's own description on YouTube. The analysis above is YTBVC's own.

Project for my Time Arts class. It's a music video/storyboard-type thing of the Decemberists' "A Mariner's Revenge Song". This song has been one of my favorites and (along with the rest of their music) a source of inspiration for a few years now, and I'm happy I finally got around to making an adaptation of it. Music by The Decemberists Drawings and Editing by Natalie Riess (Me)
