Filmmaker Lee Loecher proposed to his high school girlfriend using an animated version of themselves in the style of “Sleeping Beauty.” His girlfriend’s favorite movie.
On his YouTube channel, Loecher explained that he had been working with the illustrious Kayla Combs for about six months to create an animated version of himself and his girlfriend Sthuthi.
He said he came up with the idea when a close friend was going to propose to his partner. There he proposed to record a video and that the character “give” the ring to him, but his friend said that “was not his style.” Loecher never forgot the idea.
A few years later, when things got serious with his girlfriend, he decided to retake that idea and make it come true, the only problem is that his girlfriend’s favorite movie was animated. He began his search for artists who were familiar with the Disney style and thus found Kayla, with whom he worked non-stop with until he achieved the final result:
“When they see the hidden camera scenes at the beginning, they can see me whispering the words. To my luck, Sthuthi was very immersed in the movie and didn’t notice it, ”said the filmmaker.
Loecher posted the video on Reddit, where it went viral and the internet has been filled with reactions and comments regarding the proposal.
Game over he just set the bar
