Stolen from WormsignVore: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/924905
The reason I didn't flag it was because I didn't know if I should report is as "stolen", "spam" or perhaps "inappropriate" (because it was rated E despite being NSFW).

If the movie was stolen from another source: STOLEN
If the movie is a low-quality shitpost that breaks the rules: eg. gameplay footage: SPAM
If the movie is produced using artificial intelligence: AI
If the movie is misrated: IMPROPER:
This won't remove the movie, If it breaks the other rules, use the other categories

that's maybe not the end of this conversation, a quick read through the author's other submissions are showing me that many other pieces from this author were created in Aurastudio.tv
now the fun act of verifying that the submissions were actually made by humans and not a computer
I just don't like the sentence, produced by (a program), directed by a human
digging into it more, its a program that was created by Leo campasso, who sounds like a bigshot in the professional animation world, and it seems like Leo is using the program to create the animations with a team of other creators, much the same way that we would use gmod to create animations, buuut this Aura Studio program has AI capabilities

Would've blammed it even if it wasn't against the rules just for calling it a speedpainting instead of a time lapse.

Stolen from Emily Youcis, as stated by submitter ZammyEldritch. Investigating her further, I also found an artpiece she admitted to stealing from Youcis:

So, what's the extent of the theft here? Is it just her character, or is it traced, or just lifted from an existing animation? The sentence in the author's comments is ambiguous.

I found a source here https://youtu.be/ea_eQy-kRI8?si=DbJtsvZ1CMaMTl4A, but it might be possible that the author of that video on YouTube is the same author here. However, given that the OP also posted stolen artwork and that the original video is months old, it's incredibly likely that the submission is stolen.
I will say that in my personal opinion, saying "as stated by the author in the description" shouldn't be used as the main evidence of something being stolen unless it's a link to stolen audio. I've seen submissions giving credit where credit is due in the description while still being its own original work, and there can always be translation/grammar mistakes and such. It's always important to try and find the original source!

It's a tough one for sure. Emily was quite famous on NG some time back. I think the character comes from this movie,
but as to how it's been done remains to be seen. Personally I think Emily's works are much crisper & cleaner & smoother.

The first guy's a bit sus:
For comparison, three other movies that are completely different, here's one of them:
In the YouTube version, an artist and voiceover artist are credited, neither are credited on NG, and both of which were paid off Fiverr.
So wait a another popular NG Person became Crap?

No. This is not about Emily, who hasn't been active here for years, but someone who used one of her designs (though he did credit her in the description).
Ohhhh i readed it wrong

It could've come from an earlier animation that never made it to NG, but it had to have had a source, whether it's deleted or not.
