Shelter



Hi guys today i’ll talk about something very interesting
“Porter Robinson”
Have you ever seen this name anywhere (on the net; on youtube principally)?


If not you should click the link down below in order to check out his latest video


If you have already watched it take a look at this video by Gigguk


Shelter:

Some people don’t like it (though, to be honest, it was difficult to find them). The reasons were pretty different from person to person.
Here is what i think:
The music, the main/most important part of the video becomes nothing more than a background sound because the attention of the watcher is all focused on the video that was, in my opinion, what made this song go viral.
So, let’s talk a little about it shall we?

The video is about a girl who lives inside a world that she can reprogram with her super-tecnologically-advanced drawing tablet and, fortunately for her, even though her drawing skills suck, the world still looks fucking perfect.

Here is an example of her drawing abilities

Apart from this i think there is not a story until the minute 2:29 (more or less), not because the video is not good or something like that, but because until that moment the girl is showing us what she can do with her tablet in her lonely world.

Loneliness…

It’s the main theme of the song. Because of this we can continue crying until we die dehydrated and here comes in the song (a strange dubstep song, very ripetitive, that helps the video conveying this sad emotions).
The plot ends with her discovering that she is alone in a spaceship connected to a strange machine that keeps her alive.

Well fuck… I could kill myself…

Conclusion: i heard rumors (i hope they are wrong) that said that someone wanted to create an anime series based on this video.

For or Against it?
Well that’s not so easy to say, I would be very excited and at the same time I would understand that “Shelter” lost its uniqueness: in 6 minutes they expressed a lot of emotions (sadness, loneliness, happiness…) and in order to achieve this level of expression they utilized every frame they had (in fact the end result is amazing).

In two-three days i'll publish the review of "No game no life" stay tuned for that! (it was a fucking nightmare publish this post :D )

Hope you found this interesting

See ya nextime Owo
