I'm adding to this love pool. I was expecting either disappointment or utter glee(normally the former) when I saw there was a fanmade music video. I think everyone diving into fanmade projects- to a degree- feels that way. I was OVERJOYED. Any plans I had to give it a crack went out the window. I adored the design of the Cabinet Man, I loved the mixed media, I even loved that you didnt have to make it particularly gory or include any shock factor and -that- matched the tone of the song. I love, love, love, LOVE this- bravo to you and whoever helped you make it! I squealed the whole time.

[@raccoonja5905]

Thank you. I'm glad you love it! The design of cabinet man in his arcade form created my fellow student Angy www.artstation.com/angyschick .

How have I not seen this in the 4 years it's been out? 🤯 Idek where to start w how much I love this animation, it's a true work of art!! I'd be here all night if I were to heap praise on the sheer artistic & technical skill involved in this masterpiece, so I'm going to focus on one tiny bit. My favourite creative choice by far is at the moment where he grabs & devours the vandal. The switch in styles from clear pixelly colours to a scratchy black scrawl to a white chalk/tape outline is INCREDIBLE. It conveys mood, tone, & events so clearly without us ever needing to actually "see" a murder (not that there would be anything wrong with that - I'm just impressed at how well you pulled it off without showing it).

OKAY OKAY I THINK THIS IS MY FAVORITE VIDEO EVER IN THE WHOLE WORLD

[@raccoonja5905]

Thank you!

[@artandstuffproductions3640]

Oh god this song is sad. A kid, trapped inside the cabinet. Dying from heat exhaustion and thirst, he becomes one with the machine, and when a man breaks in and steals the quarters, he finally dies. He’s finally free, and he took down a thief with him.

[@raccoonja5905]

[@millicentwood549]

No words to describe it, but it's certainly something amazing! I really loved the different types of animation

[@raccoonja5905]

Thank you! I'm glad you like it.

[@pinkyylemon]

the 'this must be what love must have felt like' line is sad because it means that guy was never able to feel love until he was put into the cabinet

[@zrc44]

I might be 4 years late, but WOW, the animation and storytelling in this video is absolutely incredible. I appreciate how youve stayed true to the story the song tells

[@latias347]

This is amazing! I love your interpretation of the song.

[@raccoonja5905]

Thank you! I tried to animate something that sticks close to the song and it's theme.

Love the Steven Universe reference at 1:23

[@doggywampus904]

I just noticed that, and now im depressed bc I remembered that it ended lol

[@rotomfan63]

A lot of interpretations of this song assume that Cabinet Man kills the vandals but i don't think he has the power to do so. Think of the fact he breathes change, which we know from the lungs line and how the vandals took what few quarters he had. It's basically saying he killed them while suffocating. Which is possibly but for sure more of an uphill battle. Amazing animation btw. The pixel art fits the song perfectly and the slight changes in art style during the end and the police chalk drawing are great. I really like how the police chalk isn't pixel cause well, the game is over there

[@raccoonja5905]

Yeas, that's also a good interpretation. I added him killing the vandal, sice he sings the refrain again, wich says he can't be beat. So if he can't win, there can only be a draw, both dying. Thanks :)
