PHONKY TOWN_Non/Disney Villains (vent)

⚠ WARNINGS ⚠
W4r scenes, v1olence, flashes and fast images
This video is NOT intended for child entertainment.
This video started as a simple idea "wow how cool would it be if I put the marching hyenas scene to the rhythm of Phonky Town for an Halloween video??".
Of course, it had to develop into something I unfortunately didn't foresee. As I looked for visually matching scenes and focused on just that, I started feeling uneasy.
This feeling became straight up discomfort when I ended up with a complete video in my hands, discomfort and shivers from the pure dystopic anguish that I somehow shoved into it.
Sometimes you read "in this art piece, the artist expressed their fears and emotions in such and such ways", and I think I can check that off my hobo artist achievement list.
I unintentionally made something that gives me anguish and discomfort, vent art if you will.
I haven't taken my eyes off of news from the European front, and I can tell you that the gas prices aren't what's worrying me, and I just couldn't get out of my head that what I was staring at was nothing less than a glimpse of the future.
I'm aware of the immense privilege of growing up in a place where everyone around me could say "it won't ever happen again here" and "we learned from our mistakes, so maybe the shattering of that fake sense of security is what's been getting to me. I look outside (and, given recent events, inside) my country and ask myself "when will it happen next door? When will it be our turn?", and nothing is scarier than that.
PS: I willingly avoided using clips from movies that were based on real events of the last century (like Waltz with Bashir, Persepolis, Grave of the Fireflies, The Breadwinner, etc), as they made me feel sick with discomfort.

[@Cyadical]

The meaning behind this video showed wonderfully. I felt the uncomfortable feelings represented throughout this edit. Fascinating how movies you grew up with that bring comfort can be used in such a powerful way to express current events. The simplistic editing style making it even more powerful too me personally. There’s no glamour in it, just raw emotion.

[@HadesCaveAri]

That's ... That's an accurate description of the video. Thank you so much 🥺❤️

[@zensinfx]

Arianna, it might sound weird but I am happy about this video? I think its a vent for us all and it makes us feel something relateable Reading your description defently makes me understand you, specially cause I was born and raised in germany things like this should never happen again and its a gigantic tragedy because it doesnt look like an end for now. The marching and war scenes are obviously perfect fitting for this edit but I also wanna point out scenes like from TLK where this "brutality" is showen, since for me the REAL BAD thing isn't that people have to run and loose they're homes but that there are monsters in our "society" and you can specially see it in this war, I can still not believe how other humans can just do these bad things. (in public I shouldn't write much detail but I think you know what I mean) In the end I wanna thank you again for making this video, if been following it on discord and I was like "omg do I really need to wait till the 31th October". This vent is so relateable and it feels like it's made for the most of us. So thank you again for making us feel a little less lonely with these sadness and fear 💚

[@HadesCaveAri]

You wrote such a long comment and I don't even know what to write in response. I don't know if it's the language barrier or because I don't actually know what to say but... thank you. For your understanding and your support. Really.

[@angelictofu]

Utterly brutal edit. The song choice being so distorted helps to convey the fear of the unknown very well, but at the same time because of clips like that hyena march sequence from tlk, it's also a very uncomfortably familiar fear too. It's been terrifying to see that horrid beast fascism crawl out from the shadows over the last few decades, all of its violence and how powerless one feels to stop it. I think this video is the realisation of what the psychological horror genre looks like in the animash art form.

[@HadesCaveAri]

I'm Italian and I'm living in Italy, so the part about fascism hit me right in the chest :''') Especially with the brand new government here :''') oh Lord, it won't be fun. Kudos on you to have noticed it, it actually was my thoughts when I was editing that part. Love your overall analysis of the video, it means so much to me 💕🙏

[@RadJack14]

The imagery in this video gives me goosebumps and its themes of war and violence definitely go through to me great job on this

[@ClubAmador2012]

1:04-1:08 That clip sequence is definitely my favorite one in this one. Not only does it sync to the music very well but it's also very....jarring to watch 😂

[@HadesCaveAri]

YES IT'S SO FLAWLESS GNNNNNNN Slick like oil

[@tagman1084]

One must remember that warfare and destruction are both human elements, just as love and creation. I hope you felt at least a little more at ease after this video. Great work behind it.👍

[@HadesCaveAri]

Thank you so much 🥺❤️

[@RambunctiousReptilian]

Although I cannot deny the impressive editing as always, I truly like the underlying meaning behind this video. A conflict could happen anywhere, and it always hurts, no matter what side you’re on. I know the wording of this may sound mean, but I truly do admire the fact that those thoughts are what pushed you to make this video. On a more serious note, I do hope you’re doing okay as I’ve had some of these thoughts as well, I wish I could give you a hug through my screen lol. But anyways, a beautiful video as always.

[@HadesCaveAri]

Yes sure, I'm ok since I'm away from the main conflict in Europe. But I really appreciate so much your caring, thank you 🥺❤️

[@ST.a_VR]

0:37 that's a badass transition right there

[@CandyBunnyArt]

I love this piece of music, I just like some of phonk songs. I read the description, and I really didn't realize that I might think about certain things differently than before. But that's how it is sometimes - for a long time we have different matters on our minds, and sometimes we cannot think of the most important from a different perspective that affects us more. And that what was in my stupid head. On the other hand, animash is powerful

[@HadesCaveAri]

Your "stupid head" is 100% right sweetie ❤️ And yes, the Phonk songs are lit 💅

[@loodgack]

War is happening in my neighbourhood, so I kinda feel this video. Sadly. But topic aside, how do you not have more subbers and views??! I couldn't say any other yt channel suddenly, who always brings QUALITY edits, music videos,meps etc. Crazy! I keep rewatching your stuff!

I don't know if I can say anything about this that hasn't already been said, but I think this is absolutely one of your best videos. The editing is excellent, the imagery is powerful, it's so emotionally loaded that it's almost uncomfortable to watch, but I just can't stop watching it.

[@HadesCaveAri]

Thank you so much for your comments, it cheers my day up. You're so nice! And sorry for the bad feelings tho 🥺

[@woah_there]

I was so happy when I say Guardians of Gahoole! It was always made fun of in my family meanwhile I was so in love with it. Thank you!

[@fallenlass]

Right soo.. Ever since I heard this song, I always see the scene the TLK and the hyena march and god that was so satisfying to see someone finally use it and it worked flawless. I can see just how much raw inner anger their was in the editing, the mixed emotions all circling. This was an amazing vent.

[@HadesCaveAri]

You're so nice to have noticed it, I actually feel uncomfortable every time I rewatch it ;_; And thank you for your compliments 😭 from an amazing editor it's really powerful to me

[@fallenlass]

@@HadesCaveAri I think, maybe you do another phonk, but maybe loop it? I want to my hand at phonk editing, but.. I'm so out touch with my editing =/

[@HadesCaveAri]

@@fallenlass The good think about phonk is that works great with very raw editing as well with a more VFX one. So really, you can do a great video with even a low effort 💛🔥

[@saltylilimp]

Wow... Usually your animash are so full of life and energy, but this one... I know it veils negative emotions related to what's been going on in Europe for several months now but the intensity of the emotions in the video is so powerful, it's impressive. I was watching the video, I was stunned, fascinated and at the same time a little scared. Such work and devotion to put these kind of emotions only deserve praise. I know that it started from a good feeling and that the result became pure anguish, but it is still magnificent and well done. Bravo!

[@HadesCaveAri]

Thank you so much for the essay in the comment, I really appreciate it 🥺💘 And yeah, the feeling it's the same, I still watch the situation from far the country but still it's scares me so damn much...

[@HadesCaveAri]

It's Atlantis by Disney! And you're so nice, many thanks 😭❤️

[@xivyskyrose]

Wow. This is extremely amazing. So simple but so cleanliness… I see why this was a very hard thing for you to edit. I get like that sometimes (with my editing), when it comes to editing scary movies or anything unsettling, it really makes me feel what you described from the description. Things happen a lot like this, conflict happens. This edit depicts a great example of how the world is today, it’s not the same, everyone is all negative and such. And it’s just not great, almost everyone dies too. I just hate how the world is today. But anyways. Amazing edit! :)

[@HadesCaveAri]

@@HadesCaveAri Oh, there's no need to apologize, it’s your vent and you hit that subject right on the nose too! It’s certainly a step in the right direction of recognizing how your art could be perceived by you and your audience. People can see art in different ways compared to others and honestly, it's for the best to have a range of views. As I said, you said it perfectly, it's an anguishing topic to discuss and give thought to... but this video is still very well made! I wish you the best 💜

[@HadesCaveAri]

@@LenaHyena Oh sorry, I guess I expressed myself badly before! I agreed with you for your feelings on the video and that I was sorry for provoking them anyway, since they're not a pleasant ones ;_; I am extremely happy that you have found an artistic vision in this video, for me it is still a "new thing". I've never done a "vent" video before, so... I actually don't know how to handle the comments I guess. You've been so nice to me, thank you so much! 🥺

Edit is really great. I don't know that i should use "wonderfull" (maybe if i would focus only on visual and sound effect. I started listening to "phonky" music like two weeks ago and it really hit me. Like I'm also (don;t know i can call mysefl artist so i will use creative creator) and stimulation through music is very important for me. When I heard this type of music first time I got some dark themes around my characters or them enterning some berserk or beast mode. It;s something dark and powerful at the same time. Also I understand how did you feel during making this edit. I'm living in country next to Ukraine, friends from my university are from there. And to be honest, I'm afraid that one day the same situation could happend in any other european country... I hope you're feeling a little bit better after making this edit. Art is a good thing to let go your emotions when there is too much of them in you :)

[@HadesCaveAri]

I also use music in this way: if the music doesn't remind me of any possible imaginary scenario, then I don't like the music. I guess it's a video editor's professional divergence. Also, I send you a virtual hug. I am afraid and I am in Italy, I do not dare to imagine the situation in the countries on the border.

This edit was wonderfully made to describe the frustration and angst of current events, and I can relate with your vent, even though I live in another country. I’m an American, and as a libertarian who is passionate about civil liberties, being anti-war and opposed to authoritarianism in all stripes, I feel that since the pandemic, the value of individualism and less state coercion has been replaced with a growing lionization of authoritarianism on both the right and the left. In addition, I think our current President is doing a terrible job and has some authoritarian tendencies himself, but I am not too hopeful yet that the replacement will be any better. Let me just say that I am not looking forward to a Biden vs. Trump: The Sequel in 2024, which seems to be where we’re heading in the U.S. 😞 I find them both to be extremely divisive figures, and I feel the country doesn’t need any more division than it already has at the moment. Not to mention it seems like you have to pick a side and either be pro-Russian or pro-Ukraine with no room for compromise or empathy for the other side, like it’s simply picking a sports team to be a fan of. Whoo, personal vent over. 😮‍💨 Anyway, I also love that you included some Ghibli films in this edit, as I feel that the films that are war-themed or demonstrate how destructive power-lust or black-and-white, either/or thinking can be are more relevant than ever. Also, can I say I love how seamless that transition at 1:23 is? 😮😃 This video has more heart and soul in it than most music videos or songs with a sociopolitical message nowadays. You inspire me to make AMV’s one day, and maybe a vent/protest AMV of my own one day. 😄Thank you, and I wish you a happy holiday! 🎄🌎🕊️☮️🇮🇹🇺🇸
