Why Avatar's Art Direction is a Masterpiece

[@terrified057t4]

Incredibly sad how an animated show was focused on how shots are staged, when the live-action disregards it completely, going for generic angles.

[@theamericane2655]

Movie or show?

[@Just_kaay-9]

Live action is bums,the casting,writing and choreography are trash

[@thalmoragent9344]

​@Officialchinyanta Much agreed. Fell asleep during the first episode and didn't bother much with it

[@wt5098]

That's what happens when there's actually planning before actors stand in front of a camera. In the modern age of green screen acting, everything is added in post-production so they want the most generic shots possible

[@lancelloti.]

I hope you enjoyed my first video. Just started this channel, subscribe pls! (So you can say you were here from the start) I have many videos prepared for the upcoming days :)

[@miro.georgiev97]

Wow, this is your _first_ video? 😮 I would be forgiven for thinking, "Good video. I wonder what other subjects this person has covered?" only to find out this is it. The visual presentation is amazing. If I had to point out a flaw, and one that you're probably aware of, it's that the audio is rather too low in average volume and of markedly lesser quality than the visual presentation. Even then, I'm not complaining. This is your first video, after all. I can't wait to see you do hour-long deep dives on whatever interests you.

[@cristianorozco534]

​@@miro.georgiev97this is his first video in english but he has a main channel in spanish with more videos even better.

[@nathanielschwartz425]

I think this is the very first time that the first video of a KZbin channel is also the first video of theirs that I have ever seen.

[@ГеоргиВълчев-ъ9д]

You've had a previous channel, right? RIGHT???

[@cailin5301]

​@@cristianorozco534 what's it called?

[@samuelbaum1204]

Just binged all your video! Some of the best film and storytelling analysis I've seen in a long while.

[@lancelloti.]

thank you bro! just uploaded a new video today :)

[@YudaHnK]

Same here, i will see this with my kids

[@qqncpsp]

This video feels like the first part of a longer video.

[@toubi4316]

I also honestly felt as though I was in the middle of the video during the ending, or perhaps as though I were near the beginning.

[@jamesdenoguitar]

these are really high quality videos youre surely going to pop off

[@lancelloti.]

thanks bro!

[@JoshChristiane]

So true, Avatar is an incredible masterpiece! This series will stand the test of time. Great video, Lancelloti! Really enjoying all of your content.

[@msav]

your videos are AMAZING! Taking popular movie topics and bringing something new to the table every time, not one miss! Keep them going!!

[@trevorpacelli8056]

Videos like this prove why Avatar: The Last Airbender is perhaps the best animated series ever created, and far surpasses the quality even of other live action series made for adults!

[@Gabriel-xh4yf]

True!!

[@MrMic_Makanaki]

Best animated series every created is Attack on Titan

[@alexgomez6723]

That’s debatable I feel….maybe best American kids animated series…..certainly a good contender.

[@victordayet]

I really like that you made your video about avatar with the same screen aspect ration as the series itself. It makes me feel like I'm watching the show instead of an analysis video.

[@ipodgoon94]

Stay true to you and all will fall in place. I loved this video and the Andy Serkis video.

[@ZoraTheberge]

The anti-war message was really in the zeitgeist too. It felt powerful to flip between Avatar and like, morning news coverage of the war in the Middle East. Both live action remakes lack that urgency.

[@miera1029]

congrats on getting a viral video. this one is also great! keep it up! very originial take on things and interesting to watch.

[@brist8337]

Awesome video mate! I really like this kind of content, keep it up, you're gonna be huge

[@lancelloti.]

thanks bro! lets hope you are right 🙏

[@rotastella9252]

Truly an amazing take on the art direction! Especially the asking why is so important for storytelling!

[@kurtadams4791]

Fantastic editing and excellent analysis!!! You did a wonderful job integrating the interviews and white arrows and outlines to show shape and form! I can’t wait to see more from you!

[@johnflanagan7870]

shocked to find out your channel is only 2 mo. old. this is really polished stuff; excited to see where you go dude

[@gravy7861_]

Not here from day one, but I've ran through all your videos, and I'm so excited to see where this goes

[@shay_shei]

The editing on this was amazing

[@kikorushii]

This is so well done😮😮😮 I’m so surprised you really showed me things I didn’t notice that much. This is such a good analysis and the authors are so good at world building omgg 😲😲😲

[@lenadoubleu5916]

I totally fell in love with your way of analyzing. Your videos have such a high quality, thanks for your work!

[@jooei2810]

I just love these essays which go beyond the art of media and dissect the meaning, art, script and the end result in a comprehensive dialog to us mere mortals.

[@wolfleader17]

You touched on a lot of the creative and art decisions that made the show wonderful, would love to hear you go more in depth about them. Especially the bit about culture, with war being the antagonist.

[@thebillmasta3236]

Hey man, I just want to make a suggestions and not trying to hate. To me at least it’s very apparent around 5:15 and 5:30 you repeat the same line almost verbatim. I haven’t watched finished the video before commenting so I’ll let you know if there’s any more, but trying to work on that would help a lot. Great video so far, the only thing is literally the way one thing was said and the with this being a new channel I think it’s an amazing video. Good luck and keep at it.

[@CaptainSteamCloud]

Insightful as hell! Keep up the good work!

[@lancelloti.]

i will! thank you

[@demondmayk0l]

I like your well made content i wish you the best of luck with your future projects

[@Lessareve]

Just discovered your channel, it's so interesting, and now I discover you have a video on ATLA ?? Gosh, I rarely pushed a subscription button this fast!

[@niberjack5134]

This is a great analysis, keep it up!

[@MalvinaDeClares]

Fantastic video I think I'm going to binge watch all your videos now

[@gabrieljesus8847]

I could watch one hour of this! Amazing!

[@kiamlambellissimo]

Hey friend, just binging through all your content after finding your channel (Congrats on the breakthrough with the Serkis video ;) ) I would be curious about some of the sources you use for your video. Would you consider posting some of these in the video description? The interviews and videos of traditional martial arts were particularly interesting to me. Best of luck.

[@porkydorky]

These are some great videos man, keep it up bruh

[@boina__]

Estoy seguro de haber buscado este video hace unos meses porque quería mostrárselo a alguien, a pleasure to watch it again with this twists.

[@Mar6008]

Love your videos! This is really helpfull for learning about writing/animation thank you!

[@foreq4894]

Hey, I can tell you worked a lot on this video, so I was hoping if I could view your script for this video. Its almost like a very fluid essay, each point connecting to the previous. I want to take inspiration from this video to understand other aspects of the show, and life in general. Thanks!

[@belaa9352]

Man i love your videos please keep it up man ❤

[@dan.almanac]

Great video! Looking forward to more content! :)

[@Artistwithpurplehair]

This is why I'm not too worried about the next Avatar series. If the earth avatar is going to be from a modern or futuristic world, then they'll definitely take ideas from their original draft of the show. They probably have cool ideas from that time that we haven't had the pleasure of seeing yet.

[@ALPBORACANPOLAT]

Awesome video deserves more views

[@Thebroshow13]

Great video my friend ❤

[@KoolManPhat]

Can’t wait for this video to pop of. I’m using it as inspiration to rewatch avatar again

[@lancelloti.]

enjoy watching!

[@lerenardlibre4434]

Great video :)

[@suto5704]

Great video

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

I have to say, I hated the adaptation. I thought it was the overuse of the Volume, but it's the cinematography as well. Thank you for your insights on the original.

[@louiithecat]

this series is the GOAT of all animated series and there is no was to change my mind.

Fire nation = US Literally the same thing going on in real life

[@AnotherWS6]

I literally just binged ALL of these videos. All of them. And thank G this is the last one that I haven't watched. Because if it were the first one it also would have been the last. I don't know what these stupid looking characters are, what they are about, I don't even know what he's saying because I zoned out after two minutes of honestly trying. So again, thank the Lord and sweet baby Jesus that homeboy decided to pull his head out of his ass and not do "trendy", "cool" things like the above who gives a S space monkey and went with things more than twelve people have seen and enjoyed. -----Subbed and can't wait for more. This guy's gonna take off.
