    That nature doc sounds rad. But yeah, with digital production and cheap drawing tablets you would think there'd be more narrative animation knocking around? Alas the internet seems not to have helped.

    Yeah it's like, a game does oft comprise all the elements of film and more, but the programming is eased by the software frontends I mention, and you can do pixel art, have text box cutscenes, a game can be as simplistic or complex as you make it. Plus you can program music in trackers or midi or chiptune stuff, one-person game projects are not unheard of because so much technical knowledge abounds.

    That kind auteur myth is pretty cringe honestly, in film and television it definitely does not exist. Most games are team projects too, like Celeste does not claim a sole creator, it is teamwork. That shit is bad. The "written by" or "directed by" should be better, but a lot of people just attribute sole authorship to a writer or director anyway, lol. David Lynch is a hack =)

    I love super autistic, same and it's rad, thank you for the soapbox ramble tbh.

      Yeah the Youtube algorithm demands regular videos of the same type of content, so it basically crushes anything creative unless it's already funded somehow. Pretty depressing.

      Yeah definitely. In the spirit of the craft of filmmaking, I ask "Who is the guy in charge?" /j

      Thanks for being affirming, I really appreciate it. I'm often met with blank stares after I come back to reality from a ramble like that irl lol

        yea The Ides of March 2012, I remember... I wish Youtube had more animation stuff. The channel Vewn has some killer little narrative animations if you aren't aware, which all fuck.

        Lol, always struck me as really silly. Double bonus points if the director secretly had a critical partnership with like, the cinematographer or someone, and as soon as that person was removed the director was revealed to be a clown. Teamwork!!!

        No prob, aside from the fact I base-level really appreciate infodumps, this subject is neat and interesting, great thread. I only don't respond when my brain is melted, I love big paragraphs tho.

          I had no idea, thanks for sharing!

          Triple bonus if it was a cis white man skating by on the work of a marginalised person
