Why

Why?

The title, "Why?", is perfectly fitting for this little short. Why would anyone make this? Why would anyone want to watch this? Why does this even exist? Why?

Like all of Tanaami's works, this is just another pointless exercise in experimental animation. No story, no characters, just playing around with visuals and sounds and repetition. In this case, reducing a short clip of two people boxing into black and white close-up pointillism.

This is the sort of thing that a second-year student would make, to ... try and impress their community college teacher that they are "edgy" and "pushing the boundaries". Or, maybe he was just hopped up on every kind of drug imaginable. Who knows? Or, rather, who cares? This, like the ENTIRE body of works by Tanaami, should just be relegated to the dustbin of history and forgotten. You'll get just as much enjoyment as you would staring at a wall for ten minutes.

Story
Thank god I saw the remix first! Watching this original was terrible in more ways than one. Bare in mind there is no plot and the same 'story' was used in the remix.

Art
Too many things went wrong:Pointless flashes were kept,every so often a countdown was done, the video was not detailed/grainy.

Sound
The sound here is completly random in some parts. Clearly noticable by the piano keys. In other parts the sound starts off strong and dies. No, the sound was not faced with a tech issue that was the design. Also, in regard to the sound for i would say at least half the film they used the same tempo. They just changed the pitch and speed. Lastly, every so often you would hear what sounded like a punch sound in those brief moments i would imagine myself punching the screen for i don't see how any sane person could sit back and smile as they watch this.

Overall: Awful as it was and boy was it, i saw the point they were trying to make. I could be wrong but this video was based from the male perspective of watching first generation television sets. From my brief recall on operation of them i found this video to be somewhat of a stretch to how the operated. In other words they tweaked the bad performance a tad for what i assume to have been comedy. Sadly, while that is an original concept of sorts that was a stressful time. Especially if you had money down on a game and you were desperately trying to figure out if you were losing or winning your bet. While there might be some mild chuckles from those that grew up in that age. I am sure they will agree with the newer generation that this is not worth their time. For who wants to watch a video if it is just going to bring up bad memories? In short if you want to step in the shoes of your parents of growing up on entertainment by all means watch this animation. But the amount of frustration you might feel from watching might cost you a new television. So, watch at your risk.
