![J.P., NLE Choppa - Bad Bitty (Remix) [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/rBDa6BCvw10/mqdefault.jpg)
For those that don't understand, this is NOT about abuse but addiction - most likely alcohol. The entire animation is a metaphor for addiction and how, much like a beast; people lose more and more of themselves the more they allow something to consume them. Also, that is her father not husband or boyfriend but really it doesn't matter because it is someone she cares for.
The entire animation revolves around her trying to find a solution and him coming to terms to accept it. Towards the beginning, she thinks reminiscing about his old music career might help but it only seems to drive him further toward his instincts. The trumpet is symbolic of that moment as she plays it and his old records but he more or less seems uninterested or bitter because of it. Especially after he drunkenly plays out in the street and is berated by neighbors.
The father consuming the cat may mean he is symbolically "devouring" anything that makes her happy because of his addiction because addicts often forgo the needs of others to meet that craving or even bum off relatives or their own children to fill that need. Or it could represent she can never truly be happy because the thought of her father being miserable is always looming about inside her mind and consuming her thoughts. Thus, she turns to her second option - the muzzle.
The muzzle I think represents denial or a rigid acceptance. It's not gradual but sudden and anyone who has had an addiction knows this most likely wont work because you can't simply "stop" being addicted right on the spot. It's not healthy or reasonable to a person; addiction takes time to start and in turn time to stop. The daughter doesn't understand this. When she tries to put the muzzle on him, as another commentor said; he "feels betrayed" and lashes out in misplaced anger. Realizing what he has become he wears the muzzle and honestly seems to be contemplating suicide to either escape the truth or remove himself so he daughter can be free. But I think at that point, they realize what the best solution is...
It's her. I believe her removing the muzzle hints that she realizes neither the past nor the muzzle will help her father because they don't see him for what he is but she does (symbolized by the moment where she takes off the muzzle and we briefly see him for the man he IS not was). It's her love and dedication that made her father realize he needed to change because he loves her too - enough to dawn the muzzle and even maybe kill himself so she wont worry over him anymore. But luckily both them realize the best solution is each other and what they feel and will do for one another and the ending hints that the father isn't cured of the disease right of the bat but together they will work toward that cure as a family.
is it bad that I read all of that?
So long as you enjoyed it. Sorry if it was lengthy, just trying to explain a few things to help the locals out.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
BRAVO! BRAVO!!
A grown woman living with just her "father" in an apartment uhhh alrighttttt....
I think it is just the animation but it says in the description it is indeed her father. But I'll admit, she does look like she is maybe in her mid-20s or early 30s.
I liked how the entire story depicted its allegory about parents with an addiction (be it alcohol or drugs). It's like they're a whole different animal, one that's always hungry, always prowling for more, losing a little more humanity with each fix. And the muzzle represented getting help or rehabilitation. The girl was hesitant to use the muzzle on her father because it was a last resort. It was only once her father crossed a line that she made up her made to get him help (in the form of the muzzle). When he bit her, it represented how defensive he got, how betrayed he felt that his own daughter thought he deserved rehabilitation. And yet, he donned the muzzle on himself to admit he did need help. I guess, getting help isn't something you can force on someone, even with good intentions. First, they have to want to change.
:( welp never gonna happen with my dad
I think the muzzle represents her about to call the police because her father did some form of violence. Perhaps injured or killed someone to get more "food"
Him putting it on meant the father wanted to own up to his mistakes and surrendering himself to the police.
I dunno, this is just my theory
Whatever happens, I hope somehow, your home life can turn out for the best
If I could give this two thumbs up, I would. That was great, really great.
When a wolf can play the trumpet better than you can
One of the best ones The Animation workshop has ever produced
5:00-5:10 I like how it shows the daughter's thoughts: she's coming to terms that her father's addiction wasn't just something that happened overnight. Addictions build up slowly, one day at a time. And if she wants her father to break out of it, she must accept that becoming sober isn't an instant solution, but a gradual process.
WHY DOES THE CAT ALWAYS DIE?
MEGA GALAXY Animations WHYYYYY T~T it makes me sad
i cried now because that cat looks like with my cat (siamese cat)
MEGA GALAXY Animations cos dogs already die too much
MEGA GALAXY Animations because wolves are cousins to dogs and dogs hate cats so that's why the wolf ate the cat
Wolf Girl not all dogs hate cats, wolves see cats as prey.
that last sigh at the end really got to me ;_;
it's like when you surrender to someones embrace, when you're at your darkest hour....
Nooo! Not the kitty. It's too precious! Aside from that, love the art syle!
great werewolf kill animal and humans you kill @-@
This was so sweet i swear i almost cried at the end
why ?
Why do I feel like this is a metaphor for alcoholism?
because it is 😁
This is a great metaphor.
The wife catches him eating a live animal again (drinking again) and when she tries to muzzle him (confront him about his alcohol addiction), he hits her so she walks out on him only to return when he shows her he will muzzle himself (seek help/treatment for his addiction).
bowl4two I thought it was his daughter.
Mochni Monster
That works too.
+Mochni Monster it is
this is truly a masterpiece
Not a single word was said throughout the short.... yet so much was told. This short film pretty much embodies the power and beauty of visual storytelling..........
I know this isn't about real animal but my husky who's part wolf bite me recently and pretty badly , the muzzle scene instantly made me remember his face when that happened ...
Annie Mz I have two huskies my male die recently😥
Jeez can you juat stop...
I LOVE UNTAMED!!!!!! Adoro il significato e il simbolismo del video. Che ci fa comprendere come noi non dobbiamo farci divorare dal nostro lupo interiore ma accettarlo e VIVERE!
this was incredibly beautiful, I was almost in a state of disbelief when I saw the cat at the window. great job!
I came for the wolf in the thumbnail and didn’t expect this much of a deep meaning. Dang
This made me so teary eyed, I loved it. Great work.
Thought he was going to kill himself for a sec
Tia Luminescence same
I understand the meaning behind the story, but I didn't even read about it under the video til the video was over. What I took from this, is that this is what a lot of us veterans feel like when we come home and try to blend back in with society.
The style and amount of attention to detail in this is insane! :D
Wow! Really good work.
Beautiful art direction. The lower frame rate gave it a sort of stop motion feeling. Actually, I'd really like to see this in stop motion if you ever have the budget to do it. The animation generally had very good timing and acting to it. The faces were very natural and expressive. Very relatable.
The story was simple, but engaging enough. I think that a few more prominent elements providing insight into the relationship between the two characters would have helped me out. While it was clear that this girl was in an abusive relationship, I wasn't sure if it was a romantic partner situation or a father/daughter situation.
But yeah, all told this was really cool to watch. Thanks.
This was a beautiful animation! The art style the lighting the detail the animation, the story, everything about this animation is beautiful! It was well done and it's one of my new favourite animations on RUclips of all time. Great work to all the people who put their time and effort into making this masterpiece!
Is is very well done, I like the way you portrayed alcoholism and the way the story is told. Very well done
The ambiance is marvelous in this short.
Someone turn this into a movie please.👌💜
This is an incredibly well thought out animation that conveys the effect addiction has on people. The art style perfectly compliments the somber mood of the film, as does the grey/ blue air around everything. The lighting is beautiful, and the motion reminds me of films like The Nightmare Before Christmas, which I adore. Incredible job, you really deserve more attention than you do.
outstanding, phenomenal, marvelous these are but a few words to describe this short!
That was really cool. Thank you for the non-cliche Werewolf creation. As a Werewolf fan I very much appreciated this. Keep it up! :D
6:12 Keeps hurting meh ;-; WHY AM I WATCHING THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN
For those of you who don't understand;
I believe that this animation is a representation of substance abuse, be it drugs or alcohol, and the affects it can have on children because of that. To start, an addiction can make you piss away your whole life career, hence why "The Wolf" used to be a talented trumpeter, but is not anymore. In the scene where he's outside, playing his trumpet, it's a representation of him being drunk/on whatever drug he's abusing. He wakes everyone up, without noticing or even intending to. When the muzzle shows up at their door, I beleive that shows that child protective services are trying to help. Finally, the abuse gets so bad to a point where the wolf actually murders someone, be it a family member or good friend. The main character is shocked, and calls child protective services and the police. The wolf gets mad at her and attacks, hurting the girl. The girl runs away, and when she finally comes back, it may be a representation of rehab, considering that the wolf seems more calm and realizes he was wrong in his ways.
Fantastic! Absolutely adore the style you went for.
I love the artistic talent and symbolism used in this animation.Nice work!
This really deserves more attention, it's honestly incredible that this is a student film.
Well done!
great as always! keep up the unique work animation workshop!
My tear are already dry up but this story is the truly sadness.
You are a Genius, I love your work. Defenitley touched my feelins more than any 2h movie I watched in the past time. Keep up the good work and never let you down!
Even though Sally father is bad she always take care of her father
i literally just cried😭😭😭😭😭
This was very touching honestly.
NOOOOO THE CAT!!!!! IM CRYING!!!!! DX
I lost my Father to alcohol eleven years ago on Sep 26, 2016. The day after my parents wedding anniversary. He was drunk and in a motorcycle accident. I was 15. A month later I would turn 16. My Father was laid off from work and said he wanted to drink so bad after a year sobriety. The next morning....the last words I said to him was I love you too Dad, then we hugged. I could not believe those were my last moments with my dad....I am 27 going on 28 in Oct now. The guilt has ridden me since then. It was my fault. I should have convinced him not to drink with his family and drive home. But I did not know until then when the sheriff broke the news that Saturday morning.
benjamin alvarado auto correct you mean 2006 right not 2016
Omg!I love it!!! 🐺
Amazing! If only I was this talented and had your guys's king of motivation!
Esse trabalho continua sendo... Deslumbrante!
awesome video , another great work by The Animation Workshop
Great job ! I loved it and this beautiful music too
This seriously means a lot.
This was sooo amazing and touching. Srsly. Sooo great.
This made me cry...
i told tim to stop fucking cutting onions in here
a person WOW xD
that was beautiful and can you make part 2 please👏👏👌👌😳😳
This was beautiful. I had to try hard not to cry due ring this it's a tragic story and it is very well animated.
Wow, this was very touching. My first thought was that he couldn't play unless he was UNTAMED, in other words, playing the instrument on his own terms, his own self expression. And when he wasn't "allowed," when he was muzzled, he was miserable and he became that angry wild (untamed) wolf. This was more a story about expressing one's self the way they wished but those actions, though really not fair, affects others in a big way if they don't understand you. I didn't realize it was a father and daughter. Anyway, the ending was brilliant and I actually had a few tears when she leaned against his shoulder as if to say, "I understand" The screen fades to black the credits roll but the sound is still on. Suddenly you hear a wild roar and a scream along with crunching sounds....oh that's terrible. Sorry!!! haha I just had to end my comment with that last (terrible) sentence. Just lightening up the (or rather MY) mood! It really was a fantastic short video.
Poor kitty, RIP Puss..😭🐱💝💝💝
Absolutely gorgeous,
So much is expressed with so few words..
What a beautiful metaphor... the animation is on point. Congrats 😋😋😋
Adorable video movie
this was good on so many levels, bruh!
I can't understand why she doesn't like him being a werewolf. That is a one in a million gift, and she should be overjoyed. I'll never understand muggles....
Beautiful!
So good!
Well that was charming.
It was so sad seeing the daughter being terrified of her own father because he was a werewolf man but a few moments later she came back to him she realize why she being scared of her own dad because she was so caught up with his werewolf side she didn't think about her human father on the inside so she realize it doesn't matter what you look like it what's on the inside that counts her human father she loves.
kato64 That's not the message of the video most likely but good guess
Its about her dad being a alcoholic and have addition because he looses his career and the wolf is just the symbol of her dad addiction
Wait, then how did her cat die?
Joey Stikboy no, it's just symbolising him killing things she loves.
cool! I really like the plot to it!
the symbolism of this was great for describing an addict with a child and how much of a beast that addict becomes
That was beautiful.
I loved your work and great animation and you have a great future on your channel;)
Great job of animation.Solo quisiera que fuera una película con la historia de principio a fin.
that's a beautiful story
i see the people can't change.and it's nice to be akcepted in realy self
In love with this
This is soo cute I love it
Pure beauty
this gets you thinking about life
this was so good
this was amazing
To this day Carol is still looking for her purrfect little Tibbles.
lovely video!
It's a metaphor for addiction.
The wife catches him eating a live animal again (drinking again) and when she tries to muzzle him (confront him about his alcohol addiction), he hits her so she walks out on him only to return when he shows her he will muzzle himself (seek help/treatment for his addiction).
thats his daughter
Really well done
bitter sweet end, but so beautiful
When you're untamed af.
this is soooooo cute!! 🐺
Beautiful 👍
if im being honest I would have kept the ending where he was in fact human and he was just so disgusted by himself that that was what he saw himself as, a monster. That would have given the audience something more to think about
Incredible
It's too difficult to her father, in his wolf form, when he was eating meat, he loses control of his actions. Instinct taking over his within, but he can control himself to not harm his daughter. When his daughter tried to wear his muzzle with no bite muzzle, he's getting aggressive
Well done!
awesome...
Best film ever. o0o
This is beautiful, but the framerate gave me a headache :S
I really love this video, but I had to split it to 3 pieces.
the framerate is like that bc it's emulating that stopmotion animation feel
Is this cgi or Stop motion I can't really tell the difference, that's how good it is.
Amazing
I cried during this video
good job love it :)
很感動裡面的情節值得省思
Where can I find more music exactly like this? The soundtrack is beautiful!
What a cute animation
