• Oscar Winner Animated ...
Thank you all for watching and sharing.
Alberto Mielgo is amazing. I started looking at his work because of Jibaro, which is the best animation short I've seen in my life.
Same here, Jibaro blew my mind just two hours ago and I'm rebuilding it with his art
Same here
Same here 😍
Same here.
Same here
if this was completely animated, even with real people as references, then this is the highest quality short ive ever seen in my entire life, the slightly lower than average frame rate with the real human movements make it feel so life like it's insane.
If you haven't seen other work by this artist, I highly recommend jibaro and the witness. They both have crazy plots that fit the style perfectly
Humans as references. But wouldn’t that mean that they would credit some photography as well? I’m trying to figure out what an interesting look at the house. The people look real and photographed except for maybe the face or like it’s has an affect on it that’s painted. I am not a tech person
It's likely these are 3d assets and he draws over top of then for the stylistic look.
Could also be filtered 3D animation.
@@ghostderazgrizFor Jibaro, Mielgo and his team didn't even use rotoscoping. Considering that that project looks significantly more elaborate than this one, I doubt there was any tracing here. I hope he eventually posts a behind-the-scenes video so that we can get to know for sure.
Glad I found out who did this before watching. I despised Jibaro. Absolutely hated it.
Mielgo is one of my biggest inspirations, all of his work is just so touching and he truly creates masterpieces. The witness was my favorite love death robots episode and when I watched jibario I got the same feelings I had from the witness, I checked both the credits and it lead me down this rabbit hole of interviews and animations and character designs. Truly, Alberto Mielgo is a remarkable artist.
Can I just ask because I am so full of doubts - do you really think is his work is real? The Witness especially, it seems he just took live action scenes and painted them over? His oil paintings (most of them young naked females) also look as if he took photos and painted them over?
@@michaelkupfer3723 It's a Mastery. It's about practice and learning non stop.
@@michaelkupfer3723 it’s just references either from 3D sets or real pictures, most beginning artist are capable of creating realistic drawings as long as there’s a reference.
ha. I have had EXACTLY the same experience as you!
Alberto - you are a genius.
I just rewatched this film for about the 3rd or 4th time and it left me as moved touched and inspired as it did the first time.
"LOVE is.....A Secret Society"
True dat
Greetings from Hong Kong!
UA-cam casually dropped this to me and just with the main image i knew it was that guy from The Witness and Jibaro. Didnt knew his name but now he is one of my favorite artists
From the man that brought the amazing concept from Spider man into the spider verse, but Sony won’t tell you that because they fired him and took elements from his art into the film without crediting him. But still this short film is awesome 👍
Is this true? 😨
@@vun3001 yes, you can check on his website, just google 'alberto mielgo spiderverse'
This art style might be new to animated films but it isn't new. The guy didn't invent it. This is the style most acrylic characters would look like. Art styles can't be copyrighted anyway so it doesn't matter to credit other people. Yeah it can be annoying when people take a style you were doing that wasn't popular and become more famous but he is an artist so I doubt the fame is what motivates him. Still, your loyalty is what all artist want from people so for that you have my respect.
@@bleachedout805they were not talking about just the art style. if you actually spent 5 seconds googling, you would’ve found that he was the original art director for the spider verse film but Sony fired him basically out of nowhere and hired an entirely new team. He basically set up the entire film’s concept and art direction, and some of his work is still in the movie.
Oh that's why I thought why the animation looked so similar to Into the Spider-Verse. Ah so good to know. And the movie is so good, it's life changing. Thanks to the film maker. I'm glad they exist.
The suicide scene/story is soo... real. I really like how there was no real "added" sound to the scene, the only sounds were the world turning and that's the harshest realisation you hit when you're that level of depressed and or lack of will to live. The thing that kills you is the realisation how insignificant you are, there's no motivational background music that starts, no random person coming to change your life, not even sad music or mourning environments to give you a satisfactory death.
The only thing there is the world around you, it's the same as before you were suicidal, maybe you were even happy. You realise nothing really changed at all and nothing is going to change from you ending your life. There's no bittersweet pondering or appreciation for what you've lived so far, it just hits you how everything is as it was before, the world just moves on. In fact I wonder if they could've played this emotion up even further to make it even more uncomfortable.
Either way, as someone who went through 5-6 years of suicidal tendencies, I really appreciate that. I'm fortunate I never took the very last step or was stopped in my tracks/attempts, but the emotions (or sometimes the lack thereof) in those moments are unforgettable. Everything becomes so horrifyingly serene, it's like you're trying to find the cracks in the world, the real flaws of it that no one but you know of, and how you're just the most unlucky one. But when you stand there it just hits you that you're just one of many and time is a constant. But the irony is that it's this serenity that makes the last step so easy to take once you've arrived, it's like some twisted form of enlightenment. It makes me wonder if some brains are just wired in a way that makes them more capable of suicide.
This entire short film is beautiful, I love that there's no one strong message or "moral of the story". It's just a collection of a bunch of experiences and emotions that many people go through. Sure some were more extreme so that maybe not exactly everyone could relate, but for the most part its emotions that are a part of all of our lives. It's really cool to see them represented this way.
Beautiful comment.
@NomSauce Thank you for not taking the last step.
And thankyou for your insights, realisations and clear love for the world regardless of its complications.
Never has something been explained to me so clearly.
You said it. Thank you.
in the moments before the girl jumps off the building, i can feel my stomach churning with hers, the way the background moves as the camera shakes takes me into the moment. This is art.
Seriously I’d just take somewhere and go on but well they just want to play the game it’s endless 😑
Ah someone else noticed! The way the background moves against the foreground is called the motion paralax effect. It's very compelling and works in the heaviest most epic way with long lenses; they simmulated that effect brilliantly in this animation.
@@vice.nor.virtue nice to know it has a name!! Very cool
Odd I just think " it doesn't have to be this way" but same with street people, life can suck, just don't let it.
I really love the part where a couple is talking in hushed whispers about what color they associated with each other; red and blue. And when it came to the color of "us", their relationship - he thought of neon lights. So many colors at once that he wasn't able to define it into one color, but it's interesting to me that the neon lights were just the complementary colors of red and blue. The two of them as one.
Animations like this really make you realise how important this medium is and how much value art really has. Screw Ai, this art makes you feel so many things with just the subtleties, and that's something that could never be replaced. Let's cherish art ❤
I know I’m not the only one who came here from love death and robots. Bro is an artist!
Absolutely! Totally unique style and all very captivating
Is this from the same artist?
@@alirezanikpayyeah it’s Alberto Mielgo, when I saw that I remembered instantly of that episode of love death robots and yes after check it’s the same guy
@@nullsuthr4519 nice, yeah me too, the first frame trigger my brain that "oh, is this part of the love death and robots cut scene that I miss?!"
Interesting art style and thanks for the info❤️
This was, at once, so beautiful and heartbreaking. How much time is wasted between love and not being loved and how shattered we feel not being loved.
First of all, thankyou for putting your short out there for everyone to see, I hope you get more exposure after the awards.
I get really moved by your work
and second?
France (2023 Word soccer cup)
Wow... I was not expecting that. I watched The Witness and Jibaro and was amazed by both. Then I read the same creator did both of them, and found myself here. What a broad and brilliant mind. I cannot wait to see what else he does.
This is beautiful, really wish I saw it sooner. You made excellent use of animation as a medium, the building of tension, the use of colors, the atmosphere, the timing, the voice acting, it all comes together to create something amazing.
I’m still butthurt about how they never credited you for Spider Verse, when it wouldn’t have been what it was without you… really, really love your work!
So many people are living this life of loveless isolation in the middle of a crowd. I'm one of them.
Reminds me of a poem “The Genius of the Crowd” by Charles Bukowski
I think what you just said and what the cafe man says at the end that “love is a secret society” is really interesting. it’s something that you can’t understand or feel until it happens to you, until you find that person you love, and that person finds you, then you’re part of that “society”. Until then, you’re left wondering by yourself if that will ever happen while you walk past many others who know how it feels and more.
Or maybe I’m just yappin lol. But your comment made me think about that since I’m one of them too. Hope you’re doing alright though.
@mattymatt1283 Glad someone else understands.
As of late November last year, I found someone to join my journey; and I joined hers. We're very happy together. She rented her house out and moved in with me at the lake. We're both trades people that enjoy time off together. It's less than a year and I would feel lost without her.
We have each other, but notice that making new friends is a tall order. It's a tough crowd out there but we are positive, outgoing adults.
You are the master of your own destiny should you choose. Make right choices Matt and the universe will provide.
We are together 🖤
After nearly 30 years being single it becomes you and 'they' certainly are a secret society.
Can't emphasize how good this is. Congratulations on the Oscar Alberto, well deserved. Featured the Short on Film Shortage
Locked inside a depression right now ... this film was the first light I've seen in weeks
This short film deserved the Best Animation Oscar imo. Love this short film and can’t wait to see more from you, Alberto.
Considering how aggressive and chaotic his LD&R shorts are, its really nice seeing this more restrained, slower side to his work
What are his "LD&R Shorts"? I am asking, because I want to see more of his work. I love Jibaro and this one. Thanks!
@@invi_carlos "Love death & Robots" on Netflix. The other episode he directed is called "The Witness" from season 1
He also did a Ubisoft commercial which was in a similar style to those
Too much talent for one person! THE WITNESS, JIBARO and this one are all gems.
Utilizing sound in such a manner. Marvelous!
I was waiting for the scene where we'd see actual windshield wipers, and then I realized that's what love is. Parallels never meant to intersect- one always leaning towards while the other away- the back and forth can be fast, slow, yet always eventually at rest.
Really wanted to watch this for a while now. not disappointed. Amazing, incredible work, and the currently the best style in animation nowadays. Truly inspiring!
inspiring to what?
Thank you for capturing every moment of nostalgia and condense it into a masterpiece. I’m blown away by your art. The visuals, the conversation..it was like every thought/ experience I had that was unique translated into a cinematic reel. It’s a fast moving current story that’s real and raw, one that hurts, t’s art. I’m proud again of being part of humanity as everything and everybody else has decided on the cheesy narrative. If it wasn’t clear. I f@ckin love it. ❤❤❤
i will perhaps keep coming back to this short, everytime i feel loved, or want to be loved. Mornings that i wake up and theres no one around, evenings i wish to chase sun with a loved one, nights i want to be held in my dreams softly, perhaps even ravaged with love.
I will perhaps keep coming to this, in forms beyond the medium that a film is, letting parts of this seep and soak into my life.
Thank you Mielgo for enchanting us with things you make, and smother us with.
I got chills. This was truly a work of art. Thank you for sharing this with the world
How crazy it is to have to cover animated characters making love while next you can watch the latest update of war and men killing men irl. Good luck at the Oscars, I think a statuette wouldn't change the value of this work in the slightest, but I guess it helps open the door to future and even better ones.
This leaves me speachless. Bravo, Monsieur.
This is gorgeous, it transmits so many things with almost no words, the colors and the shapes aswell as the artstyle, im in love with this.
I love it. My favourite moment is on the beach, when the guy silently gives the girl a cigarette. I love how they don’t talk, and are just here. But they look so sad. As if the peace is temporary. The girl’s movements are beautiful, and this sun-kissed face…
this is what the Spider-verse could have looked like in another multi-dimensional universe
this is amazing! the art and animation details, the storyline, the work is insane!
A secret society of two. Who can’t meet anymore because there are too many distractions. Awesome video.
This has to be among the top 5 videos i've ever seen. so so incredible.
I broke up with my girlfriend 3 months ago. We've been together for 6 years. I thought I was doing better. I thought I was over her. Stumbling across this film made me realize how much I still miss her. Oh, I miss her so much.
I know not your story, but I do know that love never leaves us. It takes its form again in someone new. Best of luck getting over your ex girlfriend
Do you miss her as a person, a habit or a concept?
Literally had a very immersive dream of my ex last night buddy
A great piece on showing some scenarios people searching for love, and many just seem lost. Is it a secret society, or something hid from some and revealed to others? Profound piece of art. “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies,(they will cease; where there are tongues,they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.” 1 Cor 13:4-8
My parents always said, that love is made with closeness and time. Closeness being like how often you actually interact with one another, and if they are part of your day to day life.
This was an absolute masterpiece and perfectly captured all of the different variations and aspects of relationships and love. Sadly I could relate with almost all of the characters stories but I think that's the beauty of it.
Why is it you could sadly relate?
Oh my! ... Such an aesthetic treat ... coloured in with beauty and silence that speaks a thousand words. I never wanted this to end.
Every frame of the film is an art work! Love it
I always end up breathless when watching the studio's work, absolutely breathtaking
Some art strikes you with its brilliance, and THIS is one of those pieces. What an amazing talent and deep soul Alberto Mielgo is. A true maestro and I could not praise this any higher for it's direction, tone, pace, feel, and heart. Upon my word, this short film is one of the best things I've seen all year.
Every bit of intimate, personal , anonymous moments of life most of us can relate to, remember deeply and alone. This fabulous piece somehow gave a greater voice to all those forgotten instances where we thought alone and meaningless, powerless against one of the most well-garded secrets of Mankind that indeed take four little letters to write, a second to speak, and sometimes, a whole lifetime to easily miss. Thank you, a well-deserved Oscar, for whatever my critique is worth.
Sooo good! This film gets better for each time I see it, and I loved it from the start. You are true inspiration Alberto! I hope you win the Oscar!
brought me to tears, nothing does that for me. also the choice of attire for certain characters is really well formulated. cant wait to see what other projects arise.
This is art. One of the truest embodiment of art and such a great artist for you to be able to convey countless human emotions so easily with little to no words.
This is art. Humanity is art.
So very impressive. Thank you the entire Artistic Team for producing imagery with such substantial meaures of relatability.
Brilliant. Your art is incredible - truly breathtaking. But it is your understanding and insight into the mad complexity of the human condition and how you express it cinematically, is what makes you next level. Just amazing. Bravo.
I didnt know that you could raise the bar higher than jibaro. This is just completely mind blowing. Works of art are successful if it affects you and this has truly done that. The purposefulness of every tiny part of the design and the color choices is akin to a genius. Thank you. You're one of the best creatives ever!
Alberto Mielgo is some kind of genius. Jibaro for Love, Death & Robots was astonishing
best piece of art i've seen so far, we need more of your work Mr Mielgo, thank you very much for this one.
The Tinder scene is both hilarious and spot-on. There are so many 'smombies' out there!
I internally screamed when the whispers were said in Romanian , so cool!!
I would love to see a full length movie by Mieglo, brilliant
Without a doubt...this is a freaking masterpiece!
Never expected my action packed stylisti Alberto to make me cry, that was fucking amazing and it has so many emotions to it aswell.
12:15 really got me
This is wonderful.
A though provoking look at love, life, loss and redemption.
Masterful.
What a beautiful animation... made me cry this is just so amazing. You inspire me to want to create things that provoke the emotions I just felt.
Alberto is my favorite animator ever. I hope he gets hired for more stuff
this is so addictive to watch. absolutely loved every frame of this and the concept was astonishing.
Powerful, deserved more than one Oscar ❤
HOW is the lighting in this movie so good? it feels so real, are the scenes based off of photographs/footage i wonder? 😮 either way i loved this
Literally every frame in this short could be a museum level work of art.
The fact that the part from 9:18 is in romanian and I’m from Romania makes me fell proud 😎
Jibaro brought me here, it's already 1:00 am and I'll need couple of coffees for work in the morning, but I couldn't stop watching this masterpiece, Grande Alberto!!
This is a masterpiece in every way. I’m in awe! And.. ‘secret society’… I connect with that on so many levels! Absolute masterpiece!
This is one of the most amazing things I have ever experienced.
Texts in real life: Short, abbriviated words to throw as much context and basic information into a small message.
Texts in this short: **L O L I N T E N S I F I E S**
I'm in awe. You have made a masterpiece of this. What disconnected creatures we are fumbling around inside our heads and hearts and not our eyes and words and actions!
🏆AMAZING piece of art. I cant imagine the hours that went into this. this HAS TO BE the same people that did "The Witness" LOVE the style
This is the first time I saw Alberto Mielgo’s work. Incredible.
Un gran trabajo, gracias Alberto por compartirlo
Cant get enough of this style, its superb
Muy buen trabajo, espero que le den un Oscar. Una increíble animación, con una recreación del amor muy poética
This is just incredible
Lets go new Alberto Mielgo short
SMOKED HALF A JOINT AND BECAME FULLY IMMERSED. THANK YOU. THIS IS STUNNING AND MOVING.
🔥🔥🔥 Absolutely DOPE!!! grande Alberto
The raw emotion from the shots, creativity to sound design, It's mind blowing, this is now my favourite video on yt
Siiii!!!!...bien merecido!! Te descubri con "The witness"..me volo la cabeza..no pense que ese tipo de animacion era posible. Ojala el jurado piense lo mismo!!!
I don't know a word to describe the feeling i felt watching this short film but PERFECTION is the appropriate for this. Thank you ❤
Congratulations for being awarded the Oscar!!! Enhorabuena por esta maravilla. Sería interesante ver u escuchar las anécdotas del obligado paseillo que tuvisteis qué hacer por Hollywood semanas o días antes de la gala para promocionar The Windshield Wiper.
Incredible, I just felt raw emotions while watching this. It captured the feelings of unknown, frustration and relatibility like no other film did for me. It truly made me cry
Bonjour Alberto,
J'ai vu cette semaine ton court métrage "Jibaro" (Netflix France)
Tu m'as fais rêver comme il y a longtemps le cinéma (animation ou prise de vue réel) ne le faisait plus.
Quel beauté de film, nom de Dieu !!!
Maintenant je découvre cette chaine à toi et les courts métrages postés par toi, ce qui confirme ce que j'avais compris déjà : Tu es un génie mec !!!
Je deviens fan absolu !
Je vais te suivre de près (depuis ma distance de spectateur averti, bien entendu) Je hâte de voir la suite. Congratulations !
clearly a love, death + robots episode
Maravilla. Te mereces el Oscar, suerte!
Alberto Mielgo is a real genius! Please keep creating!
I will say I enjoyed "The windshield Wiper" short more than the "Witness" and "Jibaro" combined from Love death and Robots, this in my opinion is my favorite shorts of Alberto Mielgo.💖
Awesome & Beautiful ... This is Life !!! Cause soon enough we will die. Thanks for this moment ... Life goes on
All of these "shots" are so beautiful! I loved every frame of it, also the meaning behind it but I'm sorry I was sooo distracted by the beuty of the animation!! And this style amazes me... Alberto Mielgo has ALLLL MY RESPECT, truly, this is amazing and also inspiring! My eyes & ears feel blessed! Thanks a lot, lol!
This is a trip. It's a front-row seat on the sidelines of life, and it is beautiful, exhilarating, sad and scary in equal measure. It's a showglass, displaying life in different colours, and beckoning on you to pick the one that resonates with you and wear it.
The art style is such a beautiful design that enriches the storyline. I love it a lot. I need this to be made into full movies or series with all the characters and their background stories. Props to the team!
I love this kind of animation followed by an adult themed storyline. Tell me, Did you guys animated some shorts in Love, Death, and Robots? 'cause those shorts are my favorite in the series.
It's actually the same guy, Alberto Mielgo. He has worked on the episode "The Witness" and "Jibaro". He has also worked on the Into the Spiderverse movies. I am sure he wasn't the only one working on these tho, probably lots of other people behind, but he's the one who directs the style
mr Miego is amazing as always! Great animation and style, hope to see more of movies like this.
Посмотрел первый раз - просто понравилось. Второй - заложил себе в голове визуальный образы, возникающие почти с любой близкой мне литературой. Третий раз - в слезы
Amazing, master Mielgo. Congrats on all the success on this.
Me encantó, como con pocas imágenes se puede decir tanto. Hermosa producción.
These animations this person creates are the oddest but realist of any. The visuals and sounds plus gut punch value is exceptional.
Cuanto me alegro que tu obra sea la mejor, con Jíbaro alzaste el nivel a otra dirección, ahora el mundo no podrá ver atrás.
This is so relatable! Thanks for this. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks like this during a project.
mate, i dont care for the story one bit but the visuals are a master class in animation. just spectacular.
"Ganz grosses Kino!"
Cinematic art at its best. Amazing short.
