Violent Aesthetics: Love X Death X Robots

Have you ever thought that a series can have a variety of styles and visual feasts?

Netflix recently launched a stunning work, "Love X Dead X Robots", which was produced by David Andrew Leo Fincher, Timothy Tim Miller and others. Interestingly, the first season of 18 episodes of video was produced by different production teams in different countries. The presentation styles and techniques vary greatly, but it always surrounds the theme: love, death, robots. The discussion of science fiction and technology in the film is quite valuable. It's like a "Black Mirror" series that keeps people watching one episode after another.

Adult Animation Fulled with Sexual and Bloody Violent Aesthetics

Love-Death Robot is an 18-ban adult animation. Although it is adult animation, the content is not based on the color of the fish, but describes various issues between science and technology and human nature. However, the technique is more realistic and bare, some of the episodes show multiple bare breasts or the third point, and both men and women have. In addition, some of the episodes have many violent scenes, so it is only before the film. There are warnings such as violence, nudity, etc. However, if you look at this series as a simple special-effect refreshing film or eye-catching film, you should not be disappointed, but if you look more attentively, you may get some thinking and discussion from the animated film.

Although it is a series, there is no correlation between the various episodes of Love-Death Robot, which can be regarded as a completely independent animation. Each animation is produced by teams from different countries, so there will be a great difference in the way of expression and presentation style. From the current evaluation, most people can find their favorite style and theme from these 18 episodes, which is also the recent Netflix episode. A few works have received such high praise and standard.

On the other hand, these animated works are all from existing science fiction short stories. Some foreign netizens have compiled lists and may see works you are familiar with. Each episode is only about 10 minutes long, and there is no burden to watch a few episodes after class, but don't read them in public, otherwise some episodes are easy to make people feel embarrassed.

In all the episodes, I was most impressed is "Trailer". "Trailer" is a very special animated work. It is operated by Alberto Mielgo, the former art director of "Spider Man: New Universe". The style of painting is somewhat similar to that of hand-painted and real-life shooting. Some actions will have cartoon-like adverbial effects. Personally, it is believed that it is somewhat similar to the style of Borders. The protagonist design was originally a female character in Spider Man, but it has not been directly confirmed.

The plot description is also interesting. The leading lady sees the hero killing herself in the room opposite the hotel, then keeps running away. Finally, she runs to the room where the hero kills her. But this time, she kills the hero, and is witnessed by the living hero opposite, which turns into a space-time cycle.

After reading all the stories, I can probably understand why this one has won the admiration of most people. For me, the greatest benefit of "Love X Dead X Robots" lies in "telling a story in a short time with all kinds of styles and themes." There are often times in life when stories are needed, no matter what the series "Big Truth of Small Stories" is, parents use storytelling to get it. Why do we need to tell stories when we preach management culture to our children and leaders? It's because stories are generally easier to persuade and move others. The same is true for film collections, long movies, micro-films and even MV. Directors and writers should tell a story well and convey the content and meaning of the story to the audience, just like Hollywood's three passages, which are well known to all. As long as the basic principles are mastered, the storytelling method of the type structure is generally qualified. Whether the audience can agree with its idea is a follow-up matter.

Of course, what I said before is only general theory. There are stories that are always very obscure from beginning to end but can always find the connotation from them. There are stories that are very interesting when you see them. The director has his reasons for not following the general method of telling stories. Is this not a good work? It can not be decisively denied, but it is certain that this is the case. Maybe it will not be popular with the majority of the public, because of the ever-changing works, we can constantly appreciate and explore works.
