patreon: / lowercasejai twitter: / lowercasejai lboxd: letterboxd.com... Let's gather round and discuss Krobo Productions' masterpiece. Would you make me a sandwich?
Absolutely loved this. I can see your channel growing significantly if you keep this sort of content coming. The production quality was great, and I felt you had some intriguing commentary about the nature and impact of Fesh Pince and YTP as a whole - especially when it came to the graffiti comparisons. However, my biggest takeaway from the video was that I was once the #1 teenager of all time, putting all other teenagers to shame. The undisputed champion of former teenagers, if you will. I'll wear that title with pride.
I was quoting this one as a teen and going into the end of my 20's still quoting it to my brother every now and then. You were the #1 teenager of all time hahaha
oh my god. the comparison of ytp to graffiti is absolutely inspired. i always feel like a total nutjob whenever i try to explain to people why ytp can be and is a genuine art form (which has happened...numerous times) but that example conveys so much of the idea so well, i'm obsessed. also the point about a lot of ytp being made out of love for the source material is a particular favorite of mine; intimate knowledge of a poop's source can often make way for some of the best and most layered bits/gags. your own affection and respect for the subject comes through in spades! great insight, and awesome work. i can assuredly say this has reached its target audience lol
This video definitely isn't helping the "CZcamsrs will make a 30-minute video essay about literally anything" allegations, but I've gotta say: you sold me on this one. The comparison to Passage à l'acte is what cinched it for me. Yeah, if that's an experimental short film that's worth academic analysis, why isn't Fesh Pince?
A comment like this makes me wish I was still in high school film class, armed with this logic. Take that, Mr Rothman!! Does this mean Skibbidy Toilet is legit too?
czcams.com/play/PLtHP6qx8VF7dN2FziRQD5U7XsBnELgpal.html Back when PBS Idea Channel was a thing, they made this playlist which was the only thing I'd previously found doing this sort of analysis of YTPs
there was a The Incredibles YTP i watched years ago as a kid with a specific joke that has been burned into my psyche ever since, where Mr Incredible says to Syndrome "let me go, or i'll break a toothpick" and then we cut him hanging defeatedly from his chains in the BG as Syndrome in the foreground says "i knew you couldnt do it"
I received a message today from a friend who was delighted to unexpectedly hear me namedropped in a youtube video essay. Thanks for complimenting my old (non-video) essay -- you're too kind! And I appreciate the work you've done here (lots of good observations). Fesh Pince brings people together! - Jarrod White
1:17 “there are some people who definitely won’t find this funny” I remember when the third one came out, one of my friends was forcing us to sit through RWBY but me and the only other friend in the call who care about YTPs told him to watch fesh pince 3 instead He called both of us insane and went back to rwby
I gotta know…which volume? I think the hardest thing about liking YTP is having to explain why you like them. Unlike any other thing I like, I find it impossible to explain YTP. Even if I say that it’s cuz it’s utterly abstract and incomprehensible, it doesn’t explain why some YTP are good and others suck
As someone who likes both YTP and RWBY, if you told me another Robotnik YTP dropped, I would gladly take a break between which volume I was watching and the next to see what wacky mishaps happen with one of the best Eggman incarnations. I actually did that between sets of Garfield and Friends episodes with "Robotnik Captures Smiling Friends" and it was one of the funniest Adventures of Sonic YTPs I've _ever_ seen.
@@ma.2089 I think I'm able to articulate why, especially after seeing this video: it's stupid. It's the kind of stupid that hits you in the gut when you're off guard, and that's what's funny about it. It doesn't have a rhyme or reason or a particular setup, if you go with the flow you'll probably get hit with a chuckle out of nowhere at the very least. Even in the video essay he interrupts himself when he gets to fanfiction and that took a bit of wind out of me because I wasn't expecting it. Stuff is just funnier to me with less setup.
this starts incredibly strong and i think you really elevate it as the vid progresses. i actually thought "it's like grafitti" halfway through so when you got there i went "OH" out loud
Comparing YTPs to experimental film was mind-blowing. I've heard it be called digital graffiti before, but comparing it to Passage à l'acte really threw me for a loop. Hearing how young Krobo was is incredibly inspiring too, as a young adult trying to break through the mold. I've always been fascinated by how CZcams Poop is so underground and yet so popular, it feels like everyone in the know of the internet enjoys YTP, but everyone outside of that shell has no idea what you're talking about. To use the iceberg metaphor, it's at the very thin line between the surface and under the water. I'm so glad it persists to this day.
The day I realized the guy that made Bustin' is also behind the Potter Puppet Pals videos blew my mind. It really is insane how much of an impact one creator could have back then.
This video was a blast to watch. Two things in particular I liked, even though they're supplementary 1 - The reference to those weird Minecraft/Roblox channels you see in comment sections you've never heard of yet have 20 million subs. 2 - The use of VA11-Hall-A music. Instant dopamine hit when I hear any track off that game's OST.
i also love seeing how former YTPers develop their skills. case in point being EmpLemon, who uploads some of the best video essays out there. great video man!
Dunno why, but Jeffrey's line of "I've been saving that to calm myself lest I get too giddy from rubbing my CoC" had me in stitches the first few times i watched it lol
Hi I'm from Brazil, I remember that back in the day YTP's were very popular here, It was one of the first big style of video content that I got into on CZcams, even years later I still find the old videos by people like Mestre3224, Bomberpooper, Tecraudio, RudeboyProductions, and others hilarious as hell, and I'm not the only one. The community here was very active, collaborative supportive and certainly one of the most talented Unfortunately, YTP's stopped receiving that much attention here around 2017-2019, the reasons vary a lot: These videos take a lot of time and effort and the access for editing programs or computers in general is very low, and since here there is a higher demand for easily accessible content YTP's weren't very viable. Also alternate "meme pages" and reaction channels started stealing videos and profiting out of it, most of the time without giving credits. Both these things alongside a political crisis and the Elsagate controversy culminated in low effort meme videos being uploaded constantly with "YTPBR" slapped in the title, most of it were made with only views and attention in mind by people who felt like the classic Poops with niche based inner jokes and style were "too weird and vulgar for CZcams". This got to a point where to the general public, YTP's were another trendy style of "funny video compilations" that just fade away like any other fad, meanwhile classic YTP creators started quitting or following other paths, some became streamers, musicians, animators, etc. Some people still make YTP's, with some even trying to archive and document old channels and videos, but mostly these are made with no intention, expectation or target audience behind and thus they don't receive that much attention. Probably it's better like this, I will still check out old dead channels just for the nostalgia and check out whatever some of these people are doing nowdays.
acho engraçado que sempre acho um br nesse tipo de video kkkkkkkk. a cena de youtube poop no brasil era muito boa, hoje em dia se discute muito sobre roubar conteudo da gringa, mas desde dessa epoca a gente fazia, so que de nossa forma. Nos tinhamos nossos proprios memes, sources e tudo mais, o que faz nos diferenciamos deles, isso faz pensar como as diferenças culturais que existem na vida real se traduziram na internet, com cada pais ou povo tendo seus aspectos unicos
This is a fantastic video, thanks for making it! A while back I came across an audio post of just the 'Uncle Phil you've got to kick that man's BUTT' clip and it sent me into an absolute fit, I've gone back to listen to it multiple times whenever I needed a pick me up, but I'd never even heard of Fesh Pince, much less knew that's where it came from. Wild that a piece of art can evolve and transform and spread in ways that the artist never intended and make people feel so strongly even when it's so disconnected from its original context.
Ytp artists are a different level of comedian. Shoutout to Krobo and all the real OG's. Stand up comedians are just public speakers. You guys are the true heroes behind the curtain, I mean I grew up idolizing guys like Seth MacFarlane. But to be real it was the people making youtube poops that always made me laugh harder than any media that exists in the world. "Can we just take a minute to appreciate" doesn't do it justice. Kroboproductions, Deepercutt, Walrusguy, DurhamrockerZ, Cs188, those are names that will go down in history. Laughter is the best medicine. Thank you for your service.
Really kind of amazing the way the people who were invested in the YTP community are /still/ invested. To this day I can still rattle off the entire intro cut scene from Hotel Mario, the Faces of Evil intro, and that anti smoking Sonic Sez. Such an incredible time to be on the platform
I can’t express enough how awesome this video is. It justifies CZcams Poop’s existence so well and even elevates it into a rogue art form. I’ve been watching YTPs since I was in high school and I’m 30 now. I have a juvenile sense of humor, so these have always been funny to me. But now I can appreciate them on a much deeper level, which is something I didn’t even know I needed. 😂 thank you! Fantastic work!
I loved your point about teenage art of expression and graffiti. CZcams was a much different place in 2009, for better or worse. Everyone was trying to carve out their own little corner, trying to figure out who we were. I was a stupid 15 year old who barely understood the world around him when I first discovered YTP through smash bros content. It massively shaped my identity in the years to come. Tangibly related, I massively fucked up by parasitically claiming an audience I did not deserve. I ran the first memorial channel, and turned it into a me show. The things I liked I featured on the channel to claim my corner of the world - instead of just reuploading the videos. I still cringe about it and wish I still had the password so I could fix my mistakes, but you live and learn. All part of youth's mistakes. (Especially seeing it kind of referenced in the later half of this video brings back the shame years later.) As for a final point, the graffiti example reminds me of a man I think was called David Bradley Bailey, a researcher from somewhere in the southern US who rose to prominence around 2011 in the community. His main point as a scholarly outsider was that YTP was a reclamation of commercialized culture, by those outside of the cultural mainstream. (As predicted in which I remember to be Remix: reading & composing culture by Catherine G. Latterell.) Just for a second, I did not feel like an outsider everywhere, but a part of an avantgarde artist collective ready to take on the world. An online Basquiat if you will. We were going to burst into the mainstream, something was brewing. But as always, the man won. Maybe it did go mainstream after all in the form of modern day meme culture, just with 10 years internet hyper evolution tackled on top of it. Apologies for all the disjointed thoughts, this was a great video and I can't wait for the next one.
Hearing you breakdown what makes a YTP work reminds me of my own realization I came to about them years ago. That being. If a film is like a novel. Then a YTP is like poetry.
Man King of the Hill YTP is a big reason why I love King of the Hill and even why my pfp is a small edit of Hank with the Saiyan scouter. Those early day of YTP were peak youtube.
Incredible retrospective. I've been a YTP fan more or less since it started getting popular, sometime between very late 2006 and the spring of 2007. And holy crap, I completely forgot about Waldfield, I'm definitely going to check out that book.
algo recommended me this one and i'm so glad i took a chance on it - i'm going through your whole backlog now. the quality, depth, and originality of your videos are really refreshing. i hope this one blows up and i hope people check out your non-shitpost analysis as well!
I'm glad there are people who really appreciate YTPs. Not just watch them, of course there is an audience for YTP, but people who understand them. Great video
How interesting this video came very close to one Tumblr text post that got very popular talking about how ytp's should be valued as art. Is it just me or there has been an explosion of appreciation of art these last couple of years? I've seen more and more people classify more stuff as art, and honestly? I couldn't be more happy
Maybe thats because Only now the internet and the new things It has created have been a thing for enough time for people to actually start to look at them more critically and see them as art
I cannot describe to you the moment at which this video has come into my life. Weeks of trying to figure out how to make fesh pince palatable to my friends and family. “There has to be a way to get them to see the genius in this, there’s something so uniquely compelling here.” Thank you for your excellent work, I’ve found that even my own appreciation for fesh pince and CZcams’s culture/history has found new depths after watching your video.
Wow, that was amazing! This video actually made me reflect on how YTPs played a role in my life as a creative. I remember the day I actually discovered YTP, I was around 10-11 years old, it was 2007-08 and I was sleeping over at a friend's house. We were watching CZcams and I wanted to find this audio clip I heard my brother watching, where someone was voicing Barney the Dinosaur taking a massive dump. I typed in "Barney Poop" and though we found the clip, we also found a YTP that edited clips of Barney, SpongeBob, and WWE. The video is probably lost to the copyright void now, but back then , we thought them looping SpongeBob saying "It's amazing how-" was the funniest shit ever. Days later, I sought out the video again, then noticed other videos with the YTP title, and soon enough I was quoting remixed CDI and Billy Mays clips all throughout school. I even made a new friend over our shared love of the genre. Fast forward to now, and I've graduated from film school, have a love for weird experimental films, and write horror stories and screenplays that often try to build atmosphere with weird and trippy imagery. Funny what paths life takes you down.
"you eventually watch stuff so much you start to see how it's made, and you wonder, can I change this?" man this line spoke to me, that's EXACTLY the feeling, as someone who dabbles in video game modding and fanfiction. derivative works are rad and i love how many forms they take... so much creative and artistic innovation happening in places nobody outside these niche communities thinks to look
I’m working on a video about the whole “spingebill” subculture surrounding ytp and it’s really awesome seeing people talk about ytp. Krobo’s stuff was legendary
I grew up making YTPs and YTPMVs. Deepercut, Walrusguy, and captpan6 were all creators who really pioneered the field at the time (late 2000s, early 2010s). Insane to think the staying power this genre had. Some of the funniest videos I've ever watched are YTPs.
I’m so happy to see CZcams poops not only still be around but now being analyzed and appreciated so well! My friend from Brazil let me know about part 3 a few days ago and I almost cried of laughter and joy! It’s like seeing an old friend!
Since high school, my friends and I have watched and quoted these videos more times than I could possibly count. It can somehow be so all over the place, but still cohesive enough for us to quote almost beginning to end. The videos have such a special place in my heart because of how I've bonded with people because of them. My reaction to Fesh Pince 3 being uploaded was bigger than any movie announcement in my life. Reading the comments made it even better because it told me that my experience was actually much more common than I would have thought. I just want to say thank you for making this video. It really warms my heart to see other people out there that care about it as much as I do
The combination of good free editing software and filesharing philosophy has made the internet as a whole a hotbed for sample art. Part of why mashups and YTP go hand in hand is because they fundamentally operate on the same ethos. It's beautiful how this has allowed people to experiment and express themselves, even if it's making TV characters say curse words.
"I used to think CZcams Poops were stupid; just unintelligible garbage flashbanging your senses in order to get a cheap laugh from the dumb. It took me while to realize that they were taking a scene and straining it- removing all the dialogue, all the acting, all the narrative, leaving you with nothing but the distilled emotion of the scene. This is why so many YTPs are made from sitcoms and children's cartoons- the only thing left is the raw comedy." -Me, circa 2016, while absolutely out of my mind on LSD.
fucking phenomenal video, it's really nice to see the people who watched all these older youtube videos reflect back on them and realize that they hold a lot more meaning than we realize
This is amazing. Please do a video on Durhamrockerz, or the Akira Kurosawa of YTP’s. Their King of the Hill videos are the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
And in the world of ytp's, let's not forget the colossal subgenre that is YTPMV where, instead of writing new stories with those clips, they write literal music. Some ytpmv's are genuinely fantastic, and creators like iteachvader even go so far as to make completely original tracks
You know its really cool to see someone take the time to talk about CZcams poops. Its seen as childish and real "bottom of the barrel" humor at times but it really does bring entertainment at the simplest level that a lot of people can enjoy and we have since the early days of Zelda-CDI. I never see people talk about this but it gets referenced from time to time in other youtube poops and its amazing to see. People referencing the frozen cave man from the misadventures of skooks. For whatever reason it just appears from time to time and I would love to see people remember this and enjoy seeing it as much as I do.
This was a really wonderful video! Thank you for making it, I really appreciate hearing your thoughts and observations about an art medium I've enjoyed since I was 13 years old in 2008, haha.
Oh my god! That OrpheusFTW video. Yes! Thank you for contextualizing that! I've been a fan of YTP since before 2010 and I have seen it evolve in so many ways over the years. Thank you for this video, I was literally thinking someone should do something like this 🙌
this is an amazing video!! really opened my eyes. I also wanna mention Chief Keef as a teenager who influenced wider culture, as he basically changed the face of rap (and popular music by extension) in the early-mid 2010s
I havent read the Screen Rant article but i know It is not true there was only one shot of Jazz being trown out of the house, as far as I recall there is a shot for every entrance of the house, early in the show he was expelled through the main door, when Aunt Vivian changed then it was through the kitchen door but there are at least 2 other shots that are different one of them being the guest house. So your point still stands but i just wanted to comment that. Subscribed, i really like your Passage à l'acte reference is it shows this was researched beyond internet itself (at least i could belive that was the case). YTP are definitely Dada and there is huge conversation around it in which Passage à l'acte is definitely an important argument.
I was expecting this video to be padded out to be as long as it is and kind of a joke but you honestly came up with some genuinely interesting commentary on this stuff. I’m very impressed!
Absolute banger video. I never thought fesh pince of all things would get the video essay treatment like this, but I’m super glad it did. It’s probably my overall favorite CZcams video of all time, and I’m hype to see somebody dive so deep in on it. Shoutout ✊
No way, you've actually done it. You've done the research to explain something about YTPs I've never been able to say. Thanks, you goddamn genius. I really respect the absolute homework about film and editing you've done to make it, I really relate to this.
got this recomended on Twitter of all places haha, and not recommended by a bot, but recomended by a stranger quoting your tweet that got rt'd by an art-talking account I really like and trust, so really it's the human interactions and desire for interesting art that brought me here. And I'm really happy I decided to try this vid out ! Very good watch, thank you for explaining something I was unaware of, in a manner that made it deeply important to me now !
I've always maintained that YTP's are an artform because the people that make them are hands down some of the best editors on the planet. Communicating a gag, the timing and pacing and such, solely through editing is incredibly difficult.
As much analysis as you've put into it, as much as the human brain is a fantastic thing, and as much as I'd love to see future stuff from you (maybe seeing if absurdism is necessary for Poops to function, or if YTP qualifies as "punk" if it can surpass its source material in terms of view counts/popularity), I still don't think there is a way to truly explain the segue in Fesh Pince 2 from Will being killed to a sudden burst of Popeye the Sailor.
Another fun fact about the Kuleshov effect! the human brain making sense of seemingly unrelated scenes/topics/images placed next to each other and contextualizing them automatically is EXACTLY why propaganda is so powerfully effective. You put it very well by saying you might not consciously connect it, or notice it making sense, but your brain makes those associations. Example “look how bad X problem is in this country! Now I’m gonna abruptly talk about Y group of people for no reason in particular” The wild thing is, it doesn’t even have to make sense or hold up to any real scrutiny in order to work, because it’s not absorbed through the part of your brain that processes information logically. Not to be a downer or anything, as you say it’s also responsible for the way art, film and YTP’s are so delightful! “hah, hah” -will smith
This video genuinely took me by surprise. What a delight. Also wonderful to see a Nirvanna the Band the Show reference out in the wild. Keep up the good work ❤
To me, Skooks and Fesh Pince are more or less the tops of two different styles. Even though they came out in the same era, Fesh Pince is more in the classic YTP style (the repeats, the *relative* simplicity of the edits) while Skooks is a more modern, maximalist style with crazy crap happening every second. I'm not sure if I could pick a favorite between the two, but I like them both for different reasons.
@@Pimploaf_YTPPerfect way of putting it. Fesh Prince remixes the original into its own creation, while Skooks uses the original as a material to sculpt with. Both are valid and should be considered art
@Sykroid As a personal aside, I wish I could make something as madcap packed as Orpheusftw or Awful Fawful's style, but I just don't have the mind/skill for it. I try to make stuff in my own style that's usually deliberate and character-driven (not to be confused with always having a plot/story, more just that I love stuff like Skooks where there's tons of characterization rather than pure gags)
fesh pince 2 has been for a long time my favorite youtube video. i think ive watched it upwards of 30 times. its my go to vid for whenever i get high and i quote it all the time, i originally wanted to make a video essay on ytp too but somethings came in the way, but this genuinely puts my idea to shame! amazing video and i really see u going far
I hadn't watched any of the vids before, so I did the appropriate thing and went and watched all of them. Thank you for the recommendation. What a happy accident that I stumbled upon. Now I have over a decade of memes to look over.
This video was really incredible man, the point about it being the widest spread form of experimental film was something internet ive wanted to hear for a time. Big ups man, hoping nothinf but success for your channel🙏🏾
I clicked on this video expecting a shatpost of some kind, but wow, I am genuinely impressed with the thoughtfulness and academic rigour with which you treated YTPs. I've always found the silliness, experimentation and irreverence of YTPs captivating and this essay gives that captivation weight and voice. Fantastic work!
really awesome video. incredibly happy to have found your channel. ytp's being analysed as actual art is so gratifying, ive always really appreciated the work it takes to make one, and for it to actualy work too. i hope in the next couple of years ytpmv's get the same treatment.. i feel like its still insanely undervalued by most people even tho a channel like SiIvaGunner is pretty much a cornerstones of independant unrestricted music creation on youtube.
YTPMV definitely deserves a critical reappraisal for sure. there’s so much to be said about that culture and its cross over with Japanese MAD videos as well as its influence on most video editors on the internet (not just music ones)!
Funny how something so silly and carefree can have such a deep impact. Someday in the future, I'll show my children fesh pince. And beyond that, my grandchildren are gonna know about fesh pince. and they're gonna need grandchildren lawyers.
An interesting proto YTP worth looking at is "Hoch Der Lambeth Walk" from 1942. The film uses footage from "Triumph of The Will" and clever editing techniques to make it appear that German soldiers are dancing to a popular tune of the 1940s.
I just watched this and your video on Two and a Half Men back to back. It's been a second since I've found a creator who makes shit I have no interest in exploring genuinely fascinating, not to mention the thought-provoking commentary that it comes packaged with. Subscribed and I'll be recommending you to my friends who enjoy similar content. Keep it up dude, I forsee you becoming the next Jacob Geller or HBomberguy.
At 19:12 you ask whether any teenager in the past 20 years has had as much influence on wider culture as Krobo... I'm trying to figure out whether or not Neil Cicierega (aka Trapezoid, Lemon Demon) qualifies. Cause yeah, birthing the genre of animutation at 14 in 2001 is a tad outside that margin, but he was still under 20 when he released "Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny" in 2005.
Absolutely loved this. I can see your channel growing significantly if you keep this sort of content coming. The production quality was great, and I felt you had some intriguing commentary about the nature and impact of Fesh Pince and YTP as a whole - especially when it came to the graffiti comparisons.
However, my biggest takeaway from the video was that I was once the #1 teenager of all time, putting all other teenagers to shame. The undisputed champion of former teenagers, if you will. I'll wear that title with pride.
this video has officially achieved its goal. thank you sweetheart!
we love you dad

Back when PBS Idea Channel was a thing, they made this playlist which was the only thing I'd previously found doing this sort of analysis of YTPs
are there subgenres? I think there's a random-coherent axis - Fesh Pince leaning random, DaThings' videos leaning to coherent

I gotta know…which volume?
I think the hardest thing about liking YTP is having to explain why you like them. Unlike any other thing I like, I find it impossible to explain YTP. Even if I say that it’s cuz it’s utterly abstract and incomprehensible, it doesn’t explain why some YTP are good and others suck
@@ma.2089 I honestly don't remember, if I had to guess it was probably volume 2?

I actually did that between sets of Garfield and Friends episodes with "Robotnik Captures Smiling Friends" and it was one of the funniest Adventures of Sonic YTPs I've _ever_ seen.
@@ma.2089 I think I'm able to articulate why, especially after seeing this video: it's stupid. It's the kind of stupid that hits you in the gut when you're off guard, and that's what's funny about it. It doesn't have a rhyme or reason or a particular setup, if you go with the flow you'll probably get hit with a chuckle out of nowhere at the very least. Even in the video essay he interrupts himself when he gets to fanfiction and that took a bit of wind out of me because I wasn't expecting it. Stuff is just funnier to me with less setup.
this starts incredibly strong and i think you really elevate it as the vid progresses. i actually thought "it's like grafitti" halfway through so when you got there i went "OH" out loud
The “Jazzy NYC” needle drop to introduce the section on graffiti blew me away what a perfect track choice
YEAH, THAT MAKES SENSE
Alright, that’s cool
Comparing YTPs to experimental film was mind-blowing. I've heard it be called digital graffiti before, but comparing it to Passage à l'acte really threw me for a loop. Hearing how young Krobo was is incredibly inspiring too, as a young adult trying to break through the mold. I've always been fascinated by how CZcams Poop is so underground and yet so popular, it feels like everyone in the know of the internet enjoys YTP, but everyone outside of that shell has no idea what you're talking about. To use the iceberg metaphor, it's at the very thin line between the surface and under the water. I'm so glad it persists to this day.
Happy to say i was in the room for the fesh pince ytp panel
It always makes me smile a little to see you in random places.
This was awesome! Thanks for the shoutout!
Real recognize real
very happy to hear you liked it!
Michael Rosen has said many times he doesn't mind people chopping his videos up. He's worried who will find them and think it is him doing it.
DaThings mentioned. very good.
cs188 mentioned. *michael rosen face* VERY good...
she’s truly the queen of ytps
I would put Neil Cicierega's name forward as another teenager who was very influential in the early internet.
He still is. His albums are seriously great. If you ever wanted to hear We Will Rock You and the Spongebob Theme mashed together, he's your man!!
Bustin' is great
@@TheFaceSoap it also makes ppl feel good
The day I realized the guy that made Bustin' is also behind the Potter Puppet Pals videos blew my mind.
It really is insane how much of an impact one creator could have back then.
@@JoeChianelli*WHAT?* _HE_ MADE THAT?
I’ve always thought YTP was anti authoritarian, anti logic, anti… anti corporate art
I think vaporwave has a similar ethos behind it
Your point comparing YTP to graffiti was absolutely spot-on, especially relating to the aspects of legality.
Which brings us to milk.
It's legal.
This video was a blast to watch. Two things in particular I liked, even though they're supplementary
1 - The reference to those weird Minecraft/Roblox channels you see in comment sections you've never heard of yet have 20 million subs.
2 - The use of VA11-Hall-A music. Instant dopamine hit when I hear any track off that game's OST.
i also love seeing how former YTPers develop their skills. case in point being EmpLemon, who uploads some of the best video essays out there. great video man!
Dunno why, but Jeffrey's line of "I've been saving that to calm myself lest I get too giddy from rubbing my CoC" had me in stitches the first few times i watched it lol
The comedy of YTP is fascinating. You cannot explain verbally why some parts made you laugh, you just know they did. It's like surrealism.
"Oh my God, he's God"
Hallelujah
"Would you make me a sandwich"
Hi I'm from Brazil, I remember that back in the day YTP's were very popular here, It was one of the first big style of video content that I got into on CZcams, even years later I still find the old videos by people like Mestre3224, Bomberpooper, Tecraudio, RudeboyProductions, and others hilarious as hell, and I'm not the only one. The community here was very active, collaborative supportive and certainly one of the most talented
Unfortunately, YTP's stopped receiving that much attention here around 2017-2019, the reasons vary a lot: These videos take a lot of time and effort and the access for editing programs or computers in general is very low, and since here there is a higher demand for easily accessible content YTP's weren't very viable. Also alternate "meme pages" and reaction channels started stealing videos and profiting out of it, most of the time without giving credits. Both these things alongside a political crisis and the Elsagate controversy culminated in low effort meme videos being uploaded constantly with "YTPBR" slapped in the title, most of it were made with only views and attention in mind by people who felt like the classic Poops with niche based inner jokes and style were "too weird and vulgar for CZcams". This got to a point where to the general public, YTP's were another trendy style of "funny video compilations" that just fade away like any other fad, meanwhile classic YTP creators started quitting or following other paths, some became streamers, musicians, animators, etc.
Some people still make YTP's, with some even trying to archive and document old channels and videos, but mostly these are made with no intention, expectation or target audience behind and thus they don't receive that much attention. Probably it's better like this, I will still check out old dead channels just for the nostalgia and check out whatever some of these people are doing nowdays.
o YTPBR rapidamente se tornou algo sem esforço desde daquela época onde youtubers de react faziam o tente não rir. triste.
acho engraçado que sempre acho um br nesse tipo de video kkkkkkkk.
a cena de youtube poop no brasil era muito boa, hoje em dia se discute muito sobre roubar conteudo da gringa, mas desde dessa epoca a gente fazia, so que de nossa forma. Nos tinhamos nossos proprios memes, sources e tudo mais, o que faz nos diferenciamos deles, isso faz pensar como as diferenças culturais que existem na vida real se traduziram na internet, com cada pais ou povo tendo seus aspectos unicos
@@anjinh0087 jooj
YTPs got me into dadaism and I think that's all you need for proof that they count as art
This is a fantastic video, thanks for making it! A while back I came across an audio post of just the 'Uncle Phil you've got to kick that man's BUTT' clip and it sent me into an absolute fit, I've gone back to listen to it multiple times whenever I needed a pick me up, but I'd never even heard of Fesh Pince, much less knew that's where it came from. Wild that a piece of art can evolve and transform and spread in ways that the artist never intended and make people feel so strongly even when it's so disconnected from its original context.
Ytp artists are a different level of comedian. Shoutout to Krobo and all the real OG's. Stand up comedians are just public speakers. You guys are the true heroes behind the curtain, I mean I grew up idolizing guys like Seth MacFarlane. But to be real it was the people making youtube poops that always made me laugh harder than any media that exists in the world. "Can we just take a minute to appreciate" doesn't do it justice. Kroboproductions, Deepercutt, Walrusguy, DurhamrockerZ, Cs188, those are names that will go down in history. Laughter is the best medicine. Thank you for your service.
i sent fesh pince to my film teacher as an example of an experimental stock footage film
Whoa, you kind of just changed my whole pov on the medium
Really kind of amazing the way the people who were invested in the YTP community are /still/ invested. To this day I can still rattle off the entire intro cut scene from Hotel Mario, the Faces of Evil intro, and that anti smoking Sonic Sez. Such an incredible time to be on the platform
I can’t express enough how awesome this video is. It justifies CZcams Poop’s existence so well and even elevates it into a rogue art form. I’ve been watching YTPs since I was in high school and I’m 30 now. I have a juvenile sense of humor, so these have always been funny to me. But now I can appreciate them on a much deeper level, which is something I didn’t even know I needed. 😂 thank you! Fantastic work!
Thanks! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it
Thank you for censoring Po*p, I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't
CZcams P**P = CZcams PP, hehe
we don't wanna encourage defecation, after all. a real upstanding citizen will NOT p**p
I loved your point about teenage art of expression and graffiti. CZcams was a much different place in 2009, for better or worse. Everyone was trying to carve out their own little corner, trying to figure out who we were. I was a stupid 15 year old who barely understood the world around him when I first discovered YTP through smash bros content. It massively shaped my identity in the years to come.
Tangibly related, I massively fucked up by parasitically claiming an audience I did not deserve. I ran the first memorial channel, and turned it into a me show. The things I liked I featured on the channel to claim my corner of the world - instead of just reuploading the videos. I still cringe about it and wish I still had the password so I could fix my mistakes, but you live and learn. All part of youth's mistakes. (Especially seeing it kind of referenced in the later half of this video brings back the shame years later.)
As for a final point, the graffiti example reminds me of a man I think was called David Bradley Bailey, a researcher from somewhere in the southern US who rose to prominence around 2011 in the community. His main point as a scholarly outsider was that YTP was a reclamation of commercialized culture, by those outside of the cultural mainstream. (As predicted in which I remember to be Remix: reading & composing culture by Catherine G. Latterell.) Just for a second, I did not feel like an outsider everywhere, but a part of an avantgarde artist collective ready to take on the world. An online Basquiat if you will. We were going to burst into the mainstream, something was brewing.
But as always, the man won. Maybe it did go mainstream after all in the form of modern day meme culture, just with 10 years internet hyper evolution tackled on top of it.
Apologies for all the disjointed thoughts, this was a great video and I can't wait for the next one.
Hearing you breakdown what makes a YTP work reminds me of my own realization I came to about them years ago.
That being. If a film is like a novel. Then a YTP is like poetry.
Man King of the Hill YTP is a big reason why I love King of the Hill and even why my pfp is a small edit of Hank with the Saiyan scouter. Those early day of YTP were peak youtube.
Incredible retrospective. I've been a YTP fan more or less since it started getting popular, sometime between very late 2006 and the spring of 2007. And holy crap, I completely forgot about Waldfield, I'm definitely going to check out that book.
algo recommended me this one and i'm so glad i took a chance on it - i'm going through your whole backlog now. the quality, depth, and originality of your videos are really refreshing. i hope this one blows up and i hope people check out your non-shitpost analysis as well!
this is incredibly kind of you to say!! i'm glad you enjoyed them!
I'm glad there are people who really appreciate YTPs. Not just watch them, of course there is an audience for YTP, but people who understand them. Great video
My favorite YTP of all time is the frying Nemo saga. Funny as hell to me
How interesting this video came very close to one Tumblr text post that got very popular talking about how ytp's should be valued as art. Is it just me or there has been an explosion of appreciation of art these last couple of years? I've seen more and more people classify more stuff as art, and honestly? I couldn't be more happy
do you have a link to that article?? that sounds fascinating and i've never read it!
Maybe thats because Only now the internet and the new things It has created have been a thing for enough time for people to actually start to look at them more critically and see them as art
I cannot describe to you the moment at which this video has come into my life. Weeks of trying to figure out how to make fesh pince palatable to my friends and family. “There has to be a way to get them to see the genius in this, there’s something so uniquely compelling here.” Thank you for your excellent work, I’ve found that even my own appreciation for fesh pince and CZcams’s culture/history has found new depths after watching your video.
as someone who's watched ytps since they came out and continues to go back and watch my faves, i love this. they really do stick with you
0:34 the part right after this when carlton comes in and is like✋😬🤚was probably the hardest I've ever laughed at a YTP.
"RRREEEERRRRR-AAAAAAAAAÆÆÆÆÆÆEEEEEEEE"
Wow, that was amazing! This video actually made me reflect on how YTPs played a role in my life as a creative.
I remember the day I actually discovered YTP, I was around 10-11 years old, it was 2007-08 and I was sleeping over at a friend's house. We were watching CZcams and I wanted to find this audio clip I heard my brother watching, where someone was voicing Barney the Dinosaur taking a massive dump. I typed in "Barney Poop" and though we found the clip, we also found a YTP that edited clips of Barney, SpongeBob, and WWE. The video is probably lost to the copyright void now, but back then , we thought them looping SpongeBob saying "It's amazing how-" was the funniest shit ever. Days later, I sought out the video again, then noticed other videos with the YTP title, and soon enough I was quoting remixed CDI and Billy Mays clips all throughout school. I even made a new friend over our shared love of the genre.
Fast forward to now, and I've graduated from film school, have a love for weird experimental films, and write horror stories and screenplays that often try to build atmosphere with weird and trippy imagery.
Funny what paths life takes you down.
"you eventually watch stuff so much you start to see how it's made, and you wonder, can I change this?" man this line spoke to me, that's EXACTLY the feeling, as someone who dabbles in video game modding and fanfiction. derivative works are rad and i love how many forms they take... so much creative and artistic innovation happening in places nobody outside these niche communities thinks to look
I’m working on a video about the whole “spingebill” subculture surrounding ytp and it’s really awesome seeing people talk about ytp. Krobo’s stuff was legendary
i’m so brainbroken by YTPs that i involuntarily yelp “SoS!” whenever i hear it
I grew up making YTPs and YTPMVs. Deepercut, Walrusguy, and captpan6 were all creators who really pioneered the field at the time (late 2000s, early 2010s). Insane to think the staying power this genre had. Some of the funniest videos I've ever watched are YTPs.
Glad to see WalrusGuy and Deepercut mentioned. There have been so many great YTPers out there and so so so many bad ones
I'm particularly fond of King of the Hill YTPs. The best ones, in my opinion, still have some semblance of a plot to follow.
Durhamrockerz being the King of said Hill.
@@KalvinStrange Undoubtedly.
BOGGLE!?
@@EhFrank F*** you, grandma!
*punches cereal box*
I’m so happy to see CZcams poops not only still be around but now being analyzed and appreciated so well! My friend from Brazil let me know about part 3 a few days ago and I almost cried of laughter and joy! It’s like seeing an old friend!
I didn't even realise how small of a channel this was until i finished the video, this is insane quality. keep it up :))
Since high school, my friends and I have watched and quoted these videos more times than I could possibly count. It can somehow be so all over the place, but still cohesive enough for us to quote almost beginning to end.
The videos have such a special place in my heart because of how I've bonded with people because of them. My reaction to Fesh Pince 3 being uploaded was bigger than any movie announcement in my life. Reading the comments made it even better because it told me that my experience was actually much more common than I would have thought.
I just want to say thank you for making this video. It really warms my heart to see other people out there that care about it as much as I do
9:06 I wonder if OrpheusFTW will do some high art today.
I'm so glad he got a mention.
I can easily say, that one YTP changed my friends group humour forever. After over a decade we still reference bits of it randomly
Krobo is an absolute legend. Not only for the Fesh Pince videos but his MLP ytps are the best out there too
The combination of good free editing software and filesharing philosophy has made the internet as a whole a hotbed for sample art. Part of why mashups and YTP go hand in hand is because they fundamentally operate on the same ethos. It's beautiful how this has allowed people to experiment and express themselves, even if it's making TV characters say curse words.
Thank you Tim Rogers for sending me here.
not only the best video essay ever made on YTP, but one of the overall best video essays i've seen in a long time. thank you for making this
thank YOU for watching it!!
"I used to think CZcams Poops were stupid; just unintelligible garbage flashbanging your senses in order to get a cheap laugh from the dumb. It took me while to realize that they were taking a scene and straining it- removing all the dialogue, all the acting, all the narrative, leaving you with nothing but the distilled emotion of the scene. This is why so many YTPs are made from sitcoms and children's cartoons- the only thing left is the raw comedy."
-Me, circa 2016, while absolutely out of my mind on LSD.
fucking phenomenal video, it's really nice to see the people who watched all these older youtube videos reflect back on them and realize that they hold a lot more meaning than we realize
This is amazing. Please do a video on Durhamrockerz, or the Akira Kurosawa of YTP’s. Their King of the Hill videos are the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
Imaperson is another genius YTPer, perhaps the most avant-garde and extreme YTPer of all CZcams history. Love this video btw
youtube.com/@voidbeyond is a currently active avant-garde YTPer. They're more like art films than the traditional YTP that tries to make jokes.
And in the world of ytp's, let's not forget the colossal subgenre that is YTPMV where, instead of writing new stories with those clips, they write literal music. Some ytpmv's are genuinely fantastic, and creators like iteachvader even go so far as to make completely original tracks
You know its really cool to see someone take the time to talk about CZcams poops. Its seen as childish and real "bottom of the barrel" humor at times but it really does bring entertainment at the simplest level that a lot of people can enjoy and we have since the early days of Zelda-CDI. I never see people talk about this but it gets referenced from time to time in other youtube poops and its amazing to see. People referencing the frozen cave man from the misadventures of skooks. For whatever reason it just appears from time to time and I would love to see people remember this and enjoy seeing it as much as I do.
Oh my god i cant beleive ive been put in a youtube video 19:44
Awesome video man, hope this takes you places!
This was a really wonderful video! Thank you for making it, I really appreciate hearing your thoughts and observations about an art medium I've enjoyed since I was 13 years old in 2008, haha.
Thanks for watching it! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Oh my god! That OrpheusFTW video. Yes! Thank you for contextualizing that! I've been a fan of YTP since before 2010 and I have seen it evolve in so many ways over the years. Thank you for this video, I was literally thinking someone should do something like this 🙌
this is an amazing video!! really opened my eyes. I also wanna mention Chief Keef as a teenager who influenced wider culture, as he basically changed the face of rap (and popular music by extension) in the early-mid 2010s
extremely good point!
I havent read the Screen Rant article but i know It is not true there was only one shot of Jazz being trown out of the house, as far as I recall there is a shot for every entrance of the house, early in the show he was expelled through the main door, when Aunt Vivian changed then it was through the kitchen door but there are at least 2 other shots that are different one of them being the guest house. So your point still stands but i just wanted to comment that.
Subscribed, i really like your Passage à l'acte reference is it shows this was researched beyond internet itself (at least i could belive that was the case). YTP are definitely Dada and there is huge conversation around it in which Passage à l'acte is definitely an important argument.
I was expecting this video to be padded out to be as long as it is and kind of a joke but you honestly came up with some genuinely interesting commentary on this stuff. I’m very impressed!
Absolute banger video. I never thought fesh pince of all things would get the video essay treatment like this, but I’m super glad it did. It’s probably my overall favorite CZcams video of all time, and I’m hype to see somebody dive so deep in on it. Shoutout ✊
12:02 did he not feel p-a-a-A-A-I-I-N when he was h-u-u-U-U-R-R-T? Is one of my fave moments
No way, you've actually done it. You've done the research to explain something about YTPs I've never been able to say. Thanks, you goddamn genius.
I really respect the absolute homework about film and editing you've done to make it, I really relate to this.
got this recomended on Twitter of all places haha, and not recommended by a bot, but recomended by a stranger quoting your tweet that got rt'd by an art-talking account I really like and trust, so really it's the human interactions and desire for interesting art that brought me here. And I'm really happy I decided to try this vid out ! Very good watch, thank you for explaining something I was unaware of, in a manner that made it deeply important to me now !
that’s incredible! i’m glad you liked the video too!
awesome video, thank you
I've always maintained that YTP's are an artform because the people that make them are hands down some of the best editors on the planet. Communicating a gag, the timing and pacing and such, solely through editing is incredibly difficult.
a video about YTP... i am so incredibly nostalgic and thrilled. great work as always!!!!!!!
As much analysis as you've put into it, as much as the human brain is a fantastic thing, and as much as I'd love to see future stuff from you (maybe seeing if absurdism is necessary for Poops to function, or if YTP qualifies as "punk" if it can surpass its source material in terms of view counts/popularity), I still don't think there is a way to truly explain the segue in Fesh Pince 2 from Will being killed to a sudden burst of Popeye the Sailor.
Another fun fact about the Kuleshov effect!
the human brain making sense of seemingly unrelated scenes/topics/images placed next to each other and contextualizing them automatically is EXACTLY why propaganda is so powerfully effective.
You put it very well by saying you might not consciously connect it, or notice it making sense, but your brain makes those associations.
Example “look how bad X problem is in this country! Now I’m gonna abruptly talk about Y group of people for no reason in particular”
The wild thing is, it doesn’t even have to make sense or hold up to any real scrutiny in order to work, because it’s not absorbed through the part of your brain that processes information logically.
Not to be a downer or anything, as you say it’s also responsible for the way art, film and YTP’s are so delightful!
“hah, hah” -will smith
oh hey, i never really thought about its political implications! that was really cool, thanks for sharing!
3:02 DaThings spotted???????
Learned about Fesh Pince for the first time thanks to randomly stumbling upon this video, and now I ADORE Fesh Pince and am now subbed to you. Cheers!
This video genuinely took me by surprise. What a delight. Also wonderful to see a Nirvanna the Band the Show reference out in the wild. Keep up the good work ❤
we'll make season 3 happen!
ive literally been wanting an essay video on ytps and the genre for a while, you just made my year oml
It's no Hank of the Hill, or Skooks, but it's pretty good.
To me, Skooks and Fesh Pince are more or less the tops of two different styles. Even though they came out in the same era, Fesh Pince is more in the classic YTP style (the repeats, the *relative* simplicity of the edits) while Skooks is a more modern, maximalist style with crazy crap happening every second. I'm not sure if I could pick a favorite between the two, but I like them both for different reasons.
@@Pimploaf_YTPPerfect way of putting it. Fesh Prince remixes the original into its own creation, while Skooks uses the original as a material to sculpt with. Both are valid and should be considered art
@Sykroid As a personal aside, I wish I could make something as madcap packed as Orpheusftw or Awful Fawful's style, but I just don't have the mind/skill for it. I try to make stuff in my own style that's usually deliberate and character-driven (not to be confused with always having a plot/story, more just that I love stuff like Skooks where there's tons of characterization rather than pure gags)
fesh pince 2 has been for a long time my favorite youtube video. i think ive watched it upwards of 30 times. its my go to vid for whenever i get high and i quote it all the time, i originally wanted to make a video essay on ytp too but somethings came in the way, but this genuinely puts my idea to shame! amazing video and i really see u going far
I hadn't watched any of the vids before, so I did the appropriate thing and went and watched all of them. Thank you for the recommendation. What a happy accident that I stumbled upon. Now I have over a decade of memes to look over.
"Let me tell you something about women: something about women"
We've hit such a bizarre point in time that we are watching/making Video Essays about Fesh Pince
This video was really incredible man, the point about it being the widest spread form of experimental film was something internet ive wanted to hear for a time. Big ups man, hoping nothinf but success for your channel🙏🏾
I clicked on this video expecting a shatpost of some kind, but wow, I am genuinely impressed with the thoughtfulness and academic rigour with which you treated YTPs. I've always found the silliness, experimentation and irreverence of YTPs captivating and this essay gives that captivation weight and voice. Fantastic work!
really awesome video. incredibly happy to have found your channel. ytp's being analysed as actual art is so gratifying, ive always really appreciated the work it takes to make one, and for it to actualy work too.
i hope in the next couple of years ytpmv's get the same treatment.. i feel like its still insanely undervalued by most people even tho a channel like SiIvaGunner is pretty much a cornerstones of independant unrestricted music creation on youtube.
YTPMV definitely deserves a critical reappraisal for sure. there’s so much to be said about that culture and its cross over with Japanese MAD videos as well as its influence on most video editors on the internet (not just music ones)!
Funny how something so silly and carefree can have such a deep impact. Someday in the future, I'll show my children fesh pince. And beyond that, my grandchildren are gonna know about fesh pince. and they're gonna need grandchildren lawyers.
An interesting proto YTP worth looking at is "Hoch Der Lambeth Walk" from 1942. The film uses footage from "Triumph of The Will" and clever editing techniques to make it appear that German soldiers are dancing to a popular tune of the 1940s.
I just watched this and your video on Two and a Half Men back to back. It's been a second since I've found a creator who makes shit I have no interest in exploring genuinely fascinating, not to mention the thought-provoking commentary that it comes packaged with.
Subscribed and I'll be recommending you to my friends who enjoy similar content. Keep it up dude, I forsee you becoming the next Jacob Geller or HBomberguy.
Awesome analysis, it's nice to hear video essay type stuff on things people actually like. Also I'd never heard of Bel Air until now.
At 19:12 you ask whether any teenager in the past 20 years has had as much influence on wider culture as Krobo...
I'm trying to figure out whether or not Neil Cicierega (aka Trapezoid, Lemon Demon) qualifies. Cause yeah, birthing the genre of animutation at 14 in 2001 is a tad outside that margin, but he was still under 20 when he released "Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny" in 2005.
