"BROKEN" Better smashed than possessed! Animated Short by Patrick Smith.

- A dark spirit discovers a method of becoming intact, and part of a possessed, twisted, robotic tribe.
In this animated short film, Brittle glass characters are divided into two sides: the broken and the intact. The spirits that dwell within are either pure or rotten. The broken remain on their side, to waste away into shattered bits. But the shards have a healing property, a process exploited by an ambitious dark soul who desires to be whole. But it is better to be broken and pure, than be intact and possessed. Once deprived of his glass body, the dark soul timidly rises, twisting upward, but is soon ripped down violently, and consumed mercilessly by the unbroken.
Shortened:
The broken will slowly decay, wasting away into shattered bits. But the shards have a healing property, a process exploited by an ambitious dark soul who desires to be whole.
Directors note:
For some reason this film evolved the way it did.. a bit creepy and twisted, but meaningful nonetheless. In many ways this animation reflects my belief that evil is often found in what we perceive as beauty or perfection, and conversely, goodness is found in what we dismiss as "broken" or unworthy. It's interesting to note that many Catholic Saints were broken or misled prior to conversion. Regardless of the meaning that viewers glean from this animation, I truly hope you enjoy it, and please share as much as possible. Huge thanks to my supporters both on Patreon and the members on CZcams.

My interpretation of this video would be about the different social status in the world;
The brokens live in suffering due to their kindness, because the "smiley"s are taking advantage of it in order to reach this state bliss they seem to be in.
However, since selfishness is what brought them to this point, the smileys aren't hesitant in bringing down those weaker than them, even those of their own.
As they say: "The bigger they are, the harder they fall"
The other way I'd interpret the ending is it's showing how the rich and selfish will never be remembered in a good light. In any case, this is some very good wordless writing.
It reminds me of the dilemma where you choose to either live in an immortal world of constant agony where every day, one random person gets to forever leave for a world of bliss, or live in an immortal world of constant bliss where every day, one person is sent into eternal suffering.
this is pretty good. my own intentions are in the description if you are interested.
I thing he are just hungry

Love how the rude glass guys soil didn't escape when being devoured
Despite the fact that earlier the bird that got devoured managed to escape
Pretty sure the soul of the dude that first died was like:
"Now we're even"
ha totally!

Indeed
It's better to be unhappy but sane than to be happy but crazy
🎯
"No good deed goes unpunished." Is how it feels at times. Some people give and help out of the goodness of their hearts, but they must be wary of those who take advantage of their kindness.
The state of their souls also are symbolic: The one that died broken and miserable, but was kind, had a clean, unbroken looking spirit, but the selfish one that was whole again, had a dirty, patchwork looking spirit that was then devoured by the other "happy" looking ones. There is no escape when you cross "the line" to be happy by betraying others.
this. thx for the thoughtful comment.
Man, the only thing I got from this is that one kind of person that's as low and as broken as you are and when you take the chance in helping them, they take advantage of it and hurt you in process, not caring that you helped them.
Everything about this was so well done for the smiling glasses. The clicking and robotic movements, the lifelessness, the abnormal smiles, 10/10 worth the wait and was super well done. Beyond excellent job.
thx for the thoughtful comment!
I was thinking this too
Intinya dia berubah 😱😱🎃🎃🧟
A strange detail is how the corrupted feel… robotic. From the lifeless grins, to the mechanical ticking when said grins contort, it just makes the unbroken seem soulless.
Also, I noticed that one unbroken being held together by tape, presumably avoiding the gluttony of their peers.
good observation about the tape! i didn't think anyone would notice that detail.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation I noticed it.
I thought it meant that unbroken had been broken before. but it also makes since that they are simply trying to not break. So what do they need to eat to stay unbroken? or perhaps them needing to eat is like a metaphor for them trying to stay full? like even though they are unbroken they are actualy hollow in their hearts? iN SOMEWAYS YOU COULD ARGUE they actualy are Broken because they behave broken while the others merely look broken. In truth maye they are just a differant kind of broken. Because they look insane, they look more like they could go crazy and break at any moment. No one with such deluted smiles could ever truely not be broken somewhere. But being corrupt, isn't that a form of broken in it's own right?
Love the colors and animation
0:17 Creepy...
0:47 Not creepy.
1:22 Breaks his chest
1:39 Becomes like the other smiling glasses
1:52 White Soul leaves the body
1:58 Breaks in pieces
2:21 Thumbs up!
2:52 Soul ties his legs together
2:53 Cassualy Falls and breaks
2:58 Teeth and the bloody wine

3:29 No...
3:35 Eats the dark soul
3:58 Birdie.
4:01 The Soul Flies Away Forever
yep.
I seriously used to believe the white bird is the protagonist of the show. I even cried out so hard when it almost got killed. But the best thing is the bird is actually the best side by presenting the true reason of being “alive”.
🎯
The bird reminded me of saint spirit in Christianity when it led good guy's soul somewhere
@@generalwwii2215 ah yes, saints are good at that.
Love this little world you've built over the years
Always appreciate not only the animation but the great sound design! Fantastic work as usual
i was fortunate enough to have Leon Riskin do the music again.. he did POUR 585.
the moment we have been waiting for.
Another banger from Patrick!
thx
love these short films but they are also quite creepy
this one is VERY creepy.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation indeed
I dont even know what creeped me the most, the faces, or the fact that they ate a soul
Also, the animation it's still cool, I see now why these animations take so long!
As good as always. Loved the balance between horror and suspense, definitely worthy for the glass vessels universe. I also love the bird, such a simple character yet it speaks volumes for the story. Keep up the wonderful work Patrick!
I’d like to do more with the bird!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Oh? I can't wait to see what you got planned :3
you know I'm suprised the Bird didn't break anyone. Are they just not the breaking type or what?
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Please do. It's adorable.
THE CHEF HAS COOKED ANOTHER ONEEE 🗣️🗣️🔥🗣️🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️
Good to see you back. Cool animation
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY FINALLY POST!!! I been thinking of making more ocs that looks like this but I'mma go think for a moment :) I really enjoy your videos and everytime I cry, I always came to watch some of your videos and then I stopped cry, you're the only one who brings me happiness! Also have a greatest great great day!!! 💓:3
such an awesome comment. i live for comments like this.. keeps me going.
That's why being a murderer never pays.
yep.
Iconic smile 0:17
Beautiful work as always!
This has got to be your best animation Patrick Smith. From the incredible animations to the robotic sound effects. I also like how to represent the superiority complex and in a way karmas for what the glass got for taking advantage of the one who helped him. Love your work 🤩
Thank you so much! i def worked the hardest on this one.. actually it took too long! next film i'm going to be a bit more quick about it, as I attempt to make a film once every month. thx again for the great comment, please share:)
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Take time if you want, your work is always worth the wait 😊
What a fantastic animation you made, really good effort including the eye pupils 👍
thanks for noticing the eyes! had to allow the concept to evolve!
THE LEGAND HAS RETURNED!!!
MY DUDE WELCOME BACK! YOYR CHANNEL IS THE BEST!!❤
HOORAY FOR THE NEW SERIES!! ❤❤❤
Thanks for the masterpiece
That was wild; kinda brutal, too. The animation style lends a great deal to the story.
This was beautiful it makes no sense but in the best amazing entertainment of a way and the smiles the clicks and sounds perfect
I love your animations! I've been waiting for an upload from you
thx for waiting.. hope you dig. lmk what you think
i love this i think this is my favorite animation you have done it feels so relaxing to watch this thank you so much for making this you did a good job and i hope we see more of the glass men soon
Inspiring as always! Thanx for making this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
It has been a long time that I’ve seen an animation coming from you, this one is pretty interesting, the glass people, it’s interesting how it works here, the wolf in sheep skin basically, what seems full and good can hide the rotten and broken.
thx for the comment! glad you took the time to watch
You don't dissapoint, keep it this amazing work up!
will do.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING I’ve been following you since pour series and Pittari short film I love all of them
i really appreciate this. ur the best.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Hoping to become an indie animator just like you. been following you ever since I was 16 haha
Yaaay I've been waiting for this, your animations are still amazing as always 😊👍
Thank you! 😄
another amazing short! great work Patrick!
Thanks a lot!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation no problem!
Got here as fast as possible. The animation of their crazy and broken expressions tells it all. This is amazing.
i appreciate that.. i was worried it was too creepy for my subs
Beautiful work as always ❤
Thank you! 😊
Great work once again! ❤
Thank you so much 😃
I miss these types of videos. Welcome back :)
More to come!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Glad to hear this :)
You know its a good day when Patrick smith uploads, great video as always!
You're the best!
Crazy how he just made animation about cup or people that made out of glass yet is has so much meaning in them like this message is "never hurt someone for your own good because karma will come soon"
This one is my favorite by far. What a message!!! ❤❤❤
awesome to hear this.
Smooth and amazing animation
You are my inspiration❤i love your videos 🎉If you had an animation course I would definitely sign up
Wow, thank you!
t- the.. ANIMATION...its AMAZING !! :D
I absolutely love your animations! Your talent is on par with the team at Glitch Productions!
I might be late but I have been waiting for this for a while and this animation was worth it
I love that little bird, he's quite adorable. Anyways, another awesome short featuring our favourite wine glass boys!
thx! they've kind of morphed from wine glasses into wine people.. i just went with it.
I love your animations 😄😄
This is great! I love how we get to see how the concept of Pour evolved into this series (Edit..maybe even before Pour) Its like watching your kid grow up. Btw, your sound design and music is great too. You keep everything just simple enough, in all aspects, to tell your story but enough for it to be very effective (though I know you put a lot of work into this) Tip of the cap to everyone!
this is true.. to me the world is evolving, and i gotta keep up. i'd like to completely get away from the entire drinking glass and pour thing.. going toward a more "fragile" creature filled with blood thing. wow.. that sounded dark when i typed it.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation You know what they say... there is no light, if there is no darkness. *cue woo woo music
Your messages are loud and clear though not too on the nose on your work. I feel like many of these could eventually be put together as a full story... like a History of the World (Mel Brooks) type compilation of vignettes and still all connect yet be their own stories. Anywho.... big fan of your work. Glad youre growing your audience. You deserve it. Cant wait to see whats next.
YOOO, our big brother again pleases us with his masterpiece art and animation, I finally waited for my bro's new upload
I wanted to ask, how are u man? It takes long to at first and draw scenes and then animate it, does it takes a lot of you’r energy to create perfect masterpiece like this?
You’re the only youtuber that making animations like they’re from 2016
Been waitin for this :)
hope it does it for you!
This one has a vision 🤩🤩🤩💕💕💕
Ngl every animation that I watched of yours so far is awesome also I'm assuming it takes a long time to make those animations
def takes a long time.. this particular one took the longest. i'm going to try to make a film every month.. so see you aug 1!
The legend himself uploaded YESSS
That was interesting! The smileys were as creepy as [unmatched]!
I love this channel 👑❤️
help me out by sharing the videos you like. sharing is everything to creators like me.. it's what makes the channel work. you rock.
This is great!
thx!
you really nailed the creepy aspect by having the glasses stare at me as if they know my presence lol
haha good to hear! hope i didn't go too far with the creepy factor.
BEST VIDEO EVER.
HES BACK! YAY!! ❤
Espere mucho por esta animación y me terminó gustando, creo que le puedes sacar un montón de mensajes pero esto fue lo que yo entendí: muchas personas hacen lo que sea incluso dañar a los demás solo para encajar a una sociedad mejor, pero al hacerlo no piensan en las consecuencias que puede traer esta nueva vida, incluso te pueden llegar a traicionar o hacerte algo incluso peor.
OMG!!! IT'S YOU!!! REMEMBER YOU FOREVER!!! AWESOME ANIMATION!!!! :DD✨✨✨
1:11
When I think about it, I’d honestly kill to see these things get into a fist fight
wow, it was really brutal, but the animation is perfect 😊
thx!
I see you changed your profile picture yet again i like it!
Amazing!
thanks my friend. see you on x!
Welcome! See you too!
This video almost gave ma a anxiety attack. THEY HAVE EYE COLERS. 10 OF 10 VERY GOOD
After months of waiting… we finally got another awesomepiece from Patrick himself!
did you like it? i was worried it's too weird.
I love this little glass world
The best youtuber ever!
THX!!!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation np
Finally, I've been waiting for this and also is this the first time that there's a word that come out from the character mouth?
There’s a “no” in pour 668 and in pour games.. Also, there’s a “freak” in pour generation.
Wow. Just amazing.
thank you! very happy you took the time to watch.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation no problem. I always look forward to one of your unique styles of animation.
YAY HE FINALLY UPLOADED!!❤

Спасибо за очередной шедевр=]

Another masterpiece
thx!!
3:29 the "no"
Замечательная анимация! ^^
Incredible
Amazing crazy background Music with broken glass series
music by Leon Riskin. he also scored my film Pour 585.
I can't imagine how much work can be put into such a 4-minute animation. 🤯
i spent too much time on this one.. need to find a way to create more frequently. my last film pour 101 was last december! DOH!!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Oh... Okay, I wish you much success so that, you can create more.
damn they even have pupils. it makes it way more enjoyable. gruesome makes it pretty cool
Tu trabajo siempre me impresiona, sigue asi
Bros were so high that they thought a literal spirit was a snack
haha
wow i love this
“bleph! it’s time for school!”
NAH BROKEN JUST RELEASED

Still at these? I've already found one nostalgic video, and now a nostalgic youtuber just uploaded?
incredible and very unique animation, I loved it, I'm Brazilian so sorry if the translation is wrong
Thank you for watching, please share with your great Brazilian friends!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation I'm going to share it, your animation deserves it, I plan to make a comic and I hope one day I can get a quality as good as your animation, you inspire me

Bro actually uploaded!
yeah.. i know right? last upload was last december (pour 101) i'm going to try to do a film a month, my new challenge for myself.
YAY A NEW VIDEO
The definition of nobody survives life and an unbalanced society
some give anything to be prefect even hurting the people who care and love them. thankfulness can turn to greed.
also wineglass teeth
Damn, this is art
well thank you very much. too kind.
Those are some very hard to drink from designs for a cup
ha, they are not cups.. they have evolved.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation I guess becoming undrinkable counts as a survival adaptation for a drink
