I truly love this video and I am using it for a fanvid analysis in my Fandom class. You have truly captured the angst, distress, and misery these women in the show, and potentially in real life, that these women go through. This is something different that when pieced together makes a big statement. Great work!
The best line in this video is the one about personal accountability for one own choices and misdeeds. It's a line all women, no matter who they are, need to hear everyday.
+Alrune La Brune: What about Maddening Rod from Camelorum Adventures? She woke up with no memory, no clue about anything except her own name, all records to identify her having been erased from public record, alone, in the rain, wandered into town, and found her mere presence warped the very fabric of reality around her - with no explanation and almost zero ability for her to control it. The town responded by throwing her into Camelorum "Correctional." No lawyer, no trial, no clear charge. Just bam! She's in there "for being a glitch in the universe." Because the more she stays inside there, for some unknown reason, the less weird stuff happens that can be attributed to her. What's her level of personal accountability? (She turns out to be some failed alien science experiment, on par with Ginormica from Dreamworks' Monsters vs. Aliens.) She's basically an SCP in everything but name.
Dozerfleet Studios No thanks. Stories that thrive on depicting women as the poor defenseless victims of society don't interest me. True emancipation comes from accepting responsibility for oneself in any and all capacity, making things happen instead of having things happen to you and standing up tall against whatever life may throw at you. Not from manipulating others into coddling you like a baby and catering to your feelings.
Alrune La Brune : Carly may have been made poor, though she was hardly defenseless. She didn't want to use her method of defenses, because she had no control at first and didn't want to encourage anyone to see her as a monster. Honesty comes when you know what you can hold yourself accountable for, and when blaming yourself is absurd, and accepting each for what it is. In the same story, Candace "Lemon Witch" Mason realizes she'll never learn her true destiny unless she goes along with being taken. She could argue the mall cop being turned into a lime was Xiboruty's fault and not hers, since she didn't know at the time that the secret to controlling her powers was to wear yellow gloves. (He never told her, because he liked turning his victims into tools of spreading chaos.) Yet, she knows after learning the truth of controlling it that she'll never be able to make the real criminal pay, unless she learns how to fight back competently. Therefore, she accepts her sentence and views Camelorum as a training ground, where she'll learn how to be Lemon Witch properly - and use it to fight back against the evil that created her. An almost literal case of turning lemons into lemonade. She doesn't hold herself responsible for what happened to her, but she does see it as an opportunity. She was metaphorically raped, yet the "rapist" foolishly gave her the tools to exact revenge - and prevent future victims from happening. It takes her no time at all to see herself as having a typical superhero origin story. So she decides to play that angle for all it's worth. Also in that same story, there's Emily. The car crash wasn't her fault. Getting hit in the face with an alien energy beam wasn't her fault. The only thing she did that was her fault, was running away. She fully accepts that. If she didn't run away, there'd be no case against her. She ran, making her a fugitive. So she feels she deserves something for that. Jenny Kay did nothing wrong. She was merely a passenger on that car that hit the fountain. But Jenny Jane got a more direct blast from the knowledge-imbuing Xomian wave. Being sent to Camelorum meant the two of them could learn each other's imbued secrets, and become better-equipped to stop future alien invasions. Jenny Jane admits she deserves the DUI sentence, even if 3 years seems excessive. Jenny Kay merely plays along, because she sees it as an opportunity to learn from a genius. (And because everyone thinks she's crazy anyway.) If anyone was a poor, defenseless victim, it was Barry Navoz. However, he too realizes that the act of God that happened to him that made him look bad was intended to lead him somewhere. If he doesn't play along, he'll never know what that something is that he was meant to find. Fast-forward, and Xiboruty attacks him. He survives, and becomes Ion Boy. Camelorum Adventures is all about finding good opportunities in bad (and stupidly unfair) situations, including seemingly impossible ones. Maybe that's not your genre cup of tea. But there is a place for it.
Is this tv series worth me renting NetFlix again? I been debating it ... seems to be creative and really 'on point'. thanks for letting me know your thoughts on this TV show.
I think it is a great alternative take on the show. Yes it is a comedy, but being in prison is generally not a comedy in real life. This video shows the pain and distress these women are going through that often gets overlooked because of the comedic aspects.
Lori Hackney What?!? House of Cards is an amazing show. It completely blows season one of OITNB out of the water. I'll admit that season 2 of OINTB is better than I expected. I'm glad it isn't focused so much on Chapman this time.
Taylor needs to win that emmy, she's so talented!
shemusthave EVERYONE ahahaha A Poussey também fez um ótimo trabalho. Eu gostei de ver :D
Holy shit, this was a good video. I didn't realize how emotional the scene where the mute woman tears up Red's name card was until this.
That was astonishing. Very good job. The editing was seamless, the music haunting, the pace perfect. Amazing job!
When I started watching this, I was looking forward to a comedy. Now, whatever was left of my heart is nonexistent.

How can anyone NOT fall in love with this show!!!!
Your vid captures it perfectly. Brava!
One of the best fan videos I have ever seen, and I have seen MANY. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Great choice of scenes, voice overs and song.
This Represents All The Sadness In The Show In A Way That Could Not Have Been Done Better
This is really well edited. I couldn't believe how well written this series was when I watched it.
I like the way you put this together, can't wait for Season 3

Can't wait for season 2
OMFG!!! I'M CRYING HERE... HAHAH THIS IS SO AMAAAAZING!! YOU DID A F**KING GREAT JOB MAN! CONGRATULATIONS!! :D :D What the full song name?
Jackson Horbach You probably know by now but just in case Apparat - Goodbye
Michelle Sibanda yep! :D | but just in case, Thanks man!
OMG this is like the best fucking edit video ever.....u did such a good job
This sucked all the comedy out of the show.
Well the show is more of a drama anyway
Sven Winchester Yes but the comedic element is very strong.
Although it is a black comedy/drama, there's nothing funny about being in prison.
I think it is a great alternative take on the show. Yes it is a comedy, but being in prison is generally not a comedy in real life. This video shows the pain and distress these women are going through that often gets overlooked because of the comedic aspects.
Genesis Villarreal definitely. but teh comedic aspect is what keeps me watching personally. life is depressing enough lol
Amazing! Please make more:)
awesome video!
That was powerfull
I love taystee
the one where she accidentally takes the screwdriver... 3rd or 4th maybe?
Amazing
What is the song, throw down your hands? (At two mins in?)
i cried to
Will Tastee ever figure out the depth of Poussey's love for her?
This is a very late reply but she knows and they supposedly discussed it.
well I just cried oops
same.
wow
What song is this?
With Breaking Bad song
What is the song called?
Hannah Easthope it is Goodbye - Apparat
shame on those eight dislikers...
in 1 year its only gained 1 more dislike
Lol the song is from breaking bad
Hey guys! Is this show really worth watching?
It is quite explicit with a lot of sex and swearing (just to warn you). Beyond that it is amazing. Such realistic characters and great storyline!
By far this show is worth watching. It is a good one.
Best Netflix original show. Don't understand how it keeps getting overshadowed by that bore fest House of Cards.
Lori Hackney What?!? House of Cards is an amazing show. It completely blows season one of OITNB out of the water. I'll admit that season 2 of OINTB is better than I expected. I'm glad it isn't focused so much on Chapman this time.
I have to c dis
Makes some of you with no life want to go to prison right?...lol
In a weird way yeah, though I have a life
modeling

I have to c dis
