A lot of people in the comments seeing this as finding beauty in the mundane things in life. For me is more an unsettling portrayal of someone alienated from their labor, but its all they have, so they cling to it. Pretty bleak. Edit: Came back 5 years later to change there to their :p

I strongly feel the character has some mental health issues. She tells her story of how she was so depressed to the point where she didn't want to get out of bed, life was meaningless to her and she was struggling with depression, but making pizza brought back meaning to her life. She goes from being in a depressive state to suddenly finding meaning in something due to a sudden realization. Her reason for why she found contentment in what she did is pretty worrisome to say the least... finding contentment in being detached of any kind of human or emotional connection is slightly alarming. I do not think she lied about feeling content in the way she worked. The way she elaborately explains how she thinks about her job and how in the end she also says 'that's all I have don't take that away from me' it's like she's almost scared of going back to being depressed after finding a cure, she was very anxious of that being taken away from her, that could mean someone must have told her it wasn't healthy for her to continue in this way. I'm assuming the person recording was either her therapist or some friend who wanted to record her condition. Just speculations.. but I just thought it was weird for her to suddenly overcome depression with a dissociative theory about her work.. Maybe she suffers from anxiety of being attached to someone or something. I'm no psychiatrist but this is certainly a mental illness of some sort.

She know's her hard work is meaning but it gaev someone a few moments of joy and that makes her satified. But think about it. Making pizza is that happiest part of her life. That's not exactly healthy or thw happiness thing ever

THIS

i have 2 interpretations about this. 1. this girl clearly enjoys her job, it being "the only thing" she has, and she isn't being sarcastic, despite her monotone voice. 2. this girl despises her job, but speaks good about it due to her manager possibly filming her for an interview about her job. she is supposed to say good things so she doesn't get fired or something, and she obliges because it's all she has.

makes me look back to 3 years ago to when I finally had some experience under my belt at a pizzaria working up from dish to salad and my manager finally started training me on pizza. I had been severally depressed for over a year following a rough relationship and bad break up but once i started doing pizza i thought i was moving up in the world and cried over the fact i was given the chance to improve. now after working there for 4 years im miserable as ever and this video completely sums up how i feel. all i do is work eat and sleep and its all i have to support myself

Pitchfork season when?

I can't tell if this is depressing (She only has making pizza and she can only enjoy that) Or heartwarming (She finds so much joy in mundane tasks) Or creepy (she freakishly admires, almost romanticizes, making pizzas for strangers, and the eerie atmosphere) Or ironic/funny (How commercials will madly exaggerate how great their company/product is by recording an employee/customer saying ridiculously positive things about them) And i think that's genious. Such a simple little short film, nothing super fancy visually or audibly, little to no plot or story or super tragic moments. Usually those would be all negative traits to a short film, but to convey so many potential messages, intentionally or not, through such otherwise basic circumstances is what makes it stand out. Kudos to you Vewn.

To me it feels like a satire of the weird devotion you're expected to perform for even the most menial job. Like certainly do your best at work, but its grotesque the way jobs expect you to act like stocking shelves, making pizzas, etc is your life goal and the company is as important as your family and life (especially during the application/interview process). This video shows what someone with those kind of values would actually look like, and its unsettling.

Жыл бұрын

that was my first thought watching it. it seems like a critique of the soulless labor of service work by showing how ridiculous the idea is that people would be so invested in work that feels so meaningless.

Idk how people view this character as being happy or content with their self or their job because when I worked part time at a pizza place as a teen I felt similar feelings but wasn't happy. Making pizzas was fun when I first started. Aligning toppings to make sure there was some on every slice, so that the person who would eat the pizza would enjoy it, and smiling at customers and telling them to have a nice day all felt fulfilling as labor to the point I even thought I wouldn't mind working at that pizza place for a longtime. Making good pizzas and having customers like it, even though they didn't know I made it joy, pride even. After a few months though, I was faced with the paradoxical feeling of dreading my job outside of work but enjoying it while I was there. It was like some kind of switch, at work I was a happy slave and at home I hated the very thought of stepping into that pizza place and working a shift. The only conclusion I've come up with to MY feelings was that physical labor does make people happy to an extent because it shows results you can see and your body feels worked out. I also didn't have much outside of work other than school, which felt mundane. So the joy that came from working was kind of like a clutch for me. I overlooked the weird behaviors of my manager and low pay because it was one of the few things that did bring satisfaction to my life. Given my personal experience, I really don't think this character has much in their life. The character even admits it by saying "Making pizzas is all I got. You can't take that away from me". Plus, Even though there is a person recording their response, I still believe this character does not have any strong social connections either due to the lack of mention of family and friends. People tend to stray off topic when asked about themselves yet our character never mentioned even a simple sentence about their life outside of their pizza job. anyways watching this made me wanna quit my part-time job lmao TL;DR: As someone who had a pizza job, I am projecting onto the character in my interpretation that they are lost in their sense of purpose outside their job.

According to me, this was a perfect depiction of how exaggerated the advertisements and people nowadays are. The first line she said, "Making Pizza definitely saved my life" is very similar to how most of the ads showcase their products to be nowadays. For example: "This product literally changed my life" "I have been using this for quite a while now and I don't think I can go a single day without it" etc,etc are the current favourite pickup lines for influencers. But we all know the truth, don't we? Yet the way she keeps talking and exaggerating about things, even though we know it's ridiculous we almost believe her. That's exactly what the commercials are doing. They make you see a sob story and you are sold. Another disturbing thing is how 'deep talk' is being depicted here. The way she says "It's like one day something changed inside me. You can look at it as fate or prophecy, either way, it's same" or "Making pizza is all I've got, you can't take that away from me" Tell me you haven't heard the same kind of bullshit ever before? The way she is saying things is very very similar to how people try to show their extreme passion for things that they say they love doing. Also when she said "When you are young it's easy to think that life is meaningless but now my existence is truly fulfilled. After home, I get to go home and look at myself and think today I made 100 pizza for customers that don't even know I exist and made no correlation between the food they are eating and a working human being. In 24 hours the food they eat will be out of their body forever and they nor I will ever think about that pizza again." one might actually believe that this is a great philosophical idea but in reality, she is saying that her life is still as meaningless as it was back when she was young. She makes pizza for people who don't even care about who made it. In the end, after 24 hours that pizza will be out if their systems flushed in some toilet. She was being so sarcastic when she said that making pizza is all she wanted to do in her life. She still has left no mark of her existence. And day by day her life is just being wasted.

The last line: "Making pizza is all I got. You can't take that away from me." This line seems to give me the impression that the context of this video is two employees making a video to a manager to keep her from being fired.

OMG, that’s an amazingly interesting way of viewing this. It could also reflect the expectations that employers place upon their employees by paying them with low-salaries

I honestly think this is a person who has no one left to care for. That is why she finds joy in making pizzas because she feels like she has a “purpose” in the world or can distract herself from the loneliness. This is actually pretty sad since she can’t always stay a pizza worker and she might go back into depression without this “distraction.” She might become lonely again.

"It's recording." "Making pizza definitely saved my life. "I used to be so depressed I couldn't get out of bed, but when I started making pizza everything changed for me. When you're young, it's easy to think that life is completely meaningless, but now my existence is truly fulfilling. After work, I get to go home, look at myself in the mirror, and think 'Today I made hundreds of pizzas for customers that don't know I exist, and made no correlation with the food they're eating and a working human being. In 24 hours, the food I create will be out of their body forever and they nor I will ever think about that pizza again.' Nothing in life satisfies me like making a pizza does. It's like, one day, something changed inside of me. You can look at it as fate or a prophecy, but either way it's the same. When I close my eyes at night, I dream, and in my dreams I make pizza. And then when I wake up in the morning, I think 'Today I get to do it all over again.' Making pizza is all I got. "You can't take that away from me."

I think, notwithstanding the plethora of comments of shedding this in a positive light, that it is actually depressing, as it relates the modern human being tied only to the labor they perform--that most of us spend our lives working, and the only true attachment we have with this life we live is the mundane work we do. I mean just listen to what she says, it's absurd!--"When you're young, it's easy to think that life is completely meaningless, but now my existence is truly fulfilling.

the gray background of the pizza making scenes add so much to the scene. even though it appears to be just a thick marker drawn everywhere, it’s the way that the white suggests there are spaces out and falsely leads your eyes to believe that it’s not just a wall of gray and despair

When your mundane job is the only thing you have to build a routine around and give your life a semblance of meaning, but it's also mind-numbing and depressing.

Two words: Watch History

This. I relate to this so hard. I am a pizza fanatic. I worked in pizza for 6-7 years. After some time I even became a store manager. It was my life, my store was my sanctuary, my crew were my flock and family. It defined me, I was the pizza girl. Pizza helped me work through most of my neuroses like agoraphobia, I conquered so many fears I felt a slave to. I was no longer depressed because I had a responsibility and reward. I became a strong, confident leader. Pizza filled me with purpose and satisfaction. I miss pizza. I'm heartbroken. This has me in tears, it hit so close to home. Your art is phenomenal.

As someone who works at Little Caesars for $7.50/hr, I felt this. It's so depressing and numbing not knowing if or when I'll be able to find anything better and I'm afraid of becoming someone like this who feigns joy in her work for the sake of keeping my job, even though I know I absolutely hate it and it sucks and I get paid too little for doing so much work. The line "Today I made hundreds of pizzas for customers that don't know I exist, and made no correlation with the food they're eating and a working human being" really hit hard, because far too many people treat customer service workers like they're not even human beings and from first-hand experience, that shit sucks. Like we already hate coming to do extremely mundane work while being underpaid, we don't need to be yelled at and treated like sub-humans because of something that's usually not even in our control- and even if it was something in our control, we're still humans who are capable of making mistakes. This one hit so close to home.

Fuck man, this has actually become my life at this point. I’m so fucking depressed and work (food service, not pizza) is literally the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning. It gets me up because I have to. It’s the only thing keeping me remotely functional and sane and not jumping off a freeway overpass. But at the same time, I’m in this time loop, every day is the same dissociated mess. It doesn’t even feel real, like im just watching the same episode of a tv show over and over. There is no point and I can’t see the end. My life is a void. But I gotta get up tomorrow and make sandwiches.

This is the first video on Vewn’s channel and it’s still been my favorite for years. Guess what I watch after a long, tiring day at my pizza job?

My personal take is that they genuinely felt a sense of purpose from this job, but they realize on paper, it's a pretty shallow existence. It's kind of an existentially unsettling experience to realize that you're happy, but that you didn't choose it, and it's probably just because you have nothing else. It's kind of nice to think of that someone can do repetitive menial labor and be happy and find purpose in it, but is happiness and a sense of purpose really all you should want from an occupation? Don't we feel called to define ourselves and to take life as a great adventure? Accepting your lot in life is key to being happy, or is it? Do I genuinely choose this, or am I afraid of trying something else, or do I genuinely think this is all I'll ever be good for, and that trying to change will simply torture me, and make me hate myself for being unable to change? Or maybe I'll just stick with a regular job, finding what meaning that I can. This is getting long winded and you can bet that I'm applying a bit of myself to this, but some good art can bring stuff like that out of you.

This reminds me of a novel Conbini Ningen (Convinience Store Woman) by Sayaka Murata. The main character works for such a long time that she explains how she sees herself as being a very part of the store and it's her only purpose.

Паххахаха. Я только что уволился из пиццерии и тут это видео! Хахаха давно так не смеялся, чувак ты лучший

She has no joy for making pizzas. The “for a person who makes no association between their food and a working person” bit tipped me off that the whole monolog is dripping with sarcasm

As someone who tbh still faintly clings to my old job that to be honest I really fucking hated but I had nothing else...to do, the last line evokes so much despair over their current state of life, it's like clinging to something that you hate but know that without it, your life will get much worse.

I love how the style of these haven’t really changed over the last 6 years, it’s amazing

I think this has somewhat a sarcastic meaning but in a depressing way. She knows that she lies to herself that making pizza is the only thing that makes her happy but while repeating this everyday, she must believe in her self-concocted lie, because it is still better to do this, to go on with it, than falling into depression again. „You can’t take that away from me“ is actually a cry for help imo. It describes her loneliness, since she‘s being filmed all along (by her boss?) and the boss wouldn’t help her to reach a new level of happiness, he is too concerned with his own personal growth. So, her expression is ambiguous. I love these animations so much. So creative!

Why the fuck am I almost crying

"going to bed honey?" yes dear.

Honestly this seems like she’s putting up an act about liking making pizza. She never seems actually happy and still acknowledges how life is an endless repeating of actions that have seemingly no meaning, just like how the ppl who’ve eaten her pizza will forget about it and her and it’s inevitable. This just seemed sad to me

This made me cry.

i loooooove this

I love how the art style is so empty and quiet with the combination of the story perfectly describing depression as some kind of parasite that will never leave you until you forget about it but then remember it all over again.

Every single contribution made in society is basically this. Everything is forgotten, and all that remains is your now.

the good old "desperately clinging into things like they're some sacred beam in your life because you have nothing else to live for".

It's so powerful, the amount of interpretations this can have but one I haven't read is the parallelism of content makers, they do amazing illustrations or deep/beautiful animations/movies/short films, those are the pizzas and their creators and people who worked with them are the employees that deliver the pizza to thousands of people and they consume it, despite of the fact they are going to forget it and they make no correlation of the humans behind this, but they are happy because their message is seen by the people, even if the people don't know who create that work. As a content maker this amazes me because this is exactly how I feel. VEWN, I'm such a huge fan of yours 🖤

didnt expect this video to be one of the most powerful illustrations of Marx's alienation concept

Your editing style is badass idk how you do it it’s amazing

Time to do my monthly vewn binge rewatch session

to me, this is a person pleading desperately to keep the only job she can get

1:13 that sound of chop is perfect

I watch this almost everyday before work

This video is a mirror held up to life: what she describes as being her life actually sucks, but sucks less than doing nothing. Maybe we’re all just putting our happiness bar too high and this girl lowered it and she’s winning.

A legend was born

I just binge watched all your videos, I’m so in love with all your animations.

This is pure sarcasm contrast. Making pizza changed my life (ads are colorful, but life stays the same) I love this channel so much. The lines and dialogues are refined and meaningful. Psychedelic music and graphics. Make it ironic and cynical. Many people watch to make it like Shakespeare's Hamlet, and everyone understands it differently.

That hits differently cause I legit felt this way working for pizza places.

You gotta respect fast food workers never argue with them you don’t know what they go through a thx won’t hurt

as a pizza maker in my local pizzeria, it's pretty theraputic imo making the pizzas. idk, maybe i'm missing the message of the video

Coming back to this yt acc from 2019, I still see this video as high disturbing. A portrayal of some fully encapsulated by their job in a possessive manner. Not exactly liking their job since they know that it is meaningless, but since it is all they have they cling to it, being the thing that gives them "purpose".

To everyone who’s saying that she’s happy: she’s not, she’s depressed and her daily life keeps repeating over and over again without any meaningful change. She just feels empty and tries as much as she can to fake being happy with her work but in truth she’s just trying to tell herself that to convince her that it’s true although it actually isn’t.

guess you'll never know how much i love your films, they're so good.

Gosh, this resonated with me so much. The forced happiness for others eyes as I toiled away at a pizza job I hated because I needed to support my family

0:00 Here a legend is born

Ive watched all your videos and i just wanna say. Ive gained an unknown emotion i cant even explain

She is like the depressed version of Spongebob but with pizzas.

This gives me the amazon workhouse commercial vibes

There's a lot of pain in this video.

thanks i’ll say this in my next job interview

Loving your animationsss ♥

"you cant take that away from me."

love getting a papa johns ad for this

Ok I know this is probably supposed to be seen as "making pizza is not fun at all & I hate by job but I'm getting paid to say that I love it" but for real as a culinary student that sounds really really great. You get to make pizza, You get to make art, But no pressure for it to be perfect, Or ever seen again, No need for your art to be seen on walls & take up space, For some parts of the process too, you can zone out & think about other things & have deep philosophical conversations in your head while making pizza, The satisfaction of making smth good without it needing to take a long time like writing a novel would, It is appreciated so much & then is released & no need to think about it again, It's calming to be able to let things go. But also there are things I dislike. A lot of the time the "art" is not actually there & you are doing it for a job or to put food in ppl's mouths (which ig is good but not for their appreciation) & money in your boss's pocket. More about how much pizza you can serve in an hour than how good you can make every pizza this hour. You don't get the appreciation (at least, not face-to-face) of people enjoying your food & appreciating the convenience of not having to cook it themselves. I wish that more foodservice jobs were about loving serving good food, I wish they were less like "jobs" you know? the way ppl rely on money for basic everyday things takes away the joy that they could get from work. Work is nice. Jobs not so much. This video means a lot to me in different ways. I KNOW it is supposed to be ironic, she hates her job but has to say she enjoys it or make herself enjoy it but I'd rather interpret it in a way that she actually likes her job & enjoys the things she (or other ppl) might consider negative.

im just thinking about how this is literally what every burguoise expects from a working class employee.

ive been binge watching your stuff for the past couple minutes and bruh i love it

Imagine if this was Vewn talking about how she feels about her art and animations but using pizza as a cover 🫣😶‍🌫️

I think thats what also makes this piece so wholesome. The idea that Vewn gets to tell us how she truly feels about being able to create and how you can’t take that away from her but didn’t want to be to direct so she puts her own unique original Vewn spin to it and turns the center topic to pizza. I just like the idea of that 🫠

I love how many and how different the ways this can be interpreted so simple yet such a cool film. love your stuff, vewn

true art!

Why is it comforting to watch.. I have replayed it many times

Very emotional video. Good plot, scripting, characters, animation, and retro looking style. The best summary told about finding a job that makes you happy about, or perceiving your own job in a different way to save your own life and future. 100% rating here. And a golden animated oscar award.

I think this is like those promo videos with employees from for example Mc Donald’s telling about how they love their job and it’s their passion and stuff but we all know you work there because you need money. And working as a fast food employee is one of the most dead end unrewarding jobs because the customers don’t give a shit about who made their food and you barely make any money.

Omg i love you and your animations

I love your animations cause they are smooth and are very intriguing

Yeah, this is definitely what I imagine when I see commercials about fast food workers talking about how absolutely amazing their job is. They're trying to portray it as a dream when in reality the job is completely alienating whilst also being necessary for their survival, so they are happy to talk about how it is "all they have" because it is their only lifeline.

We could've stop wars if we had enough pizza

A great film that does justice to how much we all love pizza

I found this amazing channel from the movie dead end , now imma binge watch all of it

just watched all your vids. Love your work!!

I really hope I remember to watch this when I'm not on LSD

I’ve actually watched this many times on and off psychedelics 🤣

Marx's theroy of alienation in one minute and twenty seconds

I feel the same way. I got a job manufacturing small brass components that go inside fiber optic cameras. Ever since then it has been my life. I can't live without it, it saved my life.
