What the Hell is Happening to Fantasy
Youtube is flooded with videos about Rings of Power and the Acolyte, but I think what we re seeing right now in Fantasy is part of a bigger trend. This video charts the history and ideology of Elevated Fantasy and how we can coursecorrect with Enlightened As a writer of fantasy, this video is close to my heart. I didn t make this explicit in the video, but I consider this a kind of manifesto for my own creative efforts going forward. If you d like to see more videos on fantasy, writing, outlining, etc, please let me know Check out my podcast. We have an episode where we talk about the best of 80s Sword and Sorcery films Most of my videos are not monetized so check out my patreon, where you can find bonus content: CHAPTERS 0:00 The Fantasy Itch 1:48 What is Elevated 8:35 What is Fantasy 12:46 The Mythospectrum 18:30 The Origin of Consciousness 24:43 Clashes of the Titans 28:37 Enlightened Fantasy 34:42 To the Fantasy , videoessay, theacolyte, ringsofpower, fantasy
