We're only a little over one week into the QSMP and I'm already brain rotting, so, uh, take this impulsive decision I made to animate a cute animation meme that's been going around recently (featuring my design of QSMP Luzu and his AI counterpart, Arin)

![An Ocean Away | Aliveness SMP | S1 Ep3
This is the third episode of my time on season one of the Aliveness SMP! For this first season, we will be using the Double Life system from the Life Series mod, where each player’s health bar is shared with another player on the server. This episode will feature both session 4 and 5 since they go together as part of a larger story arc in the story I’m aiming to tell with this series and with Solarpunk duo. I hope you enjoy the angst of episode 3!
Infinite Love and Gratitude!

The Aliveness SMP is a survival multiplayer server that uses the Life Series mod. We are not affiliated with the original series by Grian in any way, we are inspired by it. We are a group of friends who want to experience the many systems the Life Series mod offers like Double Life / Wild Life / 3rd Life that our favorite YouTubers played with.

![The Humor of Frame-Shifts | A Class Project
Hello everybody! I know it’s been a hot minute since I’ve uploaded anything, but this past semester at college has absolutely DESTROYED me. This was by far one of the hardest semesters of school I’ve ever had, but I’m glad I survived and that it’s over, here’s to hoping the next semester won’t be as awful. Regardless, this project was super fun to work on! You might recognize a video I did last year about a very similar topic. That’s because I took a different class with the same professor, which also means the final project for the class could be completed in a similar way! Since I like to think I’m pretty good at making videos, I’ve decided to take another shot at this and explore the humor of frame-shifts this time around! I hope y’all enjoy the video!
As promised in the video, here is a more in-depth analysis/ breakdown of each frame-shift and why it’s humorous:
1. This first frame shift is set up with the following: “You see a lady pacing around in distress on the phone walking out from a veterinarian’s office. You hear her say “Please tell me you have found a cure for my salmon? Please do hurry, I’ve only got 3 hours to…” This helps set the scene and expectation of a distressed pet owner walking about of a veterinarian’s office asking about a cure for what could be assumed is the person’s pet fish. The addition of “only 3 hours” can help explain the degree of distress in the owner. However, the punchline introduced flips the initial projected meaning on its head with “… marinate it for the barbecue tonight!”. This changes the original frame to now just detail a person asking someone on the phone for a “cure” or seasoning to marinate the salmon she bought for a barbecue.
2. The second frame shift is set up with “I made a few paper cranes to help me and the boys get through work today. Unfortunately, they kept ripping when I…”. This suggests that the speaker had a rough day at work, likely at an office job where paper is readily available, and made origami paper cranes to pass the time, only to possibly have them rip when mishandled. However, with the addition of the punchline, the initial frame is shifted “… tried to use it at the construction site”. The context is now changed to a construction worker making construction cranes out of paper, which of course would rip upon trying to lift steel beams.
3. The third frame shift is set up as “Did you hear that Helen kicked the bucket last week? It’s such a shame since now she won’t be competing in the next game. Praying that her…”. This sets up the context that Helen passed away and won’t be competing in the game she was supposed to be in. The set up seems to be praying for her family or teammates, but the punchline “… broken ankle heals quickly” immediately subverts the meaning of the initial context to mean Helen literally kicked a bucket and broke her ankle.
4. The fourth frame shift is set up with “Carla, mother of two enters the living room where she hears loud dubstep music blasting through the speakers. Her youngest son Sam shouts “this is my jam!”. Carla, confused asks “But I thought you hated dubstep?”. Sam shouts back…”. The context here sets up the fact that Same doesn’t usually listen to dubstep, but seems to be stating otherwise. It isn’t until the punchline where we find out that he wasn’t talking about the music, “… No mom, Steve is trying to steal my jar of strawberry jam!”
5. The fifth and final frame shift sets up the joke with “I hate waking up early. My mom keeps telling me the early bird gets the worm, but it’s gonna take a lot more than…” which seems to set up an expectation of the speaker being fed up with a meaningless saying. However the punchline now changes the meaning of the phrase from meaning metaphorical earth worms to meaning candy worms, with “…candy to convince me to wake up early”.
Edit: Additional credit towards the original sources of the frame-shift paradigm, especially Seana Coulson, and the idea of frames (Charles J. Fillmore and Marvin Minsky).
