DUMPSTER — Episode 5

An episode of an "object show" — a YouTube animation genre in which anthropomorphised everyday objects compete in an elimination contest, voted on by the audience. The form descends from Battle for Dream Island, which began in 2010, and almost all of it is made by teenagers teaching themselves animation, voice acting and editing as they go. Episodes are long, the production improves visibly across a season, and the community around them is large and almost entirely invisible from outside it. The show is DUMPSTER. Episode 5.
