Stop Motion Wednesday - No Corras Tanto: Sand Animation

by Daniel Neville on 2010/09/01

There is not much to say about this weeks stop motion video apart from the following words - creative, mind-blowing, time consuming and mind-blowing again. Seriously im not kidding - Cesar Diaz spent 3 months making this stop motion film out of nothing but sand, a light table and camera….

So are we agreed? Mind blowing or not? Check out the making of below if you are not convinced! 

Stop Motion Wednesday - Crooked Rot

by Daniel Neville on 2010/08/25

Over the last year or so we have seen stop motion animation start to crop up more and more as a style in television ads for some big brands - the best examples have to be Amazon and Olympus Cameras. But today I thought we would take a few steps back and look at a much older stop motion animation (more of a short film really) that was created just as digital SLR cameras were becoming popular. So enjoy this little gem below titled Crooked (Orcus) Rot by David Firth;

Im sure you will agree that Crooked (Orcus) Rot is a bit on the bizarre side of things - infact its so bizarre you could mistake it for the stop motion love child of David Lynch and Salvador Dali. Never the less it does illustrate how much better an SLR camera does with capturing natural light and since they have become cheep enough for almost anyone to own one we now know why there is so much amazing stop motion work out there! Oh incase you were wondering the music is by composer Marcus Fjellström and Crooked (Orcus) Rot is a 100% stop motion film - no CGI, after effects or computer filters used. That actually makes it more creepy…. 
 

Stop Motion Wednesday - BIG BANG BIG BOOM

by Daniel Neville on 2010/08/18

If you are a regular reader of this blog you probably remember BLU's last stop monition project called COMBO - an amazingly creative collaborative piece with David Ellis anther very talented street artist. Well twelve months later (I honestly am constantly amazed at the time and effort required to do this) BLU has out done himself and produced something that is possibly even better - presenting BIG BANG BIG BOOM

With more than 3,5 million views across various postings of the video in one month BIG BANG BIG BOOM is an "unscientific point of view on the beginning and evolution of life…and how it probably end" - Some quite heavy subject matter but I have always though the story of evolution is a perfect fit with BLU's style. This video is simply inspiring from start to finish. Everything from sound design to the amount of detail in each shot… brilliant im sure you would agree.
