Music video research: Animation workshop


Animation worskshop -26th June 2013

On the 26th June we had an all day animation with Mark Charlton from Blue Star animation who professionally produced the Golden Thread music video for the artist Passenger.
In this workshop we were taught about some simple stop motion animation where animation of cardboard characters were moved slightly before taking a picture and then moving again.
Another form of animation that we eperimented with using is pixelation - where animation is (like stop motion) built up of lots of pictures of people.

Here is another example of how stop frame animation is used in music videos in the indie rock band Wildlife Control's song Analog or Digital.
