    what type of animation technique is that? what's it called so that I can research how to do it myself? i love the video.. great stuff
  • Molasses Murphy 3 months ago
    Thanks Jarrod! It's traditional animation for the girl and the scenes outside the treehouse at night and walking to the jam session. Pencil on paper photographed with a digital camera. The rest is digital cutout animation. Lots of drawn pieces of the characters scanned in, edited in Photoshop and then animated in After Effects. The cameras & compositing are done in that software too. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

    This is really beautiful! I find the narration a bit slow though... But I don't know if it's not a style that would miss if it wasn't this way... Anyway, I love the end, the music is excellent, the character design is so cute and the backgrounds so stylish :o)
    Bravo!
  • Molasses Murphy 3 months ago
    Thanks Rob! We were trying to make it as slow as possible so glad you found it only a bit too slow. :D
  • Rob Mayol 3 months ago
    Hehe so it was intended. We hurry a bit too much that's for sure!

    By the way, congrats for replying all the comments, not everybody still do it after more than 7000 views ;)
