    At the risk of whining and being totally self absorbed- This is SO beautiful and moving I dispare at being able to consider myself a filmaker. I am grateful to be in such good company.

    I'm interested in the Compositing workflow on this. I assume you shot the background plates, tracked them, exported the camera data or matched it in a 3D scene and began the stop motion animation matching the camera data after testing with a slop comp previs (especially for the two headed wheel chaired man). This is artistically and technically an awesome achievement. Another guy using stop motion and live plates... you've probably seen it but figured you'd be interested. youtube.com/watch?v=Ywu1DeqXTg4

    After watching your radio head video, I'm pretty sure you're doing the stop motion live on set. Amazing!!! I'm sure it's both nice and a nightmare to have to get through your stop motion seconds faster based on the requirements of the live shoot per shot rather than in a studio atmosphere. It's really an amazing look that probably couldn't be duplicated in post. Mesmerized by it.

    incredible colors and detail! brilliant stop motion and the music just adds to the beauty of this video! love the concept of the baby! i don't quite understand it that well but nevertheless the video is just well made and you get drawn into watching it. Kudos!

    Hey I'm real glad it pulled you before you changed the channel that is always the hardest part. The Child is new life arriving as the elderly wheelchair dudes are life exiting. The colorful glowing alien/angel creature is the portal in and out of life. It's the cycle of life.
    Thanks!

    What an astounding vision! And I'm pretty sure that my fever went away a day or two ago. I'm still trying to think of words to do this justice. Perhaps I'll post again if I can find better words.

    Amazing "life backwards" music video. Efterklang are great and you really put a big efford into this. Stop motion is so time demanding.

    Bloody mega mate! Do you make all your own puppets? The two headed old feller creeped me out to the core. He will be running me over in my dreams tonight! Your dedication and enthusiasm for your art is super clear from your movies man. Inspiring! Another fan here!!
