1. Meeting Of Important People //// Brittney Lane

3 months ago

Everything in this video was built out of cardboard. Promptly after shooting the set was destroyed and taken back to the recycling dumpsters from which they came. The set took two weeks to build with a schedule of eight hours a day with an average of five volunteers a day. The stop animation took about three weeks to complete.

Shot with a Cannon Mk II

Hey Andy, we shot on the mk2 with a zoom lens, I forget the mm range I think it was f2.3 also.
Andy Scott 3 months ago

Impressed! I thought it looked like mk2 but was questioning it because its so sharp/smooth. Most of the 5d stuff I see is too shallow/shaky. Again great work!

This is terrific ! The song was great and your editing was perfect. How long did it take to create the cardboard city ?
thomglunt 2 months ago

Hey Micheal, It took over 2 weeks about 8 hours a day. We had an average of 5 people a day and a few buildings that didn't make it into the video.

i love it when something so simple (cardboard) can be used in so many ways and become something so complex... set + character. nicely done.
