    fantastic - what could have been easily done in CG takes on an incredible tactile and tangible feel in stop motion... great work.

  •  
  • Tom Wiedemann 1 year ago
    First it looks like animation but then I realized the textures of the blocks which gives a whole lot of soul to the video.
    Love the combination of this artificial sound and the handmade video. Truly a beast of a project! Really great!

  • Majorg 1 year ago
    unreal!
    its crazy how there is no sense of real world scale until the reveal in the end - I could have sworn that it was filmed in an entire room! Very cool use of mirroring too - not an easy effect to make so subtle

  • Edwin Haverkamp 1 year ago
    very nice! I saw it on youtube and because of the quality and the small screensize I thought it was just some 3d visuals edited on the music. But when I went fullscreen I realized it's stopmotion :)

    like like like

    this would demonstrate exquisite aesthetics and sequencing if it was just done in CG, but doing it by hand has blown me away.

    I feel like I should go and unlike some of my other videos now just to give this one the credit it deserves.

    from what I can see, you're always capturing 1/4 of the screen and mirroring (and sequencing the mirroring). and you also seem to be using projection for a bit of it.

    did you sketch this out on a computer beforehand?
    although the making of video is definitely hilarious, I'm left wanting to know more about your process.

    incredible. seminal.
