Michel Gondry Apprentice?

by Andrew James
May 23rd, 2008

Going to the bar on a school night isn’t always the best idea. But some good came of it. My good friend, who is a video editor, and I got talking about video editing and what-not and he mentioned this little video he stumbled across that has some of the most pain-staking, stop motion animation he’s ever seen. Like a good soldier, he sent me the link to the video this morning. I thought it was definitely worth posting.

For those that appreciate animation, short films or just some old fashioned hard work, this is quite impressive…



Made in Buenos Aires and in Baden (fantoche)

  3. Awesome video. I’m having a hard time believing it’s actual stop motion. Amazing stuff.
