“The video you see in the end is purely physical frame by frame animation. Everything you see is photographs of paper with no effects whatsoever. One of the most challenging parts of making the video was looking at the computer screen during the pre-animation phase in rigid black and white with no shadow or depth, and trying to visualize how it would later look and work as paper in 3D space. We had to determine ahead of time which images to cut as positives or negatives, how to anchor the cutouts to the paper frame that surrounds it so the pieces wouldn’t fall out, and a host of other problems.
The final stage was photographing – good old stop-motion animation done at 15 frames per second. The frames were hung vertically from hooks in 23 rows, row 1 being closest to the camera, row 23 farthest away. The rig was setup in our makeshift cave of thick black blankets hung from the ceiling to keep out all light. The paper scenes were then lit from the front and below, and photographed with a digital still camera on a tripod. Each photo is viewed for 1/15th of a second and each cutout represents one layer within a frame. A single frame could have anywhere from 2-100 layers, with a setup time of 20 seconds to 5 minutes. Shooting took a full week of mostly sleepless nights, and Erez holds the record with 5 all-nighters in a row.”-says Sam Cohen
The wonderfully eclectic Avalanches ‘Frontier Psychiatrist’ video directed by Kuntz and Macquir.
By the way, someone analyzed all the samples that was used there and it’s a pretty impressive amount of tracks: from the movie Polyester, Maurice Jarre – Overture, Harvey Mandel – Wade in the water, Enoch Light Singers – My way of life, Wayne and Shuster – Frontier Psychiatrist – I was a T.V. addict, Flip Wilson – Cowboys and colored people – Midget – Riot suit, Silvana mangano – El negro zumbon.

Can you think of anything else
A record, record, record !

Today we want to share one song by our local musicians Eglė and Aivaras.
mmpsuf – could be plainly labelled as an electro-acoustic project. It is made of layers of vocals, harmony, electronic off-beat and steady rhythms, all of which strangely make sense. But the beauty behind this lies in the imagery, spaces and stories, which emerge with it — all so simple but so real.
