My dear friend, The Sherman Foundation has a dear friend, John Hobbs, who made this amazing video for Passion Pit, a band I hadn’t heard of before but which I want to dig into a little now.
Better watched in HQ. I can’t get Tumblr to embed HQ videos.
Here’s what TSF had to say about how it was made…
After they shot the footage for this new video he and his partners printed out every frame, thousands, manipulating/distressing them then glued them into thick bricks. They then built custom animation stands so they could rip/tear/animate the transitions etc., reshooting frame by frame then reimporting it all.
