Jessi Williams & Coyote “Roam, Little Gypsy, Roam”
“The burdens of dual identities — mother and career woman — weigh heavily on Jessi Williams in the exceptionally moving new video for the song, ‘Roam, Little Gypsy, Roam.’ The video is essentially a biopic in under 4 minutes, dreamily portraying the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist across three stages of life."
~ Kevin Bronson, Buzzbands LA
Featuring appearances from Jessi's real-life mother and daughter, the video uses a dreamy atmosphere and brilliant camera work to highlight themes of motherhood, aging, and domesticity across three generations.

HUSBANDS | MANHORSE
All animations were captured in-camera using card stock and transparency sheets. Barrier-grid animation, kinegrams, or picket fence animation is an optical illusion that originated in the 1890s. To make the base image for the animation several frames of video were combined into one interlaced image, which was then printed on card stock. A transparent bar mask was printed next, placed on top of the interlaced image, and moved back and forth to create the illusion of movement.

Broken Bells "Good Luck"
Ralph, a lonely kid in a forgotten town, has a miraculous gift. He can see beauty manifested through beams of light permeating from people who are ignored and seemingly invisible - just like him.
To achieve the light ray effect, we hand traced and laser-cut over 4000 frames to create shape mattes, then physically shined light and haze through each individual frame to produce the stop motion effect. By mixing old school animation with practical haze over live-action footage, we were able to create the eerily atmospheric new dimension you see embedded in each frame.

Earth Odyssey - Asaf Avidan (Official Video)
This video was made by dancers from different continents filming themselves in their confinement with their personal phones and computers.
It was made in the first week of April 2020 while almost 2 billion people around the globe were unable to move freely due to the restrictions imposed in attempt to prevent the spread of the Corona Virus.
"I found so much beauty in the need of people to keep on playing music from their balconies or dance together through virtual meeting applications… To simultaneously succumb to and transcend earthly limitations by artistic endeavours.
These are stressful times, and maybe it helps to remember that we are all a part of a mutual story.
An experience of searching for meaning and control in this storm of a life.
We all go through this one way or another.
And in that… We are not alone
This is our Odyssey." (Asaf Avidan)
