Top Animators

BoingBoing bring us their highlights from the worlds top animators:

Heavy Helvetica

‘Dropclock is an aesthetically intriguing motion clock screensaver. Every minute of real time is numerically expressed with heavy helvetica dropping into water in super slow-motion’

I love helvetica, but the thought of overweight helvetica hitting me on the head whilst I’m in the bath frightens me. I am now fearful of heavy helvetica.

Food Fight

Via Drawn!

Phun

Yes, they spell Fun with a Ph and they like sub Coldplay bontempi music but…

Ray Harryhausen

They sure don’t do rodent modeling like they used to…

Nice work if you can get it

Nice, the Cote D’Azur 1994, my flat mate had drunk way too much coffee and asked me too meet ‘the Corsican’ at the corner of the Promenade des Anglais. On my way out the coffee fiend finally managed to re-spool the cassette tape, gently eased it into the tape machine and hit play, Led Zeppelin’s epic Kashmir began and we decided we’d try and throw empty bottles of water at ‘the Corsican’ from our balcony and not pay that month’s rent because that’s what the Zepp would do. Never say youth is mis-spent.

Steve Scott
was lucky enough to be asked to create the only animated backdrop at the recent 02 gig. His deco-psychedelic film played on a 28 x 12 meter screen as the band played Kashmir - the only video in the show.

Nice work if you can get it.
