Nachthexen - The Animation Workshop

4/20/2018

Comments

 

Nachthexen from The Animation Workshop on Vimeo.

An elderly, soft-spoken veteran recalls when she joined the Soviet Air Force’s first all-female bombing squad. She reminisces about her friend Katja, and how they made the best of their antique equipment, struggled with being ostracised from their male comrades, and earned the fearful German nickname 'Nachthexen'.

NATIONAL - James Vincent McMorrow - Directed by Giant Ant

4/19/2018

Comments

 

James Vincent McMorrow // National from Giant Ant on Vimeo.

This video for James Vincent McMorrow’s ‘National’, revolves around a man and a car, which serves as a container for various moments that present the character’s insecurity and loneliness, but also love. The car is a claustrophobic room and a vast space—a shield against the world outside, and the perfect spot to listen to music in the rain. Everything about the song, from the stripped-back instrumentation to the raw vocal, is incredibly moving and personal. We wanted to compliment this with a similarly emotive video that tells a story of unrequited love, interiority, and the complicated feelings that surround painful but treasured memories.

MONDAY - Directed by KWON OH HOON

MONDAY from KWON OH HOON on Vimeo.

"What is the first thing you think of when you wake up on a Monday morning?"
Do you regret not spending the weekend better than you expected? Do you worry about how you are going to survive the next 5 days at work which will feel like a month? Whether at work or school, Monday is not welcomed but it keeps coming. I have portrayed the daily scene of getting ready on a Monday morning.
The joy of weekend is yet to leave us, however, we must shake it off and wash ourselves up. Because yet again, Monday has come."

"짧디짧은 이틀간의 주말을 보낸 월요일 아침, 눈을 뜨면 우린 어떤 생각을 할까? 지난 주말을 왜 더 알차게 보내지 못했을까, 그리고 앞으로 한 달처럼 느껴지는 5일이라는 시간을 어떻게 버틸까. 쉬지 않고 일이나 공부를 해야 하는, 미워할 수밖에 없는 오늘 하루 '월요일'이다.
단지 월요일이라는 이유만으로 회사, 또는 학교로 향하는 우리의 풍경을 담아보려고 한다. 주말의 달콤함이 아직 몸에 배어있지만, 씻어내고 벗어날 준비를 해야 한다.오늘은 단지, 월요일이니까"

A RATHER LOVELY THING - EL DIABLO

A rather lovely thing from El Diablo on Vimeo.

A little story about love & adventure.
This project is not the best technical achievement for sure but I´m pretty happy with the final result. I realized that true inspiration comes from great experiences whether are good or not and great experiences are a consequence from things we love. There is a whole universe for you to be discovered and explored.

Beautiful music from one of the best and most eclectic 2003 albums "Neveroddoreven" by one of my all time favourites: "I monster"
get this album here:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/neveroddoreven/id250400094
http://www.amazon.com/Neveroddoreven-I-Monster/dp/B000293NI0

This project was done during early 2013 for a school iniciative, this wasn´t or isn´t intended to be commercialized in anyway. Music copyrights belongs to their original owners.
