Last Sat­ur­day at Nudashank was the open­ing of Jor­dan Bernier’s solo show, New Waves. I was hav­ing cam­era issues and only had my cell phone with me, but I absolutely loved the show. I’m always a fan of Jordan’s work, and was excited to see the large graphite draw­ings he produced. One ele­ment of Jordan’s ...

Dri­ving around Kansas City, MO this past week­end, I heard this song on the radio. Look­ing it up on Youtube, I was able to watch the offi­cial music video. I like the song and like the stop-motion paint­ing and body paint­ing that is utilized. ...

If you cel­e­brate them, happy hol­i­days! I am cur­rently in Kansas City, Mis­souri cel­e­brat­ing Christ­mas with my family. If you are not over­come with the hol­i­day spirit (much like I am), then per­haps you can appre­ci­ate these short ani­ma­tions from Treat Stu­dios. A bit “anti Christ­mas,” with some nice surprises. Check out Treat Stu­dios for ...

Tobias Stretch recently shared with me the newest video he directed, the Post War Years’s All Eyes. The music video mixes the real with ani­ma­tron­ics and pup­petry which feels a bit bizarre but an inter­est­ing watch. Also, I really like the song. Check it out below!

This is a few weeks old by now, but recently I saw the newest video for Fleet Foxes off their Help­less­ness Blues album. Stacy Rozich (pre­vi­ously fea­tured here) has cre­ated the char­ac­ter illus­tra­tions for The Shrine/An Argu­ment, an epic song that’s both haunt­ing with a bit of heartbreak. The hazy, dif­fused col­or­ing in the ani­ma­tion ...

If you’re like me, you might enjoy see­ing the process of work and how it is made. Tyson Anthony Roberts recently sent me a cou­ple of videos that doc­u­ment his painting: Below, an oldie but a goodie. I’ve never done dig­i­tal paint­ing, but Jeremy Enecio is a pro. I am con­tin­u­ally mesmerized: Watch­ing paint­ing is ...

As a kid I loved Mark Kistler and his Draw Squad. Head on over to BIG THINGS to read about this weird per­sonal phe­nom­ena. Below is a video les­son (a sam­pling), com­plete with awe­some intro song. ...

I’ve writ­ten about Alli­son Schul­nik before and had no idea she made videos! Thanks to Alex for post­ing this amaz­ing and face melt­ing (lit­er­ally) stop-motion ani­ma­tion. It is hyp­notic and a bit haunt­ing. I love it. ...

Happy Mon­day, all! Check out the dizzy­ing Heck­sagons by Kristin Farr, below: The rapid-fire pre­sen­ta­tion of these hexa­gons are entranc­ing. I’ve hit replay mul­ti­ple times (and pause as well) to study the dif­fer­ent pat­terns and color combination. heck­sagons from kristin farr on Vimeo. ...
