The Temper Trap: Love Lost

The Temper Trap: Love Lost The Temper Trap music video dance

It’s beyond me how I haven’t seen this before. A fantastic video for Love Lost by The Temper Trap. The video was directed by Dougal Wilson and shot over two extremely frigid days on Walthamstow Marshes just outside London. (via it’s nice that)

Fun new video for We Got More by Eskmo off of Ninja Tune. Kind of has a modern Terry Gilliam animation feel to it that I really dig. (via hirngerechte gestaltung)

We Have Band: You Came Out

We Have Band: You Came Out stop motion music video faces creepy colors animation

Stumbled onto this 2009 stop motion video for You Came Out by We Have Band, it’s lovely if not slightly bizarre.

The face paint animation film is made up of 4,816 separate stills. Each and every frame was hand-painted, shot, wiped off and redrawn, slightly differently for the next frame in order to create a seamless sequence. This time-consuming process involved the band members lying still for two consecutive days in a studio.

In order to animate the singing bit, lip movement was created by animating a painted mouth on the singer Dede. This involved breaking the lyrics into phonetics and giving each sound a specific mouth shape. To make this as realistic as possible all the mouth shapes were painted on Dedes face individually and then shot. All 4,816 frames of the music video can be found on Flickr

If you’re lucky enough to live in Italy they’ll be in Milan tomorrow night and Bologna on Friday. (via polkadot)

Gaëtan Roussel: Help Myself

Gaëtan Roussel: Help Myself people outdoors music video french community

Stills from the really fun music video for French recording artist Gaëtan Roussel’s Help Myself. I definitely get the feeling that the producers descended on some small town in the middle of nowhere, knocked on everyone’s door and said, “OK so you’re in our huge music video now. All you need to do is run in a circle for a few hours.” (via mark maggiori)

Ratatat: Neckbrace

Ratatat: Neckbrace repitition ratatat music video birds

As with most things Ratatat I’m not exactly sure what’s going on here but I think I like it. Their latest video for Neckbrace (heavy in rotation lately) stays true to their latest album cover.
