Band Of Horses: In a Drawer

We produced this video for the awesome guys from Band Of Horses. The Memory Monster, a mechatronic puppet we designed, is in love with a beautiful girl (Assira Abbate). He collects her memories in order to feel closer to her. This video also contains sequences animated in stop-motion and 2D. We had a blast working on this beautiful project!

 
The directors employ little bursts of stop-motion and animation to great effect, turning a would-be creepy concept improbably cute.

Roy and Vonno Ambriz wrote and directed the clip, which features a strange creature straight out of one Jim Henson’s weirder productions (such as The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth), as he tries to woo a girl.
