Another hypnotizing animated music video to enjoy as part of our short film collection. This video is for a track from American rapper Mac Miller titled The Star Room. It's pretty trippy, following a character on a journey. "The storyline begins & ends with a candid embryo-like character, showcasing their growth and transformation through diverse landscapes and encounters." Director Danaé Gosset explains: "My goal was to capture the essence of a transformative journey while maintaining a childlike curiosity towards exploring different worlds." She also says she was inspired by Moonrise Kingdom, because the song takes a sample from the film's soundtrack. "To bring the video to life, we meticulously crafted a hand made layered collage-like technique. We employed a diverse range of physical mediums such as paint, color pencils, gouache, and more." My fave one is the big furry dude, and the super hairy dog creature thing. So much creativity in this.
