Lucy Boltz- Stop Motion Animation

I have decided to post two music videos as examples because to me animation is much more than moving objects or illustrations. Music, and of great selection, the music selection is extremely important. Its amazing how a song can change the mood and theme of an animated work. The Cocorosie video is not conventional animation, but the images juxtaposed with the music selection is very alive and the use of various layers of moving images to create images is remarkable.

12 - Ahalya Nirmalan: Animation

Over the weekend, I saw an art exhibition called Street Level in the Boston Institute of Contemporary Art. It consisted of work created by Mark Bradford, William Cordova, and Robin Rhode.

Robin Rhode's photography sequences and digital video animations caught my attention. I couldn't find a youtube video of one of the animations I really liked from the exhibition, but here is one of his works...

Ethan Cecchetti: Rejected

For those of you who have never seen this, to say it's ridiculous would be an understatement. That said, it has some quite interesting animation especially near the end.

Zung - Baroque Art

(Peter Paul Rubens. Portrait of Helen Fourment, 1638)

the Baroque art movement evolved in Europe around the 17th century as a reaction against the formulaic and overly stylized High Rennaisaince. Baroque art, hence, is less complex, direct, dramatic,natural and focuses on emotion. Baroque style was initially inspired by the Roman Catholic Church's request for religious art works to speak to the illiterate and not only the high class.
