El-P :: Stepfather Factory

Filed under: Animation, Music — Tags: Definitive Jux, El-P, Stepfather Factory — Ansel @ 1:24 pm September 5, 2010

Not to sound like an Old-Skool grandad, but Hip-Hop in its prime is an art form of humour, genuine emotion and boundless creativity. When it achieves those heady heights, it looks a lot like El-P’s Stepfather Factory from 2001.

A product for society becomes a product of society in this thought provoking (but ultimately slept on) addition to the nature vs nurture debate.

The video may not have made it to MTV and the like, but when it comes to a creative concept that’s both brilliantly thought out and impactful, work like this should pop up on your radar.

KOBRA :: A compilation

Filed under: Animation, Illustration — Tags: Kristofer Ström — Ansel @ 8:56 pm July 26, 2010

Impressive showreel from Kristofer Ström; the maker of Benga’s Baltimore Clap.

He uses a simple hand-made style full of charm and plenty of character, or should I say characters. Enjoy.

One of Dubstep’s finer exponents – Benga – goes all Art-house Plus courtesy of video direction by Kristofer Ström.

BIG.

Sam O’Hare :: The Sandpit

Filed under: Animation, Film, Photography — Tags: Sam O'Hare, The Sandpit — Ansel @ 2:49 pm March 10, 2010

My friend Jason pointed me in the direction of this masterful video by director and visual effects guru Sam O’Hare.

The way Sam plays with the sense of scale and movement is truly a joy to behold, as it makes for one utterly enchanting piece of work.

Now why didn’t my train-set ever look like that?
