Quick Look at some other experimental animations

Erään hyönteisen tuho (The Death of an Insect)

First thoughts: The most striking quality about this short film is the movement, although the detail in the models and the huge variation of lighting adds greatly to the piece but the movement is what creates this sort of pure beauty from what many people would consider to be disgusting things, the film seems to relate the insects and their movements to aspects of human life, to begin with it seemed like despair, falling and things falling apart, it then started to turn to destruction and as soon as the light to dark horizon shows up and the sun moves rapidly to the right the insects begin marching and almost look like they have guns. By the end of the film the insects are incorporated with our real world and have created complex ethereal machines that float above our cities.

The overarching theme seems to be humanities disrespect for all forms of life and our preference to destroy rather than create, much of the piece feels very dramatic, and is lit in such a way that seems to suggest its not about how good we are. Our ability to despair, destroy things, wage war, and create things all come across over the course of the video and all of them take part on a never ending cycle a rhytm of life that is much the same as an insect spiralling towards the ground or the DNA within us as humans.

The most striking thing in this animation is the timing, and through the composition the camera simply zooms in the entire time but speeds up and slows down at certain points, the movement is also largely quite uniform along isometric tangents and its through this compositional clarity that gives the music video its visual appeal
