Siamese Cats "I've got to take the laundries in"

A Rock band SIAMESE CATS's first full-length animation music video. A road movie depicting the adventure of "Mushi (insect) kun" going through the town, desert, the universe (!), giving a new interpretation to the strong lyrics of the same song "I have to take in the laundry". Made by "WHOPPERS". This is the first tag in this unit with Sanuki Naoya and Zukku who worked on a record jacket and merchandize design of SIAMESE CATS in the past. It is their first work of an animation full of humor and freshness.

2017 / United States / 0:03:06

AIN'T OVER is an experimental music video of consciousness through indigo hues; a young woman discovers strength in an internal world while daydreaming on a train. Animated dreamscapes overlaid on dyed canvas merge geometric and organic forms. Combined with layered analog synths, bass, and ethereal vocals, Ain't Over evokes themes of persistence, yearning, and memory.

Young Marco "Trippy Isolator"

2017 / Netherlands / 0:03:35

The song is divided in parts. Every part is turned into a scene. Every scene is made up of a pile of paintings.Every pile/scene has its own ‘recipe’, or set of rules. The beginning and ending of every scene within the song is exactly timed. Every thing happening in between a scene is left to chance. The themes of the different scenes are not related to the music.

Awesome Beetle’s Colors

2016 / Latvia / 0:03:12

"Awesome Beetle’s Colors” is a 3.13 minutes long, fun and educative plasticine animation. The story goes: Awesome Beetles Color Dirty Elephant. Five Gorgeous Hippopotamuses Inspire the Jaguar. Kangaroos Like Marmelade. Naughty Octopuses Photograph the Queen. The Royal Spider Teaches an Unhappy Vampire. Wariors X-ray a Yellow Zebra. A nearly impossible story, supported by a catchy melody, guides us through the ABCs. There are many letters in the Alphabet and in the process of learning they are usually linked to nouns. We have created a link between all the letters of the Alphabet using nouns, adjectives and verbs. But most importantly -we also offer visual, audial and kinesthetic associations that help children in the process of learning.
