Morph
This is the video which has given me some ideas of what i want to produce. The idea of having a character which is totally simple is an effective way of getting the animation/point across. Morph is an animated Plasticine stop-motion character that appeared in the beginning of 1977.


Kanye west - Heard em say
This is the second music video for "Heard 'Em Say". The animated video was co-directed by Bill Plympton  and Kanye himself and expresses Grayscale pencil-sketch animation. Kanye West had watched and loved Plympton's work since he was a child, saying that his images were important to him as a child. The two later collaborated to create Through the Wire: Lyrics and Illuminations, a graphic book filled with illustrations based on Kanye Wests West's song lyrics. To visually reproduce the tone of "Heard 'Em Say," Plympton depicted West as a cab driver working in a bleak, fictional city who picks up troubled passengers and eventually comes across a young boy and his mother. The animated segments are intercut with live-action scenes of West and Levine performing the song. According to Plympton, The child is meant to represent Kanye as a young boy and the film is about his experiences.


Kanye West - All of the lights
This is a video from kanye wests-All of the lights. The typography used in this video is synchronized to the beats and lyrics of the song. The animation changes every time...once the person is singing. For every word, the design changes, etc.




Citizens Cope


Citizens cope is a video which was shown to me from my college days... till this day i have have been inspired by the soundtrack/video. The video is very simple yet it has an effective way of showing it. this is shown through the colour, type, images and space used.
