VIDEO: Beautifully Animated Bumps for Japanese SciFi Channel


These animations by Nando Costa for FOX Japan are well done and super surreal. on Vimeo.

From the artist:
"My approach was based on the concept "The Other Side", which refers to stereotypes in science fiction material such as speculations of another dimension. Concrete blocks populating the various scenes of grassy fields behave as symbols for the so called "Other Side" and were loosely inspired by artist Donald Judd.

During the production of these animations I had the pleasure of collaborating with processing artist Robert Hodgin to create a complex flock of birds entangled in strings. Robert utilized a single bird cycle that we've made to create an application that allowed us to control and generate animations of the flock in an intricate flight dance. After some compositing and styling these animations became the identity of the channel's horror segment."
