"Firekites - Autumn Story" Chalk Animation

A certain feeling, mixed from melancholy and zest for life.
A song, which invisibly nestles in your ears, and your inner record-player plays it over and over again when it begins to disappear.
1900 chalk drawings on a rough estimate.
6 months of work from start to finish.
03:29.
A beautiful vision, with something extraordinary inspirational.
Tears forming a moustache, then a beard.
Diamond raindrops.
Birds…

Chalk animated music video by Lucinda Schreiber and Yanni Kronenberg for the song "Autumn Story" by Australian band, Firekites.

Alexander McQueen Layered Illustration by Danny Roberts

I do constantly look for inspiration, to keep my imagination alive.
I follow lots of blogs, I start reading one, and it leads me up to another, then another, and the journey continues. I walk miles.

One of my newest favourites is the blog of California-based artist/thinker, Danny Roberts. His site features his artworks, sketches, paintings, illustrations, videos... an alternative world of his mind, a rare utopia of beauty.
--- Danny's blog is entitled "Igor + André", and is available through this link.

"The video I made by mapping camera movements of still pictures, I took of my McQueen Display. Basically, I love all of Alexander McQueen's Collections because they're straight out of a storybook. So with that said, I decided to create a world for McQueen's People. This Layered Display is what I came up with. I call it The Under Ground Forest." ~ Danny Roberts
