What is it with these making-a-virtue-of-the-unconcealed-puppeteer vids at the moment?

I think that this is quite cool (good narrative, nice twists, effects & edit) but can never quite ignore its cheapness, to its detriment.

excellent. funny, clever and original. how refreshing to see a video that does whatever it wants and just goes off the scale. well done. best vid in ages.

I think the unconcealed-puppeteer vids work when the puppeteer is just as interesting to watch as the puppet.

Plus, I feel like these vids have been around for a couple of years now... I'd link to Nagi Noda's She's My Man and Kris Moyes' Heart It Races if I could use the search function... sorry...

Noda Moyes (and there's also Nico Beyer for Pet Shop Boys)

I agree. Unfortunately in this vid they're rather prosaic bar the (puppet-free) phone cameo.

How did you use the search function?


         
framescourer, May 27, 2008 at 8:26:46 PM CEST

typed names + "antville" into google

bravo. that was rad. The cheapness is what it is. I really enjoyed the phone part... perhaps more could have been done with the background... i know the point was to have it look like it was done in someones house... but i think "a black void" would have prob worked better than a brick wall with xmas lights hung up. Either way... you got the "feel" spot on and succeeded in making me want to watch the whole thing despite a kinda meh track. props alex smith.

Speaking of, anyone want a date for the eclectic mix screenings at the LA film festival? ;)

I LOVE this!


         
nu_shuz, May 28, 2008 at 2:36:38 PM CEST

brilliant. is this THE alex smith, of black dog fame? anyhoo, i loved this too, daft but beautiful. i think a black void here woulda been a letdown, the sense of place is part of the appeal. bravo alex.
