Who directed this? This is definitely a "how'd they do that?" video, one of the year's best. This is the first time I've seen something I'd consider new since Chairlift's "Evident Utensil."macguffin, November 9, 2009 4:35:54 PM CET
Great video. Nice art directionA good reminder of the potential of indie videos beyond stop motion/claymation/arts & craft playtime.

Really great. The color coded art direction and the sock fireplace were nice touches. I was thinking motion control also but there's probably another way to do this.unobjet, November 9, 2009 7:15:07 PM CET
No parallax shift means the camera wasn't actually moving. I'd guess a bunch of locked off shots stitched in post. You can see a couple of wonky seams if you really look for them. Still, an ingenious use of technique. billcooper, November 9, 2009 7:22:15 PM CET

When I saw this earlier today I thought it was Mr Steiger Levine. He has a very precise style that seems to quite often involve the dissecting of human bodies. beefvolcano, November 10, 2009 1:39:34 PM CET
