this is fantastic....

This is excellent. I'm sure that was a LOT of work but it was worth it.

Not only is the fx work great, it was a total complement to the song and overall tone. Really transported me and left a sense of nostalgia and loneliness and I liked that. Awesome.

"There is not a single frame of CG work in this." please elaborate

Just that it wasn't a 3D rendering. After Effects, as opposed to Maya or some such.

forgetmenot, June 8, 2011 at 10:00:29 PM CEST

@lusk81 and @najork: I find it very hard to believe all of the effects were created in After Effects and/or without any 3D rendering. The holes in the body clearly have dimensionality to them. Do you have any sources or behind-the-scenes info on this? I'd be interested to know how it was accomplished....

pancho, June 8, 2011 at 10:32:11 PM CEST

i'd love a little tech breakdown. beautiful art btw. thumbs up.

brigs, June 8, 2011 at 11:09:34 PM CEST

Amazing work Najork. Really well done.

stoney, June 9, 2011 at 9:25:00 AM CEST

this thread is proof that the antville community can sometimes be awesome. nice one najork.

discoteer, June 9, 2011 at 11:42:08 AM CEST

this is so beautiful. the visuals suit the song perfectly.

jesse.ewles, June 9, 2011 at 4:40:46 PM CEST

Awesome! Yeah, for lock-down shots where the body is swaying, they could have just done some sweeet photoshop plates and animated with a mesh warp AE. My favourite is the fall away shot from the window. :) Haunting.

kevathens, June 9, 2011 at 8:28:09 PM CEST

Great! Sweet!

motleycrew, June 10, 2011 at 10:47:40 AM CEST

Supreme. Excellent. Tres bien. Some really haunting resonating imagery. The people dancing through the windows... The lights in the sky. Gorgeous.

najork, June 10, 2011 at 10:26:36 PM CEST

Thanks everyone!!! I was certainly hoping people would dig it here of all places.
I'm trying to get some shot breakdowns together. I'll let you know when those are posted.

pancho, June 10, 2011 at 11:46:55 PM CEST

looking forward. cheers.

progosk, June 13, 2011 at 8:05:47 PM CEST

quite lovely indeed. (viz. jaron a & b steiger l, but with nice bunch of own poetics.)

najork, June 22, 2011 at 5:33:49 AM CEST

BEHIND THE SCENES najork.net I was waiting for this to go up on another site, but they seem to be not getting around to it.

otc, June 23, 2011 at 9:29:57 AM CEST

Thanks for sharing Najork.

pancho, June 24, 2011 at 1:48:39 AM CEST
