Pain from Alex Itin on Vimeo.

An Animation for Donald Johnson's song Pain. I made over 2,000 individual images iin Photoshop in an attempt to make something like a handmade digital animation. I call the characters cogs. They aren't cats and they aren't dogs and they aren't people. They are part of a narrative machine.

Song written and sung by Donald Johnson Music arranged, played, and produced by Javier Hernandez-Miyares Art and Animation by Alex Itin
