Today, we’re testing out an idea for a brand new recurring feature with a video I have grown quite fond of.
Between last fall and this summer, I helped to coordinate a collaborative animated video for a track from rapper, Glass Hamlet’s 2017 EP, #NOTYOURART.
Our animation team ultimately included 28 artists from 13 countries on every inhabitable continent. Each animator was given a brief section to rotoscope in his or her own style and color palette of choice.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped to make this video possible. It’s not every day one gets a chance to be a part of something this special.
