The View from Nowhere

Warm Digits "The View from Nowhere" (Josie Brookes and Tom Madge, dir.)

An animated collaborative video by Josie Brookes Illustration and Tom Madge of AnimateCity

The finished video was created using 2D stop-motion animation with Singer Emma Pollock’s performance cut from printed film stills. The undulating head belongs with, but is at odds to, Josie's bold sequences of geometric print. Together they push and pull with the song to explore ideas of identity and someone working to separate themselves from their humanity.
