Nice one. Makes you realise how wonderful and interesting the natural world is. Why do people bother to get into all that pseudo mysticism crap when the natural world is so full of mystical things. :)

Body Riddle is still album of 2006 (and 2007) foe me.

[Dub DeLay]

i know, i posted this for you :)

I can't get that video at the moment but I will when I get home... For now I just wanted to say that Body Riddle is amazing.

:)

[Dub DeLay]

oh, and for you too :)

That was mint :D
I'm happy to say I saw Chris Clark perform a live PA in london, 2001.
I'm unhappy to say I don't remember squat about the gig :(

it's not baaaaad, but the dudes who made it have done a lot better.

check out their adidas modular man advert and the clip they did for alias' sixes last. much more interesting, if you ask me.

Is that for real or are some of those generated? Either way is quite wild.
I have to buy some Clark and some Mira Calix, a mate has played me all of the stuff that's come out recently, now just got to get my own copies!

Yep it's 3D i think the cuts help disquise the anthropomorphic tendencies that animators all have
"yeah lets make a robo-scorpion act like a human" but the editor is clever he cuts before we suspend disbelief
The centipede is great. i love the shot with it curled up. because it slightly moves its self when crawling up...er...itself. Thats a clever Animator thinking about secondary motion.

C'mon Ted hurry up.

it's a live action and 3D composite, and as far as i've ever seen the 1stavemachine team are the best in the business at that stuff. basically they've shot a bunch of insects and then added all sorts of bits and pieces to them to make them totally bizarre and almost-but-not-quite-recognisable.

There is some exceptional tracking.
especially with some of their other work, that appears to use hand held's. Though an X/Y camera noise could also possibly be added later.

yeah, in the sixes last video, i'm guessing for the sake of simplicity it's all shot with the cameras locked down and then the handheld effect is done in post. it wouldn't make any sense to film it on a handheld and then have to deal with rotoscoping/motion tracking.
