The Swoons
Conspiracy of Silence

Director/Animator: Tim Fox

An animated exploration into the world of apathy, a music video for new band, The Swoons. What happens when you sit on your arse and do nothing while the world falls apart around you?

I used several different animation and motion design styles to create this from 2D stop motion to 3D CGI builds. On a tight budget and with the bands limited availability, animation was the best route to take. They allowed me to explore and experiment which I am grateful for, however I will think twice before I promise hand drawn stop motion again. My wrist is still sore! My sanity will never be the same again!
