Shynola

Shynola is the collective name of a group of four visual artists based in London and ave done videos for 2 of my favourite bands RadioHead and UNKLE. I really like it as the work they do although it looks amazing it seems like I could be capable which keeps me interested in them. you can also tell they are really into illustration as a lot of there work is really illustrative and looks hand crafted which is a style that I really like when done so well

Pyramid Song


The video for "Pyramid Song", directed by collective Shynola, features a combination of computer 3D and hand-drawn animation and was based on a dream that lead singer Thom Yorke once had. What I really like about this video is the colours and the dream like atmosphere created. It also gave me ideas for using clouds with antennas or something similar for my own rhythm brief as i like the straight mechanical objects silhouette against the softness of the clouds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqP0WNpojFM
