BIG BANG BIG BOOM - Blu

BIG BANG BIG BOOM - the new wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

Big bang big boom along with a few of Blu's other animations, and graffiti work is one of my favourite animations at the moment. One of the main reasons is probably because of the time put into it and the vast use of medias and techniques mixing stop motion with pixilation. The animation travels through a very urban environment using a mixture of spray paint and found materials to create the stop motion and movement, constantly changing in scale throughout. Blu is an a graffiti artist and animator who likes to let his work speak its self. Some pieces seem to have very little meaning where as pieces like this seem to have more to it about how beautiful the creation of it all may have been and how in a short time we are already destroying our own planet.

The sound without this animation is also beautifully composed for the video, helping emphasise the characters, movements and actions within the animation. building it up, going hand in hand with his work.
