V is for (Creative) Videos

Happy Thursday! Can you believe we have only four more letters to go in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge? ☺

My inspiration today comes from the interesting and innovative videos I find on YouTube. I'd like to feature two of my favorites today. I've posted both of them in the past year or so, but I think they're exceptional and definitely worth posting again! I hope you enjoy them.

The first video comes from UK-based filmmakers Luke White and Remi Weekes. Known as Tell No One, the duo posts videos of their experiments with in-motion sculpture and other video techniques. You can see more examples of their work at their Web site, found here.



I'm absolutely in love with this second video, which was filmed for A Fine Frenzy's "Sleepwalking." It's done using stop-motion techniques, and I think it's creative and magical and beautifully done. ☺


Lyrics here.

My daily haiku is now up at the Pulitzer Remix site. You can find it here. A big thanks to those of you who are reading and commenting. I appreciate your support!


Wishing you all a magical Thursday. ☺

    Your right about neary there, I'm done apart from Y & Z. Z might cause a problem with a picture, it might just end up with a Zebedee spring.
