Animation: 20syl “Back & Forth”




A simple but effective little animated music video for 20syl’s “Back & Forth”,directed by Thomas Porthé. I have never hear about this artist before and I could not tell how did he create this amazing music video. The bold colours he used are absolutely eye catching and cleverly sync the music with beautiful graphics. There are no curved objects in the video which makes it very robotic like computer-generated and which match the type of music. 


On his tweeter, he shows some of the design work which is incredibly amazing. I will see his style in game design or commercial for electronic equipment. The illusion cubes create can fool humans' mind hence introduce a lot of interesting effects like what is shown in the video. What is more, the way the camera is pulling backwards could make an intriguing story and allow audience to bath in the story of the illusions. I think this is an amazing technique and the style is definitely something I want to try. I am so used to telling a story by a character so maybe next time I can challenge myself by creating a non-character story and study the style of him.
