Watch: The story of life and death through a yellow yarn
‘Moving On’ is the latest stop-motion video from BAFTA-nominated Ainslie Henderson
Mumbai: ‘Moving On’ is the latest stop-motion video from BAFTA-nominated animator, writer, and director Ainslie Henderson.
According to Thisiscolossal, the four-minute clip was created as a music video for a British rock band, James and tells a story of life and death through characters, depicted with yellow yarn.
According to Ainslie, his relationship with the band dates back to 2003 and talking about how he got the idea, Ainslie says, “The story Tim (James frontman) tells me is deeply moving; one thing that stayed with me is his describing death as a birth.
Some days later, listening to ‘Moving On’, I walk past a woollen knitwear shop. My eyes flit over a ball of wool in the window while the word ‘unwinding’ is sung, that’s when the idea struck me.”
