Nokia 'Dot'

Uploaded by YouTuber aardmancommercials

Uploaded on Sep 16, 2010

W+K and Aardman Animations broke a Guinness World Record for 'smallest stop-motion animation character in a film' with 'Dot'.
Shot entirely on the Nokia N8, the film showcases the smartphone's 12 megapixel photography capabilities and also celebrates the CellScope, an invetion created by Professor Daniel Fletcher. The CellScope is a microscopic device attached to a Nokia handset, which the Professor used to produce life-saving technology: with his invention he has helped diagnose fatal diseases in remote areas in third world countires.
The N8 campaign brings these types of amazing, authentic uses of technology to life.

Director: Sumo Science
Client: Nokia
Agency: Wieden & Kennedy
Professor Fletcher's invention of the CellScope, which is a Nokia device with a microscope attachment, was the inspiration for a teeny-tiny film created by Sumo Science at Aardman. It stars a 9mm girl called Dot as she struggles through a microscopic world. All the minuscule detail was shot using CellScope technology and a Nokia N8, with its 12 megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss optics.

Uploaded by LiberationMusicAus

Uploaded on Nov 7, 2010

After 3 months in making, Bliss N Eso return with the highly anticipated clip for Addicted! The moving graffiti in the clip is animated entirely in stop motion using over 2,200 photos. 

The clip was shot in a warehouse in West Auckland (NZ) which was previously the headquarters for bikie crew "Headhunters". It features artwork from world-famous graff writers Askew One and Deus, who spent 6 days straight working their way around the warehouse and used over 300 cans of paint.

A big shout out to the Fish n Clips crew who helped make this concept come to reality. Addicted was directed by James Solomon and shot by Marty Williams with help from Dan Monaham and Clint, and was produced by Sam Momeny and Jessie Gurunathan. Post by Nathan Pickles and Mike Robinson.

Food Fight

Uploaded on Feb 27, 2008

An abridged history of American-centric warfare, from WWII to present day, told through the foods of the countries in conflict.

For the official cheat sheet (breakdown of the foodstuffs), visit:
http://www.touristpictures.com/foodfi...

Now, to answer some FAQs...
- The food in this film was consumed either by myself or my dog after shooting. None of the cast went to waste.
- The software used was photoshop and after effects.
- The film took me 3 months to do.
- Although it seems like stop motion, most of it was stop motion created within After effects, using keyframe animation. I am basically moving the food around within the the program, frame by frame, which is the same as traditional stop motion, only it's digital
