Animation Short – Katy Davis

After the Parsons Thesis show, I saw a lot of awe inspiring animations, namely one stood out to me because of its combination of hand-drawn elements combined with after effects technology made for a brilliant piece (suffice to say the story involved was beautiful on its own). This piece, however, is not that one (sorry to disappoint you) but one that reminds me of it. Katy Davis has a strong aesthetic style and great transitions and succeeds in combining stop motion animation with motion graphics techniques. The music is by BIM and you should check out Katie’s work at her website here.

i really appreciate commercials and airline instructions that are coming out with this type of animation. as an animator, and doing my own thesis at Parsons as an after effects piece puppeteering illustrative characters, i understand the workload that goes one in the background. on the other side, i know that it’s a magical process, tedious, but really refreshing and something that one can feel proud of doing.

i love the book-flipping! it’s a known method, but it is done differently, and the transitions are nice. :D
