Around the world in 5 minutes – Kien Lam

This video gives a whistle-stop tour around the world – a condensed version of artist and photographer Kien Lam‘s year-long trip around the globe. With his camera in hand the artist captured over 6,000 photographs that combine to make this short film.

To give a present – Yo Gabba Gabba

Everyone should watch this stop-motion video. It was made by US animator-director Kirsten Lepore for the Christmas special of Nickelodeon Junior’s kid’s show Yo Gabba Gabba. And while you’re at it, watch the rest of her films here. You won’t regret it!

Enjoy giving presents!

soundlapse – fruit bonus

Filmmaking duo Fruit Bonus came up with this rather catchy video knitted together by everyday sounds. Entitled Soundlapse, it was directed by Mark Pallman and Amanda Speva, and sound edited by Erik Rasmussen. I’ll never look at a desk phone in the same way. Awesome.

Via Illusion.
