כשפונים אליך מהדג נחש ורוצים שתעשה להם קליפ, אתה לא מסרב. וכשפונים אליך לעשות קליפ לשיר שהוא מספר אחד במצעד הישראלי, אתה לא מסרב. אז בטח לא כששני הדברים האלה קורים ביחד. החבר’ה של הדג פנו אליי בעקבות המיני קליפ שעשיתי ל”כל החתיכים אצלי” לשיר מתישהו. הם ראו את הקליפ הטיפוגרפי… ורצו אחד כזה לעצמם. ותכל’ס, לא לכל להקה קליפ טיפוגרפי יכול להתאים. הדג נחש זו אחת הלהקות שזה כן. אז די מהר הצעתי ליוני זפרני לעשות איתי ביחד את הקליפ, וששנינו ביחד נצליח להוציא משחקים טיפוגרפיים מספיק מגוונים כדי שהקליפ לא ישעמם לרגע. כבר שיתפתי פעולה עם יוני בכל מיני פרוייקטים, עוד כשלמדנו יחד בשנקר וגם אחר כך

אז אלו היו שבועיים של עבודה עבודה עבודה, והשיר היה תקוע לנו באוזניים כל הזמן. מצאתי את עצמי תקוע באיילון בפקק ומשום מקום מתחיל לצעוק “בנאדם למה זה ליבך כמו קרח??”, מקווה שהנהגים לצידי לא מסתכלים עליי בעין מוזרה. בסוף יצאה תוצאה מגניבה, והאמת היא ששיא הריגוש יהיה כשאני אפתח 24 ופתאום אראה את השם שלי ככה על הקרדיט. קצת ילדותי, אבל נו, זה די מגניב אותי

אגב, אם בא לכם לראות רק משהו אחד מהדברים שיוני עושה, זה ה-דבר: משיבון

I’m working now, full time job, at Points of You as a… creative content man, I guess. in a few words, Points of You is a very creative self development company. Our main tool is The Coaching Game – a board game with cards, that confront you to look at your life in different points of view…
I made this interactive video that was sent in our last newsletter. It simulates one aspect of the game. Picking a card, and look at an aspect of your life through a random topic..
This video uses the annotations feature to move from video to another. At the third step you can pick a random video for inspiration, from a list of videos I liked on YouTube…

This video is a first-time for me in many ways. The first time I’ve experimented pixilation. The first time I did a stop-motion animation that was longer than a few seconds. The first time I did a project and really felt like a director, directing other people. I can go on and on. I watch this, I can see a lot of bumps and things I could have done better, but it makes me proud, I must say. I have things that are more “perfect”, but I really like this small video because it made me experiment in a lot of new stuff, and I feel it’s a big step farward for me.

Anyway, thanks for Aya Zahavi Feiglin (That also have a blog with her band that I built and manage) for laying down in some fhilty spaces, and didn’t complain.
Another big thanks goes to  Hilit Rozental, a very talented musician and a very cool girl, for the beautifull song on the background.
Gilad Tasa and Nir Yemini, two great friends, helped moving some stuff, Shirly Kattash and Rotem Smolsky helped me with shooting.

These frames are taken from a stop-motion animation I’m working on now. I hope I’ll finish it soon, and than I will upload it, and write about tha making of the video. It was’nt easy…
Anyway, the girl in the photo is Aya Zahavi Feiglin, the lead singer of the band I Got The Hotties.

Update: Wath the final result here – http://gidivigo.com/hamelin

This video is a small experiment: all the images were taken from google images results for the word “moon”.

Have you ever noticed all the small lights in your room when it’s dark? The red one from your TV, the Num Lock from your keyboard, etc.. This “underwater” world is made out of these small lights of my room.

Once again, for the 3rd time, I’m participating in the Five Second Project of GSG – a weekly based theme blog activity, which all of its purpose is to create something cool and expiriment techniques. This week theme is Circle vs. Square, and this is what I came up with.
Visit the Vimeo chanel to see what other people did.

It’s the second time I’m doing a small video for the Five Seconds Project of the GREYSCALEGORILLA’s blog. This week the theme is balloons in black and white. Last week it was coffee and triangles.

The 11 Second Club is a monthly character animation competition open to everyone.
They post a sound file (duration:11 sec.), and the goal is to create a short animation, using only the sound provided by the site.
I took the time today, to make a small something of my own.

Every second week the blog GRAYSCALEGORILLA is asking his readers
to participate in a cool assignment: making a very short video in a chosen theme.
This week theme is Coffee and Triangles. This video is what I made in the past hour.
Last project theme was Orange.
