DEADLINE Post-It Stop Motion. A very creative little video by bunliu. Watch the ‘making of’ video, here. Thanks so much for sending this to me, Belén. It’s great.
“Where my idea comes from is that every time when I am busy, I feel that I am not fighting with my works, I am fighting with those post-it notes and deadlines. I manipulate the post-it notes to do pixel-like stop motion and there are some interactions between real actor and post-its.”
Okay, so this has come across my dashboard several times already, but I have just now watched it. And yes, it is fantastic, brilliant, excellent!
I think I didn’t watch it before mostly because unless I see a description that really piques my interest, it is pretty hard for me to motivate to watch videos. This post included the artist’s description of his work, and that got me interested enough to click play. There’s so much great stuff out there that it’s hard to believe that I am so lazy about checking things out.
.I love art about procrastination. Done while procrastinating. That I watch while procrastinating. Ah, wonderful. Watch this, for reals. It’s worth it (and can be viewed on mute if necessary.
My favorite part is when you can see the video itself on his computer screen, and when he’s playing that old school computer game with the post its. Oh, the simple elegance of mid-nineties ways to distract ourselves
