The Silent Years - The Sun is Alive by Catherine Tai

For The Silent Years' new album "The Globe," the band invited other young talent to collaborate on their vision, combining sonic and visual art to create one fully realized representation of the band's concept for The Globe.

NYU animation student Catherine Tai to create a music video for "The Sun is Alive."

"When I first listened to the song - The Sun is Alive, I thought the song should be bright blue in color.
I think a lot of people have that but when I look at the sky, I can see a lot of black dots floating in the air, like some bugs. They seems have a life and tend to form some picture in my eye. This song inspired me to tell a story about a little boy having illusions with those dots.
Also, the music is very fresh and chill. It's amazing that this feeling didn't change even I have been listening for hundred times throughout the video making process,I hand drawn those characters like what I used to see in cartoons when I was small and hope to keep that freshness through images." by Catherine Tai
