The Fiery Furnaces - The End Is Near - stop motion music video by Ian Cinco

I made this stop motion music video for the WNYC Soundcheck Video Contest in August 2009. It took exactly 1 month to complete it (August 1st to August 31st). Storyboarding was done on the subway to and from work. All clock construction and animation was done on nights and weekends.

Special thanks to Elizabeth Hanley, Victor Paredes and Matthew Sablan.
Very Special thanks to Tiffany Navarro for all her unending help during the making of.

Shot for shot with a Canon PowerShot, except for 2 live action shots done with a Panasonic DVX

this is so well done. the motions are so fluid, and coordinate with the music so well. my favorite part is when you show the back as it's looking out the window, that curved slit on most clocks like that does a perfect sad face for the moment! well done MrIanCinco!
