Transformation through Meditation Stopmotion Animation: Body Painting

"Be the change you wish to see in the world..." - Mahatma Gandhi

An artistic exploration of the inner transformation process created through regular meditation. The heart gradually grows as the spirit relaxes, as you relax into your breath, let your mind go, your heart expands.... the inner key to personal growth is your personal key to the world, inner transformation opens up the world, metaphorically explored by the galaxies.

Model: Victor Santoro
Music by: Cora Flora
Art, concept, photography & stopmotion animation by: The Art of April-Anna

How did you get that guy to co-operate with the video and the painting?

@edyersh hehehehe people love what I do and normally they pay me to do what I do; however, for a personal project, there are alot of people eager to model for me. When it isn't something you do all the time, it's a special one off thing, people are patient, thankfully. Collaborations are most beneficial to complimentary fields such as acting, modeling, circus performers et cetera; so that's part of the pay-off for the model is the end result in their portfolio. It is fun despite the long hours.
