Metamutography

A claymation experiment comprised of close to 400 separate frames, each shot with a standard digital camera and combined in Flash.
At the request of many, here are a few more details:
The song is called "Keeping Up With the Kids" and can be found on the Mindless Self Indulgence album "Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy".
The project took about a week to shoot. I used a common plasticine clay found in most arts and crafts stores called Sculpey.
Most of the still frames were left completely untouched aside from a little color adjustment, but I created the vanishing effect using Photoshop by layering different shots taken at the same camera position.
And yes, that's me in the vid. I had to use the timer setting on the cam and then run around the table and sit in the chair for each shot. (Having someone to help me take the pics probably would have helped a bit.)
An alternate version of the vid with music I created myself can be seen at my website, along with all my other work: www.mileskalbach.com
If you dig it, check out my Stay Alive music video for the band Trapt which is also posted on my YouTube page and on my site. It is in the same type of style but with much more of a running narrative to it.
Thanks for checking out my work!

Pretty damn good and well done, but that music sucks wang.....lousy, competes with the nice visuals, very distracting...not everyone likes rap music, ya know
