A kinetic typography music video for Jonathan Coulton's Shop Vac. This was created using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere and Toon Boom Animate.

I worked on this sporadically, so it's difficult to estimate how much time went into it. Somewhere between 500-1000 hours, but it was a labor of love.

Go buy the song on JoCo's website:

Enjoy!

    Thank you. I had to transcribe the music by ear. The guitarist who wrote the solo commented on Vimeo and said my interpretation was spot-on.

    This was stunningly good. I was both delighted by how rich and evocative the imagery was, and it perfectly embodied the wry humor of the song.

    The animation is so smooth, and just so spot on! And Coulton is always hilarious! Wonderful work!
