Paper-Cut Stop Motion Animation Inspo

Anyone who really knows me knows I am a book fanatic and I love to write. In fact, at this moment I am drowning in books on my side of the bed and have to walk over stacks and piles that block my path. I would say my weekly shopping addiction is in the form of books and magazines (and why yes the kindle and nook would solve some of the obvious three-dimensional problems and I might one day look into them) I love the feel, smell and handling of a physical book in my hands.

Anyway, I digress. I live with the dichotomy of creating visually artistic work when I'm not writing and writing when I not creating visual art...and you all know I love me some stop-motion!

I bring all of this up, because The New Zealand Book Council has cleverly brought the two together with this phenomenal and very inspiring little ditty- if you have 2 minutes and 11 seconds you need to treat yourself to this:

Produced by Colenso BBDO
Animated by Andersen M Studio

One day I will finish my hub and I's stop-motion...one day...

This is amazing! So much detail has gone into each individual piece, I really wish that one day I could make something as amazing as this!

oh my god, you have to realize the effect this had on my heart. this is so unbelievable, it made me start panicking. Everything's so tiny and perfect.

This is the stop motion i was trying to see if it was that i mentioned in printmaking. this one's really good too.

Absolutely amazing! I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work it took to put that together.
