Our “Horse” video for the track “all night” is the other one. It was only the second real music video of any kind we’d made ourselves. Have you done much with Claymation before? The night I found that stuff I went down a 3-4 hour long rabbit hole of watching space-related stuff. They let you use it all for whatever you want, no copyright restrictions. Where did all that extra footage come from – like the rocket and space scenes? We cheated in two ways – first we used the same shots in different scenes, and second, we did a whole lot of stuff that wasn’t Claymation – the rocket take-off scene/ It goes for a long time for good reason! We actually did closer to 1000 shots I think in the end. Our video was 3 minutes long, so we technically should have done 2,700 shots. I think proper Claymation studios do about 15-18 frames per second. We’ve done that already.įor people who don’t really know anything about Claymation can you give us a bit of a rundown?Ĭlaymation is a form of animation that takes a whole lot of photos of tiny movements and pieces them together to make it look like your model is moving. Plus, it’s something different from the band playing in front of a giant fan and smoke machine in a white-walled room. Claymation is kind of the only way we could think of doing a story-telling video with no budget – I think we spent about $80 -$100 on clay. So the obvious question first, why Claymation?īecause we’re broke. We also had a chance to chat with Black Bird Hum and get a little insight into the video. The claymation video of the Last Dinosaurs track follows a hero as he grapples with the meaning of life, existence, and even religion. Now Black Bird Hum has given us the opportunity to premiere their amazing new music video for “Apollo”.
Black Bird Hum mixes in folk and synth elements to create something that is truly their own. The roots reggae fusion band hails from Sydney, Australia. The latest to perk up our ears is the band Black Bird Hum. We still are amazed at the talent that comes across our desk. Keeping our eyes and ears open for great new music is something we truly enjoy here at Indie Band Guru.
