Jessie's Blog

I have decided to do a little series on this blog showing "things that I have recently discovered".

This "thing that I have recently discovered" ties in quite nicely with the stop motion filming we did on the first week of the course so I thought I'd share it with you all.


MUTO a wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

I just think this is a brilliant and mesmerising video. The sound they have chosen to put to it is interesting too. Rather than give it a full soundtrack they have just accentuated certain noises. Sometimes it fits, like when the creature comes out of the fireplace and along the floor sniffing (if you have not watched it yet maybe that last sentence will intrigue enough to do so!). Other times the sound doesn't go with the images and is uneasy and discordant. It almost makes it hard to watch but I think that is exactly what they had wanted to do.

I'm not too keen on all of Blu's murals but some are brilliant. Blu is a graffiti artist from Italy and you can access more of his work here.
