Shynola directs Coldplay
Posted by Eliza Williams, 21 July 2009, 9:57 Permalink Comments (4)
Shynola has directed this super charming video for Coldplay's rather blah new single, Strawberry Swing. Interestingly, like Jonathan Glazer's recent Dead Weathers video, the Coldplay vid has been promoted via a trailer on YouTube (shown above), but can be seen in full on Babelgum.com now, and will also play out in UK Odeon cinemas from later this week, before both Bruno and The Proposal. Music videos on the big screen... could this be the future?

this is brilliant! i even kept the sound on, wasn't so bad. i'd love to see music videos in the cinema!! rather than trailors for 'american pie 6' etc. great concept all round.

Wasn't Neil Buchanan doing this kind of stuff on Art Attack years ago?

It's good, however towards the beginning you can see the evidence where they have rubbed out the previous frame's chalk drawing. But later on in the film, the background/floor looks just too clean to think that they actually drew and rubbed out every frame. I hope they didn't get bored and start animating digitally.
