With this great example of analog motion the Langara College showed their “tips for better ideas” in an inventive and creative way. Instead of literally illustrating them, they found a mixture of different techniques for the visualization. In addition to papercrafted collages there is also a use of light and shadow, accordion folding, black light, and many other devices which work well in the context of the sketchbook format. An elaborate, funny, and often surprising piece.

This gory and slightly naughty piece uses a very nice combination of flip-book style page turning and stop motion to keep us fascinated with the motion. Yet like many animated shorts the sound design creates an added emotional depth which makes the piece. Thanks to Annika Bauer for the link.
