Milky Chance - Stolen Dance
Animated lyric video
We are very honored when asked to create a lyric video celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Sadnecessary Album, especially after our previous collaboration with Milky Chance making Fairytale animated lyric video. Stolen Dance is Milky Chance's biggest hit from their debut album.
Initially, I saw that everyone who listened to Stolen Dance actually has their own special meaning of this song, which varies for each person. To endorse the spirit of interpretation, we created the visuals to be abstract and surreal, for the audience to interpret the story by themselves. Stolen Dance would not be complete without featuring a depiction of ‘dance’. The dances are interpreted through all the visual and dynamic that intertwines along with the music.
We have been seeing this video as a way of celebration, thus we try to have fun by doing what we never tried before; like holding a small dance session which we translated into rotoscope animation in the lyric video. In the studio, we are used to creating things that are story-based, so exploring things visually was a really fun process.
Board-o-matics
My initial concept arts to give the mood and tone for the lyric video. Those concept arts are inspired by Stolen Dance's lyrics.
I created the asset and motion for the first test scene.
"Winter" world Inspired by lyrics:
"Coldest winter for me
No sun is shining anymore"
"Intergalactic Disco" world Inspired by lyrics:
"We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before"
"Paradise" world Inspired by lyrics:
"Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it"
