SANKE AND JET VISUALS: COSMIC ZOOM

Visuals to Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band

For some of Snake And Jet’s live performance’s I have made visuals. This movie shows some of the clips I have used. The first part I have made together with Emil Alsbo and the other part was originally made for their performance at the music festival Blomst and is all made with only one key element their logo.

Since this is visuals and not a music video it perhaps can get a little bit monoton to look at. But check it out …anyway the music is good. “Riot” by Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band.

PART TIME ANY TIME

Music video for Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band and the video project 13 Bullits

As a part of the project 13 Bullits 16 different visual artists was asked to make a music video for a track from the album “Some One Will Dig This” by Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band.

This is my contribution for the 13 Bullits project.

It is partly animated by hand and in After Effects. I also experimented a little bit with puppets on strings.

You can see all of the videos made for 13 Bullits HERE.

SNAKE AND JETS: 10 CITIES BEYOND

Unfinished music video for Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band

This is a project I started up but never really finished. It should have been a video for “10 Cities beyond” by Snake And Jet’s Amazing Bullit Band.

The first part of it is almost finished but then it turns into an animatic.

The idea of the video was to tell a story by combining a lot of different animation techniques with realtime footage that eventually should make it easier to do a 6 minutes animation video. Guess I proved myself wrong on that idea…

Anyway.. There are some good parts in it so check it out.

LAKE PLACID: THIS AIR

Music video for the Danish inde-band Lake Placid

I made this video for Lake Placid to the number “This Air”

It’s a partly animated video based on the graphic art work for the cover to their debut album “Make More Friends” which I have also made ..the cover that is.

If you take a closer look at the inder-sleeve to the album you will find many of the elements that are also represented in the video. It was meant to be kind of a walk through the albums universe with a little sugar sweet story on top.

2600 BRØNDY STRAND

Alternative music video to promote the suburban area of Brøndby Strand

This is actually an old school project about how to change the perception of a suburban area with a bad rep.
In this case “Brøndby Strand” south of Copenhagen.

We thought it had some overlooked positive aspects that we would like to show through this video.

All the sound is made of samples recorded in the area and made into music by Thomas Frederiksen and myself. The characters in the video are based on the persons we interviewed. Thomas did the drawing I did the animation.

ANIMATION LOOP

A monkey on the loose

This is a small animation test I made for another project. Frame by frame the boring life of a monkey is portrayed in 12 drawings.

RACER

Gone in 60 seconds

Small action packed animated road movie I made together with Stefan Mylleager and Emil Alsbo.

Made in one day to celebrate the finals of a two week animation course.

All sounds and music are live recorded with a little help from Emils ring tone a CD cover …and 3 white editions of Michael Winslow.

ELKA 8: Alle Har En Plan

Low-Fi Super8 music video for danish Elka8

This is one of the first music videos I made. To the music of low-fi wonder Elka8 and the track “Alle Har En Plan” the video was filmed over a couple of days on a trip to Berlin.

We only had one 3 minute role of super 8 film for this 3.12 minutes track. A very tight and detailed plan was figured out to make this pixilation video work.
