synopsis
The morning after the night before: two flat mates awake hung-over to review their antics of the previous evening recorded on their computer. Complete with Alka-Seltzer in hand, the evidence of their night dances around them. Having watched themselves become progressively more intoxicated whilst striking-a-pose for their computer, the inevitably now dishevelled looking flat mates return to their separate rooms to catch up with some much needed beauty sleep.
short fact
"The video was inspired by my own narcissistic use of Apple Mac's program 'Photo Booth'. The song 'Passion is accurate' has a very clear and defined beat that is mechanical and sexual, and I felt begged for staggered and jerky movements. Using stop frame animation and photography enhances this by accounting for every beat, making the song's beat the main driving force behind the video."

This is very good indeed. Certainly the best film I have seen on this site. The only pity is that the distorted soundtrack makes painful listening, seemingly recorded through a cheap computer microphone.

Amazing! How was this achieved? The fashion puppets were awesome, their faces almost looked real, really makes you think about the emptiness of modern culture. Clever. How did they get the cigarette to move to a completely different side of the tray? I cannot believe this cost nothing.

Really cleverly made, especially seeing as it took no money to make. Absolutely loved it.
