Ian Stevenson Stares Into Sun, Finds Enchanted Land

Today Tate Modern and London gallery Concrete Hermit debut a swell range of t-shirts, prints, and postcards featuring artwork by a talented trio of British designers and illustrators: Anthony Burrill, Andrew Rae, and Ian Stevenson. While we can’t make it across the pond to celebrate the launch of this exciting collaboration, we’ve got just the thing for your summer Friday viewing pleasure in Stevenson’s latest animated short film, “Stare Into the Sun,” which he describes as “revealing the world of a strange small man, who spends his days away from the world. While divulging in strange pleasures, he is suddenly thrown into a fantastical journey.” With a bopping cast of warped forest creatures and a color palette that recalls those of Saturday morning cartoons from the 1980s, the film has the dizzily didactic feel of Sesame Street interstitia gone off the rails. Betcha can’t play it just once.

All kinds of awesome all over the place. Them Thangs (as I understand it) is a collection of inspirational images by Justin Blyth (art director, designer, and animator). Check out both the sites and all their glory.

Post-It

Dead­line is an ambitious senior project by Bang-​yao Liu, a stu­dent at Savan­nah Col­lege of Art and Design. Liu used over 6,000 Post-It notes to complete this life size pixel animation full of finely executed iconography.

Where my idea comes from is that every time when I am busy, I feel that I am not fighting with my works, I am fighting with those post-it notes and deadline. I manipulating the post-it notes to do pixel-like stop motion and there are some interactions between real actor and post-its.
