The making of the video
The making of the video for “Dragon” was a lengthy and complicated process, but the end result was worth it. The video is a mix of traditional hand-drawn animation and computer-generated imagery, and it took a team of animators, designers, and musicians to bring it to life.
The video starts with a live-action scene of the band performing in a studio, which was then rotoscoped and animated over the course of several months. The majority of the video, however, is set in an animated world that was entirely created in CG.
The visuals were inspired by a variety of sources, including early stop-motion animations, ’60s psychedelia, and Japanese anime. The team used After Effects and Maya to create the animation, and the final video is a seamless blend of live-action footage and CGI.
The end result is an otherworldly music video that perfectly compliments Dragon’s unique sound. It’s a truly innovative piece of work, and we’re proud to have been a part of it.
The story behind the video
The story behind the animated music video for Dragon’s song “Radioactive” is that the band was touring in Japan when they were caught in a typhoon. They were stranded on an island with no food or water, and the only thing that kept them alive was a radio that they found. The radio was their only connection to the outside world, and it became their lifeline. The video tells the story of their time on the island, and how the radio helped them survive.
The animation process
The music video for Dragon’s song “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” was created by animation studio Starburns Industries. The studio is known for its work on the Adult Swim show “Rick and Morty.”
The video was written and directed by Steve Wolfhard, who also worked on “Adventure Time” and “Over the Garden Wall.” The stop-motion animation was done by a team of 15 animators, who worked for four months to create the video.
The video follows a young girl who is transported into a fantasy world where she must battle a dragon. Wolfhard said that he wanted to make a fantasy story that had never been told before.
“I got to make something that felt like it existed in its own world, with its own mythology and characters that I hope people will want to revisit again and again,” he said.
