ID2: A stopmotion using Yarn

YouTube Preview Image

The project that cell phone application company, Gravity Mobile, presented to Tony Benna and Adam Avilla allowed all the creative freedom that the team desired, thus causing a massive creative explosion. That explosion spawned a notion to animate one of the most unruly mediums known to man: Yarn, which has a similar controllability to boiled spaghetti.

With a box of yarn, some black foam core, and a glue gun the two got to work. They rigorously trained the yarn to be more obedient to their wishes and whims.  After two cold months in a dark warehouse bedroom, which they transformed into a shooting stage, they still had not mastered the ungovernable medium, but they had learned to embrace its dubious nature.
