What’s more average than 5 kids playing war? Certainly not 5 kids playing war, drug dealing, killing hostages and blowing up home. Pretending, of course. Then, add an amazing soundtrack such as The Greek from Is Tropical, realistic sound effects, cartoon animation, shake a little, and we have a 3 minute “Scarface”. Same nastiness. The minds behind all this are MEGAFORCE, rising stars of the latest underground direction (they also directed the last Madonna music video), and 7 by MACHINE MOLLE, who handled 2D animation, that, litterally, make the video. The union between these two teams of visionaires brought home the Best Animation Award from the Antville Music Video Awards and Best animation & Best indie/rock video at the Uk Video Music awards 2011. So, let’s hope they fall in love and give birth to many new videos (if I were them, I’ll stick with kids fighting and dying).
Artist: Is Tropical. Director: MEGAFORCE. Typology: 2d animation. Techniques: 2d graphics. Programs: After effects, Final cuts / Edius. What’s new: cool kids can’t die.
