Even though its a few months old now, and fresh off her Top Album of 2019 ranking from Pitchfork, we were loving the animated music video by Art Camp for Mitski's track, "A Pearl." From the directors Saad Moosajee and Art Camp, who had the video commissioned by Spotify, "This music video was initially created on the computer using several pieces of 3D animation software. After the digital version was finalized, all 1,480 frames of the video were then individually printed using ink jet printers. Once an image was printed, it was then painted, drawn, and illustrated on top of using traditional animation techniques. Lastly, the newly illustrated frames were scanned back into the computer and sequenced into the final film."
