Put on your headphones for this next one – it’s a music video by Paf Paf, a team of 5 CGI designer/animators from across France. They are Corentin Bachelet, Gilles Cortella, Augustin Clermont, Adrien Jalade and Juliette Grandjonc, many of whom are attending Gobelins in Paris. The track is from the Canadian band Misteur Valaire. Très Magnifique!

The heartbreaking, traditionally-animated piece was produced in conjunction with WIZZprod°. You’ll also see the inclusion of some photographic elements, visually splitting the worlds of good vs evil.
Remember The Night We Were Kings? Well you can’t, cuz it’s brand new.
