“Der Gemütszustand von Trollen schwankt zwischen machtvollen Omnipotenz-Gedanken und depressiver Weinerlichkeit. Psychologen führen dies auf die ungewöhnliche Körpergröße von Trollen zurück: Manche messen nur 50 Zentimeter, andere sind so hoch wie Berge. Der Troll empfindet sich deshalb als maßlos. Er leidet darunter, ein Freak zu sein. Nur das Netz ermöglicht ihm ein ungehindertes Ausleben seiner Gefühle.”
This is a video that is made from over 400 images that I created from 2003-2009. Bits and pieces from commercial, rejected and personal projects. I had been collecting all those images to use in a completely different project, but then discovered that they could look great in animation too. After painful days in After Effects, fighting with all those 400 layers (and nearly killing my computer), the video was complete.
My friend and fellow student Daniel, who is also an exclusive member of Acid Kids, did this great live-set in New York City. You can download it for free here (56,9 MB).

“Remember the golden rule? Treat other people the way you’d like to be treated? Forget it. It doesn’t apply anymore, if it ever did. Try this new rule instead: Treat other people the way they’d like to be treated.”
