Music Video from Israel

The music video for the song “Ma’agalim” (Circles) by the Israeli acoustic-folk-country trio Jane Bordeaux is nominated for an animago AWARD this year. The animation idea by Uri Lotan and Yoav Shtibelman visualises the lyrics extremely aptly.

The song “Ma’agalim” is about a person who only moves in circles in their life and does not make progress. The two directors were inspired by a visit to a museum with antique automatons. The team worked on the elaborate project for 5 months with Maya, V-Ray, Cinema 4D, DaVinco Resolve and Nuke.
