Identify - Pixilation - Her Morning Elegance

I really fell in love with this music video animation. The concept and story play beautifully with the music creating a harmonious and tranquil essence. The actress is Shir Shomron, the song is by Oren Lavie, her Morning Elegance directed by Oren Lavie and produced by Michal Dayan.



Here are a few scenes I really love about this animation:


Beautiful and elegant woman with curly red hair and soft pale skin takes a stroll along her bed, walking pasts pillow clouds. She hears a Bass and watches it float past her head. I love this scene because it's as we are experiencing a dream with her. Perhaps she is asleep in her bed listening to this song on the radio. When she heard a the base, she imagines it flying past her above her head.


This is simply magical. The beautiful woman looks out the window of a train. There is lightning and wind as well as motion forward evidenced by her hair flying to the right side with some elevation. The illusion is created by strategically placed sheets and a focused cool toned light. This scene in particular is very interesting because it is so different from every other shot; we get the impression that she is in a completely different setting almost to a point where we forget that she was in her bed and that there was sunlight pouring through the window.


The beautiful woman dives into an ocean. Another scene that completely changes simply by introducing a dark blue bed sheet and some socks of various sizes. The actresses movement in this is scene is particularly elegant. Although, you have to remember that every tiny motion had already been scripted and even choreographed. Her body was being placed into those elegant movements and positions. 


A fish-sock interacts with the beautiful woman. This is a wonderfully tender moment as we see the little piece of garment come to life and warm our hearts by carefully and lovingly embracing the woman and swimming through her hair.

Here is a quick video showing the process and collaboration it took from a team of creatives to choreograph and carefully animate a magical music video.
