Heard ‘Em Say

Flight 3 contributor Bill Plympton has provided the animation for Kanye West’s latest music video, “Heard ‘Em Say,” and while it’s certainly not a match-up one would immediately think of (seeing the two of them standing side by side is bizarre to say the least), it’s remarkable how well their styles mesh together. You can now view the video online, courtesy of Roc-A-Fella: Windows Media | Real

There’s also a clip from Plympton’s latest short film, “The Fan and The Flower,” along with various other clips from his body of work on the Plymptoons Gallery page.

    Yeah, I love the toy-sounding piano in the background and Plympton’s smudgy pencil adds so much depth to the animation~!

    does anyone know how they actually made that animation (software etc…) or how i can go about finding out how they did it?

  6. Plympton vs. Gondry at male.dei Says:

    […] So, now you can compare Plympton’s version and Gondry’s version. I think it’s no match for Plympton. […]
