OK Go The Writing’s on The Wall

Posted in: Animation

OK Go’s music video for “The Writing’s On The Wall” has won the Best Visual Effects award at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. Brooklyn-based production company 1stAveMachine and their experimental agency division SpecialGuest collaborated with OK Go members to create a one-take film focused on optical illusions. Drawing inspiration from artists like Georges Rousse and Felice Varini a large team in a Brooklyn warehouse used real time objects to create 4 minutes of fascination and pleasure.
