Trembled Blossoms



Advertising Prada's Spring/Summer collection is this colorful video by James Jean. The concept is a bit silly (everything in nature metamorphosizes into a Prada product), but the art style is gorgeous. It reminds me of Okami, Prince of Persia (the new one), or even Odin Sphere. Although the girl walks a bit funny, but I guess you can kinda attribute her to having that "model" walk. The music sounds like Sigur Ros with a female vocalist, but I think it blends well with the video.

Do check out his other artwork on his website. Especially the exquisitely beautiful concept art for this video.

i think the art concept is gorgeous, but it's too bad the studio didn't quite get it to look and feel the same. c'est dommage :T

we watched that in the lab a while ago and everyone was busting on the animation, especially the part when she kneels.
