Animation: HERMÉS – Le Temps Hermés

| lucydyson

🇫🇷 LE TEMPS HERMÈS⌚️

http://time.hermes.com/

I collaborate with Hermés Paris on the 2018 campaign “Time, a Hermés object”.

I was asked to create two short animations exploring the playful concept of “Hermés time” in Honolulu, one evoking daytime and the other nighttime.

For the day animation I experimented with footage I photographed of my sister, collaging her into a surreal beach world where jellyfish float through the sky.

The moon is the main star in the night animation, diving into a psychedelic neon coral reef before bouncing back into the star-fish speckled night sky.

Here’s a short animation I created for Paul Smith, in which he discusses the influences and inspirations behind the “Dreamer” print in the AW18 collection.

✨🐸🌳🐌✨

Paul Smith is a wonderful designer and person and this was an incredibly cool commission, produced by Mark Fountain, with audio by Jamie Dodd.

“Drift away into a colourful dream world as Paul explains the influences and inspirations behind the autumn winter ‘18 ‘Dreamer’ print.”

Music Video: Cookin’ on 3 Burners feat. Emmi – Real Life Baby

Here’s my music video for “Real Life Baby” by Cookin’ on 3 Burners feat. Emmi. The video premiered on Rolling Stone Australia. 🐌 ❤️🐌 🎶🐌 👉When my sister Marita and I were young girls we formed a snail club, I was thinking about this while I was making this animation, along with that summer feeling of share-house parties and not being bothered by the aftermath because everyone had such a good time…even the snails 🐌 ❤️🐌 🎶🐌 😄

Music Video: The Orbweavers – Radium Girls

| lucydyson

The Orbweavers wrote this beautiful and haunting song about the Radium Girls, and I created this animation for it. Radium Girls is from The Orbweaver’s second album Deep Leads, out on Mistletone Records.

To quote from The Orbweavers’ facebook page: “Today we release the video for Radium Girls, directed and created by Marita’s sister Lucy Dyson, artist, animator and music video director based in Berlin. We told her the story of girls working in the radium dial painting factories, and she came up with this moving response.”

Music Video: Les Hommes – Queen Fez

Here is an animation I recently made for London based jazz exotica trio Les Hommes.

“Queen Fez” was nominated in the “Best Experimental” category of the 2017 Berlin Music Video Awards.

Rory More of Les Hommes describes the song as “a heady dose of gritty oganatronic mondorama with touches of Shearing-meets-Monk on a pub piano.” The song was recorded live at Bark Studio and will be available from April 7th on their new LP “The Sinner”

I really loved creating this weird-world eggimation, especially the pool party and keyboard scallop scenes…and the mini golf egghead scene, and the flippity-floppity fish dish…it has it all. Thanks for the inspiration Queen Fez and Les Hommes!
