San Francisco based, Encylopedia Pictura, has sprung back into music-video-making action! Last month, the collective released a live-action forrest romance for Metronomy. They’ve now followed that up with an all 3D world for Panda Bear.
I loved seeing similar a visual motif expressed across two very different modes of filmmaking. As usual, Encyclopedia Pictura marries wildly imaginative vision with intricately crafted execution to produce a piece you’ll want to watch more than once.
