… by Nina Simone.

On top off being one of my favorite songs, this video is really creative!!!

The YouTube entry explains that:

“this was done for a motion graphics class in the SVA MFA Design program. The assignment was to create a music video using just type and typographic elements in black and white. The song choice was up to us.”

Found on VegBox-recipe blog. (Cool site by the way!!!)

Nrrrd Grrrl

Filed under: Weekend Adventures, dance — soleilsundance @ 5:05 pm

MC Chris was having a music video competition for his new song Nrrrd Grrrl. I was invited by my dancer friend Heide to participate in the making of one of them… how cool is that?

And so I had the privilege to be Nrrrd Dncrrr #1.

It took a Saturday afternoon (probably more for the main characters) to shoot the whole thing. They dressed me up and did my makeup. I totally felt pampered! The whole crew and process was so fun!!
