For those of you who assumed Johnny Kelly’s incredible stop-motion animation “Back to the Start” was all CG, here is a peek behind the scenes at the painstaking work that went into animating it by hand.
I was busy all morning doing a bunch of stuff, at least I thought I was. After stumbling upon this masterpiece by Johnny Kelly I realised I hadn’t done anything and had just spent my entire morning procrastinating. Kelly created Procrastination for his MA in Animation at the Royal College of Art. This is the sort of thing you bookmark for later when you are having a creative block. If you are already wasting your day you have nothing to lose watching this little short, but I’d recommend watching it even if you have no time to spare.
I snagged a few examples of Kelly’s superb design work for you all as well!
