Animated music videos

Peter, Bjorn and Peter - Young Folks


Here is a music video that makes use of a combination of rotoscoping and cut-out animation. It's a simple but effective style of animation that takes this catchy song and turns it into a story about the care free journey the band went on to create the song. This is a nice example of how you can enhance a song with characters and narrative.

A example of an artist/music collective that are well known for using characters and narrative to create a music-animation relationship that works well together is Gorillaz.

On Melancholy Hill


They often experiment with a combination of techniques and treatments to create an interesting and original look to their videos. They mostly use a mixture of 3D CGI, Traditional 2D animation and live action.

I'm really interested by animation created for use with music as it's a brilliant middle-ground between the commercial and experimental sides of animation.
