Black Books, "Favorite Place"

Christophe Thockler is one talented dude. The French designer/animator is responsible for the this bit of stop-motion genius for “Favorite Place” by Austin, TX-based band Black Books. The video features “10 000 photos, 1 km of thread, 350 reels of thread, 73 000 embroidery stitches, 6 kg of fabric scraps, 100 needles and sewing pins.” From the creator:

A playful and (I hope) creative video for a powerful and melodic song by the american band Black Books. The aim was to create an energetic, fun and at the same time warm and intimate music video to illustrate the track. Cloth is very symbolic, warm, personal, and of course colorful, so, I chose to explore the world of sewing and play with material and tools.
