Well they are at it again! Almost 2 years later they have finally come out with a sequel. Way back in 2011, the strange and somewhat disturbing Muppet video
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared went viral with over 13 million views. Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling are now back at it again from
This Is It Collective with
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 2.
In this squeal it introduces a lanky character name
Tony the Talking Clock that teaches the puppets about the concept of time. This video does have its creepy parts, but I'm still a fan of the first one but don't take my word for it. Watch the video below and let me know what you think.

Steven Briand created this fantastic stop-motion video called
Protéigon, which took him two months to complete. The short involves a man, sitting in front of a desk, and he takes a piece of paper and then makes them into different shapes and patterns. I think he did a great job in working with his creativity and paper designs. Plus, it works smoothly with the music. To me it seems like they collectively are presented in a great audio-visual piece. You can check out more of his videos on

Fleet Foxes,
The Shrine/An Argument created by Sean Pecknold and his team is met with the vocal sounds of Robert Pecknold's brother. It's a wondering and amazing journey that can only be breathtaking. It's a crazy and wild story of a wondering antelope and his journey of losing life and being part of nature and the struggle of life and death. The video pulls you in with its beautiful color treatments and visual splendor.
My only advice would be what Sean and his team advised and that is to watch it in HD with headphones or speakers and in "full screen if you really want to get crazy". Enjoy!
The Carpenter is just the beginning for this series of short films regarding the art & science of professionals working with their hands. The way in which this video was shot was excellent with its use of motion tracking to point out different tools and unseen plans of the carpenter. It may be only a 1:41 but I'm impressed with his work. I took shop class and all but I couldn't do that. The most I could do was make a clock lamp.
Looking forward to seeing more video's by
Deep Green Sea.

The Flow looks at the supervening layers of reality that we can observe, from quarks to nucleons to atoms and beyond. The deeper we go into the foundations of reality the more it loses its form, eventually becoming a pure mathematical conception. Layer upon layer the flow builds new codes that create new codes, each version computing a new, more complex state based on the previous one. This short 20 second video by
MRK is not based on actual scientific data, but are visual representations of scientific theory. It gives you a look into a mathematical concept of what these layers may look like. If you want to read more about this project, they have a in-depth breakdown on
Behance.
If you found this video interesting, then you might be interested in these posters that were designed for this project as well. You can purchase these prints or others on
MRK's inPrint store.
I'm not going to lie this is a freaking weird video. It was created by
This Is It Collective, which is a site of illustrators, animators, artists and designers based in London. Their latest creation
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared is one part children's programming while the other is just plan dark and creepy. I got to give it to them though, the song is kinda of catchy, but regardless their choice of characters was pretty interesting. Check out the video below and check out more of their
work.
