I've directed and drawn the animated music video for "Motel Consuelo" by Ángel Stanich and Nina de Juan.
After designing both the latest EP and LP by Ángel Stanich, I was commissioned to create an animated piece out of one of the hits in the record,, Motel Consuelo.
It is a road-movie-song with references to David Lynch movies and a somehow eerie vibe to it, speaking about a place that may be either physical or ethereal.
Work process
I listened to the song many, many, many times until some images started to shape out in my head. Then I put them down into a storyboard that we discussed together with the musician.
Since we all were happy with the direction it was heading to, I started turning the storyboard panels into fully fledged illustrations for each shot, so they could be animated by the wonderful Mario Arenas.
You can take a look at the process below.
Such a joyful crazy work for a crazy song!
