Funny Quirky Video: The Busy Desk of the Animator

From Denny: If you have ever wondered exactly how the animators do it this tutorial is for you! :) Entertaining and delightful while it explains the world of illusion.

From the creators of this video:

A neat making-of video to explain the trickery behind the interactive video exhibit, DanseDance.

Each day, we are surrounded by seemingly insignificant objects, taking them from one place to the other, or leaving them on a table for weeks, without paying any attention to them. We ignore or forget them, using things only when we need to, making sure they don’t interfere or inhabit our space. But what if they were not so stable and subservient? What if they could swivel, bounce or even fly. And what if they did so all at the same time?

This experiment is about re-discovering our daily surroundings.
