GOTYE / EYES WIDE OPEN

pictureDRIFT took up the opportunity to work with music artist Gotye once again on a video for his second album's debut single Eyes Wide Open. A huge array of image making techniques from stop motion, timelapse photography, 3D CG and 2D compositing were combined to create the journey of a tribe of earth crusted travelers, moving back through time across an ever changing and vast apocalyptic landscape, revealing the story of earth’s development and decay.
