Childish Gambino Animated Music Video!

Recently I’ve been really interested in how animation is coming into our popular culture but more importantly how celebrities and artists interact with it. Childish Gambino (AKA Donald Glover) recently released a totally animated music video for his song, “Feels Like Summer”. On Instagram he completely credited the artist for his work. I think this may begin a new genre of animated music videos. This opens up a new door for animators to start working in the music business and not only the film business. It’s done in drawing animation with a limited color palette of reds and oranges and a cartoon TV-like feel. I personally love the video and think it portrays the ideas of summertime better than a live action video would have done, the animation makes me feel more nostalgic. Definitely watch the video if you have a minute!
