From Paper Cranes to Paper…Shoes

Origami In the Pursuit of Perfection from MABONA ORIGAMI on Vimeo.

In this age of super slick 3D animated films of every talking animal imaginable (you know who i’m talking about), the traditional way of animating by hand seems all but forgotten. While the intricate nature of digitally rendered fur/feathers/water still dazzles at times, it is refreshing and inspiring to find work that utilizes a combination of the old with the new.  MABONA ORIGAMI  designed the origami models and consulted stop motion and computer animation for this beautiful, award-winning promo that tells the story of the Japanese sports brand ASICS.
