Stop Motion: Coldplay’s New “Strawberry Swing” Smells Like “Sorry I’m Late”, “Her Morning Elegance” and “Fly Guy” Refried


One part: Oren Lavie “Her Morning Elegance”

Two parts: Tornas Mankovsky “Sorry I’m Late”

FlyGuy

Add a whiff of Trevor Van Meter “Fly Guy”

Put ’em all together and you’ve got Coldplay “Strawberry Swing”. Maybe I’m stop-motion jaded. Or maybe I’m Coldplay-jaded. 

Meh.

  1. Yes this type of stop motion has been done before..but then the examples you have given “excluding they Coldplay video” are also derivative of many other stop motion animations of this style in the last 10 years…

  2. Totally. But they all seem to add a little something new to their inspiration. Except the Coldplay vid, which seemed to just merely combine inspirations and call it day.
