July 22, 2005Bjork: All Is Full Of Love (video)
Thought it might be about time to watch this video again. It really is an exquisitely beautiful piece of craftsmanship that seems to be holding up rather well through time...
WATCH VIDEO
Infos: Bjork's multi award winning video "All is Full of Love" was directed by Chris Cunningham who put all the digital effects work through Glassworks as he had done with his previous work with Aphex Twin. 3D artist James Mann used Avid SOFTIMAGE|3D to build movement into twin interacting androids, modelled to look like Björk. He also created robotic arms to complement live action arms that had been built for an assembly scene in the video. Pasi Johansson carried out the warping of Björk's face onto the robotic models, restoring her features to the surfaces using Discreet Logic's Flame.
Glassworks picked up the MTV 2000 Best Special Effects award for their work on the Björk video. This tops a long list of awards for the hugely successful video, which also won twice at the ITS Monitor awards (2000) as well as Best Music Video at the 1999 London Effects and Animation (LEAF) awards. The "All is Full of Love" promo also received a screening at Siggraph 1999 and was featured at the Art Futura Festival in Spain, Digital Images in Italy, the Tokyo ACM Siggraph CG Film Show in Japan, the Australian Effects and Animation Show and on Imagine TV and the Sci Fi channel in the US. Glassworks also received an award for Björk at the British Design and Art Direction Awards in 1999.
