<p style="text-align:center;">Vodpod videos no longer available.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I need to get married and move to a cottage and make babies and grow old and look winsome.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://vimeo.com/877053"><span style="color:#ff6600;">&#8220;A Short Love Story In Stop Motion&#8221;</span></a> is a masterful mix of stop motion and 2D animation created by Argentinian-born, Spanish-based artist and animator <a href="http://www.carloslascano.com/carloslascano/Home.html"><span style="color:#3366ff;">Carlos Lascano</span></a>. I can&#8217;t get over the quality of light throughout. It&#8217;s thick and viscous and delicate and warm. Thought I can&#8217;t imagine how much complex work goes into making something look this easy, the result has such a natural ease. I&#8217;ve watched it 5 times now, and I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m about to stop. Pure joy.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">You can check out some very cool behind-the-scenes notes and photos from Lascano&#8217;s site <a href="http://www.carloslascano.com/carloslascano/vid_ashortlovestory.html"><span style="color:#339966;">here</span></a> and his other excellent work <a href="http://vimeo.com/carloslascano"><span style="color:#800080;">here</span></a>.</p>
