Skin-deep stop-motion animation imprinted on naked human bodies

To celebrate their tenth anniversary in business, creative agency DBLG decided to make an experimental animation in collaboration with London-based animation studio Animade. After the usual rounds of toing-and-froing and sending ideas back-and-forth, the two companies decided on making a stop-motion animation imprinted on the naked human body called Hey Pressto!you see what they did there?

Animade made the individual animations which were then passed onto DBLG who modeled “every frame in Cinema 4D and exported them as a physical 3D print.” Then it was a case of finding models who were willing to have the animation imprinted on their bodies. Some 270 applied, from which eight models—four men and four women—were chosen who were willing to have their butt cracks, nipples, and belly buttons filmed.

It was decided to film all the models at the same time as it took forty minutes between each shot for the mark of the imprint to disappear. But you know, no gain without pain, etc. The resulting film Hey Pressto! is certainly imaginative and quite amusing.

Made to order by Etsy seller percylau, these pieces of shrunken body-part jewelry are excellent. There’s something very David Cronenberg about them…

These are MRI cross-sections of leg muscles of an active 74-year-old vs. a sedentary 74-year-old. Wow! The active 74-year-old’s image is almost identical to the 40-year-old triathlete’s lean muscle mass! Well, if this doesn’t make you want to get to the gym, I don’t know what would.

You can read more about this study in the journal Physician and Sports Medicine.
