Stopmotion We Love :: The Sandpit by Sam O’Hare
There are many reasons why we LOVE The Sandpit by Sam O’Hare. First of all, it captures our neighborhood and New York City beautifully. Secondly, he takes stop motion & the miniature “tilt-shift” look to a whole new level. Finally, the soundtrack by Human is quite perfect AND we also get to read more about his process here.
