I started the “Music Meets Motion” project with some students from the Institute of the Arts in California. In various short films, creative artists show funny, critical and sometimes very emotional impressions and try to bring them closer to the viewer with animations.
Of course, a good short film also needs a good soundtrack. On the following page I have selected a few films. You are also welcome to watch the soundtrack being played on the YouTube playlist.
