"Melancollie" is a series of short animations, they enhance the dynamics and movements of skateboarding celebrating this ever inspiring art. 

Animography asked us to create a piece for their collection. The task was to pick a word and create a piece of animation around it. We were inspired by the skateboard scene and picked the word “Solo”. Skateboarding, like most art forms, is driven by individual vision and will, hence is a solo activity. It is at the same time contemplative and explosive, defined by a combination of skills and imagination. Based on original footage by Mike Aldape, skater Tyson Bowerbank Typeface: Indie by Oliver Dead
