The White Stripes - Fell In Love With A Girl - music video by Michel Gondry
“The video was shot on a Bolex with real Lego pieces. First I shot the basic rock video with a little video camera, just getting the band on blue screen, walking around and jumping in water and swimming,” says Gondry.
In the edit suite, Gondry had the negs treated with a program that would, when prints were produced at low resolution, lend Lego-like shapes to enlarged pixels. Each frame was then printed out at large size on paper. Gondry and a team of punk rock Lego animators then assembled each frame from Lego and shot it with a 16mm Bolex camera. Various crisper scenes, such as close-ups of the band members’ faces were built with twice as many Lego blocks to provide high resolution.
