Long Gone – Music Video Created Using 45,000 Photographs

The  music video for the band Fat City Reprise’s song ‘Long Gone’ was created using thousands of still photographs.

The brilliant video was conceptualized and directed by Cesar Kuriyama, a New York based animator, who took 14 months to create the video. His director of photography took 45,000 photographs with a Nikon D200 DSLR camera, which were then later stitched together to create the effect of motion film.

Like most people, you will either love the music, or just hate it.

Watch the video after the jump.
