Pastilla collaborated with mixed media animation studio Awesome+Modest to produce the first music video for Miike Snow’s “Animal.” The band wanted a purely graphic representation of their music in lieu of being featured in the video themselves. Together, Awesome+Modest and Pastilla produced a three-minute, thirty-second music video featuring an endearing, microscopic world with a series of quirky microbes dancing and pulsing in time with the music. Orchestrating microbes to create synchronized patterns was an interesting creative challenge, and Pastilla and Awesome+Modest were up to the task.
