Motionographer posted a piece on this amazing video (which I think was made for a Massive Attack song, though I’m not familiar with their recent work). Basically it’s an entire city, frozen in time during a moment of destruction and chaos, and the camerawork flies you through it, showing everything from a flock of birds fleeing from the top of a light pole, to tank blasts and people panicking on the streets. Really amazing work. The abstract style is really interesting as well, dropping cinematic realism for more angular, symbolic shapes and visual relationships.
