In this video, animation director Raman Djafari dives deep into their career creating visually stunning music videos for some of the biggest names in the industry, including Coldplay, Dua Lipa, and Ashnikko. We'll explore their artistic journey, how they developed their signature style, and the truth behind working in the animation and music video industries. From their early influences to collaborating with major artists, Djafari sheds light on what it takes to thrive as an animation director in today's fast-paced creative world.
In particular, we'll break down the creative process behind the visually striking "Worms" music video by Ashnikko. This video, which is a mix of live-action and 3D animation created using Blender, exemplifies Djafari’s talent for blending the surreal with the real. We’ll look at how the 3D environments and characters were crafted in Blender to enhance Ashnikko's chaotic, rebellious persona, and how live-action footage was integrated seamlessly to create an otherworldly narrative.
Raman Djafari is an illustrator, animator and filmmaker working in both 2D and 3D, currently living in Berlin, Germany. Through colorful imagery and fragmented narratives they are hoping to reach into a realm of honest emotionality and willful fragility, creating surreal worlds and characters that oscillate between the familiar and the fantastical.
