This stunning image of a lone magician girl, created through stop-motion animation, is from the new video by The Shins, entitled "The Rifle's Spiral," directed by Jamie Caliri. This director has done the credit sequence for the Lemony Snicket film (very cool), and some other short form animated commercials and music videos, which you can watch on his site. His work is reminiscent of The Quay Brothers films crossed with Czech animator Jiri Trnka, with a dash of steampunk thrown in for good measure. He would be great at bringing Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus to the screen. Beautiful and unsettling work. Check out the video here.
