Emmy-nominated British director/artist Em Cooper hand-animates oil paint into a surreal exploration of the space between dreaming and wakefulness for the Special Edition release of The Beatles’ “I’m Only Sleeping”.

A mix of rotoscoped archival footage and wonderfully fluid transitions, the visuals feel like a perfect match for the song originally released in the summer of 1966 on Revolver, widely regarded as one of the most technically and creatively innovative pop albums of all time.
