C’mon Tigre feat. Mick Jenkins “Underground Lovers” Music Video by Gianluigi Toccafondo (NSFW)

Italian artist/animator Gianluigi Toccafondo applies his signature paint-over-live-action technique to a music video co-directed with Marco Molinelli he admits was “inspired by science fiction cinema and Japanese erotic culture.”

Animated to the track “Underground Lovers” by C’mon Tigre feat. Mick Jenkins, the video contains over 2,300 hand-painted frames on paper with no keyframing, no filters, and no post-production.

Gianluigi Toccafondo: “[The film] has the structure of a real feature film condensed into just over four minutes. A man and a woman go through a night of excess until they lose control among food, drugs, sex, and the neon lights of Tokyo.”
