Thunder & Lighting / Lanterns is a double music video and the last of the 3 animations I made for Passenger's album The Boy Who Cried Wolf (click to see The Boy Who Cried Wolf and Simple Song). We decided to set in Mousehole, a fishing village in Cornwall famous for its harbour Christmas lights. I went down for a few days to do some drawings.

Here are some of my drawings and photos from the process of making the video:
