Spike Jonze’s Handmade Stop-Motion Love Story for Bibliophiles

Mourir Auprès de Toi (To Die By Your Side) from Veronica Christina on Vimeo.

"You just start with what the feeling is. For this one the feeling definitely started with the handmade aesthetic and charm of Olympia’s work. Instantly I had the idea of doing it in a bookstore after-hours, imagining the lights coming down and these guys off their books. Me and Olympia both wanted to make a love story, and it was fun to do it with these characters. It evolved naturally and it all just started with the feeling. From there you entertain yourself with ideas that excite you.” -Spike Jonze
