Enterprise//Stop Motion Inspiration.



"After organizing our bookshelf almost a year ago (http://youtu.be/zhRT-PM7vpA), my wife and I (Sean Ohlenkamp) decided to take it to the next level. We spent many sleepless nights moving, stacking, and animating books at Type bookstore in Toronto (883 Queen Street West, (416) 366-8973).

Everything you see here can be purchased at Type Books."

Today, I found this amazing stop motion video online and had a great moment of inspiration for our own proposed zine and book store. Here, the owners of Toronto-based bookstore 'Type' bought their books to life with high-impact visual imagery and and playful characters. Although, of course, time will be against us in regards to creating anything even half as elaborate as this stop motion video, I could really invisage working in this style- and it truly would make a great opening to the presentation later on in the year. Definitely one to be considering.
