Office Toy Satisfies His Cabin Fever In This Animated Short by Director Tom Jenkins.
'Address Is Approximate' is a sweet little stop motion animated short made as a personal project by director Tom Jenkins. A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View.
The short was shot using a Canon 5d MkII, Dragonframe Stop Motion software and customised slider. All the screen imagery was animated - there are no screen replacements.
Music by Cinematic Orchestra. The track is Arrival of the Birds and the album can purchased on itunes here.
Produced, animated, filmed, lit, edited and graded by Tom Jenkins of The Theory
