Friday Fun: Joy Division as Playmobil
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater February 11th, 2011

We've all seen various events, musical or otherwise, enacted out with LEGO bricks and characters. My favourite ones are the cricket ones or perhaps the videos of Chris Salt. But Playmobil is not something you see used very often, although it has been used for this live performance of Joy Division's transmission. Wonderful stuff. Full credit to this person, too who says that it was their first attempt to create a stop motion film. Mission accomplished, I think.

Next week? David Bowie's 'China Girl' video recreated with Sticklebricks.
