Enemigos – Animated Music Video – Aitana y Reik
Aitana, the heroine who save the music
At Alkimia Animation Studio we were contacted by the production company Antiestático to script, animate and direct “Enemigos”, an 2d animated music video for the singer Aitana and Reik.
For our studio, it has been a pleasure and a great experience to carry out this great audiovisual project. A full frame animation music video set in a world of magical realism.
The realization of this project has been possible thanks to the collaboration of many talented people.
Among these people is Laia Lopez (It’s López), an artist we deeply admire and who has also designed the main characters of the video clip.
Starting from the premise of representing the Spanish artist Aitana as a heroine, we began to shape the idea and script of this 2D animation music video clip.
In this clip, the group Reik will ask Aitana for help, a brave heroine of music who will save the planet from a common enemy: Silence.
Enemigos by Aitana y Reik, animated music video
Thanks to the inspiration of the theme “Enemigos” and the characters designed by Laia (It’s López), we were giving shape to the idea through an animatic.
The rhythms of the music and the acting of the characters had to fit perfectly to convey the force of the story that we wanted to convey.
Finally, we began to bring these characters to life through 2D animation, with an animation style inspired by anime.
It is an animation with a Japanese influence but with brushstrokes reminiscent of the European comic style.
And the result of all is a short but exciting story in which the music, animation and effects complement and accompany each other to make the viewer vibrate.
