Why can’t I stop watching this video? Check it out for yourself:

Directed by Tel-Aviv born Lavie and husband and wife animators Yuval and Merav Nathan, the video for “Her Morning Elegance” is comprised of nearly 3300 still photos, all shot on a single ceiling-mounted camera. The crew reportedly spent four weeks creating a computer-generated storyboard for the video, with 3D dummies standing in for the characters. It then took two whole days of shooting with the live actors to re-create the entire three and a half minute sequence. The planning that went into this video is astounding and the execution is flawless. The scenes are so interesting, you almost forget that the song is a pretty catchy tune as well. Hear more of Lavie’s music and find out more about the video on his MySpace.
