American singer-songwriter Ezra Furman has just shared an animation video for “Transangelic Exodus” which was directed by Beth Jeans Houghton aka Du Blonde. The excellent track comes from Ezra Furman‘s excellent seventh album which we labelled as Thunderclap: Best New Album. About the visuals, the director detailed:

[su_quote]The video is a cel animation comprising of hundreds of illustrations, each frame hand drawn. I chose to do individual watercolour paintings for the backgrounds to add more depth and life. I’ve gone through over 120 pencils and my hands have swollen to the size of pizzas.[/su_quote]
