Celebrated musician Moby has just released a stunning, highly emotional new animated music video of his latest single, My Only Love, from his recently released album,
All Visible Objects. Produced by Brazilian animation studio Zombie through BlinkInk in London, the CG animated short chronicles the heartbreaking separation of a jaguar and her cub in the face of rampant deforestation of the Amazon at the hands of the meat and dairy industry. From the unusual and compelling character and forest designs to the fiery orange hued color palette, the video vividly captures the musicians emotional message about the plight of the Amazon forest, and all that lives within it.
According to Moby, It seems as if were confronted with new catastrophes on an almost daily basis, but while we deal with these horrors the climate emergency just gets worse and worse. And without the rainforests our planet will quickly become a scorching, uninhabitable wasteland. The goal of this video was to remind people of the ongoing horrors of climate emergency and deforestation, as well as reminding people that 90% of rainforest deforestation is a result of meat and dairy production.
Moby has also announced a live Twitch event taking place on August 5 at 1:00 pm PST, where he will join the videos animators and other guests to discuss the realities of deforestation and animal agriculture.
Led by Zombie director Paulo Garcia, My Only Love took a team of 90 artists 14 weeks to produce, from initial script to final delivery. Zombies production pipeline included Photoshop, Maya, Arnold, Zbrush, and Nuke.
