Moving On - a woolly music video

 ECA (Edinburgh College of Art) has been my daughter's 'home' for the last four years where she has been encouraged and nurtured as a film maker. One of ECA's former students, Ainslie Henderson, is a BAFTA winning animator and he has recently produced an animated music video for one of my favourite bands, James, and it is all made of wool! It is a beautiful piece of animation that leaves you close to tears and the fragility of the wool fibres seem to echo the same fragility of life. Ainslie has also captured some wonderful footage of the wool fibres as they unravel. The song is obviously marvellous as its James, but do take a look and a listen and see what you think.
