The video created by Sean Ohlenkamp, displays a perfect book heaven, set in a Toronto book store. This creative piece highlights the vibrancy and life of the printed word and generates a sense of nostalgia for the bookshop experience. Sean Ohlenkamp shares the booklovers dream of displaying books efficiently and creatively into well organised bookshelves via some clever animation. The books are brought to life using perfect motion, making the moving colours a highly attractive visual experience. The book store’s aesthetically pleasing environment together with the animation emphasises the value in the proper placement of books. The video’s animation is perfectly complimented by using music by Grayson Matthews which generates excitement in the viewer.
