Aardman Animations director Darren Dubicki created this three-minute film to promote Dark Side, a new radio play from BBC Radio 2 inspired by Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon album, which celebrated its 40th anniversary this year. The piece combines CG, digital imaging, studio-based effects, and handmade elements. "What was fundamentally important to us was that we retained a consistent visual tone that echoed the imagery created over the years for the band," Dubicki said in a statement, citing the iconic album-inspired art from the late Storm Thorgerson and design firm Hipgnosis. "This tone has been consistent for decades and we wanted to honor this with our contemporary digital (and analogue) slant on the style."
