Lovers of stop-motion animation, please raise your hands.

Well, when those two things combine in one video, I suppose this is one of my favorites of the year so far. Created using the massive card catalog at Yale University’s Sterling Memorial Library, this video does it right – building to a big finish.

Super coolio . . .
Agreed.
Wow -loved this. I worked at Sterling in the late 1970’s in the interlibrary loan department and used that very catalog. That was the most fun job I ever had.
This was great! I did a Video Production course in Massachusetts, and this type of video was my first project. Thanks for sharing this.
