Sigur Rós 'Heima'
go get a free download of an unreleased clip from 'heima', go to http://www.sigurros.com
'heima' is sigur rós's first ever film, filmed over two weeks during the summer of 2006 when the band undertook a series of free, unannounced concerts in iceland. they hauled 40-plus people round 15 locations to the furthest flung corners of their homeland for their debut venture into live film, to create something, well, inspirational.
on their way they went to ghost towns, outsider art shrines, national parks, small community halls and the absolute middle-of-nowhere-ness of the highland wilderness, as well as playing the largest gig of their career (and in icelandic history) at their homecoming reykjavik show.
'heima' (icelandic for "at home" or "homeland"), truly, shows sigur rós as never before. whereas seeing the group live is normally a large-scale and sometimes overwhelming experience, making full use of lights and mesmeric visuals, 'heima' was always intended to reveal more of what was actually going on on stage. it does this via long-held close-ups and a rare intimate proximity, without ever once breaking the spell.
loosely based on a documentary format - and including personal reflections from the band - 'heima' also serves as an alternative primer for iceland the country, which is revealed as less stag destination-du-jour and more desolate, magical place where human beings have little right to trespass.
'heima' features performances of songs from all four sigur rós albums, many radically reworked, as well as two exclusive new songs in 'guitardjamm', which was filmed inside an abandoned herring oil tank in the far west of the country, and the traditional 'a ferd til breidarfjardar 1922', performed with poet steindor andersen.
'heima' was directed by dean deblois, a long-time fan of the band and director of the oscar-nominated animated feature 'lilo & stitch', using an icelandic crew.

Hringvegur à Gong
This is my entry for the Sigur Ròs contest on Youtube: Minn Heima.
I didn't want to use the clips given on their site because I found them so beautiful. I chose to use some of them in my own way, with paint and pastels. The idea was to walk backward to the music itself and what it means the moment you hear it. I did no plan about this film, I just drew with what was on the paper. Everything, excepts a few short clips are in stop motion. Which means now I have to clean my room because there's paint everywhere on the floor!
I hope you will enjoy watching it as much as I loved making it. This took me two weeks of work between classes but I felt it was my way to give back. This is my first stop motion film. I've always wanted to try this and this was the good reason for a first step.
Now I let you watch.
Sorry for the quality. I'm trying to get a better one before the end of the contest!

MINN HEIMA - VON to AGAETIS BYRJUN
A short clip for the Minn Heima competition showing the transition from Von to Agaetis Byrjun. With more time I would have liked to extend the clip - at the moment it whets your appetite and then finishes leaving you feeling unfulfilled (so my apologies in advance for that). Either way, I hope you enjoy what is there. Bon Appetit.

I beg, please watch it there instead of on youtube. It's rather frustrating working on animation and editing in hd for hours and hours only to have youtube compress all your hard work beyond recognition.

minn heima
This short film is the result of a labor of love for Sigur Rós and all their fans. It is about their music & sharing. It is about dreaming of Iceland and its powerful landscape. It is above love, but most of all it's about feeling "at home" with something. This is my heima.
