Little Piece Of Hair

Little Piece of Hair is the sophomore video collaboration between Knuckles and Century Egg.
This time around the band came with the love and support of their label Forward Music Group.
Due to the pandemic and also living a hemisphere apart, the approach was to make a fully animated video made in the Knuckles Studio in Sydney.
The design for the video was inspired by the cover art (painted by the lead singer Shane Song) from the album of same name, Little Piece of Hair. The character was interpreted in amigurumi, Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small, stuffed yarn creatures.
