Broken Hills • Raz Koller

Uploaded to Youtube by Raz Koller.

Raz Koller is a writer, musician and stop motion animator originally from Tel-Aviv, now based in London.

He recently launched a surreal, dreamlike stop motion animation show called Broken Hills on his YouTube channel. It's a story told in six episodes with mini episodes in between along with twelve accompanying songs.

When asked about the theme of Broken Hills, Koller says, “The story is... Well... I don't really want to give away too much but let's just say that the story is perhaps not what it seems to be at first.”

Koller does all of the writing, design, animation, editing, voices and music himself. He works on his free time so it takes months to make a six- to seven-minute episode. He uses Newplast for the puppets and shoots against a green screen. The backgrounds are Photoshop creations and the editing is done with Adobe Premier.
