The wonderful film by Ryan Woodward is characterized by gorgeous directing, lyrical choreography and a great love story.
Among the millions of movies, songs and stories about love, there are some which make the heart skip a beat. One of these stories is the animated film “Thought of You” by Ryan Woodward. This charming short film is a visual poetry about love and a bold artistic experiment, which received highly positive reviews from critics and audiences around the world. Its elegant simplicity together with the incredible depth of emotions will not leave you cold. It is difficult to select the right words, so just take a look.
The idea of making this kind of a film originated from animator Ryan Woodward’s dancing hobby, which reveals the beauty and grace of movement of the human body, as well as his nostalgia for the 2D-animation, which Woodward was engaged in from the very childhood. The animator drew his characters by himself; they resembled real dancers, while the simultaneous ease and precision of movement in the film were achieved due to the participation of a choreographer in the process. According to Ryan Woodward, he wanted to create something that would be unique, personal and intimate for everyone, rather than another story with a clear plot and narrative.
World Spins Madly On Lyrics by Weepies
The lyrics are as follows:
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you’d gone
and let the world spin madly on
Everything that I said I’d do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on
I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I’m standing still
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on
I thought of you and where you’d gone
And the world spins madly on.
