Halsey — Concept Animation

Faceworld

A concept pass for a Halsey music video, built as named beats off a motion storyboard.

Beats, not shots

Walking Man, Fire Burning, Couple Hold and Melt, Look Down and Run, Pose and Evaporate. Each one is a short sequence rendered off a storyboard and comped into the whole.

Fire, studied twice

A candle study and a log study for the same beat — the kind of small parallel test that decides whether an idea survives to the edit.

Graphic, on purpose

The renders are small, flat, 2D-feeling frames rather than heavy 3D plates. The look is the point, not a limitation.
