Here is the example library of other great artists who have made great animations for music videos in pixel art. Honestly, this 8bit, 16bit art has inspired me and made me enjoy it immensely; it transports me back in front of my old Mega Drive with these retro game finishes. The categories are invented by me, so don't take them literally. I would like to highlight that one of my favorites are the pixel background animations, those infinite loops that absorb my concentration while listening to the music. I think they are great as a presentation for a musical animation work.
Format 1. Short Film
Creation of an animated music video with as many scenes as the song needs to create a complete narrative.
Format 2. Game
Creation of pixel art animation based on video game formats.
Format 3. Animated Backgrounds
Creation of pixel art music videos based on a looping image, cycle, or loops. Call it whatever you like.
Format 4. Live Music
Creation of pixel art music videos based on a band or artist playing their music, for example at a concert, or better... In the middle of a volcano spewing fire? This animation is mine and it is perfectly synchronized with the music, both vocals and instrument playing.
Format 5. La M.O.D.A.
Creation of pixel art music videos based on the band La M.O.D.A. Surely their ideas will also inspire your music videos.
