Hookedblog's Best of 2014 - Street Art Short Films

After the positive response, we got to our Best of 2013 — Street Art Short Films post we thought it would make sense to kick off the new year and share another selection of some of the street art short films and time-lapse videos that have caught our attention over the last year. 

As with our 2013 selection of street art short films, the collections of films featured below are in no particular order but are a selection we thought you our readers would enjoy watching over the holiday season.



Stencil Artist M-City in Norway
—

Following on from his impressive work on an Airport Control tower, stencil artist M-City returned to Stavanger in Norway for this year's edition of the Nuart Festival where he painted 'Ocean Art' - a 90m long offshore supply vessel - covering 200 m2 of its bow. 

After three long days of painting the ship was christened and set sail, the film above shows M-City at work.

NY street artist Swoon
—

And finally, this short film features a video interview with a young Caledonia Dance Curry better known as SWOON.

Strictly not a new film, but one we have not seen before and one that has just recently appeared online so we figured it was worth sharing here. The film was shot by Joey Garfield as part of a documentary film series he filmed with Upper Playground.


We hope you enjoyed our 2014 collection of short street art films, if there is anything you think we have missed let us know and we will add it to the post. And if you missed our selection of short films from 2013 you can enjoy the  street art collection here.
