Courtney Love Gets Animated in New Short Film

Posted Wednesday September 29, 2010 2:02 PM GMT

Making for quite the interesting project, Courtney Love is featured in a new six-minute animated short created by Michael Mouris called "The Dark Night of the Soul."

Put together in six months with only a $5,000 budget, the short follows Miss Love's transformation from grunge poster-girl to Birkin bag toting elegance.

Of working with the "Hole" singer, Mouris told WWD, "The only notes she gave me were to take the fan out of Karl Lagerfeld's hand and to give Andre Leon Talley a cape. Other than that, I think I had free reign."

Never one to hold back with her words, Courtney said, "One of the stills was photographed after I had the best sex of my entire life."

Expanding further on the creation of the video, Michael said, "My process is called pixilation, which is animated with stop-motion, but uses real people instead of puppets. All of the images come from photographs. I hire actors to play the parts, photograph them in stop-motion and then I collage the photographs."
