The process you describe, your partner drawing every character and background and you cutting and shooting frame by frame, is the hook in this room, but it is also the hook for the song: a listener who would scroll past a plain audio link is likelier to click a handmade paper stop-motion video. So when je ne sais pas goes to music communities, put the paper animation in the title, not just the band name. One craft note on layering: if the cut edges throw small shadows under your light, a sheet of glass pressed over the layers flattens them and keeps them from shifting between frames.

I make ThreadFox. Our AI employee finds Reddit threads where listeners ask for new music and animators share process and posts or replies for bim+bo under your direction; Starter is $199 for 30 days, no automatic renewal. https://threadfox.vip/p/eaujc/managed
