"Straight into Your Arms" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy.
The song was released in February 2016 as the second single on the deluxe edition of his debut studio album Dream Your Life Away.
[2] The music video is directed by UK based director Toby Ashenheim, and the poignant video sees two puppets engaged in a stirring and emotional dance, mirrored by their human shadows.
The video took months of meticulous, painstaking work to create – the dolls animated predominantly by hand using strings and basic rigging to simulate dancing, with 3D animation taking care of more complex movements.
I had the idea listening to the track; an image of a worse for wear mannequin, casting a shadow far more dimensional than its stock “one size fits all” appearance.
