Inspired by the David Simon’s classic crime drama, The Wire, animator Elliot Lim has created a gorgeous homage to the show and it’s five seasons of grime, crime and double-crossing. Set to The Wire‘s iconic theme music, Way Down in the Hole as performed by The Blind Boys of Alabama, Lim’s animation encapsulates so many of the motif’s that made the show so great, such as the stellar storytelling that absorbed viewers right through to the end. You can also see Lim’s work on the titles of Jay Baruchel’s FX comedy, Man Seeking Woman.
