On the 40th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side Of The Moon,” animator Cliff Port has unveiled a tribute to the legendary album with the release of an animated short entitled “Bad Day At The Office.”
In June of 1973, Pink Floyd were performing on the Dark Side tour at Detroit's Olympia Stadium, and the venue policy was to use only in-house staff who were more used to covering ice hockey events.
Using new animation and an actual recording of Pink Floyd lighting designer Arthur Max, it shows him grappling with the technical challenge of working with a brand-new follow-spot crew.
“Bad Day At The Office” debuted at the Glastonbury Festival last weekend.
