The document describes a music video that uses stop motion animation and old family photographs to illustrate the lyrics of the song "Mad World". Various stop motion animations such as stick figures, Lego blocks, and a puzzle are shown through camera pans and stationary shots. Old photos and videos from the singer's childhood and holidays are displayed on screen. The title of the song is spelled out through stop motion letters. Overall, the video uses disjunctive and illustrative stop motion effects and historical images to visualize the lyrics.
