Kirsten lepore is famous for her Bottle animation with the sand and snow man. But I stumbled across her sweet dreams animation and found these trailers for brands. Although they aren't technically documentary they fit nicely into the food category. And I really like how it's not really fiction, it's still based upon a brand and their statements and I think it contrasts nicely from our project because it shows a fun side to this project. I think it's really fascinating how in the group we have massive differences between the funny documentary's and the dark ones. Me and Anna are feeling far too serious about our work to do anything funny, also the stop motion style suits the dark and the creepy.

I really like the Jalpeno kicking in the womb, with just the right amount of kick, this is so innovative, I appreciate this!



I also think that the style of Lepore's animation is really quite smooth, but she knows when to have pauses and hold on a still camera shot. I think this really makes the animation seem like magic.
