When we first watched a film by Jan Svankmejer in class I couldn’t
really see myself liking anything like that because it was honestly kind of
off-putting? But Dylan did a really great job of showcasing his work and what
was awesome and interesting about it, and his presentation had a certain flair
that made him really engaging. I loved
the film Food the most. I’ve always found myself drawn to “ugly” stop
motion and drawn animation (i.e: Gumby, early Rugrats, anything kind of grotesque
but endearing) so I’m glad I got to see more of Svankmejer’s work. I was mostly mesmerized by the sheer amount
of time it must’ve taken to painstakingly animate all of that food.
