eat pes

the pes films that we watched were absolutely incredible. The detail that goes into them is even more appreciated after trying to do the plane animation on out own. i showed kaboom to all of my friends after class. I think the fact the pes has gotten so many commercials is interesting. I have been bringing this up in many conversations in the past year but i think that it is fascinating that experimental cinema is finding its way into cinema.

This can be scene in Coca-Cola with the animation that is supposedly in a vending machine. There have been several Charles Schawb commericial that have involved the same look as a scanner darkly and other independent films that had rotoscoping. The NBA playoff commericial have had griddy photoshop layers with the opacity pulled way down and major color correction.

It is clear to see we are enetering an age where boundries are being pushed and people don't want to see the same thing anymore.
