This is one of my all time favourite animated films, Food by Jan Svankmajer. Here it is split into three parts - breakfast, lunch and dinner. Very surreal!
BREAKFAST
LUNCH
DINNER
Here are a few of my favourite animations by Len Lye made for the G.P.O in the 1930's. His style of hand colouring and printing onto the actual film itself is still mimicked (digitaly) in adverts today. Remember these films were made before colour film existed.
TRADE TATTOO (1937)
A COLOUR BOX (1935)
RAINBOW DANCE (1936)
