HOT NUTS (2012)

A short film made for "Tom Sachs: Space Program Mars." I volunteered at the exhibition and was given the wonderful opportunity to make them a film. This is a possible rough cut.
Tom Sachs has an array of other awesome films (not made by me :P) over at www.10bullets.com.
During my time volunteering, I was very often given the job of "hot nuts" - essentially, packing candied peanuts into aluminum foil packets using an ingenious contraption made in the studio. Although very complex and interesting, after around 3-4 hours, the task, I felt, began to become menial, boring, and, well, mind-numbing. This video illustrates my attempt to bring the fun back into the task. I'll remember it fondly.

i really like how you sped up the clips + replayed them as the music got more intense. that's awesome! ...but what happens to the candied peanuts afterwards? is there any specific reason why they made an exibit that packs peanuts in aluminum? ...just seems kinda random.
