Hi Stranger


To compete PPP2 blogpost I want to dedicate this last post as an appreciation to 'Hi Stranger' an experimental animation made viral by the Internet. I ditched Mr. Madila, and this animation has become my current favourite animation. The main appeal of this animation to me is the alluring voice of the naked character and the sense of genuinity in the way he talks. The dialogue offers warmth, comfort and zen, making the audience distracted from obligation and seek comfort. The oiled plasticine material purposefully makes the naked character looks uncanny and the mysterious gestures that he does incite curiosity. Keeping things secret is an element that keep this short successful to engage the audience emotionally. Therefore, it has the quality to be rewatched over and over again.
