Popcorn

How do you pop popcorn? This 16 second New Year’s treat by Zita Bernet and Rafael Sommerhalder of Zurich-based animation studio Crictor suggests that popping kernels one at a time could be a thing. But please don’t try it at home unless it’s animated.

Here’s another playful Crictor short, a 2013 New Year’s message titled Ping Pong:

And from 2007: Egg. What will happen when the egg drops?
