PEN Story

This ad celebrating the 50th anniversary of the PEN camera series required over 10,000 still photographs. It follows a user over 50 years. -Thanks, Chicomathmom!
Wolf pig! That’s it! I was trying my best to remember that one, and I couldn’t find it using “stop-motion” or “still photographs” as search terms, since I couldn’t recall what it was about.
I like it, that must have been hard work. Reminds me of this Francis Ford Coppola quote I just read: “You have to view things in the context of your life expectancy.” All of those apparently ordinary activities seem much more important and significant when seen within the restrained scope of a lifetime.
Did anyone else find it odd that the guy’s family disappears after the beach scene? I thought it was kind of sad from then on.
Does anyone know this song… I tried to search it but didn’t find anything. It has such a nice tone!
