Totoro (2006)
–choreography–
Two characters take their form out of stereotypes to narrate an unimportant story based on the dynamics, timing and clichés of Animé. Short video loops often used as a background to credits, brief clips used as separators before and after commercials, the insert of highly synthesized gestures from graphic comics (Mangá) are the elements that inspired ‘Totoro’
