Fun In A Bakery Shop
''Fun in a Bakery Shop'' is a 1902 American short film by Edwin S. Porter. Porter used stop-motion animation to depict clay loaves being sculpted into faces.Dobson (2010), p. xxiv The film was released on April 3, 1902, by the Edison Manufacturing Company. The film's plot was only the pretext of showcasing the skills of a fast sculptor.Niver (1985), p. 113 Plot The film is set in a bakery's interior. A man dressed as a baker kneads dough on a table, which is located next to an oven. He notices a rat crawling up a barrel, and throws dough at the rat. When the rat is completely covered in dough, the baker pummels that dough with his hands. The baker's back is turned towards the camera, obscuring the manipulation of the dough. When he finishes, the dough has turned into a sculptured mask. The baker proceeds to create another mask. Two other bakers then arrive, and notice what he is doing. They grab him, and stick his head into a barrel of flour. The film ends.Niver (1985), p. 113 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
