Michael Pollan's 'Food Rules' as a Stop-Motion Animation Video

Created by Marija Jacimovic and Benoit Detalle, this animation is the most refreshing take on the classic since Maira Kalman's illustrated edition.

The fine folks at the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, known for their brilliant sketchnote animations of talks by prominent authors and scientists, recently launched a competition, inviting emerging filmmakers to bring RSA talks to life in fresh ways. This fantastic stop-motion entry by Marija Jacimovic and Benoit Detalle, which took more than three weeks to create, is based on Michael Pollan's iconic Food Rules and is the most refreshing take on the classic since Maira Kalman's illustrated edition.
