PES

PES (Adam Pesapane) is an American director and stop-motion animator of short films and commercials. His use of everyday objects and stop-motion animation to create original materials instantly recognisable. An early influence of PES's animation style is the work of Czech surrealist Jan Svankmajer. 

In July 2008, PES released his short Western Spaghetti film. The film shows PES cooking with all the ingredients in the dish being rplaced by objects such as tomato pin cushions, rubber bands, post-it notes and bubblewrap -  these are all brought to life through stop-motion animation. The film also won an Honorable Mention at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and the Audience Award at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in June 2009.
