Día de Muertos para Cartoon Network México (Stop Motion)

Calaveritas Día de Muertos con Chowder para Cartoon Network México from Mauricio Olivares Paganoni on Vimeo.

I wanted to share this spot I produced with everyone since Día de Muertos is really close. Its in spanish and it is a calaverita which is a sort of poetry that makes fun of the dead. That is one of the hard core traditions in Mexico for Day of the Dead. We make fun of everything in my country, even dead. Here Chowder and Schnitzel are trying to cook some special dish but they cooked something so weird that dead comes out from it (The Grimm). And when they bake it, surprise! La Catrina (representation of the Death in Mexico) comes out from it thanking them for bringing her back from far away and getting to see his brother (The Grimm) again.

This promo has already aired on CN Mexico and will re air this year. For those in the US you can practice your spanish. Day of the Dead is November 2nd in Mexico.
