Project Incognito is a curious piece, made in ’97, that showcases a quirky slice of New York life. Using rotoscoping—something noteworthy for its roots in an MTV contest—it captures animated interviews with random folks from Washington Square Park. The overall vibe feels spontaneous and raw, and the animation style gives it this dreamlike quality, blending reality with a surreal touch. The pacing wavers, sometimes meandering through the conversations, which adds to that laid-back atmosphere. You can almost feel the energy of the park, the mix of personalities, and the candid moments. It’s a blend of art and documentary that stands out for its approach, making you think about the stories around us in everyday settings.
