288,000 Jelly Beans Used To Create Stop Motion Music Video

Sometimes it takes an incredible, meticulous, endless, mind-boggling amount of work to get noticed, but that’s exactly what Kina Grannis and those behind her latest music video have done. Using 288,000 jelly beans, 30 people, 1,357 hours and 22 months, a production team created an awesome stop-motion video for her song “In Your Arms”. Check it out after the break.

And here's how it was done, which is quite fascinating:

Lunch today

I started getting back on Sparkpeople.com two weeks ago, and already I'm seeing results. I'm tracking food and starting to exercise again, and already I've lost five pounds.

I've been making a real effort to eat more vegetables, and more vegetarian meals. In fact, I think I last ate meat four or more days ago, can't quite remember.

Today's lunch was so pretty, I took a picture. Open faced broiled veggie sandwiches. I took two pieces of bread, spread them with dijon mustard, and topped with shredded carrots and beets, purple cauliflower and slices of red bell pepper. I sprinkled muenster cheese on top, broiled it to melt the cheese, and then spread some hummus on top of that. Yummy and virtuous.









(You do realize that no one else in my family would touch something like this.)
