Chapter 1: Artist Comparison

'Doll Face' and 'Girl Chewing Gum', on the surface, are two very different videos. 'Doll Face' is a modern animation, while 'Girl Chewing Gum' is a scene from a fairly average road in Britain with narration. When looked at closer, the films seem to have a common concept; Truth in Media.

'Doll Face' is about a woman striving to match the level of 'perfection' she sees on TV, without realising that a lot she sees is a lie. 'Girl Chewing Gum' is about the narrator who, after masquerading as director, exposes himself as being at another location than that of where the filming is taking place.

The differences are much clearer than the similarities, 'Girl Chewing Gum' is an ordinary street being filmed in 1976 with what appears to be a director telling people what to do, as the film goes on, it appears he is lying about everything and isn't even at the filming location.

'Doll Face', is an animation from the year 2003, about a cyborg-thing trying to lean forwards into a TV to get a closer look at the face she is trying to copy.
