drops of wisdom
Cotton candy is the best flavor of anything. Not only because it’s delicious– because cotton candy flavor, in essence, doesn’t actually exist. In its purest form, cotton candy is just spun sugar, the taste of which was then captured and used to flavor sugar in other forms. There’s nothing about a cotton candy-flavored lollipop that is founded on the basis of reality, but that doesn’t make it any less enjoyable as a treat.
There’s so much falseness in the world, and every day it gets harder and harder to parse out what’s real. We strive, as a production company, to satirize the nonsense. To create caricatures of caricatures. To point and laugh at the things that make life difficult. To present the bizarre artificiality around us in a format that melts on the tongue. Because, when it comes down to it, the main difference between art and a total lie is how much fun you have with it.
A Sweet start
Cotton Candy Flavor Media, LLC was founded in August of 2022 by Elinor Keyes in tandem with the creation of her first production, seven-episode new media web series Olympic Proportions. While working on the project, Elinor discovered a true love for producing independent film, and decided to keep the company up and running after the series' completion in order to continue releasing new and original work. Cotton Candy Flavor Media has been active ever since, eventually expanding their scope and branching into several different facets of the art and entertainment industries beyond just live-action film. Always striving to find new ways to make cool stuff, Cotton Candy Flavor serves as a platform for odd creators to reach odd audiences.
A Bright (Pink) future
As Cotton Candy Flavor Media's identity and legacy continues to grow, the company remains proud to contribute to Hollywood's burgeoning indie scene, bringing you unique and creative content from some of L.A.'s most passionate artists. We plan to keep devoting our focus to highlighting the brilliance of independent work of all kinds, with a focus on the weird, the wacky, and the wonderful.
