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 poke fun 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 to go along with the creation of her first production, seven-episode new media webseries Olympic Proportions. While working on the project, many members of the cast and crew discovered a love for guerrilla, community-oriented filmmaking, and became inspired to continue creating work together after the series had wrapped. From this passion for creation, the Paper Cones Group was formed: a tight-knit, collaboration-based collective devoted to developing and producing content under the Cotton Candy Flavor Media company name. The group has continued to meet weekly ever since, and works together consistently in order to make and share their own new, original film projects.

A Bright (Pink) future

Since the beginning, Cotton Candy Flavor Media has maintained its dedication both to producing unique and important content and to uplifting members of the independent filmmaking community by giving them a convenient and supportive place to share their work.
