The Apple Sisters in "Corndy" Director, Editor (Shot in Sony HDV) This is one of two spoof commercials from The Apple Sisters' Halloween live show. The concept was to present the commercial in the style of live sponsor presentations from early television, and then to break the style parody to emphasize the comedy. Because the show is set in 1943, the decision to shoot in color was based on the costuming and action, and played up as a reminder of the norms of the era.
