Kina Grannis, a guitarist and singer-songwriter, began her career after winning the Doritos' Crash the Super Bowl contest. As a result of winning the contest, her music video for "Message From Your Heart" was played during the commercials of Super Bowl XLII. Her music is mainly pop or acoustic, and several of her songs have made appearances on television shows including General Hospital. Grannis began her World In Front of Me tour in the beginning of this year, and she plans to perform in Europe, Southeast Asia, and Australia later this year.
For twenty-two months, Grannis has been working on a music video for her single "In Your Arms." She called it her "Secret Crazy Project" because she wanted to create a video that nobody else has made before. Grannis was successful because her video features the use of 288, 000 Jelly Belly jelly beans and stop motion animation. The music video is unique because of Grannis' use of the jelly beans to create different backgrounds and effects. I thought her idea was very distinctive because she actually interacted with the objects that the jelly beans were forming. The light, happy tone of the song is supported by the creative use of jelly beans, making the audience feel carefree.
