There is a somber, chaotic and dark feel to these animations of kurt cobain's journal entries and drawings that give the audience an intimate look into his thought process, even if it is only another persons external interpretation of how kurt might want his drawings to move, if he wished for them to move.
i think the feelings that are emoted while watching the rotoscoped segments of the film, come over due to the way the actions on screen seem to have more expressive qualities to them than if we were just watching normal video footage.
the animations of Cobain's journals are almost brought to life by giving the effect on the drawings and writing by having them appear on the page accompanied by the sound of a pen scratching the paper.
There is an attention to detail with the use of diagetic and non-diagetic sounds that makes the rotoscoped animation seem very believable.
i believe the directors of this film wanted to communicate the message that kurt cobain was a troubled creative person who was; brutally honest, expressive, yet consumed by insecurities and scared of ridicule.
