Food Fight

|

A fantastic “stop motion” (* see last note below) animation piece that recreates major military battles.. with food.  It’s fantastic and grotesque.. perfect for your typical LTV fan.

“An abridged history of American-centric warfare, from WWII to present day, told through the foods of the countries in conflict.”

Now, to answer some FAQs…
- The food in this film was consumed either by myself or my dog after shooting. None of the cast went to waste.
- The software used was photoshop and after effects.
- The film took me 3 months to do.
- Although it seems like stop motion, most of it was stop motion created within After effects, using keyframe animation. I am basically moving the food around within the the program, frame by frame, which is the same as traditional stop motion, only it’s digital.
