Many of us are told as kids to quit playing with your food at the table.  It is impolite and ill-mannered.

Fortunately, some of us stride to break from normal tradition and take them to a whole new level:

Amazing.  Simply amazing.  According to the description written by the production team:

“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.”

Now, that is talent and  dedication.  The film is superb especially on how the “cast” was chosen to represent the countries in this feature.

I only hope that my next meal will be as loud and as action-packed as a summer movie blockbuster.  Probably directed by Michael Bay for the sheer amount of explosions it would require.
