Chandler Film LLC's premiere short film! Half life action, half stop motion animation - "Dinner Time" invites you to look at your dinner plate as something more.
Portly Pig Studios (Greg West and Tiger Brooke's company) took on the challenge of animating with only food. They have created a world where literally the roads are made of candy, the monsters are made of mung beans, and the Macaroni King is made of...well...macaroni!
Due to the slow-moving nature of stop motion animation, Greg and Tiger had to exercise their ingenuity as stop motion artists and come up with solutions to the problems of animating with food (the main issue was, of course, spoilage). For example, when coming across issues of wilting with the spinach leaves or celery stalks in the setting, they animated in reverse so the world looked as though it was coming to life!
Although "Dinner Time" runs only for 6 minutes, I can assure you it was the product of Portly Pig's months and months of hard work. Enjoy!
