Food Fight! An abridged history of American-centric warfare told through food [VIDEO]

This “stop motion” video is an abridged history of American-centric warfare, from WWII to present day, told through the foods of the countries in conflict…. and it’s awesome.  Made back in 2008, tourist pictures really nailed this interpretation of historical events.  The first time I watched it, it took me a bit to figure out what was going on, so if needed, there’s a breakdown of the battles below.  Enjoy!

FROM THE MOST AWESOME CREATOR

For the official cheat sheet (breakdown of the battles and foodstuffs), visit: www.touristpictures.com

  • 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.
