Watch Foods Deflate, Then Inflate, Then Dance Around To Music

It’s probably best if you just go ahead and watch the 3d-animated, Still Life, by artist Mike Pelletier. Then, decide for yourself if it’s soothing, disturbing, or a bit of both.

Perhaps the video will even stir up new emotions… ones that didn’t exist before watching foods flop around to a synth soundtrack. Enjoy.

Food and Everyday Objects Get Emotional With Animated Faces

If you’ve ever wondered how food and everyday objects feel about being squeezed, sliced, or performing their own mundane tasks — then look no further than these animations by Sean Charmatz.

The Secret World of Stuff is a series of objects in action and, by adding a face and simple animation, they come to life and emote. Sometimes the result is good (smiley face) and sometimes the anthropomorphic objects are ingested or destroyed (sad face, or no face at all). Check them out below.

Classic Video Game Action Recreated Using Food and Everyday Items

pac-man-pes

It’s true, kids… There was a time when U.S. quarters and 8-bits worth of action ruled. Animator, PES, wants to give us the warm nostalgic feeling that only old-school video games can provide.

Game Over is a brilliant stop-motion animation that uses food and everyday items to recreate classic video game action.

The blistering speed and chaos of Centipede is recreated with muffins and cupcakes, while Pac-Man is made from a pizza pie with some slices removed. No wonder the ghosts chase him around. Quarters up!!
