BCM has completed a new historical animation for Good Eats with Alton Brown on the Food Network.
Artists Walter Biscardi, Jr., Aaron Stewart and Brian Mead worked closely with Alton Brown and producer Dana Popoff to create the latest in a series of historical animation that have been created for the Good Eats. This time it's a look at crackers, which have a surprisingly interesting story to tell! Animated by Biscardi in 720p HD, the one minute animation will appear in an upcoming episode in Winter 2008.
Tools used: Photoshop, After Effects, Canon 30D camera, Crackers.
Thanks for the kind words Mike. Yes, I am very lucky to be involved with the show and able to work with Alton. He's a great guy and incredibly creative.
Next time you see AB, mention my favorite family recipe, Fried Crackers. Basically french toast using Saltines instead of bread. It's what grandpa ate in the Depression.
Seriously, I think its great that you get to work on stuff like this, seen by so many millions of people.

Favorite pastime is cooking with pizza on the grill one of my specialties. Each Christmas Eve we serve the Feast of the Seven Fishes, a traditional Italian seafood meal with approx. 30 items on the menu.
If I wasn't in video production I would either own a restaurant or a movie theater.
