Night of the Living Bread

  • Simon Kotowicz
A short animated sting created using real gingerbread zombies baked by myself. Each gingerbread zombie was photographed at various angles, with careful attention to align the studio lighting in the same place as the moon in the final composite. These images were then cut out using Adobe Photoshop and animated using Adobe After Effects. The overall effect is a little bit more 3D than a conventional 2d stop-motion animation.
