Most Creative Food Stop-Motion Videos


Shooting video ain’t easy. Editing is even harder. Thank goodness for a good production team.

Every once in a while, a video catches my eye and captures my heart. While I obviously love food food food, food videos can become repetitive and mundane. That’s why I’m so drawn to video makers that push the envelop to design unconventional food videos.

Allow me to suggest my favourite foodie stop-motion videos.


Food about you – Festival d’Annecy 2010

This colourful and clean video is not only fun to watch, it also stimulates the viewer’s imagination about the food industry’s future. Does this video depict the consequence of our continual abuse of the Earth’s providence?


Cooking with Photoshop

As a huge Photoshop nerd, I give miltonmunoz props for capturing the software’s functions so accurately. I enjoy how this video presents the tangible cookie baking process in a contemporary, technological way. The simplicity of the materials used brings an additional charm.


Pancakes for your face

Part music video, part pancake tutorial. I especially love how the ingredients dance around to the music. The humorous Matrix twist at the end is a cute surprise.


Western Spaghetti by PES

An oldie but definitely a goodie. In fact, this is my all time favourite. Hands down exemplar. I have yet to find anything as innovative as PES’ use of everyday items to create the illusion of cooking spaghetti with tomato sauce. Bravo.

    I LOVE everything about this post.

    I wonder how many other examples of stop motion relating to food are out there?

    I found this one I like, though certainly not as clever as the PES version (maybe it’s the kooky German that appeals to me): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94jucEEKJXQ

    This one is downright creepy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87ixWDJzREE
