“After working independently on pieces for VIVID for 3 seasons, it felt like a dream to direct my own projection for the festival of light. Masterchef was a chance for us to bring the character based play that Mighty Nice is so skilled at to a new medium and a new audience.”

TINY CHEFS COOK UP A
MIXED MEDIA EVENT!
Our characters have been animated traditionally by hand in 2D, giving greater contrast against the cake. The cake is built by mini ‘construction chefs’. The cake grows up the height of ASN Co as the little chefs add layer after layer, carefully positioning each element. There are little concrete trucks delivering cream, wheelbarrows delivering strawberries, and crane arms placing toffee.
A chef waves in a ’10’ sculpted out of lights at the pinnacle of the cake to light up the party and kick off the celebrations.
Totally lit!
and the most decent human beings you’ll probably ever meet…
