The best part of making 500 Pound Planet was that it turned life into a big scavenger hunt. Our mashup style let us animate using clay, stop motion puppets, photo montage- anything! In this chapter, we actually manipulated a piece of raw chicken.
As a result, wherever we went we were always collecting material. We drove from Montreal to New Orleans and sifted through dozens of thrift stores along the way, two grown men searching for Barbie clothes. Josh voraciously photographed Montreal for our backgrounds (much of what he captured is now gone). Even conversations were useful- we'd secretly record our friends talking and then beg them to let us "sample" the best parts in our cartoon.

Jesse,
have you used the audio clip about taxi cabs and chivalry elsewhere? I was afflicted with massive dejavu upon hearing it.
Completely loving this movie so far. feel like watching it is getting me high everytime, however.
@Nehpetse- nope, I haven't done anything else with that clip. Maybe Josh has? It's Leon Louder as the purple chivalrous dude...
