Take a bite out of Tom Sito’s ‘Eat, Drink, Animate: An Animators Cookbook’
| Boca Raton, FL – Tom Sito, the legendary animator behind Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Beauty and the Beast, and other classic works, brings together the perfect fusion of culinary skill and animation in his new cookbook, Eat, Drink, Animate: An Animators Cookbook. Sito’s book is a celebration of the works from legendary animation artists from around the world. These include twelve Academy Award winners, five Emmy Award winners, and legendary animators from Hollywood’s Golden Age, to modern masters.
Not only does he demonstrate examples of their works, but he includes their favorite personal recipe and an anecdote from their professional lives that relates to food. This provides a rare look behind the scenes of some of animation’s most memorable films. These are usable recipes you can make yourself, tested and adapted by Robert Lence, animator and gourmet (Toy Story, Shrek). Eat, Drink, Animate includes never before seen photos and illustrations along with recipes for main dishes, drinks, deserts and snacks, ranging from elegant to simple. On April 13th, 2019 at the CTN Studio in Burbank, CA, there will be a book signing event where Tom Sito will be highlighting his favorite recipes. Tom Sito will be a featured guest speaker at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, which is held June 10 – 15, 2019 in Annecy, France. He has been invited to speak about Food in Animation and will be signing copies of Eat, Drink, Animate. |
