Brainfood Employees Compete in Dallas' 24 Hour Video Race.

Three Brainfood employees joined friends, family and members of neighborhood animation studio Janimation to form Heavy Petting Zoo.

The team competed in the Hollywood Division with their entry, Cover Story 2: Vengeance is a Foot. The premise is that Chuck Norris' foot is Roundhouse who travels the world delivering its trademarked Roundhouse. Rules restricted that everything from concept creation to final edit delivery had to happen within 24 hours and total length was limited to five minutes. Vengeance is four minutes and 26 seconds of sheer fun. Laughter, however, far exceeds the five minute mark.

The Zoo placed second in their division, those groups with six or more members. Erik says, "Roundhouse is the Second Coming! This makes second place the new first!"

After the race, Brainfood, working with Heavy Petting Zoo, created The Fist (thefist.com) as a resource for collaboration with other new filmmakers. Visit The Fist to watch the video.

The 5th Annual 24 Hour Video Race is sponsored by the Dallas Video Association.
Cover Story 2: Vengeance is a Foot post-production was done at Janimation.
