Hershey's Really Big! 3D Show
Фильм және анимация
This is the full monoscopic footage for Hershey's Really Big 3D Show, a 10 minute short film shown at Hershey's Chocolate World between 2002-2013. It was created by Threshold Digital Research Labs and directed by Gary Goddard. This short film paved the way for future production on Foodfight! which much of the same crew would go on to work on such as animator Jeremy Yates, modeler Neil Fordice and character designer Jim George.
Originally, when this film was presented in person the host that the main character refers to would be saying their lines in person. In this version the lines have been pre-recorded for reasons I'm not entirely sure. So it isn't quite the raw file that would have been used in the theater, but it's the next best thing (and also perfect for watching at home.)
This was generously sent by an anonymous crew member.

1:55-2:10 Jesus, I just love the strong poses. And this is from early CGI.

if there’s one thing you could commend threshold animation on around this time, they certainly pushed for more stylisation and cartoony squash and stretch than like every other CG studio at the time (at least up until larry kasanoff went gaga for underdeveloped 2000s motion capture)

Not early, it's from the early 2000s. CG animation has been a thing since the 1970s.

@@CranberryCartoons You know, if Larry Kasanoff didn’t go for motion capture, FoodFight would’ve elevated to “So bad, it’s good.” The story isn’t so much the issue, rather it’s deciding to use mocap for everything.
This should have been what Foodfight been like
From the studio that brought you Food Fight 😂😂😂
Tbh I like these designs more than the modern ones
Hershey’s Really Big 3D Show literally shows that the studio could have done SO much better with Foodfight but they made that movie one of the most unbearable and worst movies I have seen in my life!
I remember seeing this as a kid and looking back at it now, I completely forgot how freaking weird this thing was.
Hard to believe this was made by the same studio that originally did Foodfight! Makes me wonder now if the planned final version would've been better had it not gone through the ordeal and finished by the company that acquired it. And yes; I saw the original trailer for the film, but after looking at this, what if *that* footage was all just a work-in-progress? And I believe the pre-recorded lines were a guide track for whoever was scheduled to host the show. And if I'm not mistaken, that's the voice of Maurice LaMarche as Johnny Proctor I hear. ;)

You're correct! The footage from the first trailer was all test animation and hero shots from a sizzle reel shown to potential investors at the time. But it is fun to wonder what a whole movie like that could've been like. Thanks for your theory on the voice lines! That might very well be the case. I'll talk to the person I got this from today and ask if he knows the actual reason.

I am glad that this is no longer lost media. I'm astonished that Hershey didn't copyright claim or strike this video. Hershey still should've re-released it on Blu-ray/DVD after they closed the attraction and replaced it with the 4D Chocolate Show.
Never expected this lost piece of media to be found but glad it did!! even though this show is gone, the “welcome to the word of chocolate” song is still used for the HersheyPark entrance, however, still wondering if it’s possible for the 4D chocolate factory mystery show to be found too but for now I’m glad this is found
This is awesome. Thank you. I lost count of how many times my daughter and I saw this. It’s like an old friend.
We need Danny Devito to come into chocolate world dressed up as Hollywood Johnny Proctor 😂😂

This makes me think and imagine... what if?.. the original footage of Foodfight we see wasn't meant to represent the actual movie and this short represents what the actual animation would look like
I remember watching this Movie back in 2012 With my Dad At Hershey Park, its nice to see this movie in High Quality 12 years later. Thank you for Preserving this Film.
SUPER cool to see this. I can definitely see the resemblance to Foodfight though the animation here is significantly better. Thanks for posting.
Dude this is the year of lost Threshold media, first this and now the 2003 Foodfight Workprint! What next……um……..I don’t really know…..um……The Foodfight Video Game?

I work at Hershey chocolate world at the great candy expedition and have the sign of the tittle for the big 3D show outside the theater in my house! I don’t know why they gave it away for why I took it but I have it ❤ I ts been so long I almost forgot about this. It was fuzzy in my mind.

Living candy: "chocolate chocolate, we love chocolate, it's our favorite thing'' CANNIBALISM CONFIRMED?!?!?
Yeah if I was forced to work in a cold, dark n' dank studio working on a subpar movie, all while hearing this show's song on loop in the background for nearly a decade? I'd be irritable enough to leave a scathing review of the film on Amazon too. That being said, the animation here is MILES better than what we got in with Foodfight.
Okay, that dude in red, has got to be my favorite character from threshold, he kinda reminds me of that character voiced by danny devito who trained Hercules in the Disney Hercule film. Plus, his animations felt like something out of 90s disney and 50s looney tunes.
OMG! You actually found it! 😄

It still exists. The studio has it as well as another crew member (and likely a few others that I don't know of). I just don't have a copy and the member that does only has it in pieces and is not comfortable sharing it due to professional courtesy. The 2003 version was only a 7 minute reel though. There isn't an entire movie to search for.
