A few years ago, I had the opportunity to hear (and meet) Phil Vischer, the creator of Veggie Tales. It was awesome! One of the things that he addressed in his talk is the reason why he chose to use vegetables as his main characters… it was just easiest to animate. The one key issue was the difficulty in animating arms on the Veggies. He finally got around this by…well… choosing to NOT give his characters arms.
I understand that this was probably the best thing to do at that time (and the easiest), but here’s one actor that wishes Phil and his Veggie crew would have spent just a little more time perfecting … arms!
