TURBO: Tomato Race (2012) Pt. 1 of 4

It's been awhile since my last post, so I thought I'd use the release of Turbo as an occasion to break the ice, so to speak, and post some of my work from the movie.

This sequence is from Act I, which depicts Turbo's humble beginnings as a common, garden-variety snail, named Theo (voiced by Ryan Reynolds).  Like all snails of working-age, Theo takes a job at the"Tomato Plant". He has the unenviable task of receiving and organizing the rejected over-ripe tomatoes into rotting heaps. His older brother Chet (voiced by Paul Giamatti) also works at the plant, but has risen to a more prestigious middle management position.

In this scene, Chet uses their lunch break as an opportunity to give his disheartened baby brother a pep-talk about moving up the corporate ladder. They are interrupted by a loud crash when, the much-anticipated prize tomato, "Big Red" breaks free from the vine and crashes to the ground.
