With the power of technology this may or may not be Andrew’s final film project! 

He had left the industry in 2022 but has since revived old projects (and some new) to be released with the intent to close the book on his film life… That being said, technology has made it easier for Andrew to stay creative from time to time. Not just with film projects but with concert and sports FAN coverage.

All this is to say that even though Andrew Di Pardo has left the film world behind, it’s possible that he may return from time to time to make some small projects with the power of AI. If he chooses to do so! Nothing is confirmed but Andrew has opened that door.

TFS article (January 2024): Screenwriting Grad Andrew Di Pardo Releases Animated Short, The Angry Cook

 Class of 2015 Writing for Film & Television grad Andrew Di Pardorecently released his newest film – an animated short called The Angry Cook: Deli Nightmares. 

Conceived alongside Jon Pierceback in 2018, the pair drew from their experiences working in restaurants as inspiration for the film’s plot.

“It was loosely based on how a cook we knew would react when getting angry at last-second orders before closing,” he said.

“We took the anger idea one step further and into a very dark, twisted direction, as we made him kill the people he found responsible for his unhappiness in the job.”

Di Pardo was also able to enlist the help of two Disney animators, Matthew Quan-Yin (one of his childhood friends) and Kyron Miller, who both jumped at the chance to work on the project after reading its concept.

“It was a great experience making this film. It was in the making since 2019 and got delayed and even cancelled at one point, due to COVID,” said Di Pardo.

“But now, with the help of AI technology, I was able to take the concepts that were made by Matthew and Kyron and turn them into a small horror animation film. This is the most unique project I have ever made, and I am very satisfied with the results.”

The Angry Cook: Deli Nightmares is currently available on YouTube.
