0:00:02 > 0:00:05I'm Ricky. I live in Bristol.
0:00:05 > 0:00:10By day, I work as an animator, which is lucky, cos I love art.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11I live for art.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13I even dream of art... Excuse!
0:00:13 > 0:00:14I draw.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16I paint.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19I make things.
0:00:21 > 0:00:22I hang out with my mates,
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Gavin, Michelle,
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Rich and Sarah.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Most importantly, I make ninja moves.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34Some people call me...
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Today, I'll show you how to turn your salad into a face place mat.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39Ninja skills.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43More food for thought, with fruit pompoms,
0:00:43 > 0:00:47and I get fit, and fit in some art, with some other guys dressed in red.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Because today, it's...
0:00:54 > 0:00:56HE YAWNS
0:00:56 > 0:00:58It's a new day.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01But it seems like I've overslept. It's almost lunchtime!
0:01:01 > 0:01:04I'd better get my ninja on.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05And my clothes.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Whoa.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24I feel dizzy! I didn't realise I was afraid of heights.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Ooh, I still feel a bit dizzy. Maybe I'm just hungry.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33I'll nip out and get some supplies.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Can't wait to tuck in to these doughnuts.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42Hi, Ricky. Word's got round you need some help eating some doughnuts.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43You don't even like doughnuts.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48I don't. But Michelle, Matt and Rich do.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50You don't mind if I take some for them, do you?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- But now there's none left for me! - Probably for the best.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Less a six-pack, more of a family pack.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Mm. This is much better for me,
0:02:05 > 0:02:07and it's given me an idea to brighten this place up.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09It's...
0:02:09 > 0:02:11the Art Ninja fruit pompoms.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Get rid of that. Ooh, in the bin.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19So I've got myself some card and an old CD here.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Just going to draw round that with a pencil,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25and around the centre bit there.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28And just to make that hole in the middle slightly larger,
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I'm going to draw round a glue stick.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34There we are.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Going to draw a couple of lines now, just to make a horseshoe shape.
0:02:39 > 0:02:40I'm going to cut that out.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55Now I'm going to need two of those, so I'm going to use my ninja skills.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59There we go. Now I'm going to grab some wool.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Just get a little bit of white here.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10I'm just going to lay that loosely on one of the cardboard horseshoes.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12And with a couple of bits of masking tape,
0:03:12 > 0:03:14stick it down on the other side.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17I'll show you what this bit of thread is for later.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Then I'm going to sandwich that between the two pieces of card.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26There we are. This is the frame that I'm going to wrap
0:03:26 > 0:03:29most of the wool around to make the pompom.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Start off with a nice bit of red. Very vibrant red.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36Just pop it in like that. I don't need to tie it off.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39I can literally just start wrapping it round.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42As long as I go over the loose piece, it won't come undone.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50And I'm not going to detach the red, I'm going to leave it on there,
0:03:50 > 0:03:54just loose like that, and I'm going to add a couple of threads of white.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Every now and again I'm going to stop
0:03:56 > 0:03:58and disperse a bit more white through it.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00And those little white loops every now and again
0:04:00 > 0:04:03interspersed throughout it will become the seeds.
0:04:05 > 0:04:06That's it, and then back on the red.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Just going to intersperse a couple more loops of white in here
0:04:13 > 0:04:15so the seeds go all the way out of the fruit.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18So you may have guessed from the colours that I'm using
0:04:18 > 0:04:21that I'm doing a strawberry with some white seeds,
0:04:21 > 0:04:24and the green wool is for the stalk at the top.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30A great way to unwind, although I'm winding up.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35By making the horseshoe larger or smaller,
0:04:35 > 0:04:37you can create bigger or smaller fruit.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Right, I'm done with that red now. Snip that bit off.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I'm done with the white too.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Now I'm going to do the stalk of the strawberry.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48That's this nice green colour. Very rich green.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54I'm just winding the green on one end
0:04:54 > 0:04:57because the stalk's only at one end of a strawberry.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59There we go. I think that's done.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Chop off the excess of the green.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Just going to ease free our little loose bits of wool
0:05:08 > 0:05:12that I tied between the horseshoes at the beginning.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15That's the first one. And one from the other side.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Now I'm just going to tie a loose knot in it, like that.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Not a very tight knot because I need a bit of space
0:05:21 > 0:05:25so I can get my scissors between the two pieces of cardboard.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I'm going to slide a pair of scissors between them like that,
0:05:27 > 0:05:29and start cutting the wool.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Now this is a tricky bit, so maybe get an adult to help.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Don't worry about cutting the card
0:05:36 > 0:05:38cos that's going to slide out later, anyway.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45There we go. It's starting to look a bit more like a strawberry now,
0:05:45 > 0:05:46full and juicy.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Now I'm going to tie those two pieces of wool a lot tighter
0:05:49 > 0:05:53to hold it all together and slide out these pieces of card.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Looks like a bit of a fluffy weird strawberry at the moment,
0:05:58 > 0:06:01so we can start giving it a bit of a haircut.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05You see how all the white bits
0:06:05 > 0:06:08I wrapped round every now and again have become the seeds.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Just cutting the stalk into shape now.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16And I've left these two white strands here
0:06:16 > 0:06:18so I can hang it up once I've finished.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20They are decorations, after all.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24There we are. I think that's done.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26A fabulous strawberry. I'll just add it to my display.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29You can use different coloured wool and make any fruit you like.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33I've made a watermelon and a couple of slices of kiwi fruit too.
0:06:35 > 0:06:40The fruit pompom - a juicy decoration for any occasion.
0:06:48 > 0:06:53What is Gav talking about, more family pack than six-pack?
0:06:53 > 0:06:54I'm looking good.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57What are you talking about? Look at that belly!
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Hey, you, don't be so cheeky.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02A six-pack is far more fitting for a ninja, though.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05On reflection, maybe he's right.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10Maybe I'd lose more junk from my trunk if I was animated.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12A bit like this picture.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Hey, guys, watch this.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Dude!- Wow!
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Is this is a new trick of Rich's?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25No, it's just an animation.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27A floaty one.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29I've no idea how that happened.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Well, usually in animation if we want to hold
0:07:32 > 0:07:35a character in the air, we'd use some wire that we call rigging.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Then we'd take a clean plate of the animation set
0:07:37 > 0:07:40without the model in, and we'd paint them out afterwards.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45But in this case, we're going to do a little trick.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48So to make this cool friend-floaty animation,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50you'll need a friend...
0:07:52 > 0:07:54..or some friends.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05Yeah. And a tablet device with some kind of animation app.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08And you can put it together in just three ninja moves.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11'Ninja move number one.'
0:08:11 > 0:08:13So the first thing I need to do is practice
0:08:13 > 0:08:15getting good at taking a picture at just the right time,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18and that's when Rich is at his highest point in his jump.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Hmm, that was a little bit too late. Try again.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Hey, that's better.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28About...there.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29That's the good bit there. Also,
0:08:29 > 0:08:32I'm going to want him to try and keep his hands in the same place.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Otherwise it goes like this.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Let's try a couple more, Rich. Go.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Ah, that's perfect.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39'Ninja move number two.'
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Time for me to start shooting my animation.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Rich, I think you've got it easy.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Last year I was like face down on the floor, with him on my back.
0:08:48 > 0:08:49'Ninja move number three.'
0:08:49 > 0:08:52We can have him fly all over the skate park.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55We're going to do some fly-bys, try some close-ups, some wides,
0:08:55 > 0:08:57maybe a few following camera angles.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00And the whole time, we're going to try and have some fun.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13We've shot all our frames of the animation.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15So, Rich, are you ready to see it?
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Well, I think it's time to take a look at our mini-masterpiece.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36If I want to get back to full ninja fitness,
0:09:36 > 0:09:39it's time I started a fitness regime.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54RIPPING
0:09:56 > 0:09:58BOINGING
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I didn't exactly exercise a healthy balance there.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08So, back to the drawing board.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Maybe eating more healthily is the key, like this salad.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Mm.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21I think I can make this even better with a face.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion?
0:10:24 > 0:10:25Who are you?
0:10:25 > 0:10:28I am Giuseppe Arcimboldo.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33I was an artist in Italy in the 16th century.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Yeah, but why are you on a lettuce leaf?
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Well, if you'd just "lettuce" explain,
0:10:38 > 0:10:43I am most famous for creating realistic portraits out of food.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Fruits, vegetables and fish, and flowers too.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Here's an example of my work now.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Right. So I could make a salad face place mat
0:10:54 > 0:10:59inspired by you, Arcimboldo. But why do I have to use lettuce?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Just "cos".
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Ha-ha! Just "cos".
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Good lettuce joke. I'm "green" with envy.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Not as green as this!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12I'm going to start making my salad face,
0:11:12 > 0:11:15and I'm going to make a self-portrait.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17I'm going to start with some mushrooms.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19These are going to be my eyes,
0:11:19 > 0:11:21and I've sliced the tops off, so they're flat.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Bits of cucumber will be my irises.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Mm, relaxing.
0:11:30 > 0:11:31Pop them on.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36And then some black olives, halved, will be the pupils.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Boop, boop.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41This carved piece of cucumber will be my nose. Fit in there.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44And I've hollowed out a tomato to be my mouth.
0:11:46 > 0:11:47Going to make some eyelids.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51These are from little shavings of cucumber.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54You can make these with a vegetable peeler.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Going to put a little olive in there
0:12:00 > 0:12:02so it's like I'm going mwah!
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Now I'm going to tear up some cauliflower
0:12:05 > 0:12:08and that's going to become the skin on my face.
0:12:14 > 0:12:18Tearing and twisting the cauliflower breaks it up into nice tiny bits.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28I think I'll do the ears next, and I'm going to use a mushroom.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Pull out the stalk and I'm going to tear it in half.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37And each side is going to become an ear.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41I'm going to do my ninja headband with some halves of strawberry.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Now some hair.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55I'm going to use some yellow pepper.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Now just to give the chin a little bit more definition,
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I'm going to tear up some little strips of lettuce.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Now it's time for my trademark glasses.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22For that, I'm going to use a red onion.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Cut it open. All these lovely rings, they're going to be my lenses.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28So let's just pop out the middle.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32One lens.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I can use one of these larger rings from the onion
0:13:35 > 0:13:38to do the rest of the glasses frames.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41There we go. I'm finishing off my place mat
0:13:41 > 0:13:43with a knife and fork.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Yep, it looks just like me.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48That's the first stage. Now I need to take a photo.
0:13:50 > 0:13:51I'll just print that out.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54Ninja skills.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56But to make it more like a place mat,
0:13:56 > 0:13:58it's going to need a plastic coating.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01I'm putting sticky-backed plastic on
0:14:01 > 0:14:05so if I drop food on the place mat, I can just wipe it off.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09And you need to take your time when you're sticking this on
0:14:09 > 0:14:10cos it can be quite tricky,
0:14:10 > 0:14:12but I don't need to do that cos I'm a ninja. Hi-ya!
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Check that out.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19There you go - the Arcimboldo salad-face place mat,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22and you can make other place mats with similar bite.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24So how about this one?
0:14:24 > 0:14:27With some nice carrot eyelids and sweetcorn teeth.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29TEETH RATTLE
0:14:29 > 0:14:30Or an entire carrot face,
0:14:30 > 0:14:33with a long carrot nose and green lettuce hair.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Or this one, with a carrot-top beard.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Not only does this carrot face look good, but you can eat it, too.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I'm still a bit peckish.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48PHONE RINGS
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Hi, Ricky, it's your mum!
0:14:51 > 0:14:53I hope you're keeping fit.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55Anyway, here's some more art to fit in.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58A ball game with bite!
0:14:58 > 0:14:59THEY CHEER
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Amazing edible eyes!
0:15:02 > 0:15:06And you swap your skateboard for a new set of wheels.
0:15:06 > 0:15:11Ricky, pose as much as you like - it's a workout you need, son.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- BOTH:- Ricky, Ricky, Ricky.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Fat chance of that with these ninja apprentices about.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Ricky, can you make art with a stamp?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22I'm sorry, I'm going to have to return that suggestion to sender.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- BOTH:- Awww.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Ricky, can you make art with a plastic bottle?
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Yeah, all right. I choose you.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- BOTH:- Yay!
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- What's your names? - My name's Lola...
0:15:34 > 0:15:37My name's Bailey.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Nice to meet you, Lola and Bailey. And where are you guys from?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- We're from Bristol. - Oh, yeah. Awesome.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45So I'm going to use a green plastic water bottle
0:15:45 > 0:15:47to make something that lives in the water.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50I'll just go and grab my stuff.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54Some fun tools, some glue, and a plastic water bottle.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57All right, I'm going to start by taking off the lid.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01But I'm going to keep hold of it cos I need that for later.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Then I'm going to draw a line about two-thirds of the way
0:16:04 > 0:16:06down the bottle, where I'm going to cut off.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08- What are you going to make? - What are you going to make?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10I'll give you a clue. It goes snap-snap.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12- Crocodile.- Crocodile!
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Yeah. Crocodile.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17All right. Cut plastic can be quite sharp
0:16:17 > 0:16:21so it would be good to get an adult to help you.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Now, I'm going to draw a line for the mouth,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26cos otherwise, how's the crocodile going to eat,
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- if he hasn't got a mouth?- Yeah!
0:16:29 > 0:16:31OK. I'm just going to cut out the edges now.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33I've just drawn a line round where the mouth's going to be.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38OK, so here's how his mouth's looking.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40He can't catch his prey without eyes or teeth,
0:16:40 > 0:16:43so I'm going to make those out of some white card.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44I'm doing nine big teeth.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49I'm going to do seven small ones.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Let's see your teeth. Can you do a crocodile chomp?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53HE LAUGHS
0:16:53 > 0:16:56You guys are being quite scary.
0:16:56 > 0:16:57Right, so I'm just drawing its eyes,
0:16:57 > 0:16:59cos how's it going to see otherwise, right?
0:16:59 > 0:17:01OK, now I'm going to cut them out.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05Just doing a bit of dentistry here, friendly little gnashers.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Right. Bailey, make your funny face. I'm going to put them on the screen.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Yeah!
0:17:14 > 0:17:15Lola, now you.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Whoa, that is freaky.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Now I'm going to do some little green bumps
0:17:21 > 0:17:23to go along the back of the crocodile.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26I'm going to use some glue stick.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34And I probably don't need that last bump there, so let's chop that off.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Let's put on some eyes so he can see.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Now the cool thing about this crocodile
0:17:39 > 0:17:42is it's going to be a little bit of a game.
0:17:45 > 0:17:46I'm just going to grab some sticky tape.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56HE GROWLS
0:17:56 > 0:17:58I'm going to start sticking the teeth in now,
0:17:58 > 0:18:01and just for ease, you can do it with sticky tape.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Right in the middle.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Nearly finished my dentistry now.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Just need a couple of fillings.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16So what do you think of the crocodile so far?
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- Good.- Good.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21I need something for him to eat.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23I'm going to do that using some orange card,
0:18:23 > 0:18:25a bit of thicker card, to make a fish.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Now I'm just going to poke a hole through the fish
0:18:29 > 0:18:32and I'm going to do that by putting down a bit of modelling clay
0:18:32 > 0:18:34to keep the table nice and safe.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38So I've got a bit of string and I'm going to tie it through the fish.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43The string should be slightly longer than the bottle.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45And remember I told you I kept the lid from earlier?
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- Yeah.- Mm-hmm.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51Well, now I'm going to put the bit of string through the top.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56And screw the lid on over the top of it so it's held in place.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- So you girls ready to see it? BOTH:- Yeah.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03- You ready to see it in action? BOTH:- Yeah.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Here's the game.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08HE GROWLS, THEY CHEER
0:19:08 > 0:19:11First go. What would you guys score it?
0:19:11 > 0:19:13- BOTH:- 10!
0:19:13 > 0:19:15I'll take that. Thanks very much, guys. Bye-bye.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- BOTH:- Bye!
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Don't lose your bottle! Have a go yourself.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Here's a quick art tip of how to draw a muscleman.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28So I'm going to give him a nice chunky head,
0:19:28 > 0:19:31a bit of a chiselled jaw,
0:19:31 > 0:19:34and a mouth, some eyes...
0:19:35 > 0:19:36..bit of hair.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Now for the muscles. I go straight onto the shoulders,
0:19:41 > 0:19:43and they're going to be circular. Big biceps.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48And the arms are going to end with tiny hands,
0:19:48 > 0:19:49just to accentuate the big muscles.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54And the body's going to be a kind of V-shape.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55All the way down to his feet.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59Just highlights I've added here are really big strong broad shoulders.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04Now on his chest, some pectorals, little squiggles for a six-pack.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05I'm also going to give this guy
0:20:05 > 0:20:08a couple of big dumbbells he's easily lifting.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14There you go - a quick art tip.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Why don't you flex your artistic muscles and have a go?
0:20:23 > 0:20:24Ooh!
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Hey, Gav, what are you doing back?
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- Any more doughnuts I can help you with?- No.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36There is something you can help me with, though.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38I need some advice on how I can get fitter.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43I do have this. Healthy Heart, Healthy Art.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Annoying Best Mate Monthly still not arrived, then?
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Ha-ha. Just trying to help. Catch you later.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Cheers. Don't think I'll be needing that.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- Hey, you there. - Not him again! Where's the remote?
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Ever have trouble facing your food?
0:20:59 > 0:21:00Can't face you right now.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Now you can put a face ON your food!
0:21:04 > 0:21:09Delicious. Here's how you make them.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12You'll need some edible rice paper.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18Some pens with edible ink. Tasty.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22Take one of the pens and design yourself some funny eyes.
0:21:22 > 0:21:26You can buy edible ink pens in a craft shop.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30These are smiley eyes.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36These are - ohh - sleepy eyes.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40And these are dizzy eyes.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Cut those out with some scissors.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Careful, it's delicate.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50One set.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57There. Take a plate of food.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Take a bowl of water,
0:21:59 > 0:22:05and lightly dab the back of the eyes to stick them to your food.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07This is a sleepy pepper.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10Poor sleepy pepper, need a sleep?
0:22:10 > 0:22:11"Yes." Ha-ha.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14And a dizzy aubergine.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Hey, look - happy AND tasty!
0:22:24 > 0:22:25Mm.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28I'm not going to get a six-pack by just eating.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Where's that fitness magazine?
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Here it is. But I've spilt paint on it. Oh, no.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38I wanted to check out the ad for fitness training.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41I mean, it looks like a ninja training camp.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45I can't read all of it, cos of the red splodge, but there's an address.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47I'm going to go check it out.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Ninja training camp, here I come.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52That'll get me fit.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Ninja skills.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07They're wearing red,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09but they don't LOOK like ninjas.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13I think I've come to the wrong place.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22- Oh!- Where do you think you're going, recruit?
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Is this not the ninja fitness facility?
0:23:24 > 0:23:27You're at the home of the British Army's Freefall Display Team,
0:23:27 > 0:23:28the Red Devils.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Get in there and get on the floor.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Move! Move, move.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Faster. Faster, faster.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Stand still. - What do you want me to do?
0:23:42 > 0:23:44You, get on that board.
0:23:46 > 0:23:47OK, carry on.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52Why are we doing this?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55We practice this on the ground before we throw you out the plane.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- But I don't want to get thrown out of a plane!- Tough.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01These are fun, aren't they? Can I have one of these?
0:24:01 > 0:24:03No, you can't.
0:24:05 > 0:24:06Your hands are so soft.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11All these moves are making me really dizzy.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14But they have given me an idea for some great art.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17But first, we'd better get our ninja on.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Squad, halt.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Art ninja!
0:24:28 > 0:24:32Do you know how you use your boards to practise your moves?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Well, get a load of my board.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Now, I'm going to need you guys to wheel me around on that cog.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- You up for that?- Too right.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Too right, too left, too right.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Get on with it.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I'm going to try and make a giant pattern.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50So this board is going to go around this big cog on the outside.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52I'm going to take a little seat on it...
0:24:53 > 0:24:56..and with a felt pen I'm going to poke it through one of the holes.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Matt, can you come and give me a push, mate?- All right, Ricky.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02A nice smooth motion all the way round.
0:25:02 > 0:25:03OK.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07Make sure the teeth are going all the way into these little nooks.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11And as we move around, we're going to create lines,
0:25:11 > 0:25:13which will make a pattern.
0:25:13 > 0:25:14How's it looking, Alex?
0:25:14 > 0:25:17Yeah, it's looking good. It's starting to take shape.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Coming to an end...and stop. There we go.
0:25:20 > 0:25:25Right, I'm changing pens, to red, and I'm changing personnel.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29- Gaz.- OK, mate.OOh! - You're up dude. OK.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32I'm going to put the pen into a different hole
0:25:32 > 0:25:34and this will create a different pattern.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41I know you're used to pulling ripcords, mate,
0:25:41 > 0:25:43but mind you don't rip the paper.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50And stop.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51Oh, yeah. Good work, dude.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53- Thanks, mate.- You're free to go.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57Now I'm going to change colour one last time,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59from red to a nice ninja black.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Come on, Matt, you're back in.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02All right, Ricky.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Now, I've called you over cos I think you have true ninja potential.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Oh, thanks, Ricky. - Do you think I could be a Red Devil?
0:26:08 > 0:26:09HE LAUGHS
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Oh, are you being serious?
0:26:11 > 0:26:12Just push me.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15By putting the pen into the hole closest to the middle,
0:26:15 > 0:26:17I will create a totally new pattern.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Go for it. Remember, get it right into those teeth.
0:26:20 > 0:26:21OK.
0:26:27 > 0:26:28Nearly there.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Can you just roll us into the middle, please, mate?
0:26:34 > 0:26:36There we have it.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Revolutionary art.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Brought to life with a little bit of digital magic.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Look at that. Good teamwork, guys.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50You made me jump.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Funny you should say "jump". You ready to do yours?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Cos this parachute's got your name on it.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Let's go.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58HE GULPS
0:26:59 > 0:27:01OWL HOOTS
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Well, that day really flew by.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Today has taught me a valuable Art Ninja lesson -
0:27:08 > 0:27:11if you're making art on a higher level,
0:27:11 > 0:27:15just grab pens, a board, and the nearest Red Devil.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18The funny thing is, I didn't actually get to go up in a plane.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21The weather turned bad. What a shame.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25So, it turned out to be an awesome day, after all.
0:27:25 > 0:27:26PHONE RINGS
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Who's that?
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Hey, Corporal.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36What's that? The weather's good tomorrow?
0:27:36 > 0:27:38I'm all booked in for a jump in the morning?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41Yes, Corporal. OK. I'll see you then.
0:27:43 > 0:27:44Argh!!
