A blend of stop frame, 3D animation, and illustrated elements form the base of this brand commercial for the agricultural co-orporation, GWK. Miniature sets were animated and filmed against blue screen. The spot was directed by Am I Collective and Darren Macpherson and Lung animation created the beautifully lit 3D characters. My friend Jannes Hendrikz and I teamed up as compositors and were tasked to build the final picture.
