The Daily Mirror - "Maps"

Client: dlkw / lowe

This 20 second TVC for the Daily Mirror depicts a father and son exploring a map of their local area. It was developed to coincide with The Daily Mirror's offer of a free map of your area from days gone by.

Penny Royal provided all the Animation for this ad. The commercial involved combining both live action, 2D and 3D Animation. 

Chiquita - "Less is More!"

Client: Ogilvy

We produced all the animation and VFX for this Chiquita tv commercial. The most challenging shot was the pouring shot,  this achieved with two plates, one of the stream of smoothie and another of the smoothie bottle apparently emptying, which was shot in reverse to avoid residue. All of the sound design and music for the “Less is More” ad were created by us in-house. 

Chiquita - "Acerola Berries"

Client: Ogilvy

We did all the post production on this stop motion project for Chiquita. The sequence was shot in reverse, so the oranges begin on the floor and find their way back to the log. We also solved what has been a significant dilemma for smoothie ads in the past - the dreaded blend. Instead of employing expensive equipment, we used two plates, one a bottle of smoothies and the other a bottle of fruit. Lay one over the other and, once animated, the fruit appears to magically blend in the bottle.

Nenolen

Client: Devilfish Creative

We were commissioned by Devilfish to composite and grade these stunning Channel Idents for Scandinavian TV Channel Nenolen. 

Utilising the 360 capabilities of the Ladybug camera, we were supplied raw footage which we then compisited and graded. Shot on location around the UK as a result of our grey weather it even involved some sky replacement, which our talented VFX artists were more than capable of handling, no problem!

Virgin Media Shorts 2008

Client: ddb london

Penny Royal did all the post for this challenging project. From Keying to CG and all the final compositing. The 3D elements were modeled in XSI and Lightwave and the end result is a diverse mixture of Live-Action, 2½D and CG sequences.

Innocent Smoothies "Big Recipe Felicity"

Client: Innocent

We did all the post production to two Innocent Smoothie commercials reflecting the honesty and simplicity of the brand. Filmed in a green screen studio to create the rolling hills, shooting the stop-frame stills on a Canon 5D. Working with Dan Germain and Richard Reed from Innocent was a pleasure, as was designing the sound for the ad - most of which came out of our sound designer’s mouth.
