Another great collaboration with Silverspoon Animation. Doritos was ready to release their “Flamin Hot” mascot, Sparky, into the world and needed a series of animations to do it. First Sparky was designed, 3D modeled and rigged. Meanwhile previsualization was comprised in C4D. Once locked, it was sent to an XR set where some shots required live action sets placed in front of an XR wall showcasing full custom backgrounds created in Unreal Engine. Matching cameras, that footage was then sent back to the animation team to composite together with the digital camera moves, character animations from Maya and of course the fully CG hero, the pack. This one was a wild ride.
We love wild rides.
