Cineplex "Holidays" - 2D Animated Spot

The Who:

Cineplex's Executive Producers, Rob Lazar & Gurbani Marwah approached us to create an animated holiday spot to play at the front of movies in their theatres during the winter holidays. They gave us the brief and script (although the spot is dialogue free) and we came up with the look, art direction and story. We then collaborated with the fine folks at Blame Your Brother  who  tackled the animation and FX portions . It was a fun project to work on and kept everyone's spirits up during the holiday season.
