Belgian National Lottery TVC
We are honoured to have worked with Blinkink directors Luca and Sinem on this charming, heart-warming Christmassy animated tale. The advert features a young girl, an optimistic snowman, and a flurry of woodland creatures that help an old man’s wishes to come true.
We modelled and animated all of the characters and environments, adding 2D painted textures in a blend of 3D and 2D to create the magically crafted and illustrated feel.
