THREE - MAKE IT RIGHT - DANIEL WOLFE
Weiden & Kennedy have a new spot for Three and it’s directed by Somesuch’s Daniel Wolfe.This one isn’t so much "Catch me daddy", it’s more "Daddy I’m a muppet and I’m off to the city to find my fame and fortune”.
Our hero is Jackson who looks and acts like the love child of Animal and Brian Harvey with added soul. We did the VFX here at TBA with Luke Todd boshing it out as supervisor.
It’s a really fun advert that harks back and references lots of pop culture and comedy tropes. It leaves us with a warm fuzzy glow in our bellies and makes us wish Jim Henson had gone into the mobile telephony industry.
Time Based Arts has been quietly establishing its reputation as a stellar visual effects company for the last four years. Based in Shoreditch, East London it has gone about building a distinctive and creative body of work more commonly associated with the biggest facilities in Soho.
The company was formed by Flame artists Mike Skrgatic and James Allen making the setup 100% artist owned and run. James and Mike met at the Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in Dundee in 1997, before moving to London and continuing on to successful careers in some of the industry's leading post facilities.
