Project:

Bud Light Summer Citrus Campaign

Type:

Recent, Live Action

We loved partnering with Wieden+Kennedy for the second summer in a row to bring the colorful, poppy world of Bud Light citrus flavors to life. This year the campaign expanded on the floating fruit peels fun! We made octopus-armed sand sculptures, a party of pool floats, and a killer miniature beach scene (complete with tiny towels)!

"Our compositing team ended up with 21,967 frames (that works out to 15 minutes) of beer bottles, peels and wedges to enhance, to clean-up, and to roto. The team was, as always, a bunch of champs."

Process

"The joy on this job was shooting everything practically. From puppeteering five pool floats, to sourcing vintage 70's Barbie props, and using a leaf blower on sand sculptures, we were able to capture the magic in-camera, without CG."
