Spam - Figgy Pudding

By invitation of BBDO Minneapolis, I was commissioned to create this Christmas Spot for the world's beloved brand, Spam.

Inspired by a very old and classic Christmas movie, to bring people's affective memory to life, this project aimed to make a full CGI spot that looked like a stop-motion puppet.

-    Lookdev   -
The bigger challenge on a project like this is to work with multiple software and build a pipe that is strong and reliable enough to handle the expectations. All characters were modeled in Zbrush. Then rigged and animated in Maya to receive the final lookdev and hair in Cinema 4D, using Redshift and Substance Painter. The snow was simulated using x-particles.
