Christmas Crackers

Animated Interstitials for Sky Kids

Computer Animation

Just a few of the colourful slapstick comedy interstitials we made for Sky Kids.

Quirky festive characters share crackers full of silly surprises. Unexpected cracker contents create offbeat situations and hilarious character reactions.

Technique

Real Sets, CG Animation & Stop Motion on Glass

The sets for Christmas Crackers were sculpted, by hand out of Plasticine. These were then filmed using our motion control system. The real-world lighting setup was then recreated digitally allowing us to seamlessly integrate our computer animated characters. Finishing final touches were then animated in plasticine on glass before everything was composited together.
