The Ambassadors’ crew in Amsterdam handled the character design, VFX, post, audio and music in this latest heartwarmer for Staatsloterij, the Netherlands’ largest lottery known for its life-changing New Year’s Eve jackpots.
From Ambassadors: “While 30 million in the bank might just create enough happiness in itself, this campaign focuses on the joy that comes from helping one another.
“There was a lot at stake with crafting our CG hedgehog. But with a dedicated VFX and 3D team working on this alongside animators and the whole team for the final polish, we’re happy with the lifelike joy that Freddie brings to the screen.”
