With global food delivery wars amplified by the pandemic lockdown, McCann recruits Snoop Dogg and his entourage (including Riff Raff director François Rousselet and the MPC VFX team) to fortify Just Eat’s new campaign.
MPC VFX supervisor Fabian Frank: “We had fun creating a stack of CG waffles covered in chocolate sauce for Snoop to perform on. We started with a 3D scan and a texture shoot of a real waffle, to achieve the oversized look we altered some of the textures and surface by sculpting extra detail.”
MPC creative director Alex Lovejoy: “The ad was delivered almost entirely remotely through lockdowns across our London, Bangalore, and LA teams, with agency and director reviews using Clear View technology on Flame.”
