Take a look at how director Joe Bluhm, the Tonic DNA crew in Montreal, and Leo Burnett Toronto created this CG heartwarmer for Campbell’s that delivers a hopeful message through the worldview of a firefly.
Tonic DNA: “Our animation for Campbell’s is full of contrasts between sadness and cheer, to emphasize the warmth that is central to the brand. The firefly’s warm light dims when she feels disappointed with the cold world around her, but her positivity is reignited when she sees a mother and son share a heartwarming moment over a homecooked meal.
“The character designs also strike a balance between appeal and emotion, drawing the viewers to their charming warmth, while also delivering the emotional impact contained in the script.”
