    Last Word

  • Blue Sky Studios

Description:


    Blue Sky modeled, lit, and animated a computer-generated Braun Shaver that shaves off the spot’s copy as it is read by the announcer. The computer-generated scenes are sandwiched between live-action shots of a hand holding a real shaver at the head and tail of the spot. The result is a spot where the viewer cannot tell that the CGI shaver is not real.
