Description:


    For this spot, the task was to create a 3D beach ball in the image of the Pepsi “globe” logo. The ball had to look photorealistic and natural, as if a global beach ball game was actually taking place. Crowds and locations were complete in camera, but a few crowd scenes were built with 3D crowd simulations.

Software:
