Description:


    Animation director Russell Brooke created a computer-animated spot for the Clorox laundry bleach brand that uses various paper and fabric textures to create a world like a children’s storybook. On a busy city street, a giant knitted turtle sneezes, the force of which triggers an extraordinary chain of events.A skateboarding dog crashes into a rocket, which takes off leaving the spaceman pilot behind. The rocket crash-lands nearby, causing a lorry driver to swerve and shed his load of coloured balls, which tumble down a hill. One of the balls lands in a puddle of mud, which splashes all over a little boy who is playing football.Cut to a live-action boy arriving back at home wearing his dirty white shirt.

    “And that’s how my shirt got dirty, Mommy,” he says.
