Description:
Computer graphics director Pierre Coffin’s campaign for communications equipment company, Vizzavi, features various animals in amusing situations. Passion Pictures teamed up with Parisian animation company McGuff Ligne, where Pierre and the team created the creatures using Symbor, composited with Trukor, and rendered with MGLR: all McGuff Ligne’s in-house developed software programs. In Chicken Smiles, a joke is passed between chickens everywhere via their mobile phones, causing much giggling.
