The Hot Seat: Superfad and Athletico Take Shakira on a Wild, Animated Journey with Popular Auto Maker

Superfad has just produced a dazzling animated SEAT commercial for agency Atletico that combines a myriad of animation styles and techniques with live action, visual effects and architectural design. At the center of the eye-popping spot is international superstar Shakira who is about to embark on a European tour, which is sponsored by SEAT.

"This job encompasses every bit of animation and live action knowledge we have amassed over the years," comments Superfad Creative Director Adam Parry.  "The clients and the agency Atletico have been a real dream to work with and Shakira had to take a leap of faith and trust us to take her on this fantastic visual journey. We've had a blast every step of the way."

2D motion graphics & graffiti design, live action with dancers and glitter explosions, 8 bit pixel style animation, full 3D city build & animation and a stop frame animation shoot mixed with 3D characters are all part of the otherworldly commercial. The project took about eight weeks to produce and can be seen throughout Europe.



The spot and brand affiliation link the young, sporty image of SEAT with the musical talent of Shakira, who is currently enjoying great success with her latest album "She Wolf." Shakira - Good Stuff

So, what could possibly be better than all that has come before? Plenty. Read More
Content Insider #148 - The iGen
 NO...Doesn't have a thing to do with "that" smartphone...or "that" store...or "that" tablet. It's the next generation. Kids and we mean little kids.

They expect their photos, their video, their music, their stuff immediately when/where/how they want it. Read More
