Description:

A classic story of the power of giving at Christmas. Who is the least thought of person at Christmas? The Easter Bunny. The story is simple, an A to B journey with a powerful crescendo. What we looked to introduce was a level of intimacy. Relatable moments of highs and lows. The animation needed nuanced contrast between the jovial Santa and melancholic Easter Bunny. Varied pacing in the edit and strategic framing supported the heightened emotions of the characters. The 3D from the characters and worlds were intentionally stylised, a fantastical lens to a Christmas story.
