As they sneak past a few questionable character such as a Russian Guard named Takturov, a few bears, they become thrilled when they see Priceline Express Deals come to the rescue.
Mill LA had a great time working on these entertaining Priceline spots that continue to tell the Negotiator's story of adventure paired with being able to pic your price for hotel deals.
"From a VFX standpoint, we had a very short turnaround time to do the shots with lip-synced breath in the cold air," says Mill LA Junior FX artist, Hartwell Durfor. "Using Houdini's CHOP system we were able to control our emission animation by leveraing the actor's audio; once the timing and strengths of the breaths were established, we could focus on shots that needed more specific art direction."
