DDB Chicago together with Wayne McClammy of Hungry Man and The Mill teamed up on 'Web' the latest spot for Skittles. Never ceasing to provide a fun, entertaining and satirical tone, we are introduced to Billy and his newfound friend… a giant talking spider.

Happily Ever After
The Mill's Steve Cokonis, lead 2D artist tell us how he managed to bring out the Halloween feel in the spot: "First we accentuated the spider puppet performance by adding leg movement. From there we had the opportunity to create a giant spider web matte painting by mustering part of the web that was built on set and continuing to paint the rest digitally."
In order to lock in that Halloween ambiance, Steve created fog particles to help accentuate the spooky yet mystical look of the spot.
At the end, who gets the treat and who ends up being tricked?
