Fighting your food instincts and not having that delicious dessert is a thing of the past. In a hilarious way Saatchi & Saatchi and Mill+ make great white sharks relatable in Fiber One's ‘Don’t Fight Your Instincts’. When it comes to food everyone has one thing in common: the urge to have more.
Led by Mill+ Director Steve Beck, the Mill+ team created this fully CG underwater scene, along with two sharks trying to snack less. The challenge was to create believable moving bodies while simultaneously applying an exaggerated personality and humor to the animation. Steve explains, 'We worked closely with the team at Saatchi & Saatchi to bring the vision to life. We wanted to re-create the presence of real life large sharks and the weight of the water around them, even though they act like an old married couple with human characteristics. The final result speaks for itself, I laugh again every time I see it, the characters are so entertaining!'
Don’t fight your killer instincts, go on, have your cake and eat it too!
