When KEMPS needed their prized cow on stage to show off the new milk bottle design... moo over... Gasket Studios helped make the magic happen.
We handled VFX shoot supervision, cow compositing, bottle replacement, cleanup, and final post polish to keep the spot seamless, playful, and believable.
Big love to KEMPS, Betty, director Aly Migliori, sureCAN Productions, Ditch, and Grey Ghost for bringing this one to life.
A great team, a fun idea, and one unforgettable cow.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! Thanks for the advice, the dad jokes (especially the dad jokes), and always being there when it counts. Hope you have an awesome day!
🌮 Who doesn’t love tacos? 🌮
We had a blast partnering with Old El Paso to create a collection of animated taco characters that added even more personality and fun to their campaign. From goofy grins to big reactions, we brought a whole cast of taco characters to life across multiple spots.
It was a fun creative challenge, and the final animations were packed with the kind of energy and charm we love to create. In fact, the campaign was so popular they came back later in the year for a batch of Halloween-themed animations, too!
You can check out those out and the rest of the campaign, on our website: https://bit.ly/3a7tDtU
It’s not every day you get to work on a project that feels both nostalgic and creatively rewarding at the same time.
We’ve worked with Activision on a lot of great projects over the years, but the SpongeBob HeroPants game is definitely one we still love talking about.
We got to create the game’s intro and outro cinematics, which was a pretty surreal experience considering how many of us grew up watching SpongeBob. Getting to spend our days working with these characters (and their ridiculous superhero alter egos) made this one of the most fun projects we’ve ever been a part of.

Summer's here, which means it's the perfect time to talk about ice cream! (Not that there's ever a bad time for ice cream, but we'll take the excuse.)
We teamed up with Stranger Friend and Friendly's Ice Cream to create a collection of mouthwatering 3D sundaes celebrating all the delicious possibilities of building your perfect treat. Using a mix of photogrammetry and traditional 3D modeling, we brought these colorful creations to life in all their sweet, sprinkle-covered glory!

Memorial Day weekend is over, the burgers are long gone, and you glance at your lawn and realize it’s looking like it’s trying to qualify for a nature documentary. Time to mow. ��
We teamed up with Toro to produce a fun, informative animation that reassures customers their Toro products are in good hands from the moment they leave the factory to the moment they arrive at home.

This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their bravery and dedication inspire us every day. 🇺🇸
Wishing everyone a safe and fun holiday weekend!
When Bob and Jenny at All Seasons wanted their brand to feel more personal, we helped put the people behind the business front and center.
Their friendly, relatable personalities became the heart of the campaign, and we brought it to life with simplicity, humor, and a little absurdity. The result was a series of fun spots that helped All Seasons stand out in a crowd of otherwise indistinguishable HVAC companies. ��You can see the rest of the campaign we put together for All Seasons on our website: https://bit.ly/4eUdquD
Yesterday, we shared one of our favorite campaigns starring a photo-realistic talking seal. Today, we’re taking a closer look at the VFX and animation work that brought the character to life.
What started as a fun idea became a detailed creative challenge. Every part of the seal, from its movement to its facial expressions, had to feel believable while blending naturally into the live-action footage.
Creating the character involved CG modeling, animation, compositing, and final VFX work, all focused on making the seal feel like a real part of the world on screen.
Check out our website for a behind-the-scenes look at how the character evolved from concept to final frame. https://bit.ly/3VYbFAH
