KIA - The KIA Sportage - Inspires Attention
Glassworks
In this commercial for KIA, the VFX team brings to life the story of a lonely firefly finding friendship. Working with director Lee Ford, Glassworks used a combination of character animation and FX simulation to portray how the hero, and later several hundred more fireflies, become transfixed by the KIA Sportage. A vast all-round VFX effort topped off by Jonny Thorpe's evocative colour grading.
