Luma was recently approached by production company Riverstone Films and Y&R Johannesburg to create a human-sized snail for a new Danone Yogi Sip commercial. The snail – a visual metaphor for the plummeting energy levels experienced during the mid-afternoon slump – was brought to life using a unique combination of CG and puppeteering.
The creature effects were created by veteran puppet-maker and animatronic whiz, Roger Titley and Luma completed the illusion using 3D animation.
