Notes about the 3D Modeling of the Giant (by Happy Camper)

We wanted the giant to be huge and incredibly strong, but never threatening or scary.

We experimented a lot with the shape of the body to convey exactly that. At the same time we were very mindful not to make the character too comical or childish, as the giant has to be a trustworthy spokesperson for RWE.

Above you see the work of Mattias Forström, who developed the giant through the different stages.

One Response to “Environmentally Friendly Giant”

    Hmmm… quite cute, but the energy density of the sources shown hardly qualifies as “giant.” Depicting a city powered by a Ferris wheel in a river is very misleading, but I guess that overall this ad is good enough to fool the general public. Nice animation, too.
