So who is Team Clockwork? What do they do/love/see/eat? Surely it’s not all work and no funzies?

Well, a whip around the office garnered a cool collection of happy snaps from vacations and staycations, parties and feel good days. It appears that we are rockin the fun things, invigorated by the scary things and in love with the simple things in life.

With so many pics to choose from, we will have to make this a regular feature!

Star Wars Fighter Pods: Micro Heroes. Mega Battles!

High drama from Darth Vader and intense fighting of Empire vs Republic! It’s action satisfaction on a miniature scale! Kudos to the guys for figuring out how to rig and animate those mini legs and chunky feet!

Hasbro’s Star Wars Micro Heroes are unleashed in this series of 5 webisodes.

In the first of a series of 5 podcasts, Chewie and C-3PO set up the ultimate practical joke on the ever serious Boba Fett. Whether you like Star Wars or not, you have to admit … that’s funny in any language :)

Play-Doh

The fun is in the Play-Doh! Doh-doh-doh-doh!

For the launch of Play-Doh’s Swirling Shake Shoppe toy we had to conceptualise and create a candy land made of Play-Doh and of course, the adorable Doh Doh characters that live there. Our team came up with several character options, a few environment ideas and a stylised toy design. The final spot is only 5”, but we are pretty sure you will be seeing more of these guys in the future …

Play-Doh Shake Shoppe Spot – Director’s Cut

Our 3D pitch for the project was inspired by the Toy Story bedroom – the perfect setting for the Doh Doh’s gang to come alive and get up to mischief. As usual, we were on a tight deadline for this pitch, from start to finish – 5 days, and a whole lot of coffee :)
