This is a spot I just finished directing for Vodafone Ireland. Grey agency's creative director Simon Brotherson approached me with this idea that "great surprises make a great Christmas". Here is the final result. Character designs were made by super talented Sanna annukka and for the first time transformed into CG!

Enjoy!

Here is the 2d animatic made by talented Adam Hodgson based on a great storyboard by Richard Phelan.
