Looking in, Christmas night

Video campaign for The Danish Society for Nature Conservation. The scene is a mix of 2D and 3D elements, working in the cross section of Photoshop and Unity. Created with Danish animation studio Nørlum.

The GIF comes from a scene where the animals have gathered in front of a window, looking in on the cozy Christmas party that they aren't a part of. The light is exaggerated to emphasise the feeling over realism.

The GIF was made seamless by cutting the clip in half, moving the front and end frames to the middle and creating a cross dissolve between them. The transition is nearly impossible to spot, why it works well for places like Facebook video covers (where the client wanted it to run).
