Quaker Canada recently came to us for two 15 second commercials (in English and French) that showcase all the premium ingredients in their new Harvest Bars.

To top off a very busy year at La Di Da Films, we got the opportunity to create a holiday campaign of television commercials for Nabisco! As part of larger sweepstakes and promotional effort celebrating Nabisco’s 115 Year Anniversary, we created a series of high quality stop-motion recipe videos for some of their most popular products - Oreo, HoneyMaid, Triscuit, Nilla, and Ritz Crackers. The videos used stop-motion to quickly show people at home how to make each of these delicious signature recipes. The campaign turned out to be a huge success, with the brands airing the ads on national television all season long and simultaneously promoting the videos across all their social media platforms. The ads were aired during Hairspray Live on NBC as well as regularly on Hallmark and ABC. We’re extremely proud of our work on this campaign and hope to continue our great relationship with Nabisco on more projects in the future!

In addition to the elaborate series of holiday recipe videos we created this season for Nabisco US, we got asked to create one more for Cadbury Canada! We turned their delicious recipe “Rocky Road Bars” into an adorable Christmas themed recipe video, in which we show each step of how to make the dessert through stop-motion animation and on-screen text. The end result was a fantastic video that Cadbury promoted on Youtube and Facebook. The video currently has over 2 Million views on Youtube alone!

We recently created two stop-motion videos that showcase the all new Doritos Mix flavors (Taco Explosion and Cheese Explosion). The bags were each placed on complimentary backdrop colors and animated by hand to explode into the variety of flavors included in the bags. We used this opportunity as a fun way to experiment with animating chips and try out a tongue and cheek style! [embed]https://vimeo.com/196645497[/embed] [embed]https://vimeo.com/196646417[/embed]...

This summer we were inspired to create a series of stop-motion videos that feature some of our favorite beauty and fashion products in creative ways! By using simple props such as flowers, we were able to bring classic fragrances like Chanel No.5, Guerlain, and Marc Jacobs Daisy to life in an elegant and visually enticing style. We also created short videos that showcased adorable outfits, accessories, and beauty products and paired them with colorful solid backdrops.

We recently got the opportunity to work with General Mills and create a series of 4 stop-motion videos that introduce the new flavors of Gluten-Free Cheerios! The concept was to bring each flavor to life with vivid colors and animate the cereal and boxes by hand. We also integrated a lettering technique, in which we spelled out computer generated text by hand with hundreds of Cheerios in order to convey important brand messaging. The final result were 4 unique videos that are all tied together in an eye-catching campaign! The videos were promoted on Cheerios Youtube channel and Facebook page.
