Animation Company ROWDY Crafts Claymation Comedy ‘Super Thieves’ for VanMoof

Animation wizards ROWDY have created the latest promotional film for the Dutch biking brand VanMoof, titled ‘Super Thieves’. Directed by animation guru Tobias Fouracre at Clapham Road Studios, the stop motion Claymation film is filled with comedic one liners and strong performances from three individuals who hold themselves in high esteem when it comes to the art of being a thief.

Unluckily for them, their experience and expertise, which they candidly recall in great detail, is no match for a highly secured VanMoof bike. The group of overly confident thieves include a young cyber security specialist and hacker, a glamourous international art thief, and a competition winning master lock picker. We quickly learn that even those with a strong CV in the science of stealing have a ceiling when it comes to grabbing what isn’t rightfully theirs. Now knowing what we know about the security of owning a VanMoof bike, we’d like to see them try. No, really. They’re very entertaining. 

Director Tobias Fouracre is an animation veteran and stop motion specialist, having worked on films such as Fantastic Mr Fox, The Corpse Bride and more, along with his role as animation supervisor on The Isle of Dogs.
