Commissioned by RKCR/Y&R, Jelly London’s in-house animation team The Kitchen produced a series of animations to promote M&S’ latest Shwopping campaign to raise money for Oxfam. Watch the film here.
Featuring Ab Fab star and Oxfam ambassador, Joanna Lumley, the online campaign invites customers to leave their old and unwanted clothes at Marks and Spencer stores to be resold or recycled by Oxfam.
“Initially
we produced a thumbnail storyboard to create a timing animatic to work alongside
the brilliant VO from Joanna Lumley. Our next stage was to begin drawing out
the cel animation using flash. This gave us the power to sketch out the morphs
and experiment with how the film flowed, and see how each scene would
transition to the next. Once the sketched version of the animation was approved
by the client we took it into Photoshop.”
