In this sequel to the multi award-winning Coca~Cola, Factory, this quirky spot, Delivery Truck, also takes inspiration from the jazz age animations so popular in the 1920′s and 30′s. Put together with Colossal Pictures trademark mixed media approach it uses traditional 2D cel in combo with 3D animation using LFC’s proprietary DIANA to synchronize the two mediums. The same animal characters that starred in, Factory, are on the road again puttering merrily through a colorful cartoon landscape with a mission to deliver Coca-Cola to dry and despondent Dusty Town. The Delivery Truck of the title stalls and loses its color when it runs out of the cola beverage that nourishes the treadmill-running mouse powering the truck. No problem … a fresh new bottle of ice-cold Coca-Cola appears and a refreshing sip of Coke inspires the mouse to run all the faster as they go on their merry way.

Made in Softimage, Mental Ray and DIANA for the now defunct animation powerhouse, Colossal Pictures. Agency – Creative Edge for Coca~Cola.
