Produced by Nexus Productions
Animation:- Stuart Doig, Eoin Clarke (I think) and Paul Sorenson did a little too
Agency – Can’t remember but they’re on Golden Square and it was the two Daves as creatives.
VO – Rob Brydon
We were asked to make a commercial using only the footage that they had shot for a previous advert (one of those flashy nature ones) and the two Daves had the idea of making a tour of the fictitious Anchor Butter Factory.
Annoyingly one of the later shots where one of the Daves thought it would be good to show them going through the time-lapse footage and thus growing stubble) didn’t work at all well and I think was subsequentally re-done on post.
They also re-voiced it with Tom Baker. Xander Armstrong actually did the original VO which was ace but never got to screen.
Also quite funny seeing an ad done in the old 4×3 aspect ratio. Ahhh them were the days.
And here’s the second one we did (a short 10 second thing), now with Tom Baker voicing. Tom Baker is absolutely bonkers, and very lovely to boot.
