Santander’s Piggy Returns in “The Marathon” The CG creature crew at Framestore reteam with Rattling Stick director Daniel Kleinman and Arnold Worldwide to create the sophomore adventure for Santander’s porcine hero (watch the first Piggy epic here).
Chris Redding, VFX/2D supervisor at Framestore: “Arnold really wanted to create a new character design that was different from but reminiscent of the piggy bank from the first commercial. The logic was that every person has their own version of Piggy, in the same way everyone would have a different dog.
“We used a rigid stand-in model for the first Piggy commercial but because he needed to be so much more mobile this time and changed size from shot to shot, [we used puppets] to have a way of capturing great on-set reference.
“The character needed to run the entire time, so we redesigned the pig from scratch to allow for its extended mobility. The rigging and modeling teams built what was as close to an anatomically feasible skeleton as possible and then buried it under the caricatured look of the embellished piggy bank.
“The variation in scale and environments meant we needed to be able to adapt the groom set up so, throughout the commercial, the hair on the main character also grew. It also needed to be adapted in each shot to account for how wet he was or how sweaty he got in any particular scene”
VFX supervisor Tim Jenkinson: “The most important thing was to make the character appealing and cute. We spent a lot of time reworking and finessing the features of the pig as even the smallest change in the shape or size of the snout, eyes, brows or cheeks had a huge impact on its character.”
