Tin Can and Plastic helps with Recycling!

Recycling can be tricky business! That’s why Cirkus worked closely with the creative team at Ogilvy & Mather New Zealand to create ‘Tin Can and Plastic’, a duo that will make Auckland think twice before mixing rubbish with recycling for Auckland Council.

This fully 3D animated online film showcases beautifully crafted character animation complemented with alluring texturing and lighting. In our career we’ve had the pleasure to animate walking and talking packs, but one would have to agree that on a recyclable level this spot is great fun!
