Gröna Lund Theme Park, ‘The Spider’
Agency: Filmic Animation

Swedish studio Filmic Animation created a full CGI film for Gröna Lund, following a spider dancing through the park as it spins webs to build a new ride. Released ahead of the park’s spring opening and running mainly in cinemas, the film placed strong emphasis on character design. Working with Parks & Resorts, the team struck a balance between cute and slightly creepy, using human-like movement and choreographed leg positions to give the critter a distinctive, almost balletic personality.

These characters are revealed to be a father and daughter, represented by the emojis they use to communicate with each other on their phones. Read More
