Leading the pitching process with Nexus Productions London, Mighty Nice shone through to secure a couple of TVC’s for the huge social games company – King.



The brief from agency Albion London was to exploit the differences in each of the games. This led us to develop a natural crafted look for Farm Heroes, creating physical miniature builds for the environments. These were then digitised and brought into the 3D software to build the individual scenes. An effective execution particularly for foreground elements. It’s hard to believe that the houses, trees, and even the dirt roads and tractor are not filmed in camera.



The character animation of each individual Cropsie , simulation of the Cropsie Mass and it’s high intensity action chase scenes were rewarding challenges to overcome.



We are really proud of this spot and the talented crew who worked on it.
