COLD HARD FLASH
Flash Empowers

Hornet Inc’s directing duo Dan & Jason have just delivered a new spot for PPL Electric Utilities. The ad, titled Birds, was drawn in Flash, however the team used the software as an ink and paint tool, animating ‘traditionally’ as you’ll see below. The line work was also run through a texture mask to give it a pencil line quality. The animation on the spot was handled by Mike Luzzi and Mark Pecoraro.
