New Honda Accord Crosstour ads keep popping up all over that TV gadget in my living room. Crazy contraption! Just like the one we featured back in November of ’09, this one was produced by Elastic, with help from a52. RPA was the ad agency on this new spot titled Snow Trip.

Santa Monica-based VFX studio a52 added the crisp-looking animation to this short film for Lego. It’s titled CL!CK, and it hypes Lego’s new legoclick.com site. The agency leading the effort was Pereira & O’Dell and production was headed-up by direcor Blue Source for MJZ.

Santa Monica-based Elastic brought this jazzy spot for Honda to life, helping promote their new Accord Crosstour. Neighboring studio a52 was aboard the project, titled Instruments, adding VFX and Max Ulichney served as the CG lead. The agency RPA led the charge.

Newport Beach Film Festival just wrapped up the 2009 event out in Orange County, California. The opening title sequence this year’s festival, which marries many of the popular major studio title sequences, was directed by Andy Hall from Elastic and animated at a52 by 3D artists Adam Newman, Paulo de Almada and Christopher Janney. The agency on the project was RPA. The sequence is titled Tenth of a Century, as it’s the 10th year of the festival.
