The Long Haul
New promotional video from the awesome Sylvain Dumais. I've watched it a few times and there is A LOT going on in this stop-motion clip but its made so seamlessly that you don't realize it. Great job by all on this!
Print and motion commit to a long life together in a movie made from 4000 great pictures and...
3 x pimped out stills cameras
2000 square feet of studio
11 x Obama lovers
2 x Producers with whips
450 kg of props
360 degrees of dolly track
15 hours of makeup
1 x clip on rat tail
2 x actors standing still for 22 hrs
1 x grown woman wearing a child sized dragon outfit
1 x 72 hr work work day
1 x "Bapapa" song
While on set a great idea was formed. Dumais Studio and Full Serve Productions were to come together to work on a creative.
Sylvain had the great idea of trying to show the elements of a production come together in a stop motion piece. But we needed a story. Several meetings and hundred of emails later, The Long Haul was hatched.
The concept was to show the stages of an evolving relationship and the passing of trends, focusing on sending a message that,in the end, a good relationship lasts. The pivotal point was to communicate our interest in developing long standing relationships with our clients and that weʼre not just a flash in the pan.

Wonderful! Simply amazing work. You really get the point across, that the relationships you build are something meaningful and long lasting. The production process is really well shown in the video. A winning combination, if I may say! Congratulations :)
