Toyota launched the new Vitz with a stunning short film
that has already gone viral in Japan.
Creative agency Tugboat and Director Hideyuki Tanaka came up
with a genius way to subvert the
traditional car advert format, taking inspiration from VFX breakdown reels for previous commercials by Australian
company, Alt.vfx.
In the film, shot with production company Tohokushinsha, a young director
details his idea for an adventurous new Vitz campaign to a senior creative
director. As the action he describes plays out on screen, the older, more
experienced creative director interjects with a series of more suitable ideas,
causing the action to reverse and play out again in a different way.
Using a series of wipes, rewinds, and traditional VFX breakdown techniques,
the audience gets to see behind the scenes of the fictional story, playing out in real time before their eyes.
“We have worked with Tugboat and Tanaka on several great projects in the
past few years, and they have been greatly inspired by the breakdown’s we
produced to show the work behind the finished ads,” said Alt’s Executive
Producer Takeshi Takada. “This new spot takes that idea and creates something entirely fresh and exciting for the Toyota brand.”

Shot on location in Budapest, the
new campaign takes the excitement of the traditional heist movie and turns it on its head, bringing the discussions of the
key creatives into the story in a tongue-in-cheek way that even allowed Alt’s
artists to approach the visual effects with a greater degree of flexibility, as VFX
Supervisor Jason Hawkins testifies.
“On one of the shoot days it rained in Budapest, but because of the nature of
the ad

in that the scenario was constantly changing and evolving as the
creative work out how to tell the story

the idea of it switching from a rainy
day to sunny day was written into the final script.”
Alt created a number of CG cars to cope with the different scenarios as the Vitz
speeds through the crowded streets of Budapest.
Using a variety of tools
including Nuke, Houdini and Maya, the team created a host of digital set
extensions, animations and CG stunts to allow the action to take place.
