United Airlines "The Interview"

2003, Acme Filmworks

Painting - Joel Parod

Animation - Claire Armstrong Parod

Directors - Wendy Tilby and Amanda Forbis

 

I was honored to paint many scenes with award winning directors, Amanda Forbis and Wendy Tilby, on one of their signature style hand painted commercials. Each frame is an oil painting on Flash animation or live-action print outs. It was nice to see this spot air for several years at the ending of the Academy Awards since United Airlines was one of the sponsors.

 

In 2004 it took home the Annie Award for Best Animated Commercial.
