I did some checking and I believe Piranha Bar run with Softimage, Max, Vray, 
and also some Flame.

 Hi guys, since its friday have you seen this?   https://vimeo.com/46478843
 Is this what the ex Softimage devs moved over to Maya for - because 
 it can't do this yet? ;)





 interesting in the comments the credits are given to Maya and some third
 party plugins...did some research and it looks like it was made by some
 guys at a place called Piranha Bar who use 8 seats of Softimage  
 3Dsmax - not a Maya in the house





   /shakes fist at the world for promoting further Softimage ignorance 
 :)



 have a great Friday folks

Well, often working with agencies here. You have no idea (maybe) how 
these guys are thirsty of fresh concept. It's behance, iso50, 
butdoesitfloat, etc. all the day.

I agree, this one is at the limit...
But I'm so happy it is Sofimage :)

Really cool work,

But i couldn't help noticing the similarities between the Cadbury ad, 
and this: http://vimeo.com/37967381

I'm not shouting ripoff...but it does feel a bit too close for my taste.

Cheers

Motion capture combined with particle F/X is hardly a new thing. Am I just
imagining things or have people been doing animations like both of them for
many years?

I just don't think the Quayola work can really be pointed at as being
something that was never done before and that no one previously had
explored that same concept.

Credit should be given properly however, on that we all agree. Not
surprising considering it was posted by the agency and not the studio that
actually did the work.
