Gas Networks Ireland ‘Progress Naturally’

Hattie directed this lively TV commercial for Gas Networks Ireland. The brief was to create a charming and warm paper world in which to show a changing Irish landscape, powered by natural gas.

To achieve this, Hattie designed and built the characters and landscape in paper before teaming up with Seed Animation to photograph and transform the physical sets into an animated CGI world.
