Smyths / If The World Were A Toy

"It was clear Freefolk were the right people to help me bring this script to life, they instantly embraced the child-like fun of the job, coming up with brilliant and inventive ideas from day one, rather than doing the usual mechanic's sharp intake of breath when I mentioned things like shooting handheld, or making the transformation moment different for each character. This collaborative approach continued on set and into the offline stage. 'No' did not seem to be a word they were too familiar with, as we continued to experiment with the transformation effects. Once in online, the 3D, animation and compositing teams overdelivered on every frame." - Chris Balmond, Director
