Interesting how the internet enables you to find things previously thought lost or consigned to history...here's a URL to an ad which I directed & designed a while back : http://www.koalatv.com/video03_W.html - it's nice to know it's still out there somewhere...
Some background might be in order - the design was based on some work I did on a proposed short film in collaboration with Gurinder Chadha (Bend it like Beckham & Bride & Prejudice) - we got as far as test animation & a commission from Channel 4 in the UK before they closed their animation dept and 9/11 happened - stylistically it's very similar but more importantly I used a technique developed for the Chadha project which involved combining 2D designs & extrapolating them in 3D, so you could light a scene and move the camera, but which retained the 2D feel of the original designs.
Here's a still from the Chadha project - entitled "Mr & Mrs Singh" and based on her parents - while "Stop Snoring" is quite stylised in terms of the characters, Mr & Mrs was more realistic.
