Here, It’s Always a “Bones Day”

Global creative studio LOBO and creative agency HUGE make food fun for dogs (and a delight for dog-loving commercial watchers) in the broadcast and digital Canidae dog food campaign “A World of Goodness for Pets and our Planet”. 

Traversing a world of goodness crafted by LOBO, the feature pug delights in its personal wonderland with the revamped dog food, complete with all the larger-than-(dog)-life turf, slippers and bones it can behold. The spot follows Canidae’s core messaging initiative: the company has committed to the idea that a pet food company should deliver goodness to pets, people, and the planet.

 

About LOBO

We are Lobo, a creative studio dedicated to moving images. Our expertise covers a broad range of media techniques, like 2D animation, stop motion, 3D, VFX and live action. Ground in state-of-the-art facilities and an experienced team of directors, our studio is ready to turn your stories into films.

Founded in 1994 by Nando Cohen and Mateus de Paula Santos while they were still in college, Lobo immediately stood out for its bold style and innovative visual language. We soon grew into one of the major players among the top ad agencies, TV networks and film studios in Brazil. It wasn’t long before we expanded our structure all across Latin America, Europe and the USA, raking in plenty of awards along the way from institutions like D&AD, The One Show, Cannes Lions and the Art Directors Club, to name a few.

To make our North American ties even stronger, we opened a satellite office in NYC under the Creative Direction of Guilherme Marcondes, a member of the original Lobo roster who is now back into the fold after a successful solo run in the US that included work for clients such as British Gas, Google, Hyundai, Audi and Pepsi. In 2016, Lobo continued its North American growth with the addition of Luis Ribeiro as Executive Producer, bringing on board his over two decades of experience leading the bicoastal operations of some of the country’s top post production shops.
