GEICO COMMERCIAL PARODY

November 3th 2020

Did you know that 16 minutes could save you 16% or more on... This is a parody of the Geico famous commercial that have been releasing for more than 10 years, and my take on how would a regular jumpy person would react when they are caught by surprised. It doesn't matter if you are just saying hi or you are a talking magical animal, it's never a good idea to jump scare random people. I guess that's today's lesson kinds. Now go annoy your mother.

The making of this video was really simple. We shoot it on my former roommate’s colorful wall with just a LED panel as an extra light.

I was looking forward to make or find an accurate 3d representation of the green gecko everybody knows. Instead, I found this the 3d models of a tiger gecko online. I am not really happy to make 3d models from scratch, so you know the rest of the story.
