Description

A human cannon ball is shot clear through a circus tent and across miles of hilly terrain. Eventually, he crashes into an office building, where he takes out a bullying boss—leaving the man's Orangina-animal underlings speechless. A statistic then appears on screen: "Orangina drinkers attacked by the human cannon ball: 0%.

Execution

3 films had been shot in 3 days mixing technics, stunt, CGI, animatronic, SFX, prosthetic…A massive production like this can't be improvised however one of the main challenges was to keep up with the creative changes on set. The agency made the script permanently changed. For instance, the helicopter shot wasn't planned nor budgeted. For budget matter, the film was supposed to be shot in south Africa but we ended up in L.A for the sake of quality. Indeed, all the technics and technicians needed for the good progress of the film were in L.A : Creative Character Engineering for the prosthetics ( Batman, Wanderlust, Call of Duty…) and Quantum Creation FX for the animatronics (Tron, MIB, The hunger Games and more).
