About

 

This is the video premier of the mascots for the UFEA football championship 2008 – Trix & Flix. The track features Shaggy and was the first official mascot song, soon to be followed up be the single Feel the rush (also a Kaktus production).

 

It’s an all animated piece to present the mascots in their true environment – the Swiss/Austrian alps and the Stadium pitches of the Championship. Kaktus did all production from storyline to the last rendered frame and post production. It’s a cell shaded cartoon piece that features a lot of football tricks and fancy dance moves. Our animators had a blast when choreographing the dances.
