• The challenge for this advert was to create a stop frame animation shot in one continuous take. Its surreal landscape was mostly handmade and involved building a mammoth set that takes the viewer through cardboard factories, across rivers of coloured paper, on a journey from urban cityscape to rolling countryside and back -again.
• -
• Along the way digital TV’s ‘red button’ options delivered the advert’s interactive elements, in the form of graphic signposts flagging up Orange offers and information.

FlatHat is made from 2.5mm, high-grade, 100% natural, wool felt, and available in a variety of colours. Its clever lattice cut design means it can be folded, rolled or stuffed in a pocket when not worn, without being crushed and damaged. A summer version made from 1.5mm high-grade wool felt is also available, while a special rubber cork version has gone into production too.
