South African team Chocolate Tribe and Greg Gray partner to create Super Bowl ad for Pringles
We go behind the VFX scenes with Chocolate Tribe’s Rob van den Bragt and Tiaan Franken for a peek at how they tackled the astronomical task of creating a commercial for the most coveted advertising stage in the world, the Super Bowl.
