Baskets

In this hyperbolic launch teaser, Chip Baskets goes super sonic to battle the Machiavellian train bearing down on the family rodeo.

Baskets in an American comedy series co-created by Louis C.K., Zach Galifianakis and Jonathan Kriesel. FX approached oddfellows to create a retro-futurism inspired launch film announcing the 4th installment of the show.

We broke out the paint brushes and explored a range of styles to match the unique tonality of the show. Ultimately landing on a seamless blend of 2D, 3D and hand painted goodness.
