Production I.G. picked up an award in the “cel animation” category at the recent “London International Advertising Awards” for Kazuto Nakazawa’s animated advert “Asience: Hairy Tale (stream)” (animated for “Asience” shampoo).
Nakazawa’s worked on a number of high-profile projects over the years, most notably the animated sequence in Kill Bill, but also character design and chief animation for Samurai Champloo. “Asience: Hairy Tale” echoes his previous short; the hyper-stylized gothic horror “Comedy” (the story of which is set in Ireland).
