Superfad: Honda “Crave” Series

Superfad flexed their 3D muscles in a big way with their series of six spots for Honda’s CR-V, all themed around different “cravings.” (Well, all except the Elvis oneâ€â€?I don’t really get that one, honestly.)

“Beach” | “Chocolate” | “Coffee” | “Elvis” | “Popcorn” | “Snow”

The spots are entirely CG and sport some nice, understated sound design. The logo animations are full of personality without detracting from the overall cleanliness of the design work. Hooray for Honda and agency Rubin Postaer for opting to create crisp, intelligent spots that engage viewers with subtlety instead of submission.

I think in terms of realism, the car was done well enough. The point here is not convey realism, but a fun association with something. And in some of these spots(the popcorn one especially) that was done pretty well. I agree that the elvis spot is lacking.

In the Elvis one, the car is dancing with its wheels . . . but I agree, it’s the weakest link in that campaign, a campaign breaker, actually.

That girl in the beach spot doesn’t look like she’s CG.
Other than that those spots are simple and well done.
