Top Story: ‘The Wild Robot’ And ‘Arcane’ Lead 52nd Annie Award Nominations

“22squared and Lobo partnered to create a short film with a bold premisse: Let’s be honest about who our client was to highlight the power of the change for a good cause. Two decades ago Interface, a leading carpet tile design and fabrication company, started to change its polluting manufacturing practices. In 2006 they announced their goal to become a zero impact operation by 2020. Despite having won awards and recognition from several specialized institutions, Interface’s history haven’t been told to the large public, until now.”

Directed by Guilherme Marcondes for Brazilian studio Lobo. Credit and concept art below. More info and concept art at Lobo’s web site.
