At the end of 2011, Red Bull ran a competition for three different categories (stop-monition, drawn animation, and CGI computer-generated) of video creatives, and the criteria was to feature the Red Bull can. I wrote about this and shared my favourites here: 'Red Bull' Canimation Competition Creative Entries
The winners have been announced, and the results are below. I am happy that three of my favourite entries made it into the winner list. Some of the categories would have been difficult to judge as there were many wonderful entries.
Winners of Stop-Motion Category:
Student - Bill Hennessey: http://vimeo.com/32179301 (The video features a squirrel that skateboards after taking 'Red Bull'.)
Non-Student - Chris Butcher: http://vimeo.com/32105591 (This was one of my favourites featuring the morphing can.)
Winners of the CGI Category:
Student - Scott Waddington: http://vimeo.com/32087852 (The video features a chicken and a can of Red Bull.)
