When Verizon decided to do a set of sci-fi spots that featured a robot and other practical effects, we jumped right in.

The Most Badass Robot of All

Of the many, many robots we’ve built over the years, the one we built for Verizon’s "Droid Does" launch is the most badass of all. We think he’s so badass he now maintains permanent residence at our studio, keeping us all in line.

A marvel of motion, this robot has articulation doors that open up his chest so that the hero product can come spiraling out in a beautiful, repeatable and fluid motion. While the action itself is impressive, what’s really unique is that we rigged it to do so without an expensive motion control system. In addition to the badass robot, we fabricated an array of practical effects for the commercials, including some that showed the competitor’s phone melting and blasting out.
