Making of Volkswagen “Born Confident” with MPC

Born with a full head of horns and lots of attitude, this little black ram doesn’t back down for anyone except Volkswagen’s new T-Roc SUV.

Carsten Keller, MPC 3D creative director: “We needed to create a baby ram with life-like proportions, staying true to physical anatomy.

“To make him feel real, subtlety was key. Push the animation and acting too hard, and you instantly lose believability – the emotion and storytelling in “Born Confident” comes from our little hero’s elegant and confident posing, with no need for buffed-up, oversized muscles.”
