We were hired to generate landscapes and a planet made from people in two US television commercials for Toyota's Prius.

The landscapes were created using proprietary particle scripts to distribute and control "cards", each with a short video clip on them, over the 3D models of the terrain to build elements of a world made from people. These same scripts were used to drive actions such the people turning from "snow" into "grass" as the Prius drives along through this fantastical landscape.
