Mad Ruffian's 10 VFX Ads They Wish They'd Made
We proudly present Mad Ruffian’s top 10 VFX Ads we Wish We’d Made. They’re not in order of favourites, we love them all for different reasons, and we think they’re all visual effects masterpieces in their own way. Absolute respect to the VFX companies and directors who made them. And, though there have been countless ads that feature great animation or VFX and the quality just gets more and more impressive every year, each of these has a bit of something #MadRuffian about it and boy, do we wish we’d made them.
