Shippam's Real Chicken


This short advert, made using a rostrum camera, consists of two shots starting with a succulent roast chicken on a serving plate. Graphics appear which form the shape of a Shippam's paste pot which quickly becomes the real thing. The camera zooms in to a close-up of the label which also features the company's trademark.
